i am using ubuntu before, i dont have problem to backup my updates or my repository by using APTONCD, i switched now to fedora to give it a try. so far its good, my question now is how can i backup my repo, or any similar software like APTONCD.
View 3 RepliesIs there a way to create aptoncd back up on a pen drive? Meaning when I insert a cd created with aptoncd an autorun dialog box appears asking if I want to start the package manager. But when I copy those files to a pen drive the above mentioned autorun feature doesn't work. In short I want my apt cache backup on a pen drive with the autorun feature.

I am trying to kick start learning programming for Android.I try to install Android SDK(1.5, 1.6, and 2.0). However, the emulator keeps crashing with "Segmentation Fault" error. Since Android emulator is a binary only 32 bit executable, I suspect that I am missing some 32 bit library, so I tried to install qemu.However, since my installation is 64 bit, I can only install 64 bit qemu. how to enable 32bit repository on a 64 bit system? I don't know if I should use i586 or i686.

I have a repository which i setup using reprepro. I have some packages on there but it seems that the Ubuntu repositories have a more recent version of those packages. What I want to do is when someone does an apt-get install package-name, it downloads the packages from my repository (in respect of any updated versions in other ubuntu repositories). I would like to achieve this with zero configuration on the client. Ideally what I would want is to be able to just point the sources.list to my repository for all packages, and if the package does not exist in my repository, it then goes to look in the ubuntu repos.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI installed Fedora 10 x86_64 from DVD this weekend. Once the install was completed and I booted into the new install, I ran the Software Update expecting to find and download security updates. However, to my surprise no updates were found! The install DVD was downloaded and burnt to DVD about two weeks ago. Did the installer fetch and install the F10 updates? Or did I mess up my install and/or configuration of F10? I remember when I installed F9 there were a lot of updates found right after the install.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI was wondering on the updater service slowly over time installing packages overtop packman packages.
For example, some multimedia guides mention to switch all packages to a certain repository like packman. At some point afterwards system updates will overwrite these.
I don't fully understand how updates work, however, is it needed or possible to set a rule for which repos are used as a reference for system updates?
Today, shortly after booting my OpenSUSE 11.3 I got this popup. [URL]. I guess it was caused by the Updater Applet when checking the repos for new updates. But what does it mean? Why do I get this now and not when adding the repo. It seems to belong to the filesystems repo and I have indeed added that some time ago (in order to install davfs2). I'm not sure what it means to accept a signature.
Normally with public key infrastructure, you need to accept other's public keys or certificates containing their public keys. And before doing so you need to verify the fingerprint, otherwise the whole procedure is useless, because it might be a fake certificate / man in the middle talking to you. Once you have accepted (trusted) the public key (or a certificate containing it), the system will check signatures for you.
So the question "do you want accept this signature" sounds weird to me. In openSUSE repos I have come across fingerprints many times before. But whenever I have searched google in order to verify the fingerprint I have not received any useful hit. I would have expected that valid keys and their fingerprints are listed on some web site. It appears there are three instances of package signing keys ... but there has not been any answer.

I read a few threads about updating packages in opensuse 11.3, and about switching to a repository, but I still don't understand a few things. On earlier versions of opensuse I was used to set the repository priorities in an order that was convenient for me, and when I did an update, the vendor changed if needed.
Now, vendor change is not allowed by default, and I don't understand the right way to handle repositories, and updates. I found out that in Software Managment there is an option to allow vendor change, but I'm not sure that's the right way.
One of my clients needs a backup of his svn repository. I see that this is possible using svadmin dump command. I see where the location of the source repository is, but I don't see anything in documentation as to where the actual dump file is located. I need to know where the dump file is so I can scp or rsync the file to another server for backup.
