Problems with apt-get
I'm not sure if my problem is related to my system's configuration (emulated PPC) or PowerPC in general. When I try to install a package, I get a message that the file couldn't be found and the URL that was attempted. I can copy the URL and pass it to wget and the file is retrieved -- no problem. If anyone has a clue as to what's wrong I would really appreciate it. I'm investigating using Debian as the OS for an embedded product. The product looks like it will have to have a PowerPC processor based on some other system requirements. I'm trying to get a head start on the software side by using qemu-system-ppc to simulate the system. The following screen capture shows the problem. Note that I was able to use wget to retrieve all the files apt-get claimed were not found. Also, my terminal session is an X11 xterm sent from the debian system to my desktop's X11 server so if networking was failing, my display would have gone away. dpoe@debian-ppc:~$ sudo apt-get install evince thunar Reading package lists...

This is ugly, of course; the proper solution to this kind of problem
involves replacing -get with itude.

Having Problems with apt-get update and apt-get upgrade
I just completed an apt-get update and apt-get upgrade on my Debian lenny machine. I noticed that evolution, which is installed on this machine, is still at version 2.10 and the latest in testing is version 2.22. If I do an apt-get install evolution, apt wants to delete a huge number of packages and update another long list: 54 upgraded, 34 newly installed, 22 to remove and 454 not upgraded. Need to get 154MB of archives. After unpacking 6995kB of additional disk space will be used. My question is why didn't evolution get updated when I did an apt-get update and apt-get upgrade?

Aren't lenny and testing the same thing? Currently yes, they are. My guess is that evolution (and probably lots of other packages) hasn't been upgraded because you used 'upgrade' instead of 'dist-upgrade'. Most of the times it is enough, but with testing and unstable you sometimes have to use 'dist-upgrade'. If you have packages on hold after 'upgrade' you should also try 'dist-upgrade' Read the manpage apt-get(8) for the differences between the two.

no friend, the error continues, i try this:

APT
{
APT::Cache-Limit 1;
CDROM
{
NoMount True;
};
};
Acquire
{
cdrom

};
and then, with: apt-get update, but i don't get luck.

Hi,
hi, my problem is the next:
when i run apt-get update, debian says me:
...
E: Error de lectura - read (5 Error de entrada/salida)
E: No se pudieron analizar o abrir las listas de paquetes o el
archivo de estado.
my sourcelist is this:
deb http://apt.linex.org/linex2006 sarge linex2006 # gnuLinEx 2006
deb http://security.debian.org/ sarge/updates main contrib #
Seguridad de Debian
deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian sarge main contrib non-free #
Copia de Debian en Alemania
and i don't be able to fix it, i tried with:
apt-get clean, un apt-get autoclean, un apt-get -f install, un dpkg
--configure -a,
and nothing, the error continues.
i detected that the file into /var/lib/dpkg/, which is named 'available'
is
corrupt because i can't open it to read, and the same happens with the
'status' files, also into the same directory.
I had a similar problem in the past and solved it by adding the following
line
in /etc/apt/apt.conf (create the file if you don't have one) :
APT::Cache-Limit 1;
then re-run apt-get update
try a higher value if it does not work, but I don't know what it means
exactly
so maybe there's a risk of breaking something

hmm, not sure about it, but maybe APT::Cache-Limit inside APT{} is redundant
and not understood by apt. Try either APT { Cache-Limit ... } or
APT::Cache-Limit outside of the braces.

Re: dpkg --force-depends causes problems for apt-get later
Hey, thanks a bunch, Dwayne. equivs was exactly the sort of solution I hoped existed. I knew Debian had a rational fix for this but had never used equivs before. First I had to uninstall lgtoclnt so that apt-get would let me do things. Then I installed equivs: apt-get install equivs Then I build a simple controlfile: # cat xlibs.ctl Section: X11 Package: xlibs Version: 4.1.1 Provides: xlibs Description: Xlibs dummy package This package provides dpkg with the information that there is a xlibs package installed. . Now installing lgtoclnt will not push for X support Then I build a dummy package: equivs-build xlibs.ctl And finally: dpkg -i xlibs_4.1.1_all.deb dpkg -i lgtoclnt_6.1-2_i386.deb dpkg -l shows that the package is not real: # dpkg -l | grep xlib ii xlibs 4.1.1 Xlibs dummy package --Donald Teed On 8/19/06, Dwayne C.

Package installation problems with apt-get and dpkg on a Sarge box.
Hi there.
Having a problem with a package installation, and I would appreciate some pointers.
Running Sarge on a HP pc, P4, 256 Mb ram, ide disc etc.
So, in this case, want to install freeswan:
quote
The following NEW packages will be installed:
freeswan
0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Need to get 0B/1951kB of archives.
After unpacking 5473kB of additional disk space will be used.
Preconfiguring packages ...
/quote
But, here it stops and hangs for several minutes (didn't feel like waiting anymore so broke it with Ctrl+c.
Edited this file:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 182 Nov 22 05:51 /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/70debconf
and remarked this line:
# DPkg::Pre-Install-Pkgs {/usr/sbin/dpkg-preconfigure --apt || true;};
Which took me a step further:

(Reading database ... 13604 files and directories currently installed.)
Unpacking freeswan (from .../freeswan_2.04-11.3_i386.deb) ...

But then it hangs again. Looking at top when running the above commands I have these two processes:
2727 root 15 0
7208 7204 1724 S 56.7 1.9 1:50.20
frontend
2735 root 15 0
1112 1108 928 R 43.4 0.3 1:20.77 config
I have tried to apt-get autoclean, apt-get -f install etc, but same thing.
Then I tried to download the package manually from another mirror and
ran dpkg -i, but same thing again, 'hangs' with the above two processes
taking up too many resources.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Niklas

Carl,
That was a very powerful command that I will remember

system. I had to boot off of the floppy and re-run
LILO even. After I got the kernel going the X-windows
system was missing a bunch of things.
The documentation states that apt-get dist-upgrade
is not recommended. I'd have to say that it just
doesn't work; there aren't many places for a user to
go wrong since it's so automated, but it has proven to
be a disaster. I don't think it's me...
Some of the dependency conflicts make no sense. One
that I remember clearly was libstdc++5 needed gcc-3.3
to be configured. The *very next package* was gcc-3.3
that said it needed libstdc++5 to be configured
(WTH?!).
It was all a huge mass of dependency and configuration
conflicts. Both apt-get and dpkg were simply not
up to the task of straightening them out and that
command at the top that you told me just forced dpkg
to do it's worst on that mass of .deb's with very bad
results.
It took over 35 hours to download them all...I'd say
that no one should ever try it; just download the
current iso images and cut CD's. Spare yourself the
grief.

Tim, I am going from stable to testing so that may be the problem. My instinct was that iterating through those packages would eventually resolve the dependency problems but the second try didn't install anything new. It's all good...I tried numerous methods to upgrade ranging from recompiling source from kernel.org to apt-get dist-upgrade.

Serious problems after apt-get dist-upgrade
I downloaded hundreds of packages through an online apt-get dist-upgrade from a fast mirror and then from the central download site; I assumed that they were being installed by apt as it went along (it tok a day and a half by modem) but it seems only bits and pieces were installed. The bits and pieces that were installed were critical ones that seem to have the whole system out of whack. For example, I now have a new kernel (2.4.27-x) and the new lib6c library (2.3.x) going but very little else is up to date. The compiler is 2.95 which puts it out of whack with both the old kernel and the new one, which was compiled with 3.0. I _have_ the gcc-3.3 packages and all its depends sitting in the /var/cache/apt/archives directory, but am forced to go in there with dpkg -i and install all the separate pieces by hand. I tried changing my sources.list to only point to this area but apt seems to think all those .debs have been installed. I tried apt-get --fix-broken dist-upgrade and it said the same thing. APT is convinced all those packages in the archive are installed but most of them are not. I tried to use dselect but was unable to make it work. That was likely my fault as I found the the interface very confusing. If dselect is my only choice I will go back to dpkg -i and laboriously cut and paste all the warnings and do it by hand. __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Address AutoComplete - You start.

How about 'find /var/cache/apt/archives *deb -exec dpkg -i {} \;'?
I'm sure you can do it easier with xargs, but I know the find syntax off the

Lilo/initrd problems after apt-get of new kernel-image -- help needed
Good morning, In trying to get my Armada 4130T laptop's soundcard working I've obtained kernel-image-2.4.22-1-686 and installed it. I also modified the lilo.conf file and it appears to be loading initrd on rebooting the computer. However, as soon as the BIOS loaded successfully message pops up the computer automatically reboots itself. Could someone point me in the right direction as to how to fix this problem?

upgrade; {www,ftp}.kernel.org for 12 hours or so, and mirrors.kernel.org
will be down for 6 days or so.

The only reason I've needed to use FTP in the last few years, other than to download files from locations that don't advertise an HTTP alternative, is when interacting with obsolete machines where for one reason or another I can't get either ssh or a simple web server going. Even for file uploads you probably want to consider a web server that supports HTTP PUT, as that's usually easier to secure. Other than laziness and perhaps lack of handy HTTP PUT clients, although I think the advent of WebDAV support in popular applications is beginning to fix the latter, I can't see a reason to use FTP in the modern world. Debian mirrors still provide it probably mostly because it's always been there (Debian predates HTTP/1.1 by a few years), and because the administrators would get deluged in uninformed e-mail if they turned it off. Maybe somebody should put together canned configuration files for a few popular web servers that provide authenticated upload and anonymous download, together with a set of links to good clients for all popular operating systems. Then we might be able to start killing off the security nightmares that are most FTP servers.

problems with apt-get --- Evolution
I have problems with apt-get, namely he blocks the dist-upgrade since some packets show independencies. The independencies occurs around evolution, namely unmet dependencies with libgal 18. From some reason he alway wants to install libgal 18, with message trying to overwrite `/usr/share/gal/html/gal-api.sgml', which is also in package libgal19. So in fact I don't need libgal 18, with consequence that this package blocks everything. The same happens with libaspell10 : trying to overwrite `/usr/share/aspell/english.dat', which is also in package libaspell4 : also here there is already installed a later version, but still he tries to install it. So what I want, is that these two packages are eliminated from my apt-get list. But how ? The two files are in dependency with evolution. Greetings, Johan

Problems with apt-get offline
I know this is a topic that has been up several times, but I haven't
found an answer for my question.
I have followed the offline document that comes with apt-get, but I
still get into problems.
I do a on the computer connected to the net:
export APT_CONFIG=/opt/disc/apt.conf
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
and perhaps
apt-get install vim vim-gtk
or some other pacakge I want.
Then I put the whole disc directory on a ZIP disc and take it home to my
offline computer (no network card in it)
I copy the disc directory to the /opt and then
export APT_CONFIG=/opt/disc/apt.conf
apt-get check
apt-get --no-d -o dir::etc::status=/var/lib/dpkg/status upgrade
now I get the message:
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
0 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
so there must be something I do wrong since the computer don't find my
downloaded deb files.
I would really like to get apt-get to work as I run Debian Testing on my
offline computer (I need the newer libs than available in potato) and it
is so painful to use dpkg especially because of pacakges that has to be
removed before one can install new etc...
Thanks in advance for any hints!
my /opt/disc looks like this on the online computer:

Problems with apt-get
I installed Debian from cd-rom. I am networked. I want to now manage packages by downloading from http sites. I've copied /etc/apt/apt.conf and /etc/apt/sources.list from another working Linux box. When I run the same command in the other Linux box, apt-get install ssh works fine. However, I get an error when I run on my current box. I get the following error: W: Couldn't stat source package list 'http://non-us.debian.org ... My networking settings are fine. When I ping www.yahoo.com, I get a response. I've tried pinging the http sites in my sources.list and they all respond. Is there something else that I should be looking at? Puzzled.

What modem do you have? My is an ELSA MicroLink 56k. This behavior didn't appear with my old Creatix SG2843 28.8k modem. A week ago I changed my mainboard (overclocking apparently _does_ shorten the lifespan, but it was old nevertheless...) and my modem to a 56k one and now that little nuisance irks me too. I'm not sure whether it's the modem's or the mainboard's fault, but I don't think that the board has anything to do with it. I have a suspicion that the reason might be poff not waiting for the final OK after hangup.

Jan 24 11:14:50 mother pppd[393]: Connect script failed It seems that poff doesn't read the final OK from the modem. When pon says ATZ, it gets that old OK from the modem and the second OK (from ATZ this time) is interpreted as the answer to the ATD... command. As chat expects CONNECT and gets OK the script fails. IIRC my old modem said NO CARRIER on hangup, but I'm not sure. Maybe the poff only waits for this and ignores OK. A solution could be to change the chatscript in some way so that it eats up an OK before beginning its conversation with the modem. A short glimpse at the chat manpage didn't reveal to me how to do it. And as this problem is not cruical I currently don't have more time to spend on it. If you or someone else on the list knows a solution, please do let me know. Christoph
