I dont have a internet connection and I want to install VLC. I want to create a local repo for a vlc by downloading all the required packages. I tried to do by downloading all the packages from from VLC repo and create a local repo but failed. Its say this dependency failed and that dependency failed. i tried to manually install each and every dependency but still the problem exists.
I have successfully installed fedora 10 and have rpmfusion in my /home/ directory. i don't know how to edit yum.conf to make yum install from this local repo. i tried once. But when i tried to install vlc i got an error saying some lib****** files are missing and missing dependencies.
Is there any repo where we can find KDE 4.4.3 packages?We have used to get the latest stable KDE at the day of release (that means today for KDE 4.4.3).
leaving the discussion is this logical or not. If I download the whole www folder to my hdd for example: from [URL] to /mnt/repos/oss/ and replace in package manager source [URL] with local one file://mnt/repos/oss will this work as it works from http server? What i want to do is to backup chosen repos before my linux release will be not supported anymore.
I'm new to opensuse, just installed 11.2 and added the packman repository to the software repositories list, and now when i open the yast software manager there are about a dozen selected packages to install, mostly related to multimedia like ffmpeg ,faac,faad and python-beanutils. I didn't want that, why does it happen? and how can i disable it?
Having trouble with the latest updates:PackageKit Error repo-not-available: Failed to download repodata/repomd.xml from http://packman.inode.at/suse/11.3/What repo is needed to correct problem?
Thought I'd post it here because it's more server related than desktop... I have a script that does:
[Code]....
This is used to sync my local development snapshot with the live web server. There has to be a more compact way of doing this? Can I combine some of the rsyncs? Can I make the rsync set or keep the user and group affiliations? Can I exclude .* yet include .htaccess?
For some reason I was trialing a SUSE 11.1 SP1 version for a while and somehow I have NO clue it attempted to change itself to a OpenSUSE 11.1 System. I have no clue what I did, please don't ask Now though I have been successful in turning into an OpenSUSE 11.2 system by changing the repositories to OpenSUSE 11.2, doing a "zypper refresh", "Zypper in Zypper", "Zypper dup -d", "Zypper dup". I also did a repair and refreshed the base packages with an OpenSUSE 11.2 DVD and that seemed to help also. The only thing it seems I can get right is that yast/yast2 give me this error: Download failed: Failed to download ./repo/repoindex.xml from https://nu.novell.com/?cookies=0&cre...NCCcredentials
in yast> software installation how can i configure it to download all packages first then install them (as ubuntu does) rather than downloading each package and kimmediately installing it.
Zypper seems unable to reach the openSUSE servers. I am currently on a network that may or may not block certain traffic, so I don't know if their firewall is in the way. I am able to browse the web without any problems. Sometimes Zypper downloads proceed eventually, but the download is doggone slow. I did this code...
Apparently Zypper has trouble downloading this URI, but if I open it in Chrome it loads perfectly without any problems. How can I find the root of this problem?
I need a newer version of the nvidia drivers for opensuse 11.4. ftp://download.nvidia.com/opensuse/11.4 has version 270.41.06 available, but I found that I need the 270.41.19 version for CUDA 4.0 to run (yes I know CUDA 4.0 does not officially support 11.4, but the same 270.41.06 is available for 11.2 which CUDA 4.0 does support).
Where can I download the files x11-video-nvidiaG02-270.41.06-5.1.nosrc.rpm and nvidia-gfxG02-270.41.06-4.1.nosrc.rpm that these binaries were created from? Once I have the source rpms, I can easily update them to the newer version.
I chose Opensuse as my first distro. The problem is, whenever i invoke any one click installation from any website, (for example vlc), the yast manager is trying to download packages other than vlc which account for about 1.5GB. But I can see that vlc comes to merely 40MB. How to remove those unwanted downloads? and continue to install only what we wanted? I am running opensuse 11.4 with gnome on my notebook
Here at home I have several Ubuntu installations, mine, the kids computers and a couple of laptops. What I'm looking for is a solution or a pointer in the right direction to setup on our local Ubuntu server a sort of cache. Each day each Ubuntu on the network, checks for updates and downloads, and installs. What I'm looking for is a way for one machine to download the update and then the others to download from the local resource.
A sort of local cache to try and minimise everyone downloading straight from the net for pretty much the same updates. I did a emerge cache many years ago when I was using Gentoo, so I'm wondering what I can use/do here with Ubuntu as we are all loving this distro now.
I'm trying to build a local YUM repository for RHEL 6 and am running into an issue. I can get the repo to build, but I cannot get the gruoplist. I can't find a comps.xml file to run the createrepo -g command against, like there is in RHEL 5. Here's what I have so far:
mkdir /yumrepo copied RHEL 6 DVD contents to /yumrepo/rhel6 createrepo /yumrepo/rhel6/Packages (repo builds its lis of 3500+ packages) yum list shows the lsit of all files within the repo correctly.
I run gpk-application, and I receive the error "The group list was invalid." I need to create the group list. But I can't figure out how? Can someone please explain what I'm missing here? Never had this much trouble with 5, but I know a lot has changed with 6.
I have created a local repository to install linux with. (class assignment) Created the following file structure off of /html directory;
/yum/base/13/i386 /yum/updates/13/i386
copied the contents of the packages from my fedora dvd;
mount /dev/cdrom /mnt cd /mnt/Packages cp -v * /var/www/html/yum/base/13/i386 cd / umount /mnt
using rsync against fedora mirror updated the base to have compete set of .rpm packages from the Everything directory. Ran createrepo /var/www/html/yum/base/13/i386 Verified repodata folder was created and the contents are correct, shown below
[Code]....
Boot the PC and start the install using a kickstart file (if you need to see it let me know), all runs fine until it gets to the point of resolving dependency then it errors out - unable to resolve dependency against the repository. May not be the exact phrasing but generally speaking to that effect.
On Debian repo I found virtualbox-ose packages there. What will be the difference in operation/function between their packages and the packages download on virtualbox.org website?
On Fedora repo I found VirtualBox-ose packages there. What will be the difference in operation/function between their packages and the packages download on virtualbox.org website?
I have a local repository, and declare also a remote one, I want to tell to apt-get to install a package from a local repo, if it exists. it seems that it begins from the remote. here is my sources:
deb file:/home/CD1 squeeze main deb file:/home/extra6 / deb http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian squeeze main non-free contrib
What this is doing is simply wiping the remote files within folders(not the folders themselves) and not actually syncing anything down to my local folder(as in no files at all on my /local/folder)
I have a flaky internet connection. So it's important for me to be able to resume partially downloaded files. I would like the YAST software manager to resume downloads of packages where I left off in case of any error. Is this possible?
I am trying to create a local debian repo for 3rd party apps and my own deb's. I have done the following: dpkg-scanpackages debian | gzip -9c> debian/Packages.gz Which did create a file called Packages.gz in the directory However, when I do apt-get update on a client machine I get the following error: W: Failed to fetch [URL] Could not connect to 10.1.1.10:8080 (10.1.1.10). - connect (111: Connection refused) W: Failed to fetch [URL] Unable to connect to 10.1.1.10:8080: W: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
I've created a local repository, my web server (apache) is up and running and my repo is inside it, so I want to install debian using it, in the stage of enter manually the info of the debian mirror I put:
But after this, the installation tell me that it doesn't find the repo, I tried several ways, like: http://192.168.10.1; /repo/; /repo/ binary/ but nothing. What is the correct syntax to use my local repo?
I have a local git repository that pushes to a remote repository. That remote repository moved to a new server. How do I make "git push" and "git pull" push/pull to/from the new repo?
