Ubuntu :: Multiple Python Packages / Config Trashed
Apr 9, 2011
This all started when my Screenlets stopped working. Then I noticed that my update notification stopped too. So, to the command line I went to do and update hoping it was a recent update that needed to be fixed.
Code:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
It appears that multiple python packages are trashed some how? Currently doing sudo apt-get -f install I get:
HTML Code:
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:
python-configglue python-ubuntuone-client libimobiledevice0 python-ubuntuone-storageprotocol python-twisted-web python-pyinotify libcouchdb-glib-1.0-2 .....

In Dolphin, when right clicking for context menu, my "Open with" list is trashed with multiple entries, that also contain old applications that I no longer have (or even had?). Just for example: for pdfs I have 3 Acrobat Readers, 2 FoxitReaders, 2 okulars, 2 GIMPs (?) etc. Same for other file types. How to clean it? I absolutely don't mind wiping it completely, so that it all goes back to default values. Configuring it anew is much better than having this list bother me every time I use a right click. I'm on 10.10 now, upgraded from 10.04. I've been using my home folder for like ever, without cleaning it, which is probably the source of the issue.

in ubuntu 10.10, I have installed python 2.7. I would like to use apt-get to install packages to this version of python but I haven't been able to figure out howThings I have tried without success:changing the symlink at /usr/bin/python to point to /usr/bin/python2.7 - even after doing this apt-get still installs stuff to python2.6.Set up python2.7 as the primary alternative using update-alternatives - doesn't work

I ran into this bug: [URL]...I checked that overwrite-local was set to 1. So I want to delete all python packages that were installed by checkinstall with the /usr prefix.
Now it has been some time since I did this and I dont really remember. Does anyone using checkinstall know how to spot packages installed via checkinstall? I already checked the FAQ and doc of checkinstall, but no info on this.

There seems to be a lot of documentation automatically installed on my hard drive, is there a unified browser for all of the -doc packages? Is it just the man command? What about the html documentation that comes with python packages? Is there an easy way to browse these? As it stands, all I know how to do is navigate to the directory and open the html file explicitly, it just seems like there might be an easier way. I've googled around and don't know exactly what I'm looking for.

I just finished upgrading the last of 3 machines from F10 to F12 using preupgrade (all i686). Except for a non-critical hplip issue, all went well with the first two machines upgraded 1 week and 3 days ago, but some python F10->F12 updates were missing on the third machine that I upgraded yesterday, leaving yum inoperable. Thanks to good yum error messages, I was able to resolve the problem (I think), but I thought I should post to check if mine is a unique or common problem, to enquire if it may have resulted from some of the python packages being in "update transit" in the repositories, and/or whether something like this can be avoided in future? Details follow:
Upgrade appeared to go well except for some dejavu font dependency issues (experienced on all three machines) and libcrypto.so.7 missing for eet-1.2.2-4... (third machine). However, there was a boot message that some python module (can't remember which) was not present for some nvidia requirement, although video driver worked fine. When testing yum: First it complained that libpython2.6.so.1.0 was not present. Since that module conflicted (identified by rpm) with various python 2.5.*f10 packages that that were still on board, I copied libpython2.6.so.1.0 (from a current f12 rpm) into /usr/lib manually. Second, yum complained that urlgrabber was not available, so rpm with the latest python-urlgrabber for f12 solved that.
Third, yum complained that pycurl was not available, so rpm with the latest python-pycurl solved that. Yum now works! and boot message is gone! I ran "yum install python-libs" to make sure that any necessary dependencies were met following my manual installation of libpython2.6.so.1.0, which resulted in a bunch of python dependencies being upgraded as a result.

I just installed Netsurf, but I was confronted with "libnsbmp is not installed". So I installed libnsbmp.
The error "libnsgif is not installed" appeared when installing libnsbmp.
The error "libpng is not installed" appearded when installing libpnf.
...
I installed all that I was asked to install. However, when I was installing libcss, it said that "Package libparserutils was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing 'libparserutils.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable". I have already installed libparsercutils but not in the /usr/lib dir.
What should I do to continue my installation? And anyone could tell me what are those lib stuff? I installed zlib with the apt-get install command.Can I get other lib stuff with the same command?

say you've got the following file structure:
Code:
ls -l *
lrwxrwxrwx 1 briank cg 1 2010-05-28 15:23 a -> b
lrwxrwxrwx 1 briank cg 3 2010-05-28 15:23 b -> d/c
d:
total 0
-rw-rw-r-- 1 briank cg 0 2010-05-28 15:23 c
code....
if I use python's os.readlink on 'b', it reports what I want, which is that it points to 'c'.
however, if I os.readlink('a'), it reports that 'a' points to 'b', which is true, but then 'b' points to 'c'.... so really, when I ask for 'a', I will eventually get 'c', but python isn't reporting that.
I know I can do an if test - if os.islink(os.readlink('a')): blah blah, but is there a more built-in or one-liner way of doing this? I'm looking to get to the last file in a list of symlinks, i.e. the regular file that they all point to.

I have a text string I want to pass as the second arg to a bash shell.
My python line is :
The first arg "gap" works great and the bash shell uses it as $1
I need "fill" passed along as $2 intact
Here is the bash line:
As you can see after the -f it has to be in single quotes and $FILL will complete the single quote
Nothing is getting passed as a second arg from python, I did have the first word at one time but that was 85 tries ago and forgot how I did it!
The bash script complains about an unterminated quote.

I was assigned to do all the RHEL5 updates. All installed fine including the new kernel except for the updated libX11 and python packages. Does anyone have any suggestions relating to a fix for this?

I'm having problems with networking. I just installed Debian 6 SServer LAMP and it didn't autoconnect to internet. I plug in the internet to my eth0 (default) port, and I keep getting timeouts. I found that dhcp3-client was not installed and fixed that. My etc interfaces has this for eth0: Auto eth0 Iface eth0 inet dhcp What other packages or config do I need to make the internet work? It's missing something basic that wasn't setup properly. I do get the correct dns address to my isp provider when I check etc resolv.conf. It just can't dhcp discover.

I am looking into Kickstart installations for Red hat 5. Previously I used RHELWS4 and I would use the "all packages" flag to get around having to specify all the packages.
For example:
%packages
@ everything
kernel-devel
kernel-largesmp-devel
e2fsprogs
kernel
kernel-largesmp
Would get me everything on the RHELWS4 DVD. From what I can see this option is not present in RHEL5. Can someone please provide some advice on a way to automatically parse the RHEL5 DVD and generate a list of packages so that I can ensure all the packages are present in the installation? I imagine I would need to do this for each update of RHEL5 since the package list will evolve over time.

I have several sites running on a local server. Currently, they're all running on port 80. I need one particular site (and ONLY that site) to also accept connections on port 81.
If I browse to the server IP x.x.x.x:80 directly, Apache's behaviour of showing the default site should work as usual. But, if I browse to IP x.x.x.x:81, it should show a different site (the one that should be accepting both :80 and :81). This part is very important.
I was hoping something like the following would work, but it didn't Currently x.x.x.x:81 still shows what I've called myport80defaultsite.com below.
Code:
Listen 80
Listen 81
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName myport80defaultsite.com
[Code].....

I can't change my screen resolution but my fedora doesn't have system-config-display. Trying to install this package and for some reason it is not listed under the add/remove software, and yum says it can't find it either.
# yum install -y system-config-display
results
No package system-config-display available.
Error: Nothing to do
Searching in the add/remove software I found some others such as system-config-firewall, system-config-date and etc but it doesn't have system-config-display. Is there any other way to install this package? currently running kernal linux 2.6.35.9-64.fc14.x86_64 , fedora 14 on 64 bit system gnome 2.32.0

How can you do it with individual ifcfg-* files?
I've tried adding them like this:
Filename: ifcfg-vlan1:0
BOOTPROTO='static'
ETHERDEVICE='vlan1'
STARTMODE='manual'
USERCONTROL='no'
IPADDR='192.168.1.2/24'
but it fails on ifup, thinking it might be the filename (the vlan tagging being picked up from the name) I tried renaming it but still no go.
I can add IP's via ifconfig, eg ifconfig vlan1:0 192.168.1.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 up
and I'm pretty sure I could add multiples to the ifcfg-vlan1 file but how do I add them from individual config files?

First of all, ntfs-config does not appear in the menu in openSUSE 11.4 Gnome 2.32. When I try to start it using the run command(Alt + F2) it gives the following error in a small window: Insufficient Rights. You need administrative rights to start this application. I then try to run it as root (su -l or su) and it gives the following error:

All these packages and others are already installed in my computer.

I have VPS installed with Debian, NGINX, mysql, php and wordpress. By default the template gives 1 wordpress install in the /var/www/ directory. However, now I want to add more domains with wordpress to that VPS. I created a directory called /home/public_html/domain1.com and linked it to the /var/www/ directory. then I created another directory called /home/public_html/domain2.com and uploaded wordpress there. What I did next was edit my /etc/nginx/nginx.conf file with the following code:
Code:
user www-data www-data;
worker_processes 4;

I have a laptop that I have been running 64bit lucid on after some problems with NFS Samba and SMB the installation got a bit trashed after some workarounds I removed nautilus completely and rebooted and got the looping login screen........ then I tried a suggestion to purge gdm but that left me with a blank grey screen and a mouse pointer. X11 has failed so I have no graphics
I can login properly to the drive from the terminal and can access my drive contents... I cannot load dolphin or nautilus from the terminal. So I have booted from a live cd and have moved some of my data to another partition but some is locked to the owner (me). How can I get my locked data opened so I can copy or move it to another drive, so I can perform a fresh install.

Update manager got me to install some updates, including Linux headers. Now I have no sound. It cannot find my on board sound chipset and it's even taken away Alsamixer (no such file or directory) where I went to see if anything had become muted.I'm running 10.04 64 bit and I can't even find out how to get the grub loading screen. When I used to dual boot with Windows I could choose the previous Linux headers, now I can't even do that.

This, in conjunction with the "If nouveau refuses to die try" instructions, has now apparently basically trashed my fresh Fedora 12 x64 installation, which I had just set up. Another couple of hours gone to waste. I installed the package that Nokia offers as leigh123linux's build instructions last rpmbuild command persistently gave errors, restarted and was left with Nouveau showing some cryptic error message and finally being presented with only the console. Then I did the "if nouveau refuses to die try" part, foolishly figuring the nVidia driver might take over. Now I am left with watching Fedora's legacy boot animation (the loading bar) and then but one USB error message, nothing else. Looks like I'll be stuck with W7 for another while.

I am running OpenSuSE 11.2 64bit which was upgraded from 11.1. When I moved to OS 11.2, I found out the hard way about VMWare not working. Then tried to remove it and fix it myself.
When I try to run the config script...
Code:
parents:~ # vmware-config.pl
Unable to find the answer LIBDIR in the installer database
(/etc/vmware/locations). You may want to re-install VMware Server.
Execution aborted.
parents:~ #
When I try to install vmware-server
Code:
parents:~ # rpm -i VMware-server-2.0.2-203138.x86_64.rpm
package VMware-server-2.0.2-203138.x86_64 is already installed
When I try to upgrade vmware-server
Code:
parents:~ # rpm -U VMware-server-2.0.2-203138.x86_64.rpm
package VMware-server-2.0.2-203138.x86_64 is already installed
When I try to force install vmware-server
Code:
parents:~ # rpm --force VMware-server-2.0.2-203138.x86_64.rpm
rpm: only installation, upgrading, rmsource and rmspec may be forced
Other than rebuilding my box, how can I recover from this?

So I was creating a bootable USB stick with Unetbootin and accidentally selected my hard drive instead of the flash drive. My system is still running but I'm pretty sure I hosed it and it's not going to boot again if I restart. When I run cfdisk on my boot drive it says "FATAL ERROR: Cannot open disk drive". When I run cfdisk without a drive specification it says "FATAL ERROR: Bad primary partition 2: Partition ends in the final partial cylinder". I think this problem is probably not specific to OpenSUSE but I figured this is as good a place to start as any.

I need to remove a lot of rpm packages and I would like to save some time and make things easier, but I am unsure of how to do it. Currently I just copy/paste over and over. My plan was to put the output of the command below into a text file, and use that text file to remove all the packages.
rpm -qa |grep xxxxx > file.txt
My question is how do I get that file to work with "rpm -e". I tried to insert the file using the less than symbol but that didn't work:
rpm -e --nodeps < file.txt

Ok I got this folder which has got let's say 3 packages:
example1.txz
example2.txz
example3.txz
Of course, there are many more packages actually. But anyway, I want to create a script that will upgrade all packages contained in the folder at once just by running the script.

I have three Ubuntu desktops that I would like to upgrade from 9.10 to 10.04. Is there a way to avoid having each PC download the same packages? Is there some magic I can do with two of the PCs to maybe point the software source list at the third 'master' PC that does all the downloading?

Is there any way to quickly remove multiple related packages from the command line instead of having to enter the name of every single one? I am trying to remove OpenOffice from my server running 10.04. It would work nicely if I could get a list of packages without line breaks, such as the list displayed by aptitude when upgrading. That way I could just paste the package list into the terminal. However, "aptitude search 'openoffice'" dumps a long list on many lines that cannot be used that way.

I'm facing this problem since a month on Fedora 10. I have some 45 packages for upgrade through KPackageKit which belong to KDE.
While I give it to upgrade, it gives me a strange message which says
Multiple packages exist that are not compatible with each other.
This is usually due to mixing packages from different software sources.
When I press the details button, I get these details.
ERROR with rpm_check_debug vs depsolve:
libkwalletbackend.so.4 is needed by kdebase-runtime-4.2.0-7.fc10.i386
Please report this error at [URL]
I get this message only for the KDE packages. I have libkwalletbackend.so.4 in my /usr/lib directory.
