Ubuntu :: Update From 10.10 To 11.04 - Packages Don't Seem To Work

May 3, 2011

when i tried to update Ubuntu 10.10 to 11.04, somehow the installation stopped. Thinking that the installation was completed i restarted my desktop, only to find out that i have over 600 broken packages. Fixing the packages don't seem to work because he is unable to correct the dependencies. My guess is that i now have half Ubuntu 10.10 and half Ubuntu 11.04

Ubuntu Servers :: Every Time Logged In Via SSH Got A Message Telling There Where Packages To Update Including A Security Update?

Feb 11, 2011

I was running 10.04 LTS and had decided to stick to the LTS versions as I'm now running my machine as a server and don't want to be updating regularly.Every time I logged in via SSH I got a message telling me there where packages to update including a security update. So I did a search to find out how to perform an update on Ubuntu server from the command line.What I found was to do this:sudo apt-get updatesudo apt-get dist-upgradeAfter doing that I rebooted but now my machine gives me this message:

init: ureadahead-other main process (794) terminated with status 4Your disk drives are being checked for errors, this may take some timePress C to cancel all checks currently inprogressI'm not pressing C yet and leaving it alone to finish, but I noticed when the machine booted that one of the options for booting talked about Ubuntu 10.10, so I'm worried that I've updated from 10.04 LTS to 10.10 by accident?

Ubuntu :: How To NOT Keep Update Deb Packages?

Mar 9, 2011

When I allow Update Manager to download and install security and other updates it saves the deb package files in /var/cache/apt/archives. I don't really need or want to keep these files. I seem to recall that in versions years ago the default was to delete them after installation. But the issue at the moment is how to get 10.04 and later to automatically delete the files after installation. Space is not a concern on my desktop PC nor my server. It is an issue with various virtual machine installations as they are limited in disk space and the more they take up the more there is to backup.

I have tried telling Synaptic to delete the files after installation but this does not change the performance of Update Manager.

Ubuntu :: Update Packages Not Authenticated?

Sep 10, 2010

I read something like said:

Update Packages not authenticated so imagine.

I wonder why (and how) a 'contaminated' update/package can get access to the Ubuntu server.

what I have on my desktop waiting for my approval to download?

The information of those updates is as follows:

1- Firefox
Changes for the versions:
3.6.8+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.10.04.1
3.6.9+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.10.04.1

Ubuntu :: Download Packages For Update From Another Computer?

Jul 17, 2010

My internet connection is one where I have to pay according to the amount of data transferred and Ubuntu updates require large downloads. I was wondering if there was some way to export the list of packages required for an update in ubuntu and then go and download them from another PC. (The other PC in question will be running windows).I'd love to know of any apps that can do this ..If there aren't any can someone tell me if there is a way to do this? I am just getting used to Linux but I still have no experience at all with writing shell scripts (which I suppose would be needed for this sort of thing).

So in summary, this is what I want. Synaptic (or any other package manager in Linux) should generate a file with all the packages that should be downloaded. A program on the PC with a better internet connection then interprets this file and downloads the packages creating a local copy of the packages. These local copies are then transferred to the Linux box which required the updates and the updates are applied..

Ubuntu :: Update Trying To Remove Important Packages Again

Sep 11, 2010

I load the update manager, it says partial upgrade needed, then it asks me if I want to uninstall important stuff like the network manager and ubuntu desktop and etc. No I don't want to uninstall the network manager, how would it complete the upgrade with no internet to download the upgrade from? And what would be the point in having an upgrade if I won't be able to do anything on it! This is happening all over again, heres the previous thread that mentioned pretty much what happening, along with a video somewhere in there. (It says I need to make 15 posts to post [URL].

What I'm wanting to do is Do the upgrade it keeps bugging me about, but not have to remove anything at the same time. The previous thread I just kept getting told what to do and was told it always confirms me before upgrading that its about to delete something, I already know that. I know it is confirming it, but I want to do the upgrade but disable the uninstalling part of it. Is there any mod to the synaptic manager that could possibly fix this? I'll even go as far as to compress my entire ubuntu partition into an iso and upload it somewhere for someone to take a look at (if anyone would possibly know what program would do this besides parimage or whatever, that's trying to remove the files as well in order to install).

The strangest thing is going on. I just did a fresh install of 9.10; however, apt-get upgrade returns different results then Update Manger found under System > Administration > update Manager. In addition, the apt-get upgrade method excludes a few upgrades from being installed. These upgrades are bind9, and a few for FireFox. Has anyone run into this issue recently?

Ubuntu :: Update Manager: Installing Untrusted Packages?

Feb 2, 2011

i'm getting an error when trying to run my update manager. i had been having a problem updating my opera, but just today my current package isn't downloading. the error i am getting is:

"Requires installation of untrusted packages The action would require the installation of packages from not authenticated sources." the detail info is:

"computer-janitor computer-janitor-gtk empathy empathy-common icedtea-6-jre-cacao icedtea6-plugin libc-bin libc-dev-bin libc6 libc6-dev libnautilus-extension1 nautilus nautilus-data nautilus-sendto-empathy openjdk-6-jre openjdk-6-jre-headless openjdk-6-jre-lib opera ubuntu-docs upstart"

i tried to just ignore that, so i unclicked it (just wasn't interested in dealing with it right away), and go on {this is how i had been ignoring the same error on my opera update for a week or so} --- and so when i tried going on, i got same above error except with this detail:

"empathy empathy-common icedtea-6-jre-cacao icedtea6-plugin libc-bin libc-dev-bin libc6 libc6-dev libnautilus-extension1 nautilus nautilus-data nautilus-sendto-empathy openjdk-6-jre openjdk-6-jre-headless openjdk-6-jre-lib opera ubuntu-docs upstart" ps- i am a pseudo novice who is trying to learn how to use the terminal, so if it's not too much of a pain, i like terminal directions,

Ubuntu :: Packages Update Errors - Broken Dependencies

Mar 12, 2011

I have a computer with 128 ko of RAM (a very old one). I installed yesterday ubuntu 8 because ubuntu 9 requires 512 ko of RAM and was very slow. Now, I have problems to update packages and to install every thing. I changed the sources.list because it seems that links are no more available according to the error messages. (I have put many adresses for ubuntu 9 because I think the kernel is the same not as the kernel for ubuntu 10). But new problems have occurred like "broken dependencies". Now I want to correct, and I don't know how? I'm still a beginner with this OS.

Ubuntu Installation :: Update Manager Going To Delete Some Of Packages?

Apr 28, 2011

Going from 10.10 to 11.04 and I get this message:[URL].. I honestly have no idea what most of those are (yes I'm a huge noob), so it's possible that it's necessary to delete some of them, but Handbrake? Open Office? Why would it delete those? What possible reason could there be?

Additionally, what does "no longer needed" mean? Is it going to delete those packages too?

Ubuntu Servers :: Which Command To Automatically Update Packages

May 11, 2011

I'm currently writing a script that will update the software packages on six ubuntu servers so I don't have to go in and update them manually constantly. Problem is, I'm not sure which command I should use to do this the most effective and safe way. Currently, I use sudo apt-get upgrade -y on my own machine, though I can see how this could be dangerous on production servers. I was in the IRC chat and I was told aptitude safe-upgrade is something I may want to look into. Is there a way I can only update security related stuff instead of everything? What do you guys suggest would be the best way going about this? Another issue I can foresee is certain packages that have an interactive prompt. While apt-get upgrade -y takes care of most of this, MySQL would fail with this as it opens up it's own prompt. Anyway I could make my script skip these types of prompts, so I can go back and update them later manually?
