I don't know why I can't get listed the installed and not installed packages in the "Add and Remove Software" utility in Fedora 11 with KDE Desktop. I have already used it with no problems, but for some reasons I had to reinstall the system, and I got this problem since then. So, I can't remove packages because the list is empty (picture attached), and for the same reason I can't add new sofware from the Installation DVD.
View 7 Replies View RelatedWhile trying to install a package using gpk-application ("Add/Remove Software" under System Tools), I accidentally checked the "Do not show this message again" checkbox, and now gpk-application does not list the package dependencies anymore.
I tried to go back to listing the dependencies, however, I could not find a way to do it. How do I revert to the default behavior, i.e., having gpk-application listing the dependencies again?
I get the following error message when I try to access all of the sections in Add/Remove Sofware;
"No package cache is available. The package list needs to be rebuilt. This should have been done by the backend automatically

He suggests adding an echo line to the actionban line in order to create or add to a file that will contain a list of all the IP's that fail2ban has banned.....but it doesn't seem to generate any output. .....here is the command.....
actionban = iptables -I fail2ban- 1 -s -j DROP
echo >> /etc/shitlist
I never get any IP's in the file so the echo part does not seem to work.

View 5 Replies View RelatedFor a project I have had to migrate from FreeBSD to Linux and I have decided to choose Debian because I have had good experiences with it.However, since my main development machines are completely offline I have run into a little bit of trouble.Is there a way to specify a .deb package and get a tool to recursively list (and fetch) all dependency packages that are not included in the base install and put them in a folder?
I do not like to be tied to the internet (Never a good idea) and so this would save me a heap of trouble (and journeys to an online PC)Once I have these folders containing packages, then I can simple cd into one of them, dpkg -i the relevent .deb and not have to rely on the DVDs or worry about connecting to an online repositoryLife will be good!Suffice to say FreeBSD can do this well so I strongly believe that Debian will be able to aswell but since it is not normally done, I havn't found much on google about it
I am able to create a solaris package and hpux package from directory structure in a specific format rather than spec file but the same i can not do on linux . is there any way to do that . basically i can create the solaris package using command pkgtrans -s "source loc" "package location" all .we do not need any specfile here rather we create the package from the filesystem objects in a proper directory structures. again pkgadd -d option will install the datastream from a package but i did not find the same on linux.
View 1 Replies View Relatedwhether the command-line tool "mysql" comes with mysql-server or mysql-client (I installed both at once, so I have no idea). It occurs to me that this is a good opportunity to learn more about linux package management.
I've tried saying "dpkg -L mysql-server", but it only lists the files in /usr/share/docs files for some reason. I'm sure there's got to be files elsewhere. Am I way off base?
I'm new to GNU/Linux and recently installed Edubuntu 10.10 beta on a workplace computer. I'm currently a technology intern at a public school and want to install Edubuntu on some older computers here.

Edit 2: I am using a .pac file for the proxy.

View 4 Replies View RelatedFor some odd reason in wheezy it's not downloading the packages in the 'all' architecture, this leads to interesting issues when it comes to things like installing chromium and other packages that aren't built for one particular architecture. I've only noticed this in wheezy, and i'm not sure if this is normal. If there is any easy way to fix this, I'd be more than happy to hear.When i try to do an apt-get update, it only downloads from amd64 and not all. I've tried the mit mirror, and also the one shown there or well the default one but it still doesn't seem to be working right.
