[01:28] <asterismo> hi people
[01:28] <asterismo> have a problem with the grep-status
[01:28] <asterismo> i think
[01:29] <yofel> asterismo: can you rephrase that? (what's grep-status?)
[01:30] <asterismo> i installed something and now every time i write in terminal sudo apt-get remove gwib(tab) the line changes to sudo apt-get remove gwibbgrep-status: /var/lib/dpkg/status:32500: expected a colon
[01:30] <asterismo> .
[01:30] <asterismo> the tab completion in terminal is not working
[01:30] <yofel> no, your  /var/lib/dpkg/status isn't right, check what's wrong with line 32500
[01:31] <asterismo> mmm
[01:32] <asterismo> i got inspired by this bug report https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dctrl-tools/+bug/583476
[01:32] <ubot2> Launchpad bug 583476 in dctrl-tools (Ubuntu) "Installing xmind breaks grep-status (affects: 4) (heat: 21)" [Undecided,Invalid]
[01:32] <asterismo> but i don't think i installed such thing xmind
[01:33] <asterismo> because the terminal issue is the same, so i have to check something in that line?
[01:35] <yofel> yes
[01:36] <asterismo> that lines says "Status: install ok installed"
[01:36] <asterismo> i got no clue
[01:36] <yofel> asterismo: can you pastebin the relevant section?
[01:36] <asterismo> ok
[01:38] <asterismo> http://paste.ubuntu.com/542523/
[01:40] <yofel> doesn't make sense, since that's correct..
[01:42] <asterismo> this is trying to remove firefox, this is writing firef(tab)
[01:42] <asterismo> sudo apt-get remove firgrep-status: /var/lib/dpkg/status:32500: expected a colon
[01:42] <asterismo> .efox-branding
[01:42] <asterismo> fir(tab) sorry
[01:43] <yofel> yeah, apt parses the status file to get the possible completion options, while it does that it prints that error which breaks the completion
[01:44] <asterismo> any ideas? reset thing or something like that?
[01:45] <asterismo> reinstall "tab completion" sort of thing?
[01:45] <yofel> are you sure that's the right line you found? something like 'cat -n /var/lib/dpkg/status | grep ^\ 32500' should make sure of that
[01:46] <asterismo> what command?
[01:46] <asterismo> oh yes
[01:46] <yofel> asterismo: that won't help at all, the completion works right, since it *does* complete the efox-branding
[01:47] <asterismo> 'cat -n /var/lib/dpkg/status | grep ^\ 32500'
[01:47] <asterismo> bash: cat -n /var/lib/dpkg/status | grep ^\ 32500: No such file or directory
[01:47] <yofel> asterismo: without the quotes
[01:47] <asterismo> my god
[01:47] <yofel> sry
[01:47] <asterismo> lol
[01:47] <asterismo>  32500	Status: install ok installed
[01:48] <yofel> good, I'm officially out of ideas :(
[01:48] <yofel> (well, you could restore status-old, but I'm not sure if that won't break something else)
[01:49] <asterismo> you know, i just was trying to install some games for my 5-year old kid and installed some physics games within some ubuntu games repository and also tried to indstall PCSX2 emulator for PS2 and i think since then, i have this problem
[01:49] <asterismo> and i followed this thread, may be was bad idea
[01:49] <asterismo> http://forums.pcsx2.net/Thread-Howto-PCSX2-on-AMD64-Ubuntu
[01:49] <yofel> asterismo: well, shot in the blue: remove libaiksaurus-1.2-data so it removes the failing section
[01:50] <yofel> I mean, purge it
[01:50] <asterismo> like sudo apt-get --purge libwhatever
[01:50] <yofel> sudo apt-get purge
[01:51] <asterismo> or remove
[01:51] <asterismo> remove --purge
[01:51] <asterismo> ahh
[01:51] <asterismo> ok
[01:53] <asterismo> nope
[01:53] <asterismo> sudo apt-get remove gwibgrep-status: /var/lib/dpkg/status:32430: expected a colon
[01:53] <asterismo> .
[01:54] <yofel> . . .
[01:54] <zeroseven0183> asterismo, I'm reading your problem above and if I understand it, you're having problems completing commands in the Terminal when you press tab. Am I correct? Or was it solved already?
[01:55] <asterismo> still
[01:55] <yofel> zeroseven0183: the completion works, but dpkg prints error while calculation the completion options :/
[01:55] <yofel> *calculating
[01:56] <asterismo> i dont know what to do
[01:56] <yofel> asterismo: just curious, what line does it now complain about
[01:57] <asterismo> Original-Maintainer: Debian OpenOffice Team <debian-openoffice@lists.debian.org>
[01:57] <asterismo> paste-bining
[01:58] <yofel> that makes as much sense as the first one -.-

[02:00] <asterismo> line 8 in pastebin
[02:00] <zeroseven0183> asterismo, try reinstalling bash-completion from Synaptics
[02:02] <asterismo> and those libs? "libaiksaurus-1.2-data" what is that for?
[02:03] <asterismo> done bash-completion
[02:03] <yofel> "an English-language thesaurus (data)"
[02:03] <asterismo> do i have to reboot or something?
[02:03] <yofel> asterismo: close your terminal and open a new one
[02:05] <asterismo> sudo santiago@hyperion:~$ sudo apt-get remove gwibgrep-status: /var/lib/dpkg/status:32430: expected a colon
[02:05] <asterismo> .
[02:05] <asterismo> the same thing
[02:05]  * yofel goes looking ath the completion function
[02:06] <yofel> asterismo: what does this command print? grep-status -P -e "^gwib" -a -FStatus 'install ok installed' -n -s Package
[02:06] <asterismo> grep-status: /var/lib/dpkg/status:32430: expected a colon
[02:12] <yofel> geh, forget the line number, I just managed to reproduce that error by adding a space at a completely different place than the error told me :S
[02:13] <yofel> (added space in line 19106 and got error about line 19960, very helpful)
[02:15] <yofel> asterismo: still there?
[02:15] <asterismo> yes
[02:15] <asterismo> bathroom
[02:16] <yofel> good, let's try something (remove trailing spaces if that's a problem somewhere):
[02:16] <yofel> sudo mv /var/lib/dpkg/status /var/lib/dpkg/status.bak
[02:16] <asterismo> done
[02:17] <yofel> sudo sed -e 's/^\s$//' /var/lib/dpkg/status.bak > /var/lib/dpkg/status
[02:17] <yofel> then try the grep-status command from above again
[02:17] <asterismo> bash: /var/lib/dpkg/status: Permission denied
[02:17] <yofel> ouch, sec
[02:18] <yofel> sudo sh -c "sed -e 's/^\s$//' /var/lib/dpkg/status.bak > /var/lib/dpkg/status"
[02:18] <asterismo> done
[02:19] <yofel> different error, same or working?
[02:19] <asterismo> now i have to do what? this command? grep-status -P -e "^gwib" -a -FStatus 'install ok installed' -n -s Package
[02:19] <asterismo> ??
[02:19] <yofel> yes
[02:19] <asterismo> ok
[02:19] <asterismo> grep-status: /var/lib/dpkg/status:32430: expected a colon
[02:20] <asterismo> stupid machine
[02:20] <asterismo> lol
[02:20] <yofel> k, delete the status file and move the status.bak back
[02:21] <asterismo> done
[02:21] <yofel> probably same issue as in the bug you mentioned then, now we just need to find *which* package has the broken description (from >1000 probably) :/
[02:22] <asterismo> i think maybe is one of the games i tried to install
[02:22] <asterismo> from ubuntu games
[02:22] <yofel> asterismo: can you look in at the end of your /var/log/apt/history.log which packages you recently installed
[02:22] <yofel> you're probably right
[02:23] <asterismo> let me try to delete those games
[02:25] <asterismo> done!!!
[02:25] <asterismo> it works!!!!
[02:26] <asterismo> i removed globulation, omnitux and memonix
[02:26] <asterismo> those are games for kids
[02:26] <yofel> *sigh*, well, you learned something about bash completion and dpkg internals at least..
[02:26] <asterismo> obviously one of them break the thing
[02:27] <asterismo> oh man, sorry for that long time helping me, i was suspisious about the games but the issue seems to be completely different, it was that simple i'm sorry i took you so long
[02:28] <yofel> np, I should have blamed the games too first :/
[02:28] <asterismo> hahah
[02:28] <asterismo> thanks a lot man
[02:28] <asterismo> really apreciate this
[02:28] <asterismo> you guys are the best
[02:28] <asterismo> !thanks
[02:28] <ubot2> You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)

[04:08] <shahan> Hello all
[04:08] <shahan> I installed KDE desktop on my Maverick Meerkat GNOME
[04:09] <shahan> and yesterday I have removed it through sudo apt-get purge kubuntu-desktop
[04:09] <shahan> but a lot of KDE pro-grammes are still installed on my PC
[04:10] <aveilleux> shahan, That's because kubuntu-desktop has those as dependencies. Try running sudo apt-get autoremove
[04:10] <shahan> aveilleux, ok
[04:11] <aveilleux> shahan, The way metapackages like kubuntu-desktop work, is that they're empty packages with a bunch of dependencies. Removing a program with dependencies doesn't remove the dependencies. (Unless you use aptitude instead of apt-get)
[04:12] <shahan> hmm
[04:12] <shahan> so what can I do now?
[04:12] <shahan> aveilleux, http://paste.ubuntu.com/542558/
[04:13] <aveilleux> shahan, Hm, strange.
[04:14] <shahan> aveilleux, do u have any more idea?

[04:52] <shahan> Mohan_chml, ya... but a lot of KDE programmes is still installed
[04:52] <shahan> Mohan_chml, I wanna remove these
[04:53] <Mohan_chml> shahan, the code you used is to remove the KDE and bring back the GNOME. and are the KDE programs installed by you? or by default?
[04:53] <shahan> by default
[04:54] <Mohan_chml> I ll brb. mom shouts :|
[04:54] <shahan> Mohan_chml, ok
[04:55] <Mohan_chml> what I can say is, install KDE again and remove it like what people said here ;)
[04:55] <shahan> hmm
[04:55] <shahan> sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[04:55] <shahan> like this?
[04:56] <shahan> Mohan_chml, sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[04:56] <shahan> Mohan_chml, like this

[20:43] <Guest99900> hello
[20:47] <Guest99900> I'm trying to put ubuntu 10.10 on my other pc and it keeps saying "gave up waiting for root device". I've looked through a few forums and tried info I've found therin but have had no luck fixing my problem. any ideas?
[20:48] <bioterror> after installation or when bootin CD?
[20:49] <Guest99900> after installation
[20:49] <bioterror> is your hard drive okay?
[20:49] <bioterror> sounds kinda weird
[20:49] <Guest99900> yeah I've already run tests on all the hardware
[20:50] <Guest99900> the partitioner set the partitions to msdos1 and 5 instead of sda1 and 5 like this pc... would that be a problem?
[20:52] <bioterror> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IntrepidReleaseNotes#Boot%20failures%20on%20systems%20with%20Intel%20D945%20motherboards
[20:52] <bioterror> found something like that
[20:54] <Guest99900> I'll try it, I havn't noticed keyboard input working when it goes to the busybox though
[20:55] <Guest99900> yep, no keystrokes are working at all
[20:56] <bioterror> :o
[20:58] <bioterror> what we could then find out
[20:58] <bioterror> you could edit boot line in grub and add that 90 seconds to it
[21:00] <Guest99900> I was just getting ready to ask if I could do that heh
[21:01] <Guest99900> is that for the boot parameters or the actual command line?
[21:01] <bioterror> boot parameters
[21:02] <bioterror> rootdelay=90 add that to the end
[21:03] <Guest99900> let's see if that did it
[21:03] <Guest99900> nope same problem
[21:04] <bioterror> :G
[21:04] <bioterror> what kind of computer are you using?
[21:05] <Guest99900> gateway dx4720-03, pentium dual core
[21:05] <Guest99900> stock except for the wireless card
[21:08] <bioterror> Guest99900, boot to bios, change from AHCI to IDE
[21:08] <Guest99900> okie dokie
[21:08] <bioterror> Main -> Sata Mode
[21:08] <bioterror> or something like that
[21:13] <bioterror> seems to work, since I hear nothing :D
[21:13] <Guest99900> Either I'm blind or my bios dosn't have that option :/ this pc is more trouble than it's worth heh
[21:13] <bioterror> you should see something with AHCI
[21:13] <bioterror> or SATA
[21:14] <bioterror> I really dont bealive that will be the solution, but it's worth of trying
[21:15] <Guest99900> I've seen what you're talking about before, but it's honestly not on here
[21:23] <Guest99900> guess I'll keep looking around
[21:24] <bioterror> well, you've a challenge
[21:24] <bioterror> ;)
[21:25] <Guest99900> heh I've been trying to figure it out for a solid 8 hours now :/ maybe I just need to take a break and work on this other pc :D
[21:26] <Guest99900> thanks for the help though :D
