Ubuntu Installation :: Use 10.04 Repositories In 8.04 Server Without Upgrading OS?
Apr 29, 2010
Just wondering if this is feasible/sensible. I'm running a server with 8.04 LTS server edition, and I'd like to upgrade to the latest version of sshd because the version included with 8.04 doesn't easily support chroots and I know it's simple to set up in newer versions. There's no official backport, and I don't want to upgrade the whole OS to 10.04 or 9.10, so I was wondering if it was possible to upgrade only the sshd package using a newer repository or something like that?

I just installed ubuntu because the newer versions were not working for me. So I installed 7.10 and there is no repositories that are still up. Is there any repositories that I could add from the newer ones or other distro repositories.

I thought I'd give 10.04 a try since it's an LTS release and I was still using Jaunty. I did the upgrade over SSH using sudo*do-release-upgrade*-d and at first it just upgraded me to Karmic. After the reboot I ran the same command again and it looked like it was upgrading this time to Lucid. Now however after the reboot I no longer could log in (no SSH) and after inspecting the system locally by digging out and old monitor and keyboard, it seams the system hangs during boot.
I went into the Grub menu and found that there is no server kernel listed (apart from the old Jaunty one), only generic-pae and generic. None of these will boot, and if I try the recovery modes the keyboard doesn't function when I get to the recovery menu. Also if I boot the old 2.6.28-17-server, it does boot, but the keyboard also won't function once it boots. I can SSH in once the old kernel has booted, but when I tried to install linux-image-2.6.32-19-server via apt, it can't be found. Furher investigation online sems to indicate that there's only a 64-bit server package and no 32-bit package. What's that all about, is 32-bit no longer supported on the server platfom, and if so is my install now screwed?

I've just upgraded my server installation from 9.04 to 9.10. I'm running this as a Xen virtual machine. All seemed to go well until I restarted, at which point I got stuck at this point:
Begin: Running /scripts/init-bottom ...
Done.
mountall:/proc: unable to mount: Device or resource busy
mountall:/proc/self/mountinfo: No such file or directory
[code]...
My service provider is running xen-shell 1.0.79 running on Xen version 3.0.3-1, and after the seemingly-successful do-release-upgrade, uname -r reports ubuntu kernal 2.6.18-5-xen-amd64. Unfortunately, this isn't mentioned as a possible problem here [URL]

I know why this happened, but I need to know what problems it's going to cause and how I can re-install / fix the problem. I have my /tmp folder mounted as -noexec ... so when I did a recent update to my 10.04.1 LTS server installation, I got the following errors:
Processing triggers for initramfs-tools ...

Press return to continue.
What should I do now? (besides, obviously, removing the -noexec flag from /tmp so this doesn't happen again!)

I have a home installation of 6.06 LTS Server on my Sun Ultra2 (Ultrasparc). I love it, everything about it is great. However, I'm starting to watch the clock and realize that I will soon need to upgrade if I want to continue to receive security updates. What is the best way to accomplish this? Can I directly upgrade to the next LTS release? (8.04)? Also, there is no GUI installed, it's a headless system. What is the best mechanism for upgrading via the commandline?

When this happens you have to open a terminal, get the process id for mysql-server-5 then kill that process. Like this:
Code:
ps -A
then from the list of processes that it spits out look at the process id (the number at the beginning of the line) for mysql-server-5.
Now type
Code:
sudo kill -9 XXXXX
where XXXXX is the process id for mysql-server, and enter your password. The upgrade process should now resume.

I am running Suse 11.1 64bit, with KDE, recently I received a pop up on my screen, "something about update problems", I used Yast 2 and selected online Update and it couldn't find updates for Nvidia and froze at that point. I dis-enabled that repository and refreshed all of the remaining Repositories individually and it seemed to work. I then went to the repositories listing and selected "Add" and selected "community" repositories and received the following: WARNING Unable to download list of repositories or no repositories defined. What is my problem? How do I acquire the list of community repositories? I can live with out the Nvidia repository for now but would eventually like to get it back.

I need a bind-server (I mean DNS server) with a SQL backend. As far as I have seen, the only viable option I have is to recompile bind9 with support for either MySQL or PostGre.
Link to this: [URL]with an additional
Code:
apt-get install libpqxx3-dev
From some tutorials I have read, I see I need to recompile it to enable its SQL support.
But when I do it that way, I won't get any security updates, won't I?
So... Is there any bind server with SQL support in the repositories ? For that I don't have to worry about security updates...

I am trying to build minimal php and mysql binaries. While doing so, I realize that there is no documentaries to state whether does compiling straight from the source without any configurations options set, ensure an optimized yet minimal build? I am trying out for my own personal website which will be powered by Wordpress 3. The previous method I used was using the package manager: "apt-get install php-cgi php5-cgi php5-cli php5-mysql mysqld mysql-server mysql mysql-client". I am trying out to mimic the binaries installed by the package manager through building from the sources instead. How do I know what configuration options did those repositories developers used? Is there any special configuration options used for those minimal yet optimized binaries? Does doing the following ensure a minimal build?:
1) ./configure
2) make
3) install
I figured since I did not use any configuration options, therefore it should be a minimal build right (Meaning the bare-bones)?

I get this when I do gksu gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
E: Malformed line 61 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list (absolute dist) E: The list of sources could not be read. Go to the repository dialog to correct the problem. E: _cache->open() failed, please report.
When I do sudo apt-get update, I get this:E: Malformed line 61 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list (absolute dist)
I do not have a line 61. I tried various suggestions in the forums and commented out lines in the past.
I would like to know what my options are?

I installed the PinguyOS version of Maverick, but even after disabling all the repositories that came with it I still couldn't get this to work. Therefore this must be a problem with Ubuntu 10.10 itself, however if this problem does exist is Ubuntu, I'm surprised these forums are flooded with complaints. I've searched them up and down and I found nothing. Anyway, the problem is that I can't install digikam, this is the error I get: The following packages have unmet dependencies.
digikam : Depends: kdebase-runtime but it is not going to be installed
Depends: kdepim-runtime but it is not going to be installed
Depends: libkde3support4 (>= 4:4.4.4) but it is not going to be installed
Depends: libqt4-qt3support (>= 4:4.5.3) but it is not going to be installed
Recommends: kipi-plugins but it is not going to be installed
E: Broken packages
The problem here seems to be that the kde libraries that come with ubuntu are version 4.5 for everything. And it seems digikam 1.4 is built against kde 4.4.

I have Ubuntu 9.10 on my PC and am really happy with it. As you know, support ends in April. I can't upgrade to 10.04 or 10.10, tried several times, it just doesn't like my old video card. Money is really tight now, so can't upgrade the video card either OK, now my question. Are the repositories still available after the support date?

I'm using Ubuntu Maverick
On my university, the technology center uses the Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. I've been told by my teacher to get GCC for the C language. Searching for GCC on my netbook, I can find two programs: Sysinfo (why?) GGcov (doesn't open) Searching for GCC on the TC Computer, I can find 115 programs... The administrator wasn't there at the moment I checked this, and he'll not be there on this weekend so... I would like to do this by myself tomorrow. With my vast one-week experience with ubuntu, I think such software abundance from the TC computer side is related to repositories. I would like to copy them all to my netbook, if it's possible.

I'm in the midst of updating from my poky old Dell to a newer (3 yr old) HP laptop. I've completed most of the changeover, but I can't seem to add any repositories to Software Sources. When I attempt to enter the APT line into Synaptic, the only button that's clickable is "Cancel." This holds true even if I use sudo to run Synaptic from the command line.
I've also tried editing /etc/apt/sources.list directly, but when I enter the corresponding lines (cut and pasted from my old computer, to eliminate the chance of typos), I get a message that the newly inserted lines are "malformed."
I'm sure I've overlooked something simple, but I've been at this for two days now and I'm getting a bit frustrated (doesn't do much for mental clarity).

For some reason Sun Java 6 isn't in any of the standard repositories. Some sites recommend adding the old Maverick repositories to install it. I just know that adding an old repository is going to break something. Does anyone know when it will be in the standard repositories?

After my system was updated to Natty, even though Software Sources is set for LTS updates only, none of the repositories in Software Sources or /etc/apt/sources.list.d were updated. I have manually updated the Software Sources repositories, and removed the outdated repositories from /etc/apt/sources.list.d, but when I do apt-get update I still see references to previous Ubuntu versions. How do I update ALL the repositories?
