Fedora :: Yum Update Results In Python IndexError?
Jun 17, 2010
I haven't been able to update my system as of late, because yum keeps giving me the same error, everytime I try to run updates/install packages.
Code:
Running Transaction
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/yum", line 29, in <module>
yummain.user_main(sys.argv[1:], exit_code=True)
[Code]....
Running it with -v did not provide any other information regarding this problem. I tried running yum -clean all as well as package-cleanup --dupes and other various forms and rpm -Va --nodeps --nofiledigest but didn't get any output.
Last night software updater notification showed 29 updates. I was building a liveCD image so decided create the image first then install the updates. After the updates were finished, I did a reboot because some packages required it, I logged on successfully, then I shutdown for the night. This morning when I executed the same command used to create the liveCD image, I get the following error.
I've run the command "sudo apt-get update" from terminal, showing no update to do.Then I've run the update manager (System-Administration-Update Manager) and it has shown an update (adobe flash).I thought that "apt-get update" command and update manager were the same... Why do I have different results ? Is something missing in my "sources.list" file ?
Using Debian Jessie 32 bit and Wheezy 32 bit on 2 separate computers.
For the pass few days, received the following message on both computers when doing a aptitude update or apt-get update results in the following error message:
W: Failed to fetch http://security.debian.org/dists/jes...ource/Sources: Hash Sum mismatch W: Failed to fetch http://security.debian.org/dists/jes...i386/Packages: Hash Sum mismatch W: Failed to fetch http://security.debian.org/dists/jes...ranslation-en: Hash Sum mismatch
yesterday I performed an automatic security update suggested by the update manager on my virtualized (with VirtualBox on a Windows 7 host) Ubuntu 10.10 installation.
The update somehow failed and left me with an unbootable system. When I try to boot, I am told that various folders, files, and what not are missing. Then the system drops into a busybox and leaves me with an (initramfs) prompt.
This happens with all kernels I get offered by GRUB, although the error messages are quite different from kernel to kernel.
Well, the short of it is this: I don't have the slightest idea on how to get back to a working system and this site is the final straw I'm willing to grab. A complete disaster like this following an update initiated and executed by the system is unheard of in Windows-land; at least I haven't heard of it, yet, and therefore I am going to abandon Ubuntu and Linux altogeteher, if there is no remedy.
i update my ubuntu(10.10) to 11.04 when it update i got one error that say can not install python or upgrade . the installation finsh and i reboot my pc then ubuntu wont start i try to use
Code: sudo dpkg --configure -a --force-all
my system repair but i still Have problem with python
the real issue is that when i install a package that require python the package wont install and say error:
I was doing a update via Synaptic Package Manager, after it is nearly finished i get that message: Processing triggers for python-central ... Nothing happend so i ctrl-c it and the packet manger shows me no other errors or something else, even all the packages who was marked for upgrade are now upgraded but what about that python message? Do i have to do some check ? or maybe even a repair or even worse re install the OS?
I was assigned to do all the RHEL5 updates. All installed fine including the new kernel except for the updated libX11 and python packages. Does anyone have any suggestions relating to a fix for this?
I'm running xbmc on slackware64-13.1 and it's running great. However a python addon script is giving me trouble. The script contains some utf-8 characters, and by default I get an error because coding isn't declared in the script. I've added
Code: # -*- coding: utf-8 -*- to the scripts and they will work fine, but they are updated very frequently. I've tried messing around with turning on unicode console and such but I'm a bit in the dark on this. Is there a way I can get slack to handle those scripts without having to edit them every time I update?
I'm timing how long it takes to run a command foo. I'm looking to append the results from the time command to a file, and discard the results from the foo command. I tried the following, but it didn't do what I want:
$ time ./foo > /dev/null >> output_from_time_command.txt
Fedora 12 officially uses Python 2.6, good. But the Google AppEngine still goes by Python 2.5 and is showing import errors while i try to start the SDK. Here is the stack trace.
in ubuntu 10.10, I have installed python 2.7. I would like to use apt-get to install packages to this version of python but I haven't been able to figure out howThings I have tried without success:changing the symlink at /usr/bin/python to point to /usr/bin/python2.7 - even after doing this apt-get still installs stuff to python2.6.Set up python2.7 as the primary alternative using update-alternatives - doesn't work
I have installed BIND 9.6.1-P3-RedHat-9.6.1-16.P3.fc12 on Fedora Core 12.
I found out that when i perform i DNS lookup to a some record that is not in the DNS cache or zones(means...recursive) it takes about 4 sec to give the IP results.
I dig a little bit on the internet and found out that it is a known issue but all places says that it is fixed on newer version of BIND (after version 9.3)
I tried:
1. start BIND with -4 argument ( named -4) - the server started but no changes on the delay.
2. disable IPV6 on the server - i tried the articles on the web but still i get IPV6 address.
NVidia FX5200: nvidia-glx-173xxx The problem is that, when I install it, upon rebooting, I get a black screen with one blinking underscore at the top left corner. I somehow managed to get into the console and .. there's something wrong with the video card driver ( no way I could catch it into a picture ).
This was the exact reason why my Fedora CD was laying on the corner for months - I remember having this issue earlier as well.
Is there a way to fix it or at least, recover from a broken video card driver ?
I have searched for a solution to this issue (it's difficult to come up with a minimum number of search terms) and have found at least one person reporting it, but the solution is "check the xorg logfile" - which is entirely too vague, since I don't know what I'm looking for in the file. Here's the issue: The screensaver and/or power management appears to initiate a logout when I try to awaken the computer, whether the screensaver is still functioning or the screen has been turned off. Wither way, I jiggle the mouse, and it appears there is a crash (black screen with spinning mouse circle) resulting in a new login screen, which is entirely disruptive if I have software running, such as recording an audio stream with Audacity.
I'm using KDE with an OpenGL screensaver (antinspect) set to engage after 10 minutes. As for power settings, I am "letting powerdevil manage screen power saving." On the screen tab I have checked "Dim display when idle for more than [10] minutes." I have enabled display power management - standby after 20 minutes and power off after 30 minutes. (There are way too many options under KDE now, and I don't find an explanation of what the various "Profile Management" options do and what the tabs for "Actions" and "CPU and System" do differently from the "Screen" tab. I have an ATI 4650 video adapter. I'm not using a proprietary driver, since I've not been able to determine that there is one that will work with Fedora 14 (or any other Fedora, for that matter). The machine is a recent AMD (dual core 6000+) with 4Gb of memory.
I am having a problem with a simple program I wrote in Fortran (gfortran). This program basically reads a long list of numbers and makes some operations with them. Double precision is used in the variables and functions, and AFAIK everything is in order with the program. The thing is that I accidentally noticed that said program yields different results, and I am talking about integers being different, something noticeable. Apparently the offending chunk of code might be:
Code:
DOUBLE PRECISION FUNCTION tamano (x1,y1,z1) DOUBLE PRECISION x1,y1,z1 tamano=dsqrt((x1)**2+(y1)**2+(z1)**2)
[code]....
One of the involved machines has F15 x86_64 and the other one F15 i686. My first guess is that this has something to do with how Fortran handles precision (which I supposed was the same for 32 and 64 bits). To compile the program I use:
Code:
gfortran --free-form -fno-whole-file program.f90
Is there another option I should pass the compiler to make sure the same precision is used in both cases? Or what can I do here?
I want to enable User Directories in Apache. So in httpd.conf I set:
Code: <IfModule mod_userdir.c> #UserDir enabled // commented out UserDir public_html </IfModule> Directory /home/kees is listed has the following file permissions: drwx--x--x 32 kees kees Directory /home/kees/public_html has the following file permissions: drwxr-xr-x 2 root root
Directory public_html has two files: index.html and index.php, both with file permissions: -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root If I now try to open http://myhost/~kees/index.html (or index.php) in my browser I get a 403 Forbidden error. If I look in my error log I see the following messages if I first try to open the index.html and then the index.php file:
I would prefer to be able to use the rpmfusion nvidia driver instead of the closed driver but when I try it, KDE4 runs fine for a while but then the whole display starts blinking and the cpu % goes to 99% for XMy PC is Fedora 12 x86_64, the video card is a XFX 8800GT[URL]1) installed the kmod-nvidia-190.53-1.fc12.1.x86_64 and dependencies2) blocked nouveau with rdblacklist=nouveau in grub.conf, 3) Ran: setsebool -P allow_execstack on4) fixed the xorg.conf (I had to move my old xorg.conf out of the way and merged my DontZap option back in) 5) rebootedI did not yum remove the nouveau driver,.... didn't seem necessary.My desktop will run for a while but inevitably starts flashing uncontrollably.

i am getting weird results after mounting the /home directory from the server. seems like the client sees the ldapuser and it's directory from the server side.. /home/ldapuser. but it's pulling the "blank" user as it's permission. blank is the actual user on the client side. any ideas why?
server side: [root@localhost ~]# showmount -e Export list for localhost.localdomain:
I have a function definition in a Python 2.x script which take a tuple as one of its arguments, but 2to3 has no answers nor any of my searching on how to represent the same in Python 3.x
