Ubuntu :: Installing Local .deb Pkg With Synaptic?
Apr 4, 2010
Is it possible to install a local .deb package with synaptic package manager? I managed to trash network-manager-gnome removing it by mistake instead of a package with a similar name..... oops. So now have no network connections. I downloaded the following file network-manager-gnome_0.8~a~git.20091014t134532.4033e62-0ubuntu1_i386.deb via a computer with a net connection. and now have it on a usb key. Can I point the synaptic package manager to the local package and install like that, or do I have to do it via the console. I also have my original Karmic 9.10 disk, which I imagine has the package on as well. Is there a way to add it via the system installer?

I have a long list of files like the following examples mentioned in the Synaptic Package Manager's 'Installed (local or obsolete)':
linux-headers-2.6.24-18
linux-headers-2.6.24-18-generic
linux-image-2.6.24-18-generic
with the last two digits ranging from 14 to 23.
I currently have Kernel Linux 2.6.24-26-generic loaded (according to System->Administration->System Monitor->'System' tab) [I'm using 8.04 LTS].
I'm hesitating in removing them because I assume that the Synaptic Package Manager would remove these when doing the upgrades. My suspicion is that these are still needed for later versions and removing them would cause a few problems to say the least.
Am I safe to either 'Remove' or 'Completely Remove'?
It would be great to save all that space if these can be removed.

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.

I'm having a problem installing programs via synaptic. supposing I issue the command: sudo apt-get install <program> (and assuming the program is in the repositories), I get an error like follows:
I have no idea what this means, and googling has not turned up anything appreciably helpful. It does this for anything I try to install via synaptic, both the command line or gui versions.
The full error output is below:

I'm new to debian. I just installed Debian 6 via a single CD image. For some reason, I cannot find any kind of application that allows me to select software or install it. I've tried the instructions in many different threads on how to install software including synaptic package manager, software-center, etc. None of them seem to work or maybe there is something that I don't understand about this process in Debian.
I've used Ubuntu, openSuse, and !# so I am relatively familiar with terminal and installing software using different methods, but am not used to not having any kind of package manager to work with. I've downloaded "Software Center" for debian but terminal will not dpkg the package, advising errors. How to install some kind of package manager; "Software Center" or Synaptic would be preferable. I really want to try out Debian and get to know this operating system.

I open up Synaptic Package Manager, I get the dialogue, "You have 1 broken package, use the Broken Filter to locate it." So I do, and I find flashplugin-nonfree. So I try to reinstall it, and the two packages that are installed are flashplugin-nonfree and flashpluin-installer. However, I always get this error message:
[code]...
how I can fix it? I know it has SOMETHING to do with conflicting packages

I wish to use the new Eclipse Galileo, and so far it works fine... out of my home directory.I would like to install this system-wide, so that all my users can use it just the same.I assume the destination would be /usr/local/bin, but when I put the directory there and link the executable as /usr/local/bin/eclipse (linking to /usr/local/bin/eclipse_bin/eclipse), I get shared library errors.This was a failed attempt at a hack, so I would like to know: where can I put the files so as to properly do this installation?

I am trying to install ubuntu from an ISO on a FAAT32 Partition. Is there a way of booting into the FAT32 partition with the ISO on it, and mount it to install from, from the Debian installer ?I have been searching for over a month now and still have not found anything that gives some information on how to do that. I remember that i was able to make a rescue disk for Fedora 5 and use the installer from it and select the partition and then the iso i wanted to use.

I have created a local repository to install linux with. (class assignment) Created the following file structure off of /html directory;
/yum/base/13/i386
/yum/updates/13/i386
copied the contents of the packages from my fedora dvd;
mount /dev/cdrom /mnt
cd /mnt/Packages
cp -v * /var/www/html/yum/base/13/i386
cd /
umount /mnt
using rsync against fedora mirror updated the base to have compete set of .rpm packages from the Everything directory. Ran createrepo /var/www/html/yum/base/13/i386 Verified repodata folder was created and the contents are correct, shown below
[Code]....
Boot the PC and start the install using a kickstart file (if you need to see it let me know), all runs fine until it gets to the point of resolving dependency then it errors out - unable to resolve dependency against the repository. May not be the exact phrasing but generally speaking to that effect.

Is it possible to partition a hard drive with Debian already installed and put a live disc image in the second one and use grub to boot it. Then using this boot to the installer and install to the first partition.The answer for why I want to try this is that I have a computer that runs a robot that needs Debian. There is no CD, USB, or internet currently on the drive. there is an Ethernet plug, but It won't work until the OS is in place. We tried taking the hard drive and installing Debian to it from a USB stick on another computer, but it has the wrong Ethernet drivers and we can't get it to talk to the internet on the robot's computer.
Everything else is fine, but with out an internet connection the robot will not work.If your interested the board is an old Versalogic VSBC-8 and the robot is a Pioneer 1 from Mobile robotics. The hard drive (not that it matters) is a standard 80GB IDE notebook drive from Western Digital.

I was under the impression that if I have any programs not installed by the package manager, they belong in /usr/local rather than /usr. But if I put the executable in /usr/local/bin, and the jar files into /usr/ local /lib, I get runtime errors about being unable to load the Java classes. So I resorted to putting things in /usr/bin and /usr/lib and it worked fine.Is this something that can only be corrected by compiling differently, or am I missing an installation step?

I have fedora 11 as a host and two guest os rhel5 on VirtualBox. I wan to install a local repository on fedora 11 so that my guest os rhel5 can install packages through http with yum.To do this what I have done so far:
>Install httpd
>chkconfig httpd on
>service httpd start
>createrepo -v /var/www/html/rhel5/
>create file rhel5.repo in guest os /etc/yum.repos.d/
Code:
[RHEL5]
name=rhel5
baseurl=http://192.168.1.1/rhel5
gpgcheck=0
Here 192.168.1.1 is my fedora 11 local IP but have a look on the following error msg:
Code:
[pc5 ~]# yum install nfs*
Loading "rhnplugin" plugin
Loading "installonlyn" plugin
[code]....
fact is same process i have followed when i had rhel5 as a host os and i found no problem.Is there any problem with fedora 11 createrepo command that does not allow rhel5 to install package over http.

Sometimes when internet goes down and any mail send then it bounced back immediately saying domain not found. Can u please tell me how i configure to hold all mails in postfix server rather than bounce when internet fails and will pass through when restored the internet around 15-30 minutes?

I'd like a way to see all of the devices on my local network and what their local IP address is. I recall that I used wireshark to troubleshoot a similar problem a while back, but it doesn't seem to have a way to see all of the devices- only the traffic. (I'd like to do this without having to physically interface with my router if possible, and I am in an encrypted network if that matters)

I have installed a web server on my local network. Everything is well configured and web pages are shown correctly from Internet (outside the local network) using the domain or the public IP.The issue is if I try to see that web pages (using the domain or the public IP) from inside the local network. In that case the router config page (192.168.1.1) is shown instead of the web pages.From inside the local network I'm only able to see the web pages using the internal IP address (192.168.1.XX).

One of Konqueror's unique features is that i can name a local process as the action in a form. When i submit that form, the local process is executed. Very helpful for certain offline tasks. What would make it even better is if i could find a way to pass some data to that local process from the html page. This could be the content of a hidden input item, etc. Alternatively, if there is a way for Konqueror to create or update a local file with data from the html page, that would acheive the same end.

What command would you use to read about the sync system call (not the sync command)? How would you read a local man page for sync that was kept in the /usr/local/share/man?

I am trying to install tilp, a program for the link between a computer and a Texas Instruments calculator. I have downloaded all the packages to a local directory. I tried telling yum to install all the packages at the same time, though, the dependencies still fail to resolve (though they are all in the directory). I don't know if it would be safe to force install without the dependencies (even though I would install them later).

I've got an Ubuntu server hosting our websites and other various things here in our own home. We recently switched to a router that doesn't support loopback (abomination), so I've set up hosts files on our computers so we can access our own sites when on our home LAN.
However, we often take our laptops as we travel about, and I'm guessing due to the hosts files when we try to access our sites, it'll look on whatever local network we're connected to for our server, which won't work, obviously.
Is there a way to set up something like a hosts file that'll only try to look up the local IP of the server when we're on a specific network (our home one), or have one that tries to look for the local IP first, then proceeds to try and resolve the domain name and use the external IP if the local IP doesn't work?

I want to install some extra software on my Debian system (TexLive and NLTK) for which I can't find recent versions in the repositories. Both use their script-based installers. Where is the best place to put these on a Debian system? /usr/local/ or /opt or another place? Is that best I use ROOT or does that not matter?

I have a Dell PowerEdge 1650 server with 3 NICs in it. I am trying to use one NIC (eth0) to connect to the internet, the second NIC (eth1) to share the internet connection to a LAN, and the third NIC (eth2) to connect to the LAN.
It is running Ubuntu server 8.10
The problem that I'm having is that NetworkManager (version 0.7.0) keeps setting eth2 as the default connection, and then I don't get any internet at all from the server.
My main goal is to be able to share files from the server to computers on the LAN. The secondary goal is to have a virtual machine hosting a Halo server, connected through eth2, so that it can host LAN games. But that is a secondary goal after I get the connections to work.
I've been looking around and finding other people who have done bits and pieces of this, but not the whole thing. I had been hoping to simply use the NetworkManger, but I don't mind editing config files.
Also I can't seem to find any good instructions on editing the /etc/network/interfaces file. The man file is incomplete, and everything seems to point back to the man file.
