Ubuntu Installation :: Install Local Packages Using Synaptic?

Jun 17, 2010

I wonder if i can install packages that already exist in local directory using synaptic for example: I downloaded a set of programs with there dependencies and stored them in whatever folder, and i'd reinstalled my distro and i need to install just google chrome browser for instance, it's will be very difficult to install it among other packages. it will be very useful if i forced synaptic to install chrome locally instead of downloading and installing them from the internet.

Software :: Uninstall 81 Packages To Install Qt-devel Into KDE4.x?

May 23, 2011

I found out that to compile my new kernel - which requires 'qmake' - I need to install the "qt-devel" package. Doing so - according to the package manager - would require uninstalling 81 packages and downgrading almost 50 other packages.

I'm running under Fedora 14 w/ KDE and it's asking to remove things like Amarok and OpenOffice. Am I missing a step or something?

Ubuntu Installation :: Synaptic Uninstall Uninstalling Libusb-0.1-4

Feb 7, 2010

Synaptic 0.62.5. When uninstalling libusb-0.1-4, it removes many other unassociated applications (like gnome-desktop, evolution, the kernel in the /boot directory... not nice. See below with a simulated apt-get remove libusb-0.1-4.

Linux hpmaindesktop 2.6.31-19-generic #56-Ubuntu SMP Thu Jan 28 02:39:34 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux

The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:

The following packages will be REMOVED:

I guess I should have checked this before removing for real as it blew away my desktop, boot kernel, etc. Time now to re-install packages.

Ubuntu :: Uninstall App Not Found By Synaptic Or Apt-get - Kobo-desktop

Nov 7, 2010

I don't know how, but on my 64 bit machine I installed this 32 bit deb file: kobo-desktop.deb. I did that while using Ubuntu 10.04. Now I've updated to 10.10, and I can't uninstall it. Searching for "kobo" in Synaptic or USC only gives me a game, and using apt-get I get this error (I've included some output from the last command I run so you can see that my system does recognize that kobo-desktop is ins fact installed):

Errors were encountered while processing:

Ubuntu :: X64: Many Packages Don't Show Up In Synaptic

Feb 24, 2011

For some reason many packages don't show after I enter package names in quick search field. I have to find each package by scrolling through the entire list. For example, typing g++ shows only some lib file, not the C++ package. The same for automake, autoconf and libtools. Synaptic works fine in 32bit ubuntu.

Ubuntu :: Uninstall Packages At Once?

Jul 30, 2011

This might be a simple answer but I cannot figure it out. I recently installed K9Copy and a lot of other packages were installed along with it. Now I want to uninstall it, but only K9Copy uninstalls, not everything else. How can I find and uninstall all the dependent packages that came along with it? Is there a way to get rid of everything at once?

Ubuntu Installation :: Broken Packages In Synaptic

May 7, 2010

During my recent upgrade from 8.04 to 10.04, I got a few error messages concerning the flashplugin-nonfree not installing correctly. A user named carlee helped me get flash working over on the absolute beginner forum, but I've got a related problem still unresolved.Update manager is convinced that my perfectly working flash installation is broken, and insists I update it.However, the update fails every time, telling me E: flashplugin-nonfree: Package is in a very bad inconsistent state - you should reinstall it before attempting a removal.

Opening synaptic, I cannot select the reinstall option for the plugin. Removal and complete removal are my only options, and both give the above error. More problematic, I cannot de-select the flash plugin entirely. It MUST be part of any other package update through synaptic (if I wanted to re-install avant window navigator, for example). And since the flash removal operation fails, synaptic is effectively non-operational.How can I convince my update manager that my fully operational flash is just fine the way it is?

The problem I have is when I try to install software with the Synaptic Package Manager, no packages can be downloaded.

Debian :: How To Uninstall Java Related Packages

Jan 26, 2011

I just blindly install 'java' in GNU/Linux Debian SID -- so I could use it as a plugin for iceweasel -- Unfortunately, things didn't work as expected. I was used to Debian's APT to take care of things for me as it had done for more years than I could remember. (Being a desktop user/programmer and a beginner system network admin). I want a clean install of java plugin for iceweasel. So I want to remove completely all java related packages --

How do I know which is which and if they are safe to remove without affecting any other part of the system? Now, to install -- what do I need to install in order for iceweasel to have the Java plugin and let java work as it should? I prefer from the Debian package. But if it doesn't work, I'll accept JRE from the java site and install them myself.
