AndroidLoverInSF | if i have ubuntu 11.04 and installed the kde package, and use that primarily, to upgrade to 11.10, do i follow the ubuntu directions (then install kde packages), or do i run the 11.04 -> 11.10 from kde? | 00:21 |
dahlia | is there another package I can install to listen to shoutcast? I was using amarok but I couldnt figure out the UI and it stopped working completely | 00:25 |
Renegade15 | both vlc and smplayer should be able to listen to shoutcast streams | 00:26 |
dahlia | ty Ill try those | 00:26 |
dahlia | I tried installing mplayer but it doesnt seem to work either | 00:27 |
Renegade15 | what exactly are you looking for? | 00:28 |
dahlia | something to listen to music with. I usually listen to shoutcast and also my mp3 collection | 00:29 |
=== odin__ is now known as CrazyBonz | ||
dahlia | I was using amarok but it just stopped working completely, no idea why and I didnt even touch it | 00:29 |
Renegade15 | have you looked at songbird? http://getsongbird.com/ | 00:30 |
dahlia | Id prefer to just use whatever I can install from aptitude first | 00:30 |
Renegade15 | looks like they killed the linux version anyway | 00:32 |
* Renegade15 is behind the times | 00:32 | |
dahlia | hmmm is there a linux winamp? | 00:33 |
what_if | xmms / xmms2 | 00:33 |
dahlia | oh I remember trying that once and totally failing lol | 00:34 |
Renegade15 | those two are problematic, imo | 00:35 |
westmi | VLC WORKS PRETTY GOOD | 00:35 |
westmi | crap sory about the caps | 00:35 |
Renegade15 | xmms was awesome, but it's outdated/discontinued | 00:35 |
Renegade15 | and xmms2 is still in preview releases, as far as I can see | 00:35 |
Renegade15 | wasn't very feature-rich/stable last I tried it, though that's admittedly been a while | 00:36 |
what_if | ahhh.. looks like I'm behind on xmms :) | 00:36 |
dahlia | installing smplayer, vlc, and xmms2. will see how they work | 00:36 |
Renegade15 | wikipedia says the last stable was on 16 Nov 2007 | 00:36 |
Renegade15 | a pity, really...it was as close as you could get to winamp | 00:37 |
dahlia | vlc seems to be working :) | 00:39 |
dahlia | anyone know how to set it as default player when I download a stream playlist on firefox? | 00:40 |
dahlia | oh and ty for suggestions :) | 00:40 |
Renegade15 | in the system settings, there's the app preference thingy | 00:40 |
Renegade15 | in FF, in the Preferences, you have the Applications settings | 00:41 |
Renegade15 | those would be my places to start, though I didn't set that up myself | 00:41 |
Renegade15 | System Settings -> Hardware area -> Multimedia is what I mean | 00:42 |
dahlia | ah ok I was looking in file associations | 00:42 |
Renegade15 | my firefox actually has icecast and shoutcast playlists as already existing application types I can configure | 00:43 |
Renegade15 | so go there, I'd guess ;) | 00:43 |
dahlia | lol I cant even find preferences in FF | 00:45 |
Renegade15 | are you coming straight from windows? | 00:46 |
dahlia | I forgot to mention my eyes are kinda... meh...bad | 00:46 |
dahlia | no Ive used linux for a long time but not kde | 00:46 |
dahlia | I was using gnome but I cant handle the latest ubuntu unity stuff | 00:47 |
Renegade15 | check under Edit, is my point | 00:47 |
dahlia | so Im using kubuntu now | 00:47 |
Renegade15 | KDE > * | 00:47 |
dahlia | I like kde but it confuses me sometimes | 00:48 |
Renegade15 | how so? | 00:48 |
dahlia | not knowing where to look for things | 00:48 |
dahlia | and amarok was totally confusing to me too | 00:49 |
Renegade15 | eh | 00:49 |
dahlia | I dont see well and I didnt understand the icons | 00:49 |
* Renegade15 never liked Amarok | 00:49 | |
dahlia | hmmm FF says VLC for a lot of applications | 00:49 |
dahlia | so maybe its working just from installing vlc and deleting amarok | 00:50 |
dahlia | ty :) | 00:50 |
Renegade15 | VLC is a very solid player and among the best open source products there are - you should have no issues with it | 00:51 |
dahlia | cool | 00:51 |
Renegade15 | I've rarely seen anything it didn't play | 00:51 |
Renegade15 | and those were usually very exotic codecs | 00:51 |
westmi | vlc does play video's also :) | 00:53 |
dahlia | I remember having it on ubuntu 9.1 and I liked it | 00:53 |
dahlia | also used... totem? | 00:54 |
dahlia | totem had a nice graphical thingie | 00:54 |
* Renegade15 never used that one, either | 00:54 | |

Zacarias | Ok, I changed my computer's name using this link http://www.tech-recipes.com/rx/2732/ubuntu_how_to_change_computer_name/ (I changed the two files) and now I'm stuck at the kdm login screen. Whenever I enter my username and password, it loops back to the login window with an empty password. Any help? | 02:13 |
Zacarias | I can login via the console, however | 02:14 |
DarthFrog | Zacarias: Two files? What two files? /etc/hostname is the only one you needed to edit. | 02:30 |
Zacarias | DarthFrog: In the commentaries there were several ones advising to change /etc/hosts also. I did it before restarting | 02:34 |
DarthFrog | But just hosts and hostname? That's not what's causing your GUI login problem, I shouldn't think. However, since you can login at the console, change them back and see if it makes any difference. | 02:36 |

CainMadness | I am having a problem getting plasma themes to work. I install them with the built-in theme lists, shows an uninstall button.. But I can't find them in the list to choose from, to change theme. What did I break? | 02:40 |
DarthFrog | CainMadness: I don't know but you get to keep both pieces! :-) Did you log out and log back in again? I don't know if that makes any difference, though. | 02:42 |
CainMadness | I went even so far to restart the netbook. | 02:43 |
CainMadness | Still not showing in the list. Puzzling. | 02:43 |

Zacarias | DarthFrog: I was able to open the file with nano instead of gedit. But I don't know what to do with it now | 03:16 |
DarthFrog | Change it such that the name in /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts (for 127.0.0.1) are the same. | 03:17 |
DarthFrog | You don't need to have your hostname in /etc/hosts. "127.0.0.1 localhost" is perfectly acceptable. | 03:19 |
Zacarias | DarthFrog: ok, I'll try that | 03:23 |
Zacarias | DarthFrog: I deleted all the mentions to my hostname in /etc/hosts But I keep having the same problem. Login screen, then some visual noise in the screen, then the login again | 03:30 |
DarthFrog | Zacarias: Your hostname is set in /etc/hostname. Somewhere, there is a misconfiguration. Change that name back to exactly what it was before. | 03:32 |
Zacarias | DarthFrog: yes, I'll try that too | 03:33 |
Zacarias | DarthFrog: Yes, that solved the problem. Is there a rule for creating hostname's? I have a hostname with two words like this "myname-xubuntu" (I was using Xubuntu before), and I tried to change ut to "Myname Ubuntu". What was the problem, do you know? | 03:41 |
DarthFrog | Zacarias: You can name your computer anything you want, in one word. But I would presume that you introduced a conflict by changing the name by hand. | 03:42 |
DarthFrog | You could try "sudo hostname <new name>", which is a better way to do it. | 03:43 |
Zacarias | DarthFrog: Or by the fact that there where two separate words, maybe? Anyway, thanks for your help! | 03:44 |
DarthFrog | Two words? I would think that might have caused the problem. | 03:44 |
Zacarias | DarthFrog: Yes, the name I tried was "Carlos Ubuntu" (Carlos is my name, of course). | 03:46 |
DarthFrog | Hmm, it seems that the hostname command doesn't make a permanent change and that editing /etc/hostname by hand is the way to do it. :-) "man hostname" for details. | 03:46 |
DarthFrog | Zacarias: Try "Carlos_Ubuntu" | 03:46 |
Zacarias | DarthFrog: Ok! | 03:46 |
Zacarias | DarthFrog: I'll try that. | 03:46 |

ralf_ | hi | 10:47 |
ralf_ | i've got a question, i'm developing a qt based media and game library | 10:47 |
ralf_ | i'm looking for a way to list the installed games | 10:47 |
ralf_ | or list installed packages from the 'games and amusement' category | 10:48 |
ralf_ | i have some less than ideal ideas such as parsing the system menu | 10:49 |
ralf_ | is there a better way? | 10:49 |
ts2 | ralf_: use the apt/dpkg database, if you're only interested in Debian/Ubuntu based distros | 10:50 |
ts2 | QApt is the library that things like muon use to interface with dpkg/apt -> https://launchpad.net/qapt | 10:51 |
ralf_ | thanks for the tip but I don't think I would be able to make use of that since I use Lua | 10:55 |
ralf_ | and lqt as the qt binding | 10:55 |
ralf_ | i can use dpkg --get-selections to list the installed packages | 10:58 |
ralf_ | i just need to set a 'games' filter | 10:58 |
ts2 | yeah, your best bet is to use popen dpkg | 10:58 |
ralf_ | or use qprocess and read the input | 10:59 |
ts2 | qprocess does popen ;) | 10:59 |
ralf_ | ok then how to filter the dpkg output to categories | 11:00 |
ralf_ | reading the man page atm | 11:00 |
ts2 | ralf_: maybe just parsing /var/lib/dpkg/status will help | 11:02 |
ralf_ | ok thanks, that might be useful | 11:07 |
ralf_ | another question | 11:07 |
ralf_ | i would like to install a global shortcut for my app | 11:07 |
ts2 | you need to create a .desktop file for your app, and place it in /usr/share/applications | 11:08 |
ts2 | the format is INI style, you mostly just need an Type, Exec, and Name entry, then it should appear in the menu | 11:09 |
ralf_ | but officially, as in add a KDE component in System Settings > Global Keyboard Shortcuts, and then list the shortcuts in there | 11:09 |
ralf_ | ok let's see | 11:10 |
ts2 | oh, a keyboard shortcut | 11:10 |
ts2 | that's a little different | 11:11 |
ts2 | to use the KDE shortcut system, you need a KDE application (using the KDE libraries), but Qt allows for global shortcuts as far as I know | 11:11 |
ralf_ | the .desktop info is useful too, thanks for that | 11:12 |
ralf_ | actually i could iterate over all the desktop shortcuts for installed games, answers my first question ;) | 11:14 |
ralf_ | but afaik qt does not support global shortcuts | 11:14 |
ts2 | I've never really tried to create a global shortcut, usually I'm only interested in shortcuts when my app has focus | 11:16 |
ralf_ | i'd like to assign the media control buttons | 11:21 |
ralf_ | y'know, play, next, previous, volume control etc | 11:21 |
ralf_ | purpose of those is somewhat defeated if you need to focus the player first | 11:21 |
ts2 | you probably need to use the KDE libs, or X directly for that | 11:21 |
ts2 | KDE has a daemon that listens for all events and passes them along to the app | 11:22 |
ralf_ | dbus? | 11:22 |
ts2 | via dbus, yes | 11:22 |
ralf_ | i noticed you can import keyboard shortcut schemes in global shortcut settings | 11:24 |
ralf_ | so maybe I could just create a file and then import that | 11:24 |
ts2 | the thing is, KDE would have no way to inform your application that the shortcut was activated unless it was registered with the KDE system (at least, that's how I understand it) | 11:25 |
ralf_ | i'm looking at an exported kksrc file | 11:28 |
ralf_ | for example | 11:28 |
ralf_ | [yakuake][Global Shortcuts] | 11:28 |
ralf_ | toggle-window-state=F12 | 11:28 |
ralf_ | maybe the first field would be the window class | 11:29 |
ralf_ | the second row the function in the app to call | 11:29 |
ralf_ | then the last field the key | 11:29 |
ralf_ | but that's probably wishful thinking | 11:29 |
ts2 | I doubt there is a system to directly call methods in a foreign application | 11:30 |
ralf_ | ok, last question for now | 11:34 |
ralf_ | you've been helpful so far, thx :) | 11:34 |
ralf_ | i would like to trigger a function when a usb device is connected | 11:35 |
ralf_ | through qt if possible | 11:35 |
ts2 | ralf_: that's not really possible in plain Qt, though you could probably do it with QtDBus and listen for signals from the system bus | 11:36 |
ralf_ | ok, i do not have the qtdbus library anyway | 11:37 |
ralf_ | so forget about that for now | 11:37 |
ts2 | there is also the Qt Mobility API, but that's a separate set of libraries build on Qt | 11:38 |
ralf_ | i'm restricted to the libs lqt offers me | 11:39 |

PadurKaril | HI | 11:41 |
ralf_ | maybe another tiny question | 11:43 |
ralf_ | in my app, i need to browse for an executable | 11:43 |
ralf_ | I can check whether the file is executable, but not whether it is the one i'm looking for | 11:44 |
ralf_ | so i would need to look into the file and get stuff such as the description and version | 11:45 |
ralf_ | so i'm looking at some ELF documentation | 11:45 |
ralf_ | and commands such as 'file' and 'strings' | 11:45 |
ralf_ | but i don't think they do what i want | 11:46 |

pardo | ok, let me a moment. I show you in a few seconds | 17:06 |
daniele | If you has never touched the /etc/sudoers and similar files. the problem is usually quite simple | 17:08 |

daniele | no pardo, i'm italian | 17:16 |
pardo | ok, no problem. | 17:16 |
BluesKaj | pardo, libreoffice updates are broken at the moment due to a bug , so it's probly just that app that's a problem. | 17:16 |
daniele | exactly sicily, but we're not as the godfather shows you man :D we're mostly great people | 17:16 |
pardo | ok, read this please: The problem is that to install LibreOffice, I must first uninstall OpenOffice. So first try to uninstall Openoffice with this line of code: sudo apt-get purge openoffice. For console but when I enter my password and I enter, it shows me this error: Violation of the segment. | 17:17 |
BluesKaj | pardo, keep open office for now , libreoffice is broken | 17:18 |
pardo | it's so bad. | 17:18 |
BluesKaj | yes | 17:18 |
BluesKaj | pardo, . wait for a week or so until the problem is fixed | 17:19 |
pardo | very funny Daniele :D i think you are great people. The godfather is only a stereotype. | 17:20 |
daniele | the error is very strange | 17:21 |
pardo | thanks BluesKaj, I'll be watching :) | 17:21 |
daniele | it happens with any program you try to uninstall? | 17:21 |
pardo | I try uninstal only this. | 17:22 |
BluesKaj | daniele, the libreoffice is partly installed but it can't finish installing due to the broken dependencies some other apps also require . You can try purging the partly installe libre office manually by purging but I doubt that it will work | 17:24 |
BluesKaj | pardo ^ | 17:24 |
BluesKaj | sorry daniele , that was meant for pardo | 17:25 |
pardo | But, in general, when i try install other one, it show me the same error. | 17:25 |
daniele | yeah, i got it BlueSkaj, and i think you're right | 17:25 |

pardo | ok BluesKaj, I run the code and it works. | 17:41 |
pardo | Thanks | 17:41 |
BluesKaj | wesker, it shouldn't be a problem , 11.10 is quite stable | 17:42 |
BluesKaj | pardo, glad to to hear it :) | 17:42 |
wesker | Thanks | 17:42 |
BluesKaj | wesker, your friends are running kubntu 11.04 ? | 17:43 |
=== savio is now known as RocknRolla | ||
BluesKaj | perhaps ubuntu 11.10 might be a problem , but not kubuntu , wesker | 17:44 |
daniele | no it isn't | 17:44 |

wesker | How to patch KDE2 under FreeBSD? xD | 18:13 |
mozzy | is there a fix for muon center? | 18:14 |
mozzy | ill try update and upgrade again today, hasnt fixed it | 18:15 |
mozzy | last update broke muon :( | 18:19 |
mozzy | and fixs for muon or other package manager recomendations? | 18:20 |
mozzy | any* | 18:20 |
mozzy | ty | 18:20 |
mozzy | had to run sudo dpkg --configure -a | 18:22 |
mozzy | when it asked me to | 18:22 |
mozzy | i ran it and let it fix | 18:22 |
mozzy | then retried updates to fix muon in terminal | 18:22 |
mozzy | it said 0 new updates | 18:22 |
mozzy | like i was upto date even tho dpkg hung badly during updates the first round | 18:23 |
mozzy | any help would be appreciated, ty in advance | 18:23 |
mozzy | seraching forum for recomendations... | 18:27 |
mozzy | seen this issue on 3 kubuntu PCs so far | 18:28 |
mozzy | "Executable: muon-installer PID: 1820 Signal: Segmentation fault (11)" | 18:29 |
mozzy | should i just try to update muon alone...in terminal? | 18:29 |
mozzy | sudo apt=get muon-installer ? | 18:31 |
mozzy | sudo apt-get muon-installer | 18:31 |
mozzy | can anyone plxz advise me, do i need to remove muon center before i reinstall | 18:32 |
mozzy | -.- | 18:33 |
mozzy | met with silence,,, | 18:33 |
BarkingFish | mozzy: first of all, please don't use enter as a punctuation mark :) You can type two or three lines without flooding safely :) | 18:34 |
mozzy | oh gosh | 18:34 |
mozzy | lol | 18:34 |
mozzy | ok then, ill try to keep it all to one line and condense | 18:34 |
BarkingFish | anyhow, try to reinstall muon-installer - you can use this command: sudo apt-get install muon-installer --reinstall | 18:35 |
mozzy | deal, ty | 18:36 |
mozzy | i was missing the --reinstall part, ill add it to my notes ty | 18:36 |
BarkingFish | if you can't get it to work, there are other graphic package managers within kubuntu, which are nicer than muon anyway! :) | 18:36 |
* BarkingFish is biased, but likes apper | 18:36 | |
mozzy | oh ya!?! | 18:36 |
mozzy | :) | 18:36 |
mozzy | thought there might be | 18:37 |
BarkingFish | hi again wesker__ - I saw your post up above. We don't deal with KDE2 or with FreeBSD here - if you have questions about KDE, they go in #kde - FreeBSD questions in ##freebsd :) | 18:38 |
mozzy | invalid operation, I tryed sudo apt-get muon-installer(andinstaller) --reinstall | 18:40 |
mozzy | brb | 18:40 |
BarkingFish | ok | 18:40 |
BarkingFish | that's cause I gave you the command the wrong way round, mozzy - sorry :) | 18:41 |
BarkingFish | It should be: sudo apt-get install --reinstall muon-installer | 18:41 |
utente | is there a boot option like this "cdrom-detect/try-usb=true" however for HD or partitions? | 18:54 |
utente | anyone home? | 18:56 |
mozzy | ty BarkingFish the command worked and reinstalled muon perfectly, unfortunatly the error remains | 19:02 |
mozzy | "Executable: muon-installer PID: 1820 Signal: Segmentation fault (11)" | 19:03 |
BarkingFish | hm | 19:03 |
mozzy | a lib perhaps? | 19:03 |
BarkingFish | are you able to use any of the other gui package managers? | 19:03 |
mozzy | now its PID 1919 | 19:03 |
BarkingFish | possibly. which version of kubuntu are you on | 19:03 |
mozzy | 11.10 | 19:03 |
mozzy | fresh install | 19:03 |
mozzy | ran all updates and dpkg hung | 19:04 |
mozzy | had to do a dpkg --configure -a for it to sort itself out | 19:04 |
BarkingFish | mozzy: try using apper and see how you get on | 19:04 |
BarkingFish | and I'll look into muon-installer and see what the heck is going on | 19:04 |
mozzy | ok, whats the terminal command | 19:05 |
mozzy | TY | 19:05 |
mozzy | its happened on 3 PCs now, that i know of | 19:05 |
BluesKaj | I wish the devs would issue a bug about muon , this is becoming a pita , and it hasn't been stable since it's inception | 19:05 |
mozzy | updates can be killers on any operating system | 19:06 |
BarkingFish | mozzy: if you're in a GUI, just press ALT + F2 and type apper, hit enter and it will go from there | 19:06 |
mozzy | more testing is required | 19:06 |
mozzy | ok | 19:06 |
BluesKaj | mozzy, forget muon , use apper or apt-get in the terminal | 19:06 |
BarkingFish | I say we send this back to upstream, BluesKaj - muon is not good. | 19:06 |
BarkingFish | let me have a work in the dev channel | 19:07 |
BarkingFish | *word | 19:07 |
mozzy | ok, no luck with apper run command | 19:07 |
mozzy | must not be installed | 19:07 |
mozzy | TY | 19:07 |
BluesKaj | BarkingFish, they're aware of it upstream I'm sure , the dam thing has never worked from the get-go | 19:07 |
mozzy | think ill need to do up apper via terminal | 19:08 |
BluesKaj | hmm, apper doesn't seem to be listed in kmenu>apps>system | 19:09 |
BarkingFish | mozzy: sudo apt-get install apper | 19:09 |
mozzy | will do barkingfish ty | 19:09 |
BarkingFish | BluesKaj: I have it right at the top of the K button, System - Apper (Software Management) | 19:10 |
BarkingFish | i gotta go out guys, be back in about 50 mins or so. | 19:11 |
mozzy | ok | 19:11 |
mozzy | cya later, thx again | 19:11 |
BarkingFish | np | 19:11 |
BluesKaj | BarkingFish, I probly removed it a while back in one of my cleanup apps ai never use moods :) | 19:11 |
mozzy | ahhh, apper is nice :) | 19:12 |
mozzy | going to test install a few things, see how it reacts | 19:12 |
BluesKaj | dumped all the relevant dirs and folders for akonadi , now I'm about to do the same for nepomuk . usr/bin, usr/lib, usr/share etc | 19:13 |

Viktorious | Quick question, I'm running out of space on a virtual installation, so I create a new virtual hard drive so I can move /home over to that harddrive. I only have the following question: | 20:05 |
Viktorious | If I set the mount point of say /dev/sdb1 as /home, and edit my fstab then it should work right? But then what happens when the system mounts my other hard drive, which has "/" as a mount point?? | 20:06 |
Viktorious | Since /home would be a part of "/" anyway? | 20:06 |
daneshar | i am using a wi-fi dongle. its asking for network name in hidden network . what to give the name ???? | 20:06 |
BarkingFish | daneshar: you can only connect to a hidden wifi network if you know the SSID it uses to broadcast | 20:12 |
BarkingFish | if you don't know the name of the network, you're stuck. Ask whoever administers the network, assuming you're supposed to have access to it :) | 20:12 |
daneshar | how i can do that ? | 20:13 |
BarkingFish | all networks have a name to broadcast under - some hide the name so that only authorised persons can connect to it - they'd be given the details by the owner of the network. If there's a hidden network, and you don't know its name, the chances are you're not meant to be on it. If you are, speak to whoever owns or runs the network. | 20:15 |
klgu | wesker_, yes my system is on my language | 20:15 |
daneshar | how to scan that ? | 20:17 |
klgu | wesker_, thanks for your help I have to go see if I fix it later. to another bye | 20:18 |
wesker_ | Good luck | 20:19 |
BarkingFish | daneshar: You can't scan for the name of a hidden network. That's the whole reason it's hidden :P | 20:20 |
daneshar | then how to connect other network ? | 20:21 |
wesker_ | all the secret actually is clearly =))) | 20:22 |
wesker_ | <daneshar Network manager installed? | 20:23 |
Snowhog | daneshar: If there isn't another "unhidden" network in the scan, then you can't. | 20:23 |
BarkingFish | daneshar: if you're using network manager, it should show a list of networks which are available. if there's one in the list you have permission to access, like a public wifi, click it and you'll be asked for its password if it has one. enter the password and wait, and you'll get connected | 20:23 |
BarkingFish | if there is nothing else in that list, no wifi networks other than a hidden one are available | 20:23 |
daneshar | thanks buddy now i understand ! | 20:24 |
wesker_ | are you sure that you are an access point? | 20:26 |

josm | Hi, im having issues with my sources.list. Trying to add only php5 packages from dotdeb but its unable to find Packages.gz. | 21:37 |
Snowhog | josm: What is the entry you have in sources.list for dotdeb? | 21:51 |
josm | deb http://packages.dotdeb.org stable php5 | 21:51 |
Snowhog | josm: That isn't correct. What version of Kubuntu are you running? | 21:52 |
josm | Snowhog: Ubuntu 10.04.3 LTS | 21:53 |
josm | The syntax might be wrong, but it should at least be the same for all ubuntu/debian servers | 21:53 |
Snowhog | josm: See http://www.dotdeb.org/instructions/ for instructions on adding the entry for your sources.list as well as getting the gpg key. | 21:58 |
josm | Snowhog: yes i did that initially. Problem is, I dont want to use the other packages, like mysql, from dotdeb | 21:59 |
josm | Snowhog: I just want to use php5 and nginx | 21:59 |
josm | And I must use the sources.list, since im gona do the same on several machines. automatic distribution of sources.list via puppet | 22:00 |
josm | And for what I can find in man sources.list, its supposed to work the way I think. Perhaps *if* there is an packages.gz in the php5 directory? | 22:01 |
josm | Snowhog: thanks for looking into it | 22:06 |
Snowhog | josm: Try changing the entry to this: deb http://packages.dotdeb.org/dists/ stable php5 | 22:08 |
josm | Snowhog: Packages.gz 404 Not Found | 22:09 |
josm | :( | 22:09 |
josm | it says dists/dists actualy | 22:12 |
Snowhog | josm: I don't think you are going to be able to do what you want - limit to php5 package only. The Packages.gz files are only in the ../dist/stable/all/binary-* directories. | 22:20 |
josm | perhaps. But how do one control which repos, specific packages should be fetched from? | 22:22 |
josm | was reading about apt-pinning, but i have always thought it were to hold a package at a version | 22:23 |
josm | not control repo | 22:23 |
josm | Default is to install the package with highest version number. And I dont want mysql to be updated from a less stable repository | 22:25 |
josm | man apt_preferences | 22:28 |
