Still my LTS boxes won't prompt for 14.04.1 [13:13] there must be some debug you can extract to find out why [13:28] penguin42, hi all [13:36] hey maps|wrk [14:12] it's not broken. they won't prompt because http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/meta-release-lts doesn't contain an entry for 14.04 yet [14:13] .. bug 1344762 [14:13] bug 1344762 in update-notifier (Ubuntu) "update-notifier tells me to upgrade from 12.04.4 LTS to 14.04 LTS (because of HWE), but that release is not found" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1344762 [14:16] hello all, wonder if I could get a little help with upgrading? I am trying to upgrade from 12.04 though dont have a DVD and the software update wont let me - it gives an error downloading the upgrade. Sudo apt-get upgrade from the prompt gives me a load of errors with the repositories. Is there a simple way round all this? [14:17] sup penguin42 === maps|wrk is now known as mapps [14:18] what errors [14:18] this is what I get when I try........W: Duplicate sources.list entry http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu/ precise/partner i386 Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/archive.canonical.com_ubuntu_dists_precise_partner_binary-i386_Packages) [14:18] W: Duplicate sources.list entry http://packages.medibuntu.org/ precise/free i386 Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/packages.medibuntu.org_dists_precise_free_binary-i386_Packages) [14:18] W: Duplicate sources.list entry http://packages.medibuntu.org/ precise/non-free i386 Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/packages.medibuntu.org_dists_precise_non-free_binary-i386_Packages) [14:18] W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems [14:18] paste bin it [14:18] do sudo apt-get upgrade | pastebinit [14:20] http://paste.ubuntu.com/8008238/ [14:23] will have a look [14:24] this is what I get when I run the update..... http://paste.ubuntu.com/8008274/ [14:25] those are only warnings [14:25] ah [14:25] andrews_: It looks like you've got a duff line in one of your apt config files [14:26] actually a few breakages [14:26] yeah about 5 near the end by the looks of it [14:26] andrews_: First, packages.medibuntu.org seems to be down [14:26] Have no idea how to fix those, I know my way round ubuntu in a very basic sense however thats a bit beyond me [14:27] andrews_: The easiest way is to disable the source; did you add some sources some how? [14:27] how does one clean these up? [14:27] not sure [14:27] dont think I have [14:27] I can get some of the sources though in the update manager cant I [14:27] is this oriignally a medibunto install rather than a plain ubuntu? [14:28] andrews_: You've also got a corrupted line somewhere - Err http://packages precise/non-free Sources [14:29] its just a normal ubuntu install. I added the medibuntu lines a while back to get dvd codecs [14:29] andrews_: Have you edited or added entries in /etc/apt by hand at sometime in the past? [14:30] might have penguin42, yes. will have been a while ago though [14:33] andrews_: OK, so look for any line in /etc/apt/sources.list or /etc/apt/sources.list.d for the medibuntu and remove it, and look for a line that is something like deb http://packages precise without anything else after the packages - because that line is broken [14:35] i just read that the next version of chrome will allow linux usrs to watch netflix :-| [14:35] http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=MTc1ODY [14:35] no wine faffing around [14:39] Ok - done that. Still no joy, can I copy and paste my sources.list to pastebinit from the command line? [14:40] possibly if you have pastebinit installed [14:41] I do.... [14:41] Rather than me copying the contents of sources.list into here! [14:45] just pastebinit filename [14:46] http://paste.ubuntu.com/8008392/ [14:47] will also send the latest version of the errors I now get from sudo apt-get update [14:47] http://paste.ubuntu.com/8008403/ [14:48] so have you looked for the files in /etc/apt.sources.d ? [14:48] ah....no. will do that now [14:51] hmm, theres a sources.list.d directory, which contains a what looks to be individual files market medibuntu. is that what you mean? [14:52] yeh, each of the files in there is added to the /etc/apt.sources.list [14:55] cool - how do I get rid of them? [14:59] just remove them [15:00] wont let me...theres no option to delete [15:01] option? In what? === Lcawte is now known as Lcawte|Away === Lcawte|Away is now known as Lcawte [15:37] just went to places and computer and navigated to the folder from there [15:44] oh, should be able to delete I think on the right-click menu - I'm more of a command line person === Lcawte is now known as Lcawte|Away === Lcawte|Away is now known as Lcawte [19:14] evening [19:14] yo [19:35] What's happening, kids? [19:36] apparently there was a power cut in Cambs [19:38] * bigcalm hugs his power cables === Lcawte is now known as Lcawte|Away [19:42] bigcalm: how can one insulated cable bring so much happiness? [19:55] reminds me i need to re-set the mouse trap [19:56] i've caught 3 since i've been setting traps [20:36] I may or may not have just invented the best prank of all time, and installed it on a friends VPS. https://home.azelphur.com/owncloud/public.php?service=files&t=7b58a5d13bdb1077cbbe8a9c0640bbb0 [20:45] heh [20:46] Cute [20:46] python one liner in the bashrc haha [20:46] now to wait... [20:47] has anyone had experience of scanning magazines? [20:47] about to come into possession of a large number of mags i would like to scan [20:47] for posterity [20:47] Azelphur: how do you get bash to intercept every execution request? [20:48] diddledan: http://pastebin.com/XkerPnRX in bashrc :) [20:48] Azelphur: I know how to intercept things like cd by creating a funciton of the same name as the builtin [20:48] aah [20:48] nifty [20:49] my amazing python one liner \o/ [20:49] * bigcalm ponders installing on work servers [20:50] haha [20:50] that seems like overkill? you can do that in pure bash :) [20:50] heh [20:50] oh, you are .. I just do it a very different way [20:50] hehe [20:52] bash has a var PROMPT_COMMAND. if you set that to a function, it'll run efore PS1 prints [20:52] I see [20:54] but now that I see yours I take back the overkill .. they'd end up the same either way. the bash function would still be full of python :) [20:54] hehe [23:34] so netflix... is all the stuff it shows you before you sign up actually available in the UK? [23:37] never used it, but there's a trial so why not find out? :> [23:47] well it looks like it's still a bit tricky to make it work on linux even if chrome supports it now, kind of [23:48] so i thought i'd ask before i go to the trouble
