| darkblue_b | hi all - anyone care to advise on a dist-upgrade? | 00:16 |
|---|---|---|
| darkblue_b | I had an 11.10 on a remote server, and I decided to give it a try | 00:16 |
| darkblue_b | apt-get update;apt-get upgrade;apt-get autoclean;reboot | 00:16 |
| darkblue_b | apt-get update; | 00:16 |
| darkblue_b | no dist-upgrade yet.. now I notice that my /etc/apt/sources.list shows precise.. I dont think that was there before | 00:17 |
| darkblue_b | apt-get update returns a whole bunch of "something wicked" msgs with an obviously defective URL | 00:17 |
| darkblue_b | though it did do something that worked, and apt-get autoclean works ok | 00:18 |
| darkblue_b | I was about to do the apt-get dist-upgrade anyway.. but now I got | 00:18 |
| darkblue_b | .. WARNING: The following packages cannot be authenticated! | 00:18 |
| darkblue_b | linux-image-3.2.0-27-generic linux-headers-3.2.0-27 linux-headers-3.2.0-27-generic linux-headers-server | 00:18 |
| darkblue_b | linux-server linux-image-server | 00:18 |
| darkblue_b | so the new kernal isnt authenticated.. I am not that great with repo keys and all | 00:19 |
| pleia2 | "dist-upgrade" doesn't mean it's upgrading you to the next version, it's just downloading updates to your current version, so at some point you must have told your sources.list to change to precise | 00:19 |
| darkblue_b | should I be very concerned ? | 00:19 |
| darkblue_b | pleia2: ok, I am listening | 00:19 |
| pleia2 | you can use dist-upgrade to go to the next version, but in ubuntu if you're doing a command line upgrade you really want to use "sudo do-release-upgrade" since that catches things that just changing your sources and dist-upgrading may miss | 00:20 |
| darkblue_b | ah oh | 00:20 |
| darkblue_b | that sounds familiar - thx for that | 00:20 |
| pleia2 | but if you've already updated a bunch of stuff to precise, it's too late ;) | 00:20 |
| darkblue_b | hah - its actually a very side server.. not essential .. so no panic | 00:20 |
| darkblue_b | so perhaps I will do this do-release-upgrade | 00:21 |
| pleia2 | you probably want to install (or update) the ubuntu-keyring package | 00:21 |
| darkblue_b | ah | 00:21 |
| darkblue_b | "ubuntu-keyring is already the newest version.' | 00:22 |
| darkblue_b | good thought though | 00:22 |
| pleia2 | ah | 00:22 |
| pleia2 | 3.2.0-27 is the current kernel in precise, odd that it wouldn't be validating | 00:22 |
| darkblue_b | odd - this is precise already ! | 00:23 |
| darkblue_b | I am either forgetting that I did that, or I lost track of something :-) | 00:23 |
| pleia2 | :) | 00:23 |
| darkblue_b | hmm so actaully I have a 12.04 and I just did the upgrade | 00:23 |
| darkblue_b | just this linux kernal missing auth | 00:23 |
| pleia2 | seems like | 00:23 |
| darkblue_b | yeah - thx for your patience | 00:24 |
| pleia2 | I need to run to dinner, good luck :) | 00:24 |
| darkblue_b | cheers pleia2 | 00:24 |
| darkblue_b | sudo apt-get install members ## WARNING the following cannot be authenticated.. argh! | 00:48 |

| darkblue_b | d d d dang | 00:51 |
| darkblue_b | bad dns | 00:53 |
| darkblue_b | betcha | 00:53 |
| darkblue_b | 12.04 dns nameservers .. uuurgh | 00:53 |
| darkblue_b | adding line.. lalala | 00:55 |
| * darkblue_b tries to be cheery when faced with annoying minutia | 00:56 | |
| darkblue_b | sorry for the noise everyone.. hopefully done soon | 00:56 |
| dbb | hi all - just to share back what I learned from yesterdays update.. it was the lack of dns-nameserver entry in /etc/netwrok/interfaces that caused the apt repo lookups to fail, and after they failed, the "could not authenticate" msgs for individual packages were persistant | 22:25 |
| dbb | so, by adding the dns entry, then apt-get update, then upgrade, then indivudual new packages, things now work as expected | 22:26 |
| dbb | my last mystery is why this IP address isnt shpwing up from the outside but does from the same IP block, but I dont expect help with that :-) | 22:26 |
| dbb | the 12.04 upgrade however, thats probably something to have in the back somewhere for random people like me :-) | 22:27 |
