Fedora Networking :: Unable To Install Many Packages Off The Web?
May 6, 2011
I installed Fedora fc14.i686 in a VMware player. I have been able to install many packages off the web.
First of all, I'm having this issue: I am having trouble with GIT, it keeps timing out on me. github.com[0: 207.97.227.239]: errno=Connection timed out fatal: unable to connect a socket (Connection timed out). This is happening over a 24hr period so I think its something on my end.
Also, my apache directory is not visible on my local LAN to other machines. I can browse in Fedora, however. Even the machine hosting the VM can't see my var/www/http directory. I set permissions but I have a feeling its a network issue somwhere. BTW, I can ping the Fedora VM (192.168.0.17) from other machines.

I installed natty finally on my laptop (T410 Lenovo) via an upgrade from maverick. I tested maverick thoroughly first, since I had to perform the upgrade over the network, due to issues with natty booting from DVD. The upgrade went fine to natty, the system came up and I was able to get on locally and install other packages, though I did notice from time to time a lag in network performance. I installed VNC server and started it, as well as other network related services. However, I am noticing a definite issue with the network support and I suspect the natty kernel. The configuration looks sound, ifconfig, netstat and other functions appear to display the correct information, at least what I had with maverick (which worked).
Has anyone else seen issues with natty and networking? The glass looks okay, though I am using xfce and frankly there is nothing new there to really force me to upgrade, its just that this is a new LT and if I can cold install natty right now, it will save me an upgrade later.
System configuration (lshw) is below, ipaddress removed to protect the guilty..:

For about the last 24 hours I have been unable to install any packages with APT. A connection to ftp3.nrc.ca can never be established.
1) Is this a problem on my end, or is this mirror down?
2) Is there a way for me to (temporarily) change mirror?

Running 11.3 on an Acer aspire 2920 laptop. OS is up and running as are other applications. I have been trying to install a .wmv player (for CBT), (kaffeine, MPlayer, VLC) and also crossover for linux. In all cases I get "Installation of package xxxxx rpm failed".
The system downloads without problem but the issue appears to be on the actual installation side.

I have been using linux for about a year and have run into a new problem I am unable to solve. It started when I attempted to install some packages I needed to get VirtualBox to run VMs. I am on Jessie.
I am unable to install various packages, including gedit, aptitude etc. I do not think it is a problem with my sources.list as my laptop has the same sources.list and I am not encountering the same problems on it. Packages will not install any dependencies. -f install isn't doing anything for me.
My sources.list...
deb [arch=amd64,i386] http://ftp.ca.debian.org/debian/ jessie main contrib non-free
deb-src [arch=amd64,i386] http://ftp.ca.debian.org/debian/ jessie main contrib non-free
deb http://ftp.ca.debian.org/debian/ jessie-updates main contrib non-free
deb-src http://ftp.ca.debian.org/debian/ jessie-updates main contrib non-free
[Code] ....
I tried to check for held packages with
userone@localhost:~$ dpkg --get-selections | grep hold
But get nothing.
sudo apt-get install -y

I am not able to install any package using software manager. I make sure that I remain online throughout the process. When I select any software package to install, a window appears that asks for the authentication code. After entering the code, no progress(in any form) takes place and the dialog box remains idle. The same thing happened when I tried to install cheese, netbeans, gcc, eclipse, build-essential, g++, codeblocks and many other such software packages. I would like to state that this problem is persisting from past two days. Earlier I was able to install software packages using software manager and I had already installed about 10 software packages before this problem actually came into notice.

I have a brand new Slackware 13.1 x64 installation, and I'm having problems with slapt-get.
I'm unable to upgrade existing packages or install new ones. The output in terminal is:
Code:
bash-4.1# slapt-get -i tar
Reading Package Lists... Done
The following NEW packages will be installed:
tar
[Code]....
Worth mentioning also, I managed to install Gnome from [URL] without any problems immediately prior to this error message starting to appear.
I've been using Debian and Ubuntu derivatives for the last couple of years, so I'm comfortable using the terminal and possibly doing some more advanced stuff.

I recently installed Ubuntu 9.10. I was unable to connect to the Internet with Firefox or to download packets using command line or Synaptic Package Manager, or run updates. I disabled IPv6 in Firefox and am now able to browse, but I still cannot connect to repositories, I cannot download packages, I cannot run updates either.

I had installed Ubuntu 9.04 yesterday evening and made a dual boot with windows Vista. After installing the Ubuntu i opened update manager and started the updates and after half hour, some of the updates were done but the sound and multimedia package was not installed. Then i played a song and ubuntu asked me to install 2 packages for that and after i made a confirmation to that, it shows that it is unable to install the package.

I cannot get package installer, either Synaptic, Ubuntu Center, sodo aptitude install or plain double clicking on .deb files I have already downloaded on my PC to work.I get this:dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.When I do(even after a clear)sudo dpkg --configure. Ubuntu goes and tries to mess up with my boot configuration. wtf does installing a package have to do with messing up my lilo? I get this regardless of how I try to install the package and it makes no sense(ok, If I do this graphically, I get the same errors from a widget window)

I did the UPGRADE from Karmic Koala to Lucid, and everything was going well. But now I've been having problems with the UBUNTU UPDATE tool for the last 2 weeks. Every time I try to do an update check on the packages, I get the following message:Failed to fetch http:[url]....Release Unable to find expected entry deb-src/binary-i386/Packages in Meta-index file (malformed Release file?)
Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.I've tried changing the servers to MAIN and others, and still no way to solve it. I've also checked for other posts, but haven't found a solution yet. Here's my SOURCES LIST (gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list)# See http:[url].... for how to upgrade to # newer versions of the distribution.

But ever YUM attempt returns "Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: fedora. Please verify its path and try again"
What am I missing here? does this mean the packages don't exist, or do I need to modify something to make them accessible?

Whenever I do sudo apt-get or use the Ubuntu Software Center, I can't download anything because a message comes up saying "Action requires installation of untrusted packages: The action would require the installation of packages from not authenticated sources." I've been trying to download GIMP and Thunderbird, so... I dunno what the problem is.

I just upgraded from 11.2 to 11.4 and the installation/upgrade worked just perfect. I than followed the instructions in the "New User How To/FAQ", "Multimedia and restricted format" post. I was following the instruction in the 11.4 section. I added the additional repositories as explained. I then was on the section where it talks about going into software management and selecting the "Packman" repository and clicking to "switch systems packages" to the versions in this repository (packman). I than click this link and the "warning" screen appears and I am present with conflict resolution after conflict resolution dialog. It just seems that there are some many conflicts, it just seems wrong and I canceled.
The installation/upgrade appears to have worked just fine. My mail is there, audio and dvd play back worked the first try after the upgrade. I am not clear if this is what I should expect or their is something wrong or if I even need to complete this step for a successfully installation.
