If you use the high-level package managers (apt-get, aptitude, synaptic ...)
they will solve these dependencies for you automatically.

For further questions please ask the debian-us...@lists.debian.org list.

Debian / Repositories / Packages

2010-04-25 Thread Piotrek P
Hello there!
I would like to ask about some debian packages thing. On site
packages.debian.org we can find all official packages and theirs depends.
How should I know what depend should I install first to install another and
the another up to last one? Is there any list? For example... when I try to
install xorg I am able to download all packages that are needed but making
dpkg -i *.deb sometimes give me error about depends. Wheny trying dpkg -i
*.deb once again, it all goes well. I can reproduce this error for xorg if
needed.

Best regards
Peter

Possible GPL violation involving Debian distribution, and some packages within

2010-04-25 Thread Eric Rucker
I recently purchased a Hewlett-Packard t5325 thin client. It uses HP's
ThinPro operating system, which is a derivative of Debian Lenny.

A written offer for the source code is included, stating that source
is available at ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/tcdebian, but there is nothing
available for the t5325, only other models.

I have attempted to contact HP, and got a response that the code is
unavailable, which is included below.

If additional information is required, please e-mail me at bhtoo...@gmail.com.
