Red Hat :: Installing Package Not In DVD Using Kickstart
Mar 21, 2010
I am trying to install jdk automatically using kickstart. I have added jdk-6u13-linux-i586.rpm to Server dir (where all rpms exist) and add jdk to %packages section. It always complain jdk is missing. I tried it also with another rpms which are not in the RedHat DVD and it always complatin the the package is missing.
I'm updating a working kickstart configuration.Got a good iso from it the last time used.I simply want to add 2 rpms to the installation. So I added the rpms (libganglia & libconfuse) into the ../Server directory. I added those two names to the %packages section in the .cfg file. And I added those two names into two new appropriate lines in the ../Server/repodata/comps.xml file.
I ran "createrepo -g repodata/comps.xml ." from the ../Server (rpms) directory. I then ran my "mkisofs" without issue, and used the resulting .iso. The message I get during installation is "You have specified the package 'libganglia' should be installed. This package does not exist. Would you like to continue or abort your installation?". I've tried several variations of the createrepo command.
I am using RHEL5 and in this package selection opetion is disabled in system-config-kickstart. Is there any option to enable it? if yes please tell me how?, my yum is working absolutely file , without any problem
I have a problem when installing this package through synaptic package manager. this is :
libpng12-dev the error is: W: Failed to fetch http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/po...tu2.1_i386.deb 404 Not Found [IP: 91.189.92.167 80] my distribution is ubuntu 10.4.
I'm experiencing a strange behavior from apt on my Debian 4 etch installation.
Sometime ago I installed XMailServer on it, and so far so good, it is working quite fine and no issue at all here. However since this installation apt got crazy and now each time I install something else it goes and installs xmail again. This creates the issue that everytime I add or remove a package xmail gets unconfigured and I've to delete spool and recreate the domains.
Sort of:
apt-get install somePackage ....regular messages if something else is needed to be downloaded... then installs xmailserver again for no reason at all giving a whole load of "file already exists" errors while rewrite xmail's config.
Already tried apt-get clean, apt-get autoclean, purge/remove -> reinstall sequence, delete the .deb package from apt's cache. But still no luck, apt insists into reinstall it everytime I want to install anything else.
I use RHEL 3 , but do not have installed the package for rcp , so now can not receive file via rcp , can advise what package that I need to install for using rcp ?
When I use YUM to install ICAClient it ends with the following message "Package ICAClient-11.100-1.i386.rpm is not signed" (see the code below). However, when using browser (Nautilus) to start installation of the same ICAClient-11.100-1.i386.rpm it completes with success (see the image below).
This happens when installing with YUM from the CLI:
A while ago (not sure exactly when) my Synaptic Package Manager, Update Manager, Ubuntu Software Center and apt-get install have not been working. When I try to do apt-get install I get this error
There is something wrong with the nvidia driver installation, but i dont know what is it exactly or how to fix it, when i try to install anything i get this errorinstallArchives() failed: Selecting previously deselected package gnomeradio.

OS: Debian testing Is it possible to instruct apt-get to install only some of the files in a package?.Here is the specific problem I'm facing: I have installed latex using the latex installer from CTAN. Now I'd like to install lyx but when apt-get install lyx reports it will install all the deb latex packages (it seems to be unaware latex is already installed). can I instruct apt-get to install only the lyx files with the extra 300MB or so of latex?.
I was using a 3g iPod nano which was supported by my flavor of Ubuntu . However, recently I have acquired a 4g iPod Touch and to my dismay, it is not supported on my OS. After doing some research, I discovered that Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx supports all the newer generation Apple products, including my 4g iPod Touch. Is there anyway I can install this package without reformatting my computer COMPLETELY over again? Are there any easier ways to be able to sync my ipod with my computer?
I mean like, what does it do differently from just installing something from source? Check to make sure you have the required dependencies before compiling the .tgz package? something else?
I can use KRPMview or midnight commander to see what's in an RPM, fine. I might want to inspect a file inside an RPM or actually install some of its files but this latter might upset already installed files. Or, it is so dependent on something else being previously installed. Therefore I need to install it elsewhere, take a look at he file content and/or copy, it to where I want.
There are options: --badreloc --prefix --relocate --nodeps --ignoreos --force
Some are mutually exclusive but the result is it still tells me - package not relocatable. Is there any other magic incantation or do I need to do some time-consuming backup, run the RPM install and any deps hell, do my intended thing, then another time-consuming restore? Or maybe set up a partition with a suitable suse version and just run the RPM there and then copy over?
I have minimal open suse installed as a server and now i would like to install some packages with zypper and it always download some packages related to X11 and gnome but I want to ignore that.Is it possible some how that I can define a USE flag for that like -X -gnome?
I know it exists for Jaunty, but not Karmic. My question is just simply, how can I download this package, and can I just use Synaptic to install it without any problems? Any detailed documentation about installing "obsolete" packages and their dependencies? Perhaps is there some way to get my system to emulate Jaunty, I can install the package, then go back to Karmic?
for some reason my system crashed while installing a package. Now I get this error every time I install/remove a package. I have tried re-installing, removing, forcing options, 'dpkg --configure -a', dpkg-reconfigure. Nothing has worked.
Initially the sound was working fine in my ubuntu 10.04 lucid. Headphone jack was not working. I downloaded and installed following packages in order to upgrade alsa. alsa-driver-1.0.15rc3.tar.bz2 alsa-firmware-1.0.15rc1.tar.bz2 alsa-lib-1.0.15rc3.tar.bz2 alsa-utils-1.0.15rc1.tar.bz2 Now there is no sound. Whole system is fried. I don't know what happened.
This is on a cloud instance of maverick 64bit.In using cloud init to install a package (also does not work manually) I receive the following error.issuing an update with --fix-missing also does not work. I do notice, however this is trying to hit ec2.archive. For iperf I don't know that it needs to be ec2 specific. To my knowledge this worked a few weeks ago. Also, where it is easy enough on a Desktop version of maverick to simply switch sources for the upgrades/updates I have not found how to specify a new url (i.e. Duke University vs. MIT) The repositories I am happy with just the location of the repositories.On this particular cloud image is it even safe to leave ec2 as it is a specialized stripped down image.
I am using ubuntu for a month. Yesterday i tried to upgrade it from 9.10 to 10.0. Then i had to shut down the pc for electricity failure. After that ubuntu came into halt in boot time and something like recovery shell came. It advised me to use "fsck" and i did that. All were again fine (Except some icon goes from left to right ). Then today i was trying to install "Virtuabox" and it says i need to remove "devicekit-power" package. i did it with synaptic package manager ( with my newbie wisdom , didn't knew it would crample my system ). Then the Empathy gone, shut down button gone ). I then installed some lost package
but ubuntu-desktop package is not installing. Whenever i try it says to fix broken package and i tried the option in synaptic, but no luck. also tried in recovery mode to fix broken package but it says the same. now i got the empathy and the green sign back ( after installing those 3 package ) but not like it was ( they are now separated , and uglier ). Same problem installing devicekit-power package. it says it is not in repository.
1. Did the 10.0 failure upgrade was behind this thing?
2. Any help installing Virtuabox? it first installs fine ( downloaded deb package ). then it tries to download some extra packages and always fails to download them. tried in command shell as instructed in its website and also treid in ubuntu soft centre but no luck.
3. Is there any way i can install the missing ubuntu-desktop and devicekit thing?
4. Would be very glad if someone tell me about a linux soft that protect my system from my wild exploration and destruction
Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a non-standard prefix.
Alternatively, you may set the environment variables BASE_DEPENDENCIES_CFLAGS and BASE_DEPENDENCIES_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config. See the pkg-config man page for more details.
How/where can I find this package. I tried the usual apt-get to no avail.
I'm trying to install lsyncd 2.0 and I am having troubles... Apparently when I do a
Code:
./configure
I get this error
Code:
checking for LUA... no checking for LUA... no checking for LUA... no checking for LUA... configure: error: Package requirements (lua >= 5.1.3) were not met: No package 'lua' found
Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a non-standard prefix. Alternatively, you may set the environment variables LUA_CFLAGS and LUA_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config. See the pkg-config man page for more details.I know for a fact I have LUA installed.
I even added the location of the LUA binary to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable but it's still throwing me this error.
Code:
alex@Onyx:~/Downloads/lsyncd-2.0.0$ $PKG_CONFIG_PATH bash: :/usr/bin/lua: No such file or directory
EDIT: For some reason, when I built and installed LUA, the "lua.pc" file was not copied over. So I copied the "lua.pc" over to my /usr/lib/pkgconfig/ folder and the ran the ./configure again. This time it worked.
am creating a perl third party package and using in my other program. If i install the package with standard 4 commands ie.,
1)perl Makefile.PL 2)make 3)make test 4)make install
package has not installed properly. If i try to copy the package to the threads generated by perl -V command, then am able to get install the package, but i want to install the package by the standard 4 commands. I am using 36 bits OS , perl version is v5.8.5 and OS am using is "Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 4 (Nahant Update 6)".
For some of them I used apt-get ( yes I had to install apt first) and the other, I used yum. But when I run ./configure in libtorrent-0.12.4 directory, I get this error at the end of it's process: checking pkg-config is at least version 0.9.0... yes checking for OPENSSL... configure: error: Package requirements (openssl) were not met: No package 'openssl' found Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a non-standard prefix. Alternatively, you may set the environment variables OPENSSL_CFLAGS and OPENSSL_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config. See the pkg-config man page for more details. What should I do to install it?
