RE: apt-get install

2002-08-16 Thread Carter, Shaun G

where did you get the packages.  Last time I installed apt-rpm from
freshrpms.net, it went off without a hitch.  A quick search on these files
at rpmfind.net gives the package 

The RPM package management system.RedHat-7.3 for i386
rpm-4.0.4-7x.18.i386.rpm

Go grab that one.

Subject: apt-get install


I have been trying to install apt-get (RH7.2) using the following rpms.
This is a new install with no updates from RH.

*
apt-0.3.19cnc55-fr8.i386.rpm
apt-devel-0.3.19cnc55-fr8.i386.rpm  
**

These are the error messages that I am getting...


[root@localhost root]# rpm -Uvh apt-0.3*.rpm
error: failed dependencies:
librpm-4.0.4.so   is needed by apt-0.3.19cnc55-fr8
librpmdb-4.0.4.so   is needed by apt-0.3.19cnc55-fr8
librpmio-4.0.4.so   is needed by apt-0.3.19cnc55-fr8

Any insight?


Thanks.
Roger

Sounds like you need to upgrade rpm

What version of rpm are you running?

rpm -qi rpm

rpm -q --provides

seems like you eill need popt and gnorpm updates too IIRC.  There are

I have never used the up2date service but it seems like a good thing for
a single machine. I keep a directory on the lan with all the updates dn

Hmm a certain amount of irony involved in suggesting using up2date for a

it will give you something to test your aptget install on, assumming you
can update the aptget service from itself:)

You grabbed the wrong one.  Go to http://apt.freshrpms.net/
The third link is to apt for non-updated Red Hat Linux 7.2,rpm 4.0.3
That's you.

This isn't always guaranteed to work.  If package A splits into A and B,
and A now has a dependency on B that it didn't before, rpm -F will not
catch it.  up2date will.

Before you say this is very theoretical, let me point out that I've seen
this happen *many* times with Mandrake's betas as applications were
split between the app and its related libraries.  Can't say I've seen it
happen often with Red Hat.

Do you have an good suggestions on how I could yank all those updates
down a some odd ball hours?

***
wget -r ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/updates/7.2/

I am assuming some type of script running in cron?

I am amazed at what happens when a person reads the man pages.
this command works like a charm.

wget -r --level=1
ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/updates/7.2/en/os/i386/

one question -- what about md5sum?

You haven't done the RPM update that's part of RH 7.2.  You're also 
installing the wrong version of apt-get.  The -fr8 release is for RH7.3.

Go back to apt.freshrpms.net and get the right version, and install the
updated rpm package and you'll be an apt-get update  apt-get upgrade
away from being up to date.

Not often, but it does.  They split glibc into glibc and glibc-common in
the middle of one release.
