I cannot download any package from the greek ubuntu server. The same problem has a friend of mine. Is there any problem with these servers? The error is 404, not found, something very important

I am trying to upgrade the version of dovecot on a rarely-maintained Debian machine with which I almost never have problems (ain't Linux wonderful?). The current version is 1.0.rc15-2, and I think the latest version is 1.2 something, but the point is that I want to be able to use the pigeonhole sieve plugin. Anyway, when I try to "apt-get install dovecot-imapd dovecot-pop3d", it gets to this: Err [URL].. etch/main gnomemeeting 2.0.3-6 404 Not Found Failed to fetch [URL]..-6_all.deb 404 Not Found E: Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with --fix-missing?

I've found a website [URL] that I've downloaded Basilisk II [URL] and SheepShaver [URL] from, I converted both inton deb archive using the command sudo alien, but while they both successfully converted and installed, and show up in the Applications menu, only Basilisk II launches. When I click on the SheepShaver icon, nothing happens. I had this problem with another SheepShaver RPM I downloaded elsewhere. I really want to use SheepShaver to run Mac OS 9 on my laptop, is there something I can do to get it to run?

View 9 Replies View RelatedWould it cause any issues to delete the cached archives from the installed packages? I have almost a gig of space being taken up and would like to get the space back.
View 3 Replies View RelatedA few releases ago things used to work this way, but seemingly since Jaunty it no longer does seem to work:
This used to work: I have several Ubuntu machines to upgrade and limited (and highly expensive) bandwidth available. In the past I would upgrade/update one machine and copy the contents of /var/cache/apt/archives to the other machines to be upgraded. When updating/upgrading the distro the packages that already exist in /var/cache/apt/archives would not be downloaded from the Internet while utilising the locally cached .deb files, saving time and bandwidth.
The Problem: I have noticed that since 9.10 (and with 10.04) this no longer appears to work. While the .deb packages may exist in /var/cache/apt/archives, the same packages would be downloaded from the Internet regardless of the same .deb file existing in /var/cache/apt/archives/.
Question: What is wrong and how can I restore the functionality present in copying cached packages from machine to machine in order to save bandwidth?
Why I need this to work: At work (and I have no control over this...) we are limited to a total bandwidth of 3Gb per month for multiple users. Needless to say a single upgrade of a recent Ubuntu distro can decimate a large proportion of our monthly available bandwidth. Upgrading multiple machines is absolutely out of the question if the packages have to be downloaded every time.
An apt-cache server is not an option: The option of a local apt-cache server is not feasible due to the same 3Gb bandwidth constraint. An apt-cache server requires 15Gb storage per version of Ubuntu and the downloading/upgrading of 15Gb worth of packages for that storage is not an option due to the 3Gb limitation.
My /var/cache/apt/archives directory has almost 9000 items and is over 12 GB big. All it contains is a bunch of .deb files. Do I need this file or can I delete it to save hard drive space?

I want to tar -zxvf several dozen .tar.gz archives. I know how only to tar -zxvf one archive at a time. If possible, I would like to tar -zxvf all the archives in one command so I don't have to type "tar -zxvf [filename]" several dozen times. What's the syntax? I looked at the man tar page, but couldn't find it.
View 3 Replies View RelatedAre there any other archiving tools than tar that preserve Linux file permissions and user/group flags? I want to create archives of a directory tree on my ubuntu box. The directory trees are large, a first run with tar cvpzf archive.tgz /home/foo/bar yielded a 5GB archive. I also want to keep all permissions and other flags and special files.I'm fine with a 5GB archive, however to look inside that archive -- since it is a compressed tar archive -- the whole 5GB have to be decompressed first! (Or so it appears when opening it with the archive viewer -- I'm happy to be corrected.)So I need a way to "backup" a directory (tree) while preserving full filesystem attributes and right and creating an archive with an "index" that hasn't to be decompressed for browsing its contents. An archive is either a single file, or a (small) set of files that carries full and complete information within this file/s. That is, it can live on any filesystem (size permitting), it can be burnt onto a DVD, you can split it (after which the point of this question is really lost - but still), ...

View 4 Replies View RelatedI ran into some complications with my ubuntu 10.10 install and couldn't boot into the desktop. I decided to use a live CD to get access to my downloaded cached packages and copied them to my windows partition, now I've re-installed ubuntu and manually restored the apps into the /archives/ directory, I've installed a lot of apps from the directory already but AptOnCD has refused to properly reflect the apps I have there, is there something I'm overlooking?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a large number of zip-archives which I would like to extract and then delete, keeping only the extracted files. The files are located in a number of directories and I issued the following command, hoping that it would solve my problem (which it didn't):
Code:find . -name "*.zip" -execdir unzip '{}' ; -deleteWhat happened was that find continued to extract the files as intended, but then it deletednot only the zip-archives but also the newly extracted files.it only affected a portion of the files that I had already backed up.I don't have enough space on my hard drive to extract all the files without simultaneously removing any data and I don't have the energy to go through all the directories one by one manually. Surely there must be a better way. Is there a way to fix the code snippet above so that it works as I intended or is there a better way of doing this?
There is this directory with a lot of .deb files in it. /var/cache/apt/archives
Can i delete all these files in that directory? is it safe? They are temporary files right?
I have in my pc (ubuntu 10.10 32 bit) a folder with about 10.000 files. It is a samba shared folder and so far I could browse fast and easily those files in another old ( Pentium4 1,5Ghz) PC with WinXP. I installed ubuntu 10.10 but the browsing now is toooooooo slow , although the old Pc's performance is considerably faster than before (when I had WinXP). Also, although the old PC's speed is satisfatory now, would it become even faster if I installed an older ubuntu distro?
View 4 Replies View RelatedEach time I try to just open a password protected archive with Ark it just shows a "Loading file" progress bar, but nothing happens after several minutes. And if I just right-click and select "extract" extracts nothing. It doesn't even ask for the password at any moment. I also checked the help typing "man Ark" in the console, but found nothing related to passwords. Has someone successfully opened archives with password with Ark? Or is it still buggy?
And on a side note, I can open normal .rar files, but cannot compress files. It says "failed to locate program RAR in the PATH". I thought Ark was all self-contained. Do I need to install something else?
How can I group files and create archives accordingly? I have 10,000 files in a folder (no sub-folders) and I want to create 10 zip or tar.gz archives. This means every archive has 1,000 files. How can I do this in Linux?
View 1 Replies View RelatedSomeone has sent me a zip file containing some fonts. I extracted it using unzip under Linux, and there are empty files in the top level of the archive, and some files similarly named but beginning with ._ in a __MACOSX subdirectory.
I understand that the __MACOSX contents should be metadata, and normally I'd delete it. In this case, however, all of the data seems to be in there! Is there a tool that I can use to reassemble the original data?
