Although your probably already aware, if you want better control of packages with no automatic dependency resolution, it's better to use dpkg instead of apt-get from my understanding. Also I think compiz is required by Unity hence the stupid "smart" replacements by apt-get which you probably...

That is in the .else row, if you didn't plug the -DPKG or PKG=1, what I actually did. Anyway, it still wont install python27 as a new package, if python2 were installed with dependencies, even with the --force flag :( I think about another way, maybe it's better to deploy a clear system as a...

...compiled against to produce the mtr package) and it would be compatible as long as the version number in it satisfies this condition. Debian's dpkg packaging system has known these tricks for a long time and that's why you can mix packages from different sources in Debian and all...

...The issue is, I cannot get it to import on my Ubuntu 13.10 desktop machine. I am using the following ZFS packages in Ubuntu: darkstar:~> sudo dpkg --get-selections | grep zfs libzfs1 install ubuntu-zfs install zfs-dkms install zfs-fuse deinstall zfsutils install Here is...

If you're familiar with for example Debian's packaging utilities dpkg, apt-get and aptitude, PKGNG is roughly equivalent to what dpkg offers and parts of what apt-get offers. There's still not anything like aptitude or its graphical equivalents but PKGNG is written in such way that developing...

...Instead, the tmpfs should be mounted at /run. You can get the details at the /run entry in the Debian Wiki. Second, I ran into a problem with dpkg and apt-get where I couldn't install or upgrade any packages because /var/lib/dpkg/status was missing 'Version' and 'Description' entries for...

...parts of the userland manually inside the jail. After I reinstanted the jail to use Lenny, I still removed rsyslog manually before running dpkg. No problems with this approach. So instead of step 9, run: rm /<jaildir>/var/cache/apt/archives/rsyslog_*...

Thanks for your suggestions. I actually do use the shell quite a lot, though I am no expert, even after years of experience. For instance, I never use a display manager, always use the CLI as default and then go to X with startx (which is aliased to startx -- -nolisten tcp). Well, you are right...

...You are going to know how to accomplish specific tasks with no understanding of what you are doing. Package management is a concept. Ports, apt/dpkg, yum/rpm are implementations of the concept of package management. So pick a *nix and learn the basics that are shared between all *nix...

...software installation on Debian; it uses the APT package manager to handle the setup. The main tool for installing / removing packages is dpkg. But in order to make it a little easier on the end user they provided a front end for it called apt-get. That can be used to easily retrieve and...

.../bin/bash To complete the configuration of the jail, from the shell started in the chroot environment, run: I have no name!@morsa:/# dpkg --force-depends -Ei /var/cache/apt/archives/*.deb We left the previous shell and unmount the previously mounted file systems in step 10. root@morsa:/root...

...doing the same thing? Such a scenario could lead up to quite some horror scenario's. Offtopic: Its the same reason why a package system (RPM or DPKG) gets locked the very moment you use it, even if you're not doing anything: start dselect or aptitude on Debian, look at the software overview...

..."GARTSize" "256" EndSection I think you should try the radeon(4x) driver for this one, or try vesa(4x) (which is the generic driver). The dpkg command in the header seems out of place. Using old saved xorg.conf files from other computers, different OS (Linux), or different versions of...

...libGL seems to be still broken and produces a conflict between the PKGNG packages. The correct solution would be a virtual package (like in dpkg) that provides a libGL library and the ports that need it wouldn't have to know in advance which one they are going to get at install time...

...That can be done by software in the ports, which is the point where Debian falls short because you can use the GNU userland there but the APT/DPKG has no idea what the FreeBSD ports are or how to install them. The ports collection currently contains more than 23 thousand entries (locate...

1. Not likely they ever will either. This is actually a good thing because it increases security. If you really can't live without it, I'm sure you could dig up some scripts to do it. 2. CUPS is mature on FreeBSD. 3. Dunno, but I'm sure there's a way. 4. Neither Skype nor Chromium...

Hi, I'm a Debian user but now I migrated to FreeBSD kernel port to test one real Unix kernel and lean it with GNU and Debian (APT/Dpkg) environment. But I'm having troubles like: 1- CD/DVD, pendrives, external HDs, Windows partitions don't mount automatically in boot (ntfs-3g package already...

...though a bootloader, control then eventually gets transferred to init and then your system starts. But here's the problem... root@debian:~# dpkg-query `which getty` util-linux: /sbin/getty root@debian:~# dpkg -p util-linux | grep Depends Depends: lsb-base (>=3.0-6), tzdata (>=2006c-2)...

...this is not the case because it has been written completely from scratch. Therefore PKGNG is not a fork of anything. PKGNG tools implement many of the functionalities of dpkg and apt in roughly the same way but that's only because they are so standard now that everyone expects them to be there.

...solved this problem though, if you need access to software repositories you'd normally use the yum command. The same story applies to Debian. dpkg is the used package manager here (for both Debian as well as derivative distributions) but it behaves nearly in the same manner as rpm does. If...
