Thanks Axel, The lock files weren't present, but the entry in /etc/rpm/macros did the trick.

That's great, but is there a way to fix a buggered system AFTER you're hosed? Rpm & apt don't work now and I don't have yum or smart installed. I suppose I could compile rpm or apt from sources, but is there an easier way?

Re: [mythtv-users] Re: apt-get on FC3 still broken?
I'm coming in late to this thread, but this weekend I installed FC3 (several times in fact) without trouble. I let up2date upgrade the distribtion and just used apt-get to install the mythtv-suite. The backend I left at 2.6.9 since the upgrade to 2.6.12 didn't seem to include the source I needed to compile ivtv. The frontend I let up2date upgrade to 2.6.12 and it's running smoothly. - Todd Quoting Evil Barney <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > I tried this with a fresh load of FC3.

Add libselinux to the above command line. Wow, apt seems to be quite confused by the depth of package dependencies. I still wonder why apt-get dist-upgrade does not work. Time to find a smart or yum solution. Perhaps adding [atrpms] name=Fedora Core 3 - i386 - ATrpms baseurl=http://dl.atrpms.net/fc3-i386/atrpms/stable to /etc/yum.conf and having a "yum install apt" is faster ... -- Axel.Thimm at ATrpms.net pgpTh7lsfeKEa.pgp Description: PGP signature ___ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users

I tried this with a fresh load of FC3. First thing I did was install apt-get (rpm -Uvh http://atrpms.net/dist/fc3/atrpms-kickstart/atrpms-kickstart-27-1.rhfc3.at.i386.rpm) then, I did apt-get update then I did: apt-get install rpm librpm4.4 apt atrpms-package-config fedora-release beecrypt At that point I get this error: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# apt-get install rpm librpm4.4 apt atrpms-package-config fedora-release beecrypt Reading Package Lists... Done Building Dependency Tree... Done Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. The following information may help to resolve the situation: The following packages have unmet dependencies: rpm: Depends: libselinux (>= 1.23.2) but 1.19.1-8 is to be installed E: Broken packages I stop here and don't attempt the distro upgrade. any thoughts? ___ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users

Axel, I was able to get it working with: apt-get install rpm librpm4.4 apt atrpms-package-config fedora-release beecrypt .. and then running the apt-get dist-upgrade normally. - Michael > From: Axel Thimm <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Reply-To: > Date: Fri, 22 Jul 2005 10:37:28 +0200 > To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, Discussion about mythtv > Cc: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: [mythtv-users] Re: apt-get on FC3 still broken? > > On Fri, Jul 22, 2005 at 12:14:41AM -0400, Jerry Rubinow wrote: >> In step 5 of Jarod's guide, in between the apt-get update and apt-get >> dist-upgrade, I tried this: >> >> apt-get install apt atrpms-package-config fedora-release beecrypt >> >> This seemed to complete ok, so then I did an apt-get dist-upgrade, > > OK. :) > > Alternatively you could try > > apt-get install fedora-release atrpms-package-config beecrypt apt smart > > and use smart instead of apt.
