i am totally newbie in linux.how to install tar.bz2?? please give me crystal clear command to open this file because a lot of threads regarding to this matter really crack my mind.
I am running Mandriva Linux 2010.2 KDE on my Dell Dimension 5150 desktop. Using the software manager, I tried selecting the gcc4.2-c++ package for the compiler but I get the message:
I understand that I can specify nogpgcheck on the command line, or gpgcheck=0 in the repo file, but if I want to do it "right" how would I get the public key? And where should I have looked to find this without bothering the group? I looked in man yum and don't seem to find it.
i am trying to install in my puppy 4 the gxine 0.5.903i already have downloaded it to My-Documents folder.However, each time that i try to install it using the package manager the file does'nt foundedThis is my firt time using Linux and i really like puppy
I had upgraded from Samba to Samba 3x awhile ago. Which I found out that I didn't need to do because I have to update now 9 large patch releases which I have to install in order. Starting with the first one and I'm having Samba dependencies problems now. The patch releases to install are older than what's currently installed. Hopefully, once I get the conflicts resolved the rest should fall in line.
I want to install CmapTools in my desktop, which runs v.10.04. I have downloaded the .bin file from their site.Is there a way to install it using Synaptic Package Manager?
I originally attempted to compile and install xmonad package by package, and the end result was this:
Code: $ xmonad /home/adx/.xmonad/xmonad-x86_64-linux: executeFile: does not exist (No such file or directory) X Error of failed request: BadAccess (attempt to access private resource denied) Major opcode of failed request: 2 (X_ChangeWindowAttributes) Serial number of failed request: 7 Current serial number in output stream: 8 I figured I left out a flag on the make file or something, so I tried the slackbuild packages next; however, the same error was present at launch.
Where is the best path to install all files of package when compiling?
For example - I want to install ProFTPd, so there's an option
--prefix=/usr/local/proftpd
, which means, that all files after compilation (including binary and configuration files) will be stored here. As you know, all packages, which are installed via package system (like zypper on SuSE or apt on Ubuntu) usually stores its configuration files in /etc/ and binary files in /sbin/ and also stores a link in my $PATH, so i can run in just by typing proftpd (without /sbin).
The huge advantage of packages installed via package system, i think, is easy uninstall process. I'd like to be able to uninstall compiled packages also easy.
I think i could be able to create some batch file, which I'll be able to use like this:
uninstall --package=proftpd
And my script will find all proftpd files in usuall paths (/etc, /sbin) and remove it using rm.
Is there any best practices, where to store all these files, or are there any (dis)advantages of my first example (--prefix=/usr/local/proftpd)?
I really don't think, that it's nice to have 2 paths with configuration files and binary files, but maybe I'm misunderstanding the basic principals of Linux... :-)
I have jdk.rpm.bin package. When I run the command ./jdk.rpm.bin it extracts and automatically installs the package. I want to extract rpm package only and to install rpm myself not automatically.

Edit: The problematic packages are sun-java6* . I installed sun-java6-jdk from oracle's web page and installed other ones using APT.
I am working on a project that sets up packages on the cloud.
For example, If i want to setup Drupal, i need seperate machines to maintain separate tasks, like mysql in one machine(cloud instance/node 1), apache server in another machine(cloud instance/node 2), etc.
So if drupal.rpm has dependencies apache.rpm(has deps too) and mysql.rpm(has deps too)
Is it possible in rpm package manager(yum) to handle such customizations & above requirement?
I have been trying to install the NumPy package for Python on to my home directory, as I run as part of a server and do not have permissions to install new packages in the Linux server.
I have set up Python in my home directory, and have configured ~/.bash_profile to find my local Python (which works, confirmed by testing).
However, when I attempt to install the NumPy package, I get the message error: could not create '/usr/local/lib/python2.6': Permission denied Which I find strange because I do not see why it would need to install files anywhere except my local Python directory.
how I might be able to specify the directory in which files are installed?
I am trying to install Adobe Flash Player on my operating system, my vendor is Red Hat. Then, when I click the Dump File of where I archived the adobe flash player, it states "No Packages were given for installation".So Now it does not want to run itself on the kernel, but I also noticed that there is a "Adobe v10 Bug" right next to where the rpm package was archived. Is there something I might have overlooked?

I wanted to install this package to convert one Unix book into pdf. Since I have not set up the internet in the debian, I download the .deb files in winxp and transfer these files to my pen drive and then access it in the Debian. So I got all the 'depends' packages for the chm2pdf from the Debian Packages site and tried to install. Console was still asking for more dependencies. If I have got all the 'depends' packages which are required for chm2pdf, then why does it give problems ?
I'm using a new Distro and after installing it and randomly searching for help on websites on how to install a .Deb file using dpkg at the konsole/terminal it says Bash : dpkg: Command not found . how is this possible ? Do I have to know about all the packages in the package manager to install this. slight difference for me ... knowing what I have and knowing if I need Apr93-323? (whatever) installed first or not ? The only thing I know is that I have the Iso image installed ... which is my linux distro . Where to go from here? because I usually go to a website site to find Software to install ...if I need it .back to the basics
