Re: [Bug 987502] Re: libxml2-dev: /usr/bin/xml2-config isn't identical across all arch
Hi darko, Thanks for your help again! I do believe I don't need this anyway as you say. Yep I'm running low on HDD space atm and have used the repair broken packages in boot mode. I will have more space when I defrag the drive which has windows on it so I can safely erase Windows and then use Gparted or similar to rearrange things. Last time I went to do this, Windows played up and I got some message saying it was a non registered version?? Was never like that before so will have to look into that. I haven't used windows since my first run of the previous version of Ubuntu. I guess the best is to go offline to start windows,then see if I can defrag maybe even in safe-mode? Windows is so foreign to me now LOL yet I knew it inside out once. Any simple command to remove the offending library? I've searched and cannot understand the lingo, a bit deep for me. I have sudo'd all commands and the 'apt-get-update' many times with reboot without success. Thanks again mate for the support.

[Bug 987502] Re: libxml2-dev: /usr/bin/xml2-config isn't identical across all arch
Hi Andrew. I do not think your issue is related to this bug at all. As a user you probably have no need for a libxml2-dev package, only libxml2. I posted notes in reference to this bug due to a deliberate request by the user (developer) for libxml2-dev:i386 on a 64-bit Ubuntu, which is not something users are likely to try to install. Like said before, both versions of the library are needed if one needs multiple architecture building option on a 64-bit Ubuntu. Regarding your problem it is hard to say from the posted information, but more of an apt (Update Manager) issue than libxml2 package issue. I have seen your message sometimes: - (maybe) command was not called with 'sudo' - running out of space on HDD partition - broken/damaged package Try to call 'sudo apt-get update' and restart the Update Manager (or the system). Then retry to upgrade again using the Update Manager. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/987502 Title: libxml2-dev: /usr/bin/xml2-config isn't identical across all arch To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libxml2/+bug/987502/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi Darko, Thank you very much for writing this up for me mate! I'm not sure I even need this as I'm just an average Net user? My system is 32 bit but I think I installed this maybe when thinking of doing a web site??? I tried what you wrote but keep getting errors like it doesn't exist, though I'm prompted everyday to update and returns a failure. Here's the output after the first command: Reading package lists...

Please see the screenshots from the Update Center too. I'm really grateful for your help with this mate, I tried to follow the links to rectify them all but don't have a clue what to do with the files once downloaded. Cheers mate!

[Bug 987502] Re: libxml2-dev: /usr/bin/xml2-config isn't identical across all arch
Hi Andrew. Generally, both versions of the library are needed if one needs multi architecture building option (e.g. x86_64 native build and i386 backsupport (cross)build for 32-bit installations). I am building my i386 and x86_64 application on Ubuntu 12.04.3 LTS using -m32 and -m64 gcc options. But running only 64-bit version of the application locally for the matter. To accomplish this I have done: Firstly installed libxml2-dev (x86_64) sudo apt-get install libxml2-dev Secondly, move problematic xml2-config sudo mv /usr/bin/xml2-config /usr/bin/xml2-config.x86_64 Then install libxml2-dev:i386 sudo apt-get install libxml2-dev:i386 Rename xml2-config for i386 sudo mv /usr/bin/xml2-config /usr/bin/xml2-config.i386 Restore x86_64 xml2-config sudo cp /usr/bin/xml2-config.x86_64 /usr/bin/xml2-config Finally, had to call ldconfig to refresh the library paths and gcc builds my application with -m32 and excplicit -m64 (although not needed). ldconfig reports: $ ldconfig -p | grep xml2 libxml2.so.2 (libc6,x86-64) => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libxml2.so.2 libxml2.so.2 (libc6) => /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libxml2.so.2 libxml2.so (libc6,x86-64) => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libxml2.so -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/987502 Title: libxml2-dev: /usr/bin/xml2-config isn't identical across all arch To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libxml2/+bug/987502/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

So it would be interesting to know how the users who were seeing this bug ran into the problem. It seems unlikely to be due to a deliberate request by the user for libxml2-dev:i386, which is not something users are likely to try to install. I think the libxml2 coinstallability bug, despite definitely being a bug, is a lower priority one; and I'm more interested to understand what's happening, in terms of the package manager, that's putting people in this situation.

[Bug 987502] Re: libxml2-dev: /usr/bin/xml2-config isn't identical across all arch
Sorry, but what's the justification for this being an SRU? Yes, the libxml2-dev package is wrongly marked as co-installable, but I don't see how the impact of this warrants an SRU - especially given this: > [Regression Potential] xml2-config reports the libdir is /usr/lib, while the > actual ones are /usr/lib/. This might break applications whose > build system can't find libraries correctly in the previous path but relies > on xml2-config's output. I recommend to use pkg-config instead of this > script. That's not an ignorable regression potential; there's a huge number of packages in Ubuntu that build-depend on libxml2-dev, and we don't know which of any of them, or what third-party software, is affected by this change. Given that this is only a -dev package that's affected, not a runtime package, I don't think it makes sense to SRU this - and I certainly don't think it warrants priority: high. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/987502 Title: libxml2-dev: /usr/bin/xml2-config isn't identical across all arch To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libxml2/+bug/987502/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 987502] Re: libxml2-dev: /usr/bin/xml2-config isn't identical across all arch
As I mentioned in private email to Aron, I don't think we can sync yet since there are still some consumers of the .la file (bug #1017486 — help welcomed in fixing the two remaining candidates). A minimal merge which just keeps the .la file does seem possible though; here's the diff for sponsorship. The control part of the diff is something Debian implemented to build a udeb for Ubuntu. It's not a real Ubuntu change. ** Patch added: "libxml-2.8.0+dfsg1-4.debdiff" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libxml2/+bug/987502/+attachment/3203794/+files/libxml-2.8.0%2Bdfsg1-4.debdiff -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/987502 Title: libxml2-dev: /usr/bin/xml2-config isn't identical across all arch To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libxml2/+bug/987502/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 987502] Re: libxml2-dev: /usr/bin/xml2-config isn't identical across all arch
I have ended up to decide remove the "M-A: same" status from libxslt-dev (already present in Debian) and libxml2-dev (still not uploaded). I think it's current solution by patching those scripts is not reliable enough. Assuming all the architectures will produce identical xml2-config files by this way is a broken idea because from time to time there are some architectures producing scripts that break the whole thing. Steve, can you have a look at them and propose a new approach if possible? I know when libxml2-dev is co-installable then cross-compile will be easier as people aren't forced to remove native ones. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/987502 Title: libxml2-dev: /usr/bin/xml2-config isn't identical across all arch To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libxml2/+bug/987502/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
