I completed an installation of Ubuntu 10.10 LTS 64-bit as a guest operating system on a VMWare server. Somehow during the installation process, I neglected to install a GUI desktop. I want to install the gnome desktop, but I am running into a series of errors similar to the one shown below:

I have downloaded the entire Debian 5-dvd set. I want synaptic, apt-get and aptitude to first check online if there's a new version of the packages selected to install, if there's a new version, then get the packages online and install, if not, then ask to insert the corresponding dvd and install from that. Is there anyway to configure this?
View 8 Replies View RelatedI am working on a project which targets both 32 and 64 bit architectures at the moment. My system is amd64. I added i386 architecture using this guide. However, my problem is
Code: Select allapt-get install package-name:i386
prompts the removal of currently installed packages (amd64 arch.) which is the problem.

Some of the packages I am talking about are

Now, as of now, I want to carry out the compilation using 32 bit libraries, however, I really don't want to install 64bit version of all prerequisites each time I switch the compilation from 32 bit to 64. Is there any way to have both architectures at the same time?

Does anyone has the information regarding a collective repository for ubuntu download packages which provides a single download for all the packages or selective packages, may be some torrent sort of links.I know of packages.ubuntu.com but there the packages are dispersed. Downloading each one of them requires a hell lot of time. Doesn't anyone has this information where a one click download of packages is facilitated.

View 6 Replies View RelatedWhat the hey??? I was looking to install Virtualbox via Synaptic the other day and I found a package with "~Ubuntu~lucid" next to the latest version. I have all confidence in the Mint team and I'm sure they scrutinized these packages for compatibility, but a little disclaimer would have been nice. I do not want any Ubuntu packages on my system. The least they could do was package the source code into a pure .deb.

I know it is possible to do it manually, but then you would need to know all the package names, and I don't.
I want to install all the packages from BackTrack into my Ubuntu installation. I really don't like the idea of having it in a VM and having a separate partition for it is even more out of the question. I know that the folks at BackTrack doesn't like it when people leech their repositories, but that's what you get for releasing open source software. Stupid? maybe.. A valid reason? probably not.. Do I still want it? Yes.
Another edit: I have now given up on this as it seems impossible to get it to work even by manually installing packages.
I have set up a local YUM repository to install own modify packages om my clients.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI had some major bugs with KDE 4.3 and 4.4 and the only way that I could fix them was to install the entire KDE 4.5. This was mid-Summer. Now I would like to upgrade to Maverick the proper way and have 4.5 in a stock repo.
I managed to get most of kde back to stock by luck and uninstall/reinstalling kdebase stuff and kubuntu-desktop a couple of times. A pain in the neck trying to find important packages that are already installed from a previous PPA.
BTW my sources.list is stock right now.
Does anyone know of a way to search for installed PPA packages that are not in the stock repository?

View 6 Replies View RelatedI enables some alpha repositories on my device(n900) and as expected, upgrades from there broke a lot of things. Now I disabled the repository but the newer versions of the packages are still installed. Is there a way to check for all packages, if the installed version is newer than the repository version? So that I can downgrade them? The package management is apt. The main problem is I don't exactly remember what I upgraded so manual (apt-get remove/ then install) downgrade is not much of an option. I think I changed some python libraries that broke my system.

So Im using CentOS 5, trying to install phpmyadmin for my server. Ive done it before but had to re-image my server because of some networking issues. This time when I go to do it I add two more repositories and go through and give all the appropriate ( I believed ) priorities. When I try to install phpmyadmin, I am getting messages that I need php5.2. When I try to install the dependencies, I get the message that i have "427 packages excluded due to repository priority restrictions." How do I fix this?
[URL] This is the guide I used to install phpmyadmin. I installed all the pre-reqs and Ive double and triple checked them all . . . . Ive also installed another repository, utterramblings. All to no avail. If code from the config files are needed I can pull them

The reason is that when I came to office this morning the workstation is completely turned off for some reason. Since the air-conditioner is turned off in the office overnight, I suspect the temperature is too high for the cpu. Is there a script to output the temperature to a file periodically so that I can pinpoint the exact cause of the shutdown ?
