PS:

If you would use an Ubuntu flavour, you could expect help by the Ubuntu
users mailing list,
https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users.

"Users of Ubuntu and officially supported derivatives (Kubuntu,
Edubuntu, Xubuntu, Lubuntu) can get support here. Users of derivatives
(such as Backtrack and Linux Mint) are not officially supported." -
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuUsersListFAQ#FAQ1

The list of Ubuntu flavours is outdated, anyway, Mint still isn't an
Ubuntu flavour, https://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu-flavours ,
https://www.ubuntu.com/about/about-ubuntu/flavours . Consider to
migrate to an Ubuntu flavour or ask for help by Mint support.

No, because you are ignoring the messages you get by synaptic, as well
as sending tons of requests, instead of just one smart request and apart
from this you are sending it to a mailing list of the wrong distro.
It's all your fault.

Take a look at http://www.catb.org/esr/faqs/smart-questions.html .

This could happen if you are e.g. using official Ubuntu repositories
with a third party repository, maybe a Mint repository. However, in your
case it might be an user error, related to held packages, at least the
messages complain about a possible hold package.

Mint isn't an Ubuntu flavour, IOW you sent your request to a mailing
list of another distro.

LibreOffice bug - cannot run office because of 'missing file' in 5.1.4.2 28 June, 2017

LibreOffice bug - cannot run office because of 'missing file' in 
5.1.4.228 June, 2017



You are getting this bug report, because you are listed as the 
'maintainer' for this package. See: 'Maintainer of LibreOffice package.png'



If you are not at fault, then send the information to libreoffice.


I would appreciate not getting any excuses for why your team is not 
responsible for this package, because the attached photo says you are! I 
doubt that hardware or OS has anything to do with this bug,



Bug Report:

I created a new linuxmint installation. I reinstalled libreOffice (for 
3rd time) after the removal problems listed in my prior emails. I tried 
clicking on a calc file I needed, and which I have opened dozens of 
times. Libreoffice barfed the same error message it had already 
complanied about. See: LibreOffice broken package - cannot load calc.png


I then checked to see if the file was 'missing'. No, it is exactly where 
LO thinks it shoud be!! See: LibreOffice file is where it should be! 
See: LibreOffice file is where it should be.png




REALLY?



This sounds like a programming or compiler or packaging bug! Whatever it 
is, needs to be fixed, so I can do my work of entry billable hours.




I have run linuxmint on this hardware for quite a while. Now your 
package cannot not include a needed library?


How is this possible? That section has worked for years!


Now what do I do, besides cry?


Frustrated, and falling behind in my work, because of your bug.

Re: Missing File

2012-04-23 Thread Rigved Rakshit
 This morning I tried to upgrade my Ubuntu 11.10 to the Ubuntu 12.04
 beta2-desktop-amd64, which did not work.

 I went into the Terminal and typed in this Line.
         ''sudo do-­release-­upgrade ­d;''


sudo do-release-upgrade -d

This command will only work after Ubuntu 12.04 has been released,
which means after 26th April, 2012.

 I tried this several times, both using and not using the - between words
 like it is Printed in the PDF I downloaded from the Ubuntu Web Site last
 evening.  I also tried it with and with out the ;  at the end of the Line.

 The only result I got was a Line that said no upgrades found''.  I know the
 File has been released, because I downloaded a copy of it last evening
 also.  I do prefer to use the Automatic Upgrade, because it has worked so
 well on Ubuntu before, and saves so much time re-installing and configuring
 Software.

If you want to upgrade now, before the official release, then you can
do the following:

sudo apt-get update
gksudo update-manager -d

The update-manager window will open up. It will show the 12.04 is
available. Click the upgrade button to upgrade to the 12.04 beta
version.

Please direct such Ubuntu support questions to the ubuntu-users mailing list.

Best Regards,
Rigved Rakshit

Missing File

2012-04-20 Thread Ray McCrum

  
  

  This should be an easy fix.
  
  This morning I tried to upgrade my Ubuntu 11.10 to the
  Ubuntu 12.04 beta2-desktop-amd64, which did not work.
  
  I went into the Terminal and typed in this Line.
''sudo do-release-upgrade d;''
  
  I tried this several times, both using and not using the
  "-" between words like it is Printed in the PDF I
  downloaded from the Ubuntu Web Site last evening. I also
  tried it with and with out the "; " at the end of the
  Line.

  downloaded a copy of it last evening also. I do prefer to

  on Ubuntu before, and saves so much time re-installing and
  configuring Software.
  
  I am currently using Ubuntu 10.04 L.T.S as my Main
  Software, but I have the 11.10 version installed also, the
  last two weeks. 
  
  The 11.10 appears to be working great, but I always test
  New OS Systems about a Month before I really switch to
  them on a permanent basis.
  
  One comment I would like to make is about the 'new'
  Desktop Programs, both Gnome3, and Unity. I do not really
  like either of them, because they remove the 'Panels' that
  an individual can add Icons to for Quick Starting Software
  Programs. I am using the Unity on my Ubuntu 11.10 because
  is it the 'lesser of the two evils'. I normally keep 18
  separate Icons, plus the Drop Down Menu Box, and the
  standard Calender, Network Icon Volume Control, and Shut
  Down Menu in the top Panel on Ubuntu 10.04. That can't be
  done in the Unity Interface. The ''Dashboard'' is a time
  waster in finding the Programs I want to run.
  
  Other then the Menu system, the Ubuntu 11.10 appears to be
  a great operating System. This 10.04 I have been running
  has been the best I have ever owned in 28 Years I have
  been using Computers.

Hi Ray

It seems your problem is mising a dash: the command requires '-d' to
attempt an upgrade to a development release, *not* 'd'.

Please try with

sudo do-release-upgrade -d

and we will go from there.

Cheers,

..C..
