kodez | afternoon all, when is the next ubuntu-za meeting? | 11:43 |
kodez | also where do I get the last meeting minutes, i had forgotten the website? | 11:44 |
drubin | kodez: next meeting will be some time later this month not sure exact date. | 11:44 |
drubin | website it https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ZATeam | 11:45 |
kodez | thanks drubin, i will try to keep up with the latest developments | 11:50 |
kodez | are there any ubuntu hour coming in pretoria? | 12:09 |
kodez | when is ubuntu hour coming to pretoria? | 14:40 |
superfly | kodez: they are announced on the mailing list | 14:41 |
superfly | either that, or just do it yourself | 14:41 |
superfly | don't wait for someone else | 14:41 |
drubin | kodez: there was one while maiatoday was there.. but just email the list and tell people I am going to be at XX on YY date at ZZ time :) | 14:42 |
tumbleweed | superfly, drubin: ubuntu-za site needs a poke, it's horribly out of date | 14:42 |
tumbleweed | I think it may also be responsible for the OOMs we are seeing on soda | 14:42 |
kodez | i had not participated before and had been seeing the stellenbosch guys are the ones consistant in organising it | 14:42 |
superfly | a news story or two | 14:43 |
* drubin can't do it today | 14:43 | |
superfly | tumbleweed: looks like the cron job is having issues | 14:45 |
tumbleweed | superfly: yeah | 14:46 |
tumbleweed | so I'm assuming it's the planet bit that's at fault | 14:46 |
superfly | probably | 14:48 |
tumbleweed | I can upgrade the box to squeeze which would mean we can use a package-managed drupal, but that's going to take some negotiation with frogfoot (we'll need a newer kernel for squeeze's udev) | 14:49 |
superfly | it's fine, I prefer non-packaged Drupal | 14:51 |
superfly | tumbleweed: I'll upgrade the modules, and perhaps Drupal itself if I have enough time, later this evening, once the munchkin is in bed | 14:52 |
tumbleweed | superfly: awesome :) | 14:53 |
drubin | sorry guys... | 14:57 |
kodez | drubin, do you mean we must wait for maiatoday to have another one? | 15:06 |
drubin | kodez: No deffinatly don't do that, maia is it cape town | 15:07 |
drubin | kodez: Just start your own one | 15:07 |
kodez | drubin, what exactly is happening in ubuntu hour? | 15:08 |
kodez | i'm out of here, till we meet next time | 15:31 |

superfly | what problems? | 18:56 |
Kilos | when i try install something i get an error message | 18:56 |
Kilos | or is it dpkg | 18:57 |
Kilos | dpkg: error processing python-louis (--configure): | 18:57 |
Kilos | dependency problems - leaving unconfigured | 18:57 |
Kilos | No apport report written because the error message indicates its a followup error from a previous failure. | 18:57 |
Kilos | Errors were encountered while processing: | 18:57 |
Kilos | python-support | 18:57 |
Kilos | python-louis | 18:57 |
Kilos | E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) | 18:57 |
Kilos | sorry for that large post | 18:57 |
superfly | Kilos: just run "sudo aptitude -f install" | 19:03 |
Kilos | ty superfly | 19:04 |
Kilos | same thing superfly | 19:09 |
Kilos | http://slexy.org/view/s20qOhXQCi | 19:09 |
Kilos | is it because i completely removed midori perhaps | 19:10 |
superfly | Kilos: ah, now I see what your problem is | 19:13 |
superfly | what were you trying to do? | 19:13 |
Kilos | i told midori full page and couldnt see anything else | 19:13 |
Kilos | no panels etc | 19:13 |
Kilos | so i completely removed it via synaptic | 19:14 |
Kilos | thats when the error messages started | 19:14 |
superfly | Kilos: it doesn't look like you did it properly | 19:56 |
Kilos | ]i did everything via synaptic superfly | 19:57 |
Kilos | and install sometimes with aptitude | 19:57 |
Kilos | no more foreign stuff | 19:57 |
superfly | Kilos: try "sudo aptitude purge midori" | 19:59 |
Kilos | nope same errors | 20:01 |
Kilos | python-support and python-louis | 20:02 |
Kilos | oh superfly i had to boot 3 or 4 times till it got to recovery mode and did that and also grub update from there as well. could that be the prob | 20:13 |
Kilos | i just did aptitude install python-doc and it downloaded 5.7m | 20:14 |
Kilos | but gave same error | 20:14 |
Kilos | http://slexy.org/view/s20l7kOFIL | 20:14 |
Kilos | how can it download so much if system was up to date | 20:15 |
Kilos | is there a key to press to get to boot into the mode where you choose recovery or another version . i just keep rebboting till it stops there on its own | 20:23 |
cocooncrash | # | 20:32 |
cocooncrash | Package python-support is not configured yet. | 20:32 |
cocooncrash | That looks like the root error. | 20:32 |
cocooncrash | Kilos: Try aptitude reinstall python-support | 20:32 |
Kilos | ok | 20:33 |
Kilos | nope. same error report | 20:34 |
cocooncrash | Oh, also on man-db | 20:35 |
cocooncrash | Something's stuffed, I'm not sure what | 20:35 |
Kilos | yip. aptitude reinstall man-db gives same error | 20:38 |
Kilos | how do i aptitude reinstall from scratch | 20:38 |
cocooncrash | Kilos: Try dpkg-reconfigure python-support | 20:38 |
cocooncrash | And dpkg-reconfigure man-db | 20:39 |
Kilos | ok | 20:39 |
Kilos | miles@P4:~$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure python-support | 20:40 |
Kilos | /usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure: python-support is broken or not fully installed | 20:40 |
Kilos | miles@P4:~$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure man-db | 20:41 |
Kilos | Updating database of manual pages ... | 20:41 |
Kilos | Segmentation fault | 20:41 |
cocooncrash | Hrm, okay, let's try get dpkg out the picture | 20:42 |
cocooncrash | sudo /var/lib/dpkg/info/man-db.postinst | 20:43 |
Kilos | ok | 20:43 |
Kilos | no reports | 20:43 |
cocooncrash | So it seems to be dpkg itself, not the scripts. | 20:44 |
Kilos | will it give that on cli | 20:44 |
Kilos | or is it inna file somewhere | 20:45 |
cocooncrash | What do you mean? | 20:45 |
Kilos | when i run that command will it report on termial | 20:46 |
Kilos | terminal | 20:46 |
Kilos | not in logs somewhere | 20:46 |
cocooncrash | That last one? It should only output on the terminal. | 20:47 |
cocooncrash | If you just got your prompt back then it worked. | 20:47 |
Kilos | great | 20:47 |
cocooncrash | I'm wondering whether there are some dpkg hooks which are breaking. | 20:47 |
Kilos | is there a way to fix broken packages | 20:48 |
Kilos | without knowing which one is actually broken | 20:49 |
cocooncrash | I don't think it's the package which is broken | 20:49 |
cocooncrash | I think dpkg itself is broken. | 20:49 |
Kilos | eish | 20:49 |
cocooncrash | Kilos: Try "apt-get -f install" | 20:51 |
Kilos | ok | 20:51 |
Kilos | same errors | 20:52 |
cocooncrash | Kilos: Um, try: dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archive/man-db_*.deb | 20:57 |
Kilos | ok | 20:58 |
Kilos | dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archive/man-db_*.deb (--install): | 20:58 |

Kilos | /var/cache/apt/archive/man-db_*.deb | 20:58 |

Kilos | sudo: /var/cache/apt/archives/man-db_2.5.7-4_i386.deb: command not found | 21:01 |
cocooncrash | sudo dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archives/man-db_*.deb | 21:02 |
Kilos | no error message | 21:03 |
cocooncrash | Ooh | 21:03 |
Kilos | will paste to bin | 21:03 |
cocooncrash | That's fine, now do: | 21:03 |
cocooncrash | sudo dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archives/python-support_*.deb | 21:03 |
Kilos | ok | 21:03 |
Kilos | dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/python-support_*.deb (--install): | 21:04 |

Kilos | Errors were encountered while processing: | 21:04 |
Kilos | /var/cache/apt/archives/python-support_*.deb | 21:04 |
cocooncrash | Hrm, you don't have that deb | 21:04 |
cocooncrash | aptitude download python-support; sudo dpkg -i python-support_*.deb | 21:04 |
Kilos | ok | 21:05 |
Kilos | Segmentation fault | 21:05 |
Kilos | Errors were encountered while processing: | 21:05 |
Kilos | python-support | 21:05 |
cocooncrash | Meh | 21:06 |
cocooncrash | I don't know what else to suggest | 21:06 |
Kilos | ok ty for the help i will do a clean install | 21:07 |
Kilos | is there a way to go straight to the recovery mode | 21:07 |
Kilos | at least this time it missed python-louis | 21:08 |
Kilos | see you all tomorrow. sleep tight. ty for the help | 21:18 |
Kilos | hey guys its fixed | 21:36 |
Kilos | seeing as i was gonna do a clean install i decided to play in root | 21:37 |
Kilos | sudo -i | 21:37 |
Kilos | then aptitude install dpkg and man-db and python support | 21:37 |
Kilos | python-support | 21:38 |
Kilos | now synaptic is working as well. i so happy. 100m data saved | 21:38 |

Kilos | cheeky bot | 21:40 |
cocooncrash | Kilos: Nice! | 21:40 |
Kilos | that was just fluke ty for the help cocooncrash you taught me to use sudo -i a year ago | 21:41 |
cocooncrash | :-) | 21:41 |
Kilos | but i normally stuff up there so i stay clear. but now i had nothing to lose and everything to gain | 21:42 |
Maaz | Coffee's ready for Kilos! | 21:43 |
