Ubuntu :: Dependency Tree For Canonical-supported SDL Packages?
Jun 17, 2010
Some time ago I installed SDL in Ubuntu 10.04 using Synaptic Package Manager. Now, there are upgrades available for the following packages:
libsdl1.2-dev
libsdl1.2debian
libsdl1.2debian-pulseaudio
Trying to upgrade them seemed to reveal contradictory dependencies. If I select "mark for upgrade" on libsdl1.2-dev or libsdl1.2debian, Synaptic says I have to remove libsdl1.2debian-pulseaudio. But if I select "mark for upgrade" on libsdl1.2debian-pulseaudio, Synaptic tells me that I have to upgrade libsdl1.2-dev and libsdl1.2debian! I'm worried about breaking something, so I haven't upgraded yet. Is there an error in the dependency tree, or am I missing something obvious?

After reading this announcement, I don't understand if Xubuntu 10.04, or others ubuntu 10.04 variants, will be also LTS. What I understand is that :
- Ubuntu 10.04 (Gnome) Desktop Edition is a LTS.
- Ubuntu 10.04 Server Edition is a LTS
- Ubuntu 10.04 Netbook Edition is NOT a LTS
- Kubuntu 10.04 seems to be a LTS
- Xubuntu 10.04
- Mythbuntu 10.04
- Ubuntu Studio 10.04
Obviously, I can't understand how some variant could be LTS and not some others : they are all using the same repositories. So, Canonical would maintain updates for only selected packages ?Does anyone knows more about that LTS attribution ?

I found it easiest to embed narp into the gtk+-2.0 installation because all I needed to do was tweak the Makefile.am and Makefile.in files and let configure do the rest.This is a hack. I've failed at getting my own makefiles to work.
Would anyone point me in the right direction on how to properly make an installer for Linux? Also, what is the correct/common directory tree for Linux software packages? Any more suggestions on proceeding with this project using community standards?

I wanted to install playonlinux under my ubuntu10.04 in order to run IE7 for test purposes.When i launched the installation, it mentioned that it depends on python-wxgtk2.8 so i went to the "Ubuntu.packages" and downloaded it but when trying to install it, i found out that it depends on python-wxversion2.x so i tried to install it but its dependency was on python-wxgtk2.8 ( i am in cycle now).

I am new to Fedora (using Constantine). I want to like it and it works nicely with on my Thinpad but there is a problem that would make me swith back to Ubuntu/Mint if I don't find a solution to it: I get dependency errors all the time missing librpm.so.0()(64bit) and librpmio.so.0()(64bit)
First I had this problem installing KDEnline and I thought, this program might be to exotic but the same problem stopped the installation of OpenOffice which is very strange. Is installing programs always such difficult for all the different packages like for Open Office? Is Fedora maybe to difficult for me as a intermediate user?

Is there any way that I can get a list of packages (on the command line) that have been installed manually i.e. all those that haven't been installed as dependencies? I think this must be possible as apt seems to know which dependency packages are no longer required i.e. apt-get autoremove

uninstall landscape on my Ubuntu 9.04 headless NAS because I do not use it. Running an uninstall simulation: "sudo aptitude -s remove landscape-client" produces: The following packages will be REMOVED:
acl{u} hal{u} hal-info{u} landscape-client landscape-common{u} libffi5{u} libhal-storage1{u} libhal1{u} libpolkit-dbus2{u} libpolkit-grant2{u} libsmbios2{u} pm-utils{u} policykit{u} powermgmt-base{u} python-dbus{u} python-gobject{u} python-pexpect{u} python-pycurl{u} python-smartpm{u} python-twisted-bin{u} python-twisted-core{u} python-twisted-web{u} python-zopeinterface{u} smartdimmer{u}
0 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 24 to remove and 3 not upgraded. To me it seems that it want to uninstall support for acl among other things. But I don't want to remove support for acl as I use it on my files. And also should "hal" be removed?

I'm want to reach others who have paid for Canonical support services.I'd like this thread to collect various impressions -- PRO and CON -- along with suggestions for using paid support.Please consider a linux admin with under-10 ubuntu boxes to support, who do they turn to for help?How does your need for help mesh with the contracted services as written?How does your need for help mesh with the contracted services in practice?Please avoid flame and vitriol about paying for support.Please avoid flame or vitriol about Canonical in general.
Some people need a mother-ship to contact when the going gets rough.Many times I've been unable to create the right question(s) to get online answers without spending (wasting) time getting nothing from searches and postings. Anything in a niche makes the situation that much worse. Other times the answers involved hand code patches and build something, etc -- skills I have but that are rusty enough to mean long hours to deploy.When does paid support make sense?
What skills are needed to find online answers 80% of the time?If this post steps on forum rules, I apologize in advance and expect the moderators to spank me accordingly. If this post is okay, as is, I expect the moderators to slap others who otherwise disrupt the dialog.

I've been using an NVIDIA driver from NVIDIA's site (190.53) for a while. Now I want to upgrade to Lucid.
1) Is it recommended to uninstall this driver prior to upgrading to Lucid?
2) If yes, how do I go about this? Please be specific, since I don't want to presume anything and make a mistake.

Until Karmic Koala I could enable/disable services at startup (such as ssh or mysql) by issuing a update-rc.d -f someservice remove. On reboot, it would no longer run, and I could re-enable if necessary by, for example, running a update-rc.d someservice default.
However, it seems that now in Lucid Lynx this no longer works. For example, if I do a nmap localhost I can see that the ports for the respective services are open, therefore I assume they are likely running (which an attempted access confirms). For example, if I do a /etc/init.d/ssh stop, the ssh service is respawned. I've found that service ssh stop or initctl stop ssh effectively stops the service (i.e. it is no longer "respawned" if "killed"). But so far I haven't found documentation that conclusively indicates how to disable the service start on (re)boot.
So I ask you, what is now the currently "canonical" or "standard" way to enable/disable these services (particularly ones such as ssh or mysql) from starting on boot on Ubuntu? I'd like to avoid having to remove the respective packages if possible (as some posts suggest), since in some occasions I'm interested in manually running those services -- therefore, having to install/uninstall packages is impractical.

After moving to Lucid, I have no flashplayer. Eventually, I tracked the problem to a missing Cannonical repository. I inserted the line in the sources list: [URL] Now Synaptic reports:
E: Type [URL] is not known on line 45 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list
E: The list of sources could not be read. Go to the repository dialog to correct the problem.
E: _cache->open() failed, please report.
I have re-checked everything I can think of, and remain baffled!

I assume that uninstalling / disabling the new package canonical-census will have no adverse effects? It is not something that I would choose to install if it was on offer, so I don't intend accepting it by stealth.

I just learned that warsow 0.6 is out, and went to see if it was available in the ubuntu software center yet, as opposed to going and downloading and installing it manually from the warsow website. The ubuntu repo's still have version 0.5, and at the bottom of the page it says:
"Updates: Canonical does not provide updates for Warsow. Some updates may be provided by the Ubuntu community."
So if I wanted to 'update' this item in the repo's for the better of the community what would that entail?

I'm looking for some software that could help me make a family/work tree. The only problem is that I would like to add other types of connections other than the blood related ones, such as worked with, studied with, supervised someone else etc. And perhaps have the possibility of adding some data about each person and export in a format that can be used by other programs as well.

I initially set up my filesystem on a single disk, normal, plain vanilla, with a partition for /var.Just as an example let's say I have in this file system a path /var/lib/temp.Under /temp I want 4 directories /one, /two, /three, and /four so I get /var/lib/temp/one and /var/lib/temp/two, etc. So I created them.Now I want to separate the directories /one, /two, /three and /four such that each is on its own partition. I create the four partitions and then copy into the appropriate partition /one, /two, /three, and /four. Of course all the stuff inside of those directories are moved over as well.
In fstab I locate a mount point called /var/lib/temp, located just below the /var mount point, and it is on the line with the partition that holds /one.Save fstab, mount -a and it works. Back to fstab, add a second line below the first with same mount point but this time with the partition for /two.Mount -a and /one fails and /two is up. So yes, I can't just put the fstab file together the way I did. I see that clear as day. Last line wins. What I don't see is how to make it right.

Are there any other archiving tools than tar that preserve Linux file permissions and user/group flags? I want to create archives of a directory tree on my ubuntu box. The directory trees are large, a first run with tar cvpzf archive.tgz /home/foo/bar yielded a 5GB archive. I also want to keep all permissions and other flags and special files.I'm fine with a 5GB archive, however to look inside that archive -- since it is a compressed tar archive -- the whole 5GB have to be decompressed first! (Or so it appears when opening it with the archive viewer -- I'm happy to be corrected.)So I need a way to "backup" a directory (tree) while preserving full filesystem attributes and right and creating an archive with an "index" that hasn't to be decompressed for browsing its contents. An archive is either a single file, or a (small) set of files that carries full and complete information within this file/s. That is, it can live on any filesystem (size permitting), it can be burnt onto a DVD, you can split it (after which the point of this question is really lost - but still), ...

I have a home storage of many drives which are seldom accessed, and extremely seldom written to. So, I made several RAID1 arrays with "write-mostly" drives in each one, so that all the drives spin down after a while, and if they are accessed, only one drive in each array has to spin up. This way, I hope to minimize the risk of losing anything due to mechanical shock or wear.
But it was not so easy. First, the write-mostly drives did spin up on every read request due to a bug in the kernel, so I managed to get the fix accepted into the newer kernels (which is my largest contribution to the Linux development so far. See [URL] .....) Now, if I read directly from the array, it works as expected (only the first drive spins up); but if I create a filesystem there (ext4) and read from it, the second drive still spins up anyway. (Does ext4 write something when it reads a file?.. I have it mounted with relatime, so AFAIK it shouldn't...)
Well, I thought, I'll just mount the filesystems read-only and remount them if I need to modify the data there, which is not very often, to say the least. Also, this way the drives don't have to spin up every system shutdown to unmount the filesystems; during a power outage, it used to take a lot of time for them to spin up one by one just to unmount, while my UPS had to survive long enough for them to finish. That's one more problem solved.
But I decided to improve even further. Sometimes I just want to see the contents of those arrays without even accessing some files (for example, when I accidentally click the wrong network drive button in Windows, or when I just want to see if I have something there or not). If I read the directory trees during startup and keep them cached, then those drives won't even have to spin up at those moments! The question is, is there a way to do it? I remember Linus boasting about our kernel being the best at caching the filesystem trees, and I know there is vmtouch [URL] .... which allows us to keep some files cached, but what about the directory tree itself?.. If I simply "find" all the files there, it seems to work, but they get evicted from cache sooner or later...

I think I've finally settled on Slackware, but I kept missing Arch or FreeBSD for some reason. Last night I realized it's the abs/ports systems they have. I love the freedom to rebuild any package from source so I can configure build options and not worry about how packages from third party sites were compiled (missing features, patent restrictions, etc.).
SlackBuilds.org is awesome, and according to that site Pat uses SlackBuilds to build the official packages. Wouldn't it be great if there was a /var/slackbuilds/ directory with subdirectories for each software set for the officially supported software and then a subdirectory for each category on SlackBuilds.org?I would really like to see this in Slackware some time. It would help organize all the available software in the official sets and SlackBuilds.org and make it easy to compile anything. Other software would, as usual, be downloaded from third-party sources and simply installed that way.
