Gul Dukat Posted November 14, 2006 Report Share Posted November 14, 2006 (edited) Hi, thought it best to start a brand new topic about something that puzzles me. As you probably saw in an earlier topic, I started about configuring Smart, I've now run into something strange trying to install new packages with Smart. Here's the thing. I've configured Smart with the following sources: - contrib - main - plf-free - plf-nonfree - updates After adding those sources, I ran an "smart update" and an "smart upgrade". The last one gave me this: smart upgrade Loading cache... Updating cache... ################################################################### [100%] Computing transaction... No interesting upgrades available. After this I tried to install "graveman" with smart and it gave me the following: smart install graveman Loading cache... Updating cache... ################################################################### [100%] Computing transaction... Installing packages (87): ash ldconfig libgsm1 libsancho-gui2 libxrender1 bash libalsa-data libgtk+-x11-2.0_0 libstdc++6 mkisofs cdrdao libalsa2 libgtk+2.0_0 libtermcap2 net-tools cdrecord libao2 libia_ora-gnome libtiff3 openssl chkconfig libatk1.0_0 libid3tag0 libvorbis0 pam common-licenses libcrack2 libjpeg62 libvorbisenc2 pango coreutils libcups2 liblcms1 libvorbisfile3 perl-base cracklib-dicts libdb2 liblzo2_2 libx11_6 pkgconfig dvd+rw-tools libflac7 libmad0 libxau6 rootcerts fontconfig libfontconfig1 libmng1 libxcursor1 rpm-helper glib2.0-common libfreetype6 libogg0 libxdmcp6 sancho-gui glibc libgcc1 libopencdk8 libxext6 setup gnome-icon-theme libgcrypt11 libopenssl0.9.8 libxfixes3 shadow-utils graveman libgdk_pixbuf2.0_0 libpam0 libxft2 sox grep libglade2.0_0 libpango1.0_0 libxi6 zlib1 gtk+2.0 libglib2.0_0 libpango1.0_0-modules libxinerama1 hicolor-icon-theme libgnutls13 libpcre0 libxml2 ia_ora-gnome libgpg-error0 libpng3 libxrandr2 40.9MB of package files are needed. 103.1MB will be used. Confirm changes? (Y/n): So many packages, just to install "graveman". So I started to wonder and installed "graveman" with urpmi. This is how it came out: urpmi graveman ftp://ftp.nluug.nl/pub/os/Linux/distr/Mandrakelinux/official/2007.0/i586/media/contrib/release/graveman-0.3.12-5mdv2007.0.i586.rpm installeren van graveman-0.3.12-5mdv2007.0.i586.rpm vanaf /var/cache/urpmi/rpms Voorbereiden... ########################################################################### ############### 1/1: graveman ########################################################################### ############### Where am I going wrong here? By the way, the same thing happened when I tried to install "Koverartist" with smart. It wanted to install 208 packages of a total of 123.8MB. Just for a program like "Koverartist". I would really appreciate it if someone could help me out here. Thanks in advance. Edited November 14, 2006 by Gul Dukat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dexter11 Posted November 14, 2006 Report Share Posted November 14, 2006 The first one means there are no new packages in the updates dir. Since all the others you gave to smart are frozen. The second one is confusing because it wants to install packages which suppose to be installed like bash, corutils or grep etc. It's like smart doesn't know what's installed and what's not installed. There is a channel called rpm-sys among the channel. This should represent the RPM databas. You didn't deleted or unchecked, it do you? When I tried to install graveman with smart it didn't want to install anything else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gul Dukat Posted November 14, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2006 You didn't deleted or unchecked, it do you? Yes, I've unchecked it. I will change it in the morning and try again. Thanks for your hel and time, so far Dexter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
