OpenSUSE :: Access Package Management Failed / Solve This?
Feb 10, 2010
I finally convinced my wife to remove Windows from her Acer Aspire 5680 and instead to use OpenSuse, but unfortunately I am having some major trouble for no reason.
You see as soon as I installed the OS, I tried to add some new programs, like Thunderbird, etc but I keep getting an Accessing the Package Management failed error message. It says that it can't continue because process 9172 is blocking it. But I opened the System Monitor and can't find the **** 9172! My OpenSuse installation doesn't have this problem.

I just upgraded from wheezy 7.2.0 to jessie 8.2.0 . I am still running sys v init.
I cannot run bluetooth because bluetoothd dies with the error "Failed to access management interface"
Code: Select allllewelly@zorthluthik:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/bluetooth start
Starting bluetooth: bluetoothd.
llewelly@zorthluthik:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/bluetooth status
bluetooth is not running ... failed!
llewelly@zorthluthik:~$ sudo /usr/lib/bluetooth/bluetoothd -n
bluetoothd[3736]: Bluetooth daemon 5.23
[Code] ....
All of the above worked fine before I upgraded.
Here is the bluetooth device section from lsusb -v :
Code: Select allBus 001 Device 003: ID 8087:07da Intel Corp.
Device Descriptor:
 bLength        18

System management is locked by the application with pid 3787 (/usr/sbin/packagekitd).
Close this application before trying again.
How do I do this?

I might switch to OpenSUSE from Debian, but I have my doubts still about package management with OpenSUSE. I'm glad to see that zypper now has the --clean-deps option. Is there a YAST GUI for this as well? I don't like the command line very much. Additionally, is there any way to remove a package with all its config files? In Debian with the Synaptic front end, you can right click on package and click "remove" and it will just uninstall the package but leave its configuration files intact.
But if you select "Completely Remove" it will remove all the configuration files so that if you later install the package again it will use the default settings once again. Is there any way to do this with OpenSUSE? Again, I'd prefer a GUI. Does 11.3 offer Delta RPM updates, and are there many repos that offer delta RPMs? Does Zypper cache downloaded packages by default? And using the YAST package management GUI are packages caches by default? If so, where? Does the YAST GUI try to refresh the package cache all the time, or can I do it manually?

I'm having trouble understanding the principles behind OpenSuse package and repository management. Here is a concrete example: I want to install the 32bit version of glibc. (using zypper) Naturally I write 'wp glibc' to see what's available. Output:
[Code]....
I'm looking for the (32bit) tokyocabinet library. I go through all the hoops like I did in the first example. Nothing shows up! How is that possible? Does opensuse really not have this library in any repository? Does that mean I have to install from source? How can I be sure that zypper searches through all repositories?

Using 11.0 64bit OpenSuse. I was updating this workstation. Everything was working good. I rebooted from the last set of updates and now I am trying to access the Package Manager from yast, but it is not working now. It starts up, then it goes to an "Initializing", then a popup says that "Accessing the Package Manager Failed". It also notes that something else is using the package manager, then gives me choice to either continue or retry.

I just installed Ubuntu 10.04 and everything was working fine until I tried to update. Now I can't get any packages, update, or even get into a package manager. All of these give me the same error. 'E:Malformed line 48 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list (dist parse), E:The list of sources could not be read.' I looked into what this was and found the source list but have no clue what to change.code...

I'm looking to upgrade a few packages but noticed that the version available through Yum isn't necessarily the most up-to-date version as per the package website. One such example is Mysql:
[root@localhost ~]# yum info mysql-server
Loading "installonlyn" plugin
Setting up repositories
[code]....
If you look on the mysql website, the latest community edition is 5.1.50. I suspect the answer might be to do a distribution upgrade via media (i.e.: burn a CD) however was wondering if there's any ways around that?

I am trying to backup my webmin configuration but I'm getting this error message:
Restore failed : Incorrect Webmin PID 31266
I am fairly inexperienced as far as Linux is concerned, so if anybody could tell me how I could solve this.

I am new to Debian but a long term user of various other Linux distros, most commonly Ubuntu at home and Xubuntu for my old work computer. I tried Debian 6 LXDE the other day on the older PC, from a live LXF disc. It picked up all my hardware automatically and was so stable (more so than the Xubuntu LXDE distro on the HD) that I decided to install it.
Now that it is on the HD it is still very stable, but I am struggling with package management and installing "stuff".
I am fairly comfortable with the CLI and have managed to get myself into the sudoers group, install grub and add the old Xubuntu to grub manually (I was not impressed that Debian didn't pick up the other two distros on the machine, even after a grub install and update grub and all the other tricks I could think of).
Anyway, back to package mngt:
First, why is there no pdf viewer/reader by default? How do you start building if you can't read the many helpful articles in pdf?
But more annoying, when I try to install pdfedit, epdfview, evince, okular, pdf-viewer, osso-pdf-viewer or kpdf (at least one of which MUST work in Debian LXDE) using "apt-get install" or "aptitude install", as root or as sudo in the Terminal, why do I get "Couldn't find any package whose name or description matched" "Couldn't find package" or "Unable to locate package"? I can't even install synaptic to help!
Then I found that my sources.lst only listed the install CD as a repository (how stupid is that?) so added some repositories to it (eg deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian stable main contrib non-free) and did a sudo apt-get update. And apt STILL can't find anything.
And what is that Debian Installer in the >Menu>System Tools? It asks for a password then nothing opens that I can detect. Is there a GUI for package mngt?

I've gone though the system purging/removing what I don't require on my Fedora install using the graphical tool in gnome 3. I then used package-cleanup --leaves to clean up some cruft left behind. yum list installed shows I still have 1031 packages installed, which is about 400 more than similar setups I used to have on Debian, and truthfully on Debian I have more stuff installed that I've still got to install here (gimp, nvidia drivers, etc).
I see a buch of stuff in yum list installed I don't need, so I can use yum remove foo to cleanup some more, but I'm wondering if there's another graphical interface or perhaps and advacned option in the add/remove software application I've been using thus far.

I JUST got back on my laptop now that I have my new A/C adapter, and guess what? The package management system is broken! Which sucks, because I have quite a bit of updates to install.
Here's the details provided by Synaptic when installing the new version of AWN:

I have been playing around with quickly, and installed the package for my application. The install failed. Worse, none of my package managers can install anything anymore - I get the error
Code:
E: The package swift needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it. This seems to be the same problem as here [URL] But I cannot fix it in the same way as there is no online package for me to reinstall. When I try to install the .deb I get a message that it is either corrupted or the permissions are wrong.

At some point, the install process asks whether to test internet access. I replied Yes, and the test failed. Retries also failed, leading me to conclude, mistakenly, that the ethernet card was not supported by SuSE 11.2. Finally I elected to skip the test, resigned to the loss of internet access. The install program then proceeded to access online repositories without difficulty, and I had no further difficulty accessing the internet. So why the misleading test result?

I've come from Fedora and am trying out Arch Linux. I was wondering if the packager 'pacman' contains funcionality like that provided by 'yum whatprovides': provides or whatprovides Is used to find out which package provides some feature or file. Just use a specific name or a file- glob-syntax wildcards to list the packages available or installed that provide that feature or file.

Pretty much self explanatory:This morning I went into the update manager, and found a bunch of RPM package-management stuff such as rpm, alien, compiling tools, etc. What is up with this?I suspect they are setting the scenery for some big press release saying they now support RPM packages in Ubuntu too. Any ideas? (or better, inside info from someone who knows)

I'm running 11.2 KDE 4.3.5, recently every time I've tried to use the Updater Applet I get this error after choosing to install an update: PackageKit Error internal-error: Installation aborted by user. Then I run YaST to try to manually install the update and get the following error:
Subprocess failed. Error: RPM failed: error: package kwin-4.3.5-0.2.1.i586 is not installed. Really unsure how to fix this but it's only blocking updates/patches, I can download new programs fine.
