Whenever I do an apt-get upgrade, I get this warning:Install these packages without verification [y/N]? How to remove this warning? Nothing in the forum has seemed to work so far for me.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a a few questions about Testing's update manager. When I go to the update manager I get a message saying "Do you want to perform a safe-upgrade, which does not remove packages or install new ones"? Will my entire system ever eventually get upgraded if I only ever do safe-upgrades? Or is there a time and a place to do non-safe upgrades? I did a non-safe upgrade a few days ago and all it did was mess with a bunch of OpenOffice packages.
Why are only certain packages selected by default when doing a non safe upgrade? Why is it that whenever I do a non-safe upgrade when it's done applying the updates the same packages I just installed are listed as available updates? Also, I used this website to build my sources.list and there apparently is some sort of "fatal error" with one of the repositories I selected. Is there a text file somewhere I can go to see a readout of apt-get bug reports?
When one installs an application,it brings in other stuff too as dependencies.
When this application is removed,will zypper remove the dependencies that came with it and are not needed by other installed packages?
Is it possible to check before and after removal?

I installed java and my computer went off in the middle of the process and some packages didn't install correctly. I decided to reinstall them but it doesn't let me. I have tried to remove them using the synaptic manager, I also tried to remove them manually. I've tried: apt-get -f install also. I tried to re-install it using:
sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre sun-java6-plugin sun-java6-fonts
but this error comes up

View 3 Replies View RelatedI was installing some packages using the generate download script in synaptic and 'sudo dpkg -i -R ...' because I don't have my own internet connection at home but somewhere else. I think I got carried away a little and installed some packages that have some dependency issues. Now I have three broken packages that need to be removed, but I don't want them to affect (remove) other packages which would be marked whenever I try to mark them for removal, for fear that their removal might affect other functions. I think my machine was just fine before I started to fumble with individual dependencies; that's why I don't what the other dependencies removed. My question is how do I remove those dependencies only using the terminal without removing the others?

1. why is it that when i add a ppa to the repository and then i type sudo apt-get update,it has an error for that ppa but i can still install it? deluge is the main one that does that.
2. when i install apps, it tells me to use apt-get autoremove to remove unused packages but i need some of them like java etc. how do i take some apps off of the autoremove list?

View 8 Replies View RelatedAfter updating to Karmic, Synaptic shows almost all of my installed packages in the category "Installed (manual)", including about half of the packages that belong to a clean Ubuntu installation (e.g. apparmor, apt and hundreds of others). As a result, I can't easily get a list of those packages that I did indeed install manually and may want to remove. Is there a way of removing the "Installed (manual)" flag from all packages?
If I could do this, all packages that do not belong to the core Ubuntu system should show up as "Installed (auto removable)" and I could individually mark only those as manually installed that I really still need and let apt/synaptic uninstall everything else. I know that with today's hard disks, disk usage of installed packages is not an issue. But those packages accumulate over time and need to be updated with every security update and every ubuntu dist-upgrade, wasting time and bandwidth.
Using Xubuntu,I have upgraded from Karmic to Lucid. Post upgrading when attempting to install a new package with aptitude, it is reported that cups is "BROKEN" and a host of packages are marked for removal.

2) Why isn't the output of the show-leaves plugin compatible with the output of "package-cleanup --leaves"?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI had a fairly smooth upgrade process using PreUpgrade on my main workstation, but I still have a huge bunch of fc12, some of which have fc13 analogs installed, some of which don't (a total of 317 packages). Also, I still have the Constantine gdm theme, probably as a symptom of these lingering packages. Can I just yum erase these? Do I need to check which have analogs in fc13?

I added Sid to my /etc/apt/sources.list, so that I could install KDE4 (as described on some random KDE4/Debian web page). However, I now think that was a mistake and it would have been better to attempt to backport KDE4 onto Lenny. Over time, more and more sid packages have crept into the system to resolve dependencies, and now my system seems a bit broken; 'top' won't run, complains about missing libtermcap which is there, my cron jobs seem to be ignored and so on.
So given a system that is a mix of Lenny and Sid, what is the best way to uninstall all the Sid packages and then get back to a clean Lenny install? Is there some way that I can list all Sid packages, maybe to a file, then use that to tell apt what Lenny packages to install after sources.list has been updated to remove Sid?
I kept a log as the system was built, of everything that had to be manually set up after the debian installer has completed when I moved from 32-bit to 64-bit, so I could just do a clean install of Lenny then reconstruct the system from scratch. However, would much prefer to use the package management tools to revert to a clean Lenny.
last week I encountered the following problem: The update manager suggests a distribution upgrade (strange enough since I already have 10.4 and 10.10 is not released yet). The even worse part is that 24 packages shall be removed from my system, including acpi, cryptsetup, network-manager, nvidia-current, plymouth-x11, samba and wine. About 5 weeks ago I experimented (without success) with disabling plymouth because I wanted textmode during booting. I found some warnings that one should not completly remove plymouth because lots of dependencies including cryptsetup (which is vital to my system). So I did not remove plymouth (a look in Synaptic confirms this), but I may have changed some settings concerning plymouth.I am not sure what this upgrade is about.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI managed to successfully upgrade FC11 to FC13. While doing the post upgrade steps, I made a HUGE mistake. After identifying the unsupported packages, I used "yum remove package1 package2" command to remove the obsoleted ones without realizing the yum was also removing many FC13 packages! Here are the cmd sequence used:

I simply typed Yes and left unattended for a few minutes after yum prompted there were # of packages to be removed as I blindly believed it would do the job. After returning to the computer, I found many installed icons were disappearing, the wireless suddenly turned off etc. I killed the yum process right away but it was too late.

I just bought a recently-released Toshiba CB35-B3340 Chromebook, and I'm trying to install Debian on it (I want to wipe out CrOS and give all harddrive space to Debian). However, I'm having problems booting from USB. When I press Ctrl+U at boot, the screen flashes back, the computer beeps, and I'm brought back to the same "OS Verification is Off" screen. If I press Ctrl+L to get to what is supposed to be the SeaBios screen, the computer beeps twice and nothing else happens.
I followed steps 1-4 and 8 of this guide: [URL] .... and I just downloaded the amd64 netinstall image from the Debian website and dd'd it to the USB stick.
I've tried two different USB sticks and successfully booted another computer from them, but neither work on the Chromebook. I've also tried both USB ports, since I've heard some Chromebooks can only boot from one, but to no avail.
I have looked into things like ChrUbuntu and crouton, but they look like they just set up a dual-boot or chroot system. I want neither of these, my goal being to have a normal Linux laptop at the end.
