Software :: Xmonad On Slack13 Dependency Install Errors
Jan 20, 2010
I've been trying to get Xmonad installed and keep running into dependency installation issues. So far, I've used slackbuilds to get everything I need for Xmonad. (I'm pretty new to linux still, but as far as I know, having 64bit slack shouldn't be an issue in running 32bit applications?)
I have-
ghc-6.12.1
haskell-mtl
The main issue I've had thus far is with the Haskell-X11 (1.5.0.0) dependency, I downloaded the slackbuild:
I'm having problems installing things like "Teamspeak" and Netsupport on my 64 bit fedora 14. Now netsupport will run in the terminal window, but won't install.
However the thing that hurts the worst right now, is "Open Office" I open a terminal window, type "su" put in the password and run the installer from a prompt cd'd to the setup file. I get back dependency errors that I don't understand. So I ran the updates and tried again. No luck. I have screenshots of the error messages in case someone could help me decode, they download to full size if they aren't read-able enough.
I just installed Fedora 14 via live CD on my netbook. I am trying to install open office and it's saying I have conflicting files but Open Office is not installed. Yes, this is a nooby question and I'm usually quite good with Linux but this has just baffled me.
I downloaded the latest version of Tellico as a .deb file directly from the Tellico website,since the version available in the repositories no longer works with Amazon. This new version has been available at the web site since November,but has yet to be updated on the Ubuntu sites.Anyway,I tried to install it by double-clicking it in Nautilus. That brought up Package Manager which says that it cannot be installed - "Error: Dependency is not satisfiable". Is there anyway to force either Package Manager or aptitude ot dpkg to install the package along with any dependencies that are required?
I am new to Fedora (using Constantine). I want to like it and it works nicely with on my Thinpad but there is a problem that would make me swith back to Ubuntu/Mint if I don't find a solution to it: I get dependency errors all the time missing librpm.so.0()(64bit) and librpmio.so.0()(64bit)
First I had this problem installing KDEnline and I thought, this program might be to exotic but the same problem stopped the installation of OpenOffice which is very strange. Is installing programs always such difficult for all the different packages like for Open Office? Is Fedora maybe to difficult for me as a intermediate user?
I know I have this problem but how can I fix this dependency error? Code: Dependency Resolution Errors: Package: vlc-core-1.1.8-1.fc15.x86_64 (rpmfusion-free-rawhide) Requires: libstdc++.so.6(GLIBCXX_3.4.15)(64bit)Package: gstreamer-plugins-bad-0.10.21-2.fc15.x86_64 (rpmfusion-free-rawhide) Requires: gstreamer-plugins-bad-free >= 0.10.21 Installed: gstreamer-plugins-bad-free-0.10.20-3.fc14.1.x86_64 (@updates) gstreamer-plugins-bad-free = 0.10.20-3.fc14.1 Available: gstreamer-plugins-bad-free-0.10.20-3.fc14.i686 (fedora) .....
Say if I want to install openssh in traditional way with ./configure then make and make install which works fine in Fedora but not in Ubuntu as it gives error for a Mailer program when ran ./configure, as sendmail is by default installed in Fedora but not in Ubuntu. What I need to know is how yum/apt-get resolve this dependency problem? Is there any file in the OS where it's listed all the dependencies along with the package names like in Redhat installation CD there are some XML files where it lists all the packages along with their dependencies.
I want to Upgrade my system from Fedora 10 to Fedora 11 but when I use: yum -y update, my system comes up with a lot of dependency errors for Fedora 12, Fedora 13, and Fedora 14.
Right now I just want to upgrade to Fedora 11 and dont understand how I have managed to download packages for Fedora 11, 12, 13 and 14.
For the heck of it (and because I wanted to see if it was possible) I booted to the Slack13 DVD to see if I would be able to install from an online source. I was actually surprised that I could. Why can I only select the A series to install from an online source? Does it have to do with bandwidth considerations? I'm curious for if I wanted to install -current to begin with instead of just upgrading to it.I don't want to have to download all the packages. Just let it install from the net.
I am running Fedora 12 64-bit on a MacBookPro5,1 system. After two weeks of not running Fedora on the system, I boot into it and check for updates with Yum Extender. It only finds a small handful of updates despite the fact that my other system running Fedora 12 32-bit has installed several update over the past two weeks. When I try to apply the available updates I get the following errors: Dependency Resolution Errors:
Missing Dependency: kernel-uname-r = 2.6.32.9-70.fc12.x86_64 is needed by package kmod-wl-2.6.32.9-70.fc12.x86_64-5.60.48.36-1.fc12.3.x86_64 (rpmfusion-nonfree-updates)Missing Dependency: kernel-uname-r = 2.6.32.9-70.fc12.x86_64 is needed by package 1:kmod-nvidia-2.6.32.9-70.fc12.x86_64-190.53-3.fc12.x86_64 (rpmfusion-nonfree-updates)Dependency Resolution Errors:

What is needed to resolve these update issues? Also, I suspect the system is not picking up all the updates that it should. What can I do to determine which updates the system should be getting?
I don't know what I did, but I did something recently, as Pandora keeps getting dependency errors. Pandora is working just fine, but if I open the Software Center, it tells me it needs to fix itself before it can do anything. If I do this, Pandora gets removed. And I have an error box next to the Pandora icon on the upper right bar, telling me: An error occurred, please run Package Manager from the right-click menu or apt-get in a terminal to see what is wrong. The error message was: 'Error: BrockenCount>0' This usually means that your installed packages have unmet dependencies. And this is on a 64bit Maverick install, though it was doing the same on the 64bit Lucid install (I just did the Maverick beta upgrade today).
Also, in a terminal: Code: -desktop:~$ sudo apt-get -f install Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Correcting dependencies... Done
The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required: kdesudo update-manager-kde Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them.
The following packages will be REMOVED: com.pandora.desktop.fb9956fd96e03239939108614098ad95535ee674.1 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 1 to remove and 0 not upgraded. After this operation, 1,114kB disk space will be freed. Do you want to continue [Y/n]?
I use Pandora desktop app, so I don't want to remove it. But I don't have any idea what the problem here is.
actually i am new for this forum and for Linux also. i am using redhat enterprise Linux 5 its not licensed. i am having so much dependency issues is there any way by using which i can resolve dependencies. and i am already made repository. but till i am facing the same issue for any rpm.
I'm trying to install mongodb (so called schema-less database). It requires libraries like libjs, libmozjs, spider-monkey and the like. I had an idea that installing xulrunner would provide most of that, but it doesn't do so in any nice way. I'm a bit scared to muck up my firefox/thunderbird/seamonkey system, which I suspect might easily happen if I tread wrong.
I have an Intel Core2 Duo system that I upgraded from Fedora 12 to Fedora 14 (32-bit). When I try to install updates from YUM I get the following error output:
I've been trying to upgrade my installation for some time now and just can't quite get it right. I would upgrade from the DVD but the installer hangs when it says "Looking for installation images on CD device /dev/sr0". However, that's not really my question. I've resorted to the upgrade instructions as found at [URL]. If I don't use the '--skip-broken' option it complains about the following:
abrt-gui-0.0.11-1.fc12.x86_64 from fedora abrt-libs-1.0.6-1.fc12.x86_64 from updates samba-3.4.5-55.fc12.x86_64 from updates samba-client-3.4.5-55.fc12.x86_64 from updates samba-common-3.4.5-55.fc12.x86_64 from updates samba-winbind-3.4.5-55.fc12.x86_64 from updates samba-winbind-clients-3.4.5-55.fc12.x86_64 from updates
If I use the skip broken option, it then complains about: Transaction Check Error: file /usr/share/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES/cryptsetup.mo from install of cryptsetup-luks-1.1.0-0.4.fc12.x86_64 conflicts with file from package cryptsetup-luks-1.0.6-7.fc11.i586 file /usr/share/locale/sv/LC_MESSAGES/cryptsetup.mo from install of cryptsetup-luks-1.1.0-0.4.fc12.x86_64 conflicts with file from package cryptsetup-luks-1.0.6-7.fc11.i586 file /usr/share/man/man8/cryptsetup.8.gz from install of cryptsetup-luks-1.1.0-0.4.fc12.x86_64 conflicts with file from package cryptsetup-luks-1.0.6-7.fc11.i586
I can't seem to remedy this problem. There were other conflicts but I just removed those packages. When I attempt to remove 'cryptsetup-luks' it then tells me it's going to remove something like 200 others which did not sound like a good idea.
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.
Xmonad noob here: I would like to set the mod key to win + alt instead of just alt or win. I've googled extensively, but can't find anything that's straight forward.
I'm trying to run xmonad, but the hot key alt+****+enter is not giving me the terminal.Is it because I haven't installed xterm?Right now I can't do anything on my machine because I cannot access terminal.I always boot to SLiM, and from there enter xmonad.By the way I'm running arch, I would post on the arch forums but I can't sign up since I need the terminal to run a verification code type thing
recently added xmonad and seems pretty fun! was wondering if anyone knows if it is possible to add keybindings that don't start with the modmask key..reason needed is that i want to have the win key to be the modmask and then need shift+alt to switch between two languages. So far I've "hacked" it by writing a script that switches between the two languages whenever it runs, and I've bound that to modmask + shift however this causes problems whenever I press modmask + shift for other shortcuts...
Also, how do you make keybindings work for different languages.. effectively what I need is identify each key as a key rather than as a character.
I'm running Xmonad and just recently it has stopped responding. None of my shortcuts are working at all. So I deleted my ~/.xmonad/xmoand.hs file, and still no luck. So I decided to log in as root and Xmonad works perfectly. Anyone know why Xmonad isn't working under my normal user? Is there a button i accidently pressed turning off the mod key?I was just browsing the web, then after I closed my browser nothing has been working, even after reboot.
I have been having some trouble using the Esperanto locale in Xmonad for sometime. I used this locale mainly in the terminal, because obviously Xmonad is a tiling WM and doesnt need a specific locale itself. I found that Esperanto locale prevents Xmonad from starting, but that if the LANG locale is exported after Xmonad is already started, it will turn my xterminal into an Esperanto terminal. Thus opening mutt mail will show Esperanto-Mutt, and for instance "command not found" becomes "komando ne trovita". I enjoy seeing this.
So the trick then is running "export LANG="eo.utf8"" just after xmonad loads before any other programs are run. I tried various things, and now wonder is it possible to just have the terminal itself running it its own locale? I could run this manually in every terminal, but wonder about automating it. I use the Xfce4-Terminal.
I tried .bash_profile, .xinitrc, .bashrc, and I tried adding the export to a bash script set to run by xmonad after it starts up. None of these cause the desired effect. I also notice it is temporary. If I open a terminal and do the export, that terminal is Esperantized. If I open a new terminal it is back to english.
Another thing I noticed is that after xmonad starts, if I manually add the export to .bashrc, all the terminals are in Esperanto. So I am thinking of making a script that does a find and replace of the .bashrc to add the export. Its tricky, some kind of sed-grep action. Another idea would be to put the .bashrc in a weird location so it isnt found on startup. Then make a command to symlink to it in the user folder after Xmonad starts. The main Slackware system would be English locale in order to prevent Xmonad from barfing on startup.
I am on a slackware13.0 machine, that I just finished upgrading to 13.1 with slackpkg.(did slackpkg update;slackpkg upgrade-all; slackpkg install-new. I did not restart the machine). Now im attempting to run the mrtg slackbuild but I get the following during the configure stage:Quote:
Up until a couple days ago, samba server worked perfectly. I don't remember doing anything with it except adding another share or two. I can still run SWAT, even from remote computers, but I still have the problem of starting the samba server itself.
#./rc.samba start Starting Samba: /usr/sbin/smbd -D /usr/sbin/nmbd -D #./rc.samba restart smbd: no process killed
[Code]...
After issuing the "start" option, I go into SWAT and the status page says samba's not running.
I'm running KDE on slack13.1 However i've wrecked my system tray.When i "add widgets" and add "system tray" the widget aligns to the left of screen which means when i minimze windows they just disappear.
how to update my system online (for example my firefox 3.0 to 3.5) but i can't figure out how this possibly works. I tried the "online update" using Yast2 but apparently (according to Yast) there is nothing at all to be patched on my system. I tried to click on the Firefox-3.5.5 rpm in the repository web-interface and open it using "install software" but the process aborts because of unresolved dependencies. Is there an easy way to update software without having to download/install every dependency manually?
