Let's say that I've installed the following versions of R on my computer.
R 2.10
R 2.11
R 2.12
Is there a bash command which can be used to getst of all versions which are installed.I've used dpkg --get-selections | grep r-base but that just return 'r-base' and i'd have no info on the version.
Like i'm curious what version of wine i have installed...What are my current ati drivers installed...If wine isn't 1.2 or 1.3 how do i update it from command line?really any insight into this process would help its not absolutely critical to know but i've been looking around and haven't found informationOr some references to good articles to become a command line guru would be cool as well.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI want to build deb packages for two versions of same product that can be installed on the machine simultaneously. The source folder structure for both the packages have a common folder needed by both the versions. So i need to keep the common folder till both the versions are removed from the machine.My problem is that i can't install both the versions at the same time, i.e i have to uninstall the installed version and then install the other version. After installing one version, if i try to install another version, an overwrite error comes up. is there any option in dpkg for overwrite? Or is there any way to partially uninstall a deb package?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have matlab installed on a network (I am not the administrator) and we usually start the program by typing "matlab", then choosing one of the version options from the menu i.e. typing "n". So because of this, trying to run matlab programs or commands directly like this... matlab -r ProgramName
...does not work. I just get the menu as usual and everything else is ignored. I assume the admin has overridden the matlab command with their own custom script. So my question is can I start a specific version of the program by specifying the folder that the version is in? I thought it might be something like /opt/matlab/version -r programname
this might look foolish, but I am a bit of a linux noob. Let me know if I should just ask my administrator but I thought there might be something easy I am missing.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to install libusb. I've downloaded a file from [URL]. I've unzipped the file; the folder's on my desktop. I've tried to install this, but I'm not sure how. Under installation it says: See the file 'INSTALL'. There are a few files that start with this term: INSTALL.libusb, INSTALL.libusb.in and install-sh. The first two appear to be the same, while the latter appears to be some sort of program.
When I double click it, I get a few options, including "run". I assumed this was the correct way to install the program, but when I hit run, nothing happens. I've displayed this file, but this gives me no additional information. I've tried running it in terminal: nothing. Maybe it has installed, and I just don't know it. How would I even check if it's installed? (I'm only installing libusb because I need it for something else).

I know with if statements in bash you can do
Code:
if [ $fruit = apple ]
then echo "Good, I like Apples"
fi
But I was wondering if you could do something like this:
Code:
if [apt-cache pkgnames smbfs = smbfs doesn't exist]
the apt-get install smbfs
fi
If so how would you capture the output from apt-cache pkgname smbfs to determine if it's installed?
After sifting through numerous apt-get apt-cache apt-file tutorials I still can't find a command to check if a package is installed via the terminal command/line.
I know there must be some way to do it.

I'd love to know how to check the original configuration of a self-installed package? For example, I would like to install the package XXXXX. I did:
./configure
make
make install
After the installation, I would like to know what the configuration I used for XXXXX's installation. Maybe some dependencies (for example, A,B,C...) were not found so that XXXXX was installed without depending on A,B,C.... However, now, I would like XXXXX depend on A,B,C... How to check whether the current installed XXXXX's original configuration?
