Edd Posted July 12, 2005 Report Share Posted July 12, 2005 (edited) I did all the easy-URPMI business, and it all downloaded fine, but when I ran "urpmi --auto-select --auto" It went and then got this error at the end: Installation failed: libXfixes.so.3 is needed by libgtk+2.0_0-devel-2.6.4-2mdk devel(libXfixes) is needed by libgtk+2.0_0-devel-2.6.4-2mdk rpm >= 4.2.3-7mdk is needed by perl-URPM-1.11-1mdk libXfixes.so.3 is needed by libgtk+-x11-2.0_0-2.6.4-2mdk rpm >= 4.2.3-9mdk is needed by rpmtools-5.0.20-1mdk libXfixes.so.3 is needed by gtk+2.0-2.6.4-2mdk 3 installation transactions failed: file /usr/X11R6/bin/xauth from install of xorg-x11-xauth-6.8.2-7.1.102mdk conflicts with file from package xorg-x11-6.7.0-4.3.101mdk xorg-x11-xauth is needed by xorg-x11-6.8.2-7.1.102mdk /usr/X11R6/bin/xauth is needed by (installed) mkxauth-1.7-8mdk libXfixes.so.3 is needed by libgtk+2.0_0-devel-2.6.4-2mdk devel(libXfixes) is needed by libgtk+2.0_0-devel-2.6.4-2mdk rpm >= 4.2.3-7mdk is needed by perl-URPM-1.11-1mdk libXfixes.so.3 is needed by libgtk+-x11-2.0_0-2.6.4-2mdk rpm >= 4.2.3-9mdk is needed by rpmtools-5.0.20-1mdk libXfixes.so.3 is needed by gtk+2.0-2.6.4-2mdk What would be the best way to combat this problem?

ianw1974 Posted July 12, 2005 Report Share Posted July 12, 2005 Have you got all the 2005 sources installed? You should have: main contrib jpackage updates plf-free plf-nonfree this should satisfy all the dependencies, and running urpmi --auto-select --auto will take care of the rest.

Edd Posted July 12, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2005 Well I thought I had it all downloaded. I tried to run it again, to make sure and I got this error: [root@localhost edd]# urpmi.addmedia jpackage ftp://ftp.clinet.fi/pub/mirrors/Mandrake-linux/official/2005/i586/media/jpackage with media_info/hdlist.cz Can't locate URPM.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.6/i386-linux /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.6 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.6/i386-linux /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.6 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.6/i386-linux /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.6 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.5 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.4 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.3 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.1 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl .) at /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.5/urpm.pm line 16.

ianw1974 Posted July 12, 2005 Report Share Posted July 12, 2005 Try using the Software Media Manager instead to remove the sources (System/Configuration/Packaging/Software Media Manager), and then add them again using easyurpmi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edd Posted July 12, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2005 The software media manager won't load, I click it, and the bar appears on the panel, it says it is loading, then it just dissappears and doesn't load. Is there anyway I can clear sources from the terminal or something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianw1974 Posted July 12, 2005 Report Share Posted July 12, 2005 You could try this, although I've never done it, so suggest copying the files first before you remove. In /var/lib/urpmi is where all the sources seem to exist. Suggest removing say, updates, to a different folder, and then attempt adding ONLY updates again using the easyurpmi. If it adds, then you can safely remove the others as well and add again. There will be a number of files that relate to each source. You'll see what I mean when you take a look in there!

Edd Posted July 12, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2005 It still gave me the same error. I moved hdlist.updates.cz and synthesis.hdlist.updates.cz out of the folder, before retrying. What else can I try? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianw1974 Posted July 12, 2005 Report Share Posted July 12, 2005 It still gave me the same error. I moved hdlist.updates.cz and synthesis.hdlist.updates.cz out of the folder, before retrying. What else can I try? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> There's also list.updates and names.updates - assume you removed these as well? When you tried to add updates afterwards, what error did you get? What might actually be worth doing, is move everything out of this directory, so that you have copies of it, and then try running Software Media Manager afterwards (or urpmi.removemedia -a to make sure it's clear if you can't get in with Software Media Manager). The list should be blank if everything is removed, and then try adding the sources again. You can always copy the files back if it doesn't work. I never experienced this problem when I did my upgrade, so not sure what's happening. Have you tried getting into Install Software or Remove Software as well? Does it behave the same has Software Media Manager? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edd Posted July 12, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2005 Ok I moved it all out and tried again. The software thing will not load - nor will the control panel, software installation, uninstallation etc.If I run urpmi.removemedia -a I get the error: [root@localhost edd]# urpmi.removemedia -a Can't locate URPM.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.6/i386-linux /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.6 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.6/i386-linux /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.6 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.6/i386-linux /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.6 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.5 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.4 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.3 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.1 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl .) at /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.5/urpm.pm line 16.

Edd Posted July 12, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2005 If I downloaded the 2005 DVD ISO and installed that, do you think that would work? I mean I wouldn't lose any files or anything? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianw1974 Posted July 12, 2005 Report Share Posted July 12, 2005 Upgrading over the top, nah you shouldn't lose any files. It seems there's a problem with perl, I think I saw a post on this recently, so you might be able to get some info on that. Although I remember vaguely, that maybe they did a complete reinstall when perl got trashed somehow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edd Posted July 12, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2005 Thanks for the link, I have asked a Q in there on how to sort my problem :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianw1974 Posted July 13, 2005 Report Share Posted July 13, 2005 It's a strange error, but it's not related to the upgrade. URPMI has just got screwed somehow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edd Posted July 13, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2005 Okkk I have downloaded and installed version 2005 from the DVD. My laptop will boot into Linux, but once the KDE splash screen disappears, the system freezes up after a few seconds and I have to turn my laptop off by holding the power button. You said I needed to update my Kernel, and I reckon that is why. But how can I update my Kernel if it keeps freezing? Thanks :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
