As a general note: you should make sure your keep your system up
to date by periodically running 'apt-get update' & 'apt-get upgrade'.
However I suspect you need to purge your old broken package install
first ... I'd say it is screwing up the upgrade ... make sure you
backup at least /etc/aspseek and /var/lib/aspseek first if you want
to recover your old config and data.
..... before you start make sure you have 'script' installed:
apt-get install script
Now start a script session by running 'script', then continue below.
Once you have finished type 'exit'. Script will create a file named
'typescript' in the current directory which is a complete journal
of your shell activities while running script. If you still have
problems with installation please send me a copy of your typescript
so that I can diagnose your problem with a little more ease.
now .....
To purge run:
dpkg --purge aspseek-common aspseek-libmysqldb aspseek \
spseek-cgi-common aspseek-cgi libapache-mod-aspseek \
libaspseek-dev libaspseek0
Once you've done the above you can reinstall as follows:
apt-get install aspseek
This will install the core packages:
aspseek-common # common files /etc/aspseek/[tables,langmap]
aspseek-libmysqldb # mysql support
aspseek # index & searchd, /etc/aspseek/*.conf,
/etc/init.d/aspseek etc.
You then need to decide how you want to run s.cgi, either apache
module or cgi (or both) may be installed using:
apt-get install aspseek-cgi
apt-get install libapache-mod-aspseek
This will install:
spseek-cgi-common # common files /etc/aspseek/s.htm &
/var/www/aspseek/img
libaspseek0 # aspseek client library
aspseek-cgi # s.cgi
libapache-mod-aspseek # /usr/lib/apache/1.3/mod_aspseek.so
The only package that is not installed in the above process is
libaspseek-dev which contains the static link library and header
files needed for developing a cgi client etc. It's unlikely
that you'll need this unless you plan on modifying sc.c or
mod_aspseek.c.
