Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] How to downgrade from 7.6.0 on ubuntu with apt?

2011-08-01 Thread andyjj

I choose ubuntu for its long support and it's still within its support
cycle (and hey, squeezeboxserver will install on Windows 2000).  I plan
on getting new hardware next year - I'll update to the latest OS then.

As to why I updated squeezeboxserver, well it's a fair point.  Unless
there's a compelling reason I'll be sticking with this version until I
update the OS.

With all due respect, why are you updating squeezeserver, but not your
operating system?

If you want the benefits of squeezeserver improvements then eventually
you will run out of compatibility/capability with 8.04.

 Thanks,

My personal advice would be to upgrade your server to 10.04 LTS as I
believe all the dependencies will be Ok and you will get mysql sqlite
upgrades.

The dependencies are fine for Ubuntu 8.04 as SBS 7.6.0 installed
without problem (but the scanning was borked, which seems to be a
common problem).  Some dependencies were removed - probably when I
purged squeezeboxserver - and dpkg doesn't install dependencies.

In case it helps somebody I fixed it by looking in /var/log/dpkg.log
and finding the packages that had been removed and reinstalling them:

SUDO APT-GET INSTALL LIBC6-DEV LIBMYSQLCLIENT15-DEV LINUX-LIBC-DEV
ZLIB1G-DEV

then downloading and installing the .deb (version found in dpkg.log
again):

*sudo dpkg -i squeezeboxserver_7.5.3_all.deb*
