| Yoshi11 | gah when i try to install the latest debian package it says something about trying to install a nonexistent file | 10:18 |
|---|---|---|
| kraehe | Yoshi11, yes ;-( | 10:21 |
| kraehe | and even worse - a binary for this package is only available for 64bit | 10:21 |
| kraehe | but you can compile it on your own | 10:22 |
| Yoshi11 | well i have a 64 bit OS | 10:22 |
| Yoshi11 | kraehe: any idea how long till that is fixed? | 10:26 |
| kraehe | nope I'm not a dev | 10:31 |
| kraehe | but I wondered about why there is a need for libbullet - the name of the lib sounds more suited for an action shooter | 10:31 |
| kraehe | perhaps a dev can tell for what Orion needs a real time physics engine | 10:32 |
| Yoshi11 | hmmmm | 10:33 |
| Yoshi11 | is that for real time physics? | 10:33 |
| Yoshi11 | could be ship to ship combat | 10:34 |
| Yoshi11 | i havent tried free orion in a while | 10:34 |
| tomreyn | Yoshi11, kraehe: on the production list, does it show where each item is to be produced? | 10:42 |
| tomreyn | geoff tells me one needs to make the window wider if it doesn't, but i'm playing full screen on 1680x1050 and it won't show | 10:45 |
| Yoshi11 | tomreyn: i cant install it at present | 10:47 |
| tomreyn | Yoshi11: what's that error? | 10:48 |
| tomreyn | you could also try the previous build, maybe that works | 10:48 |
| Yoshi11 | tomreyn: the deb file tries to install a non existent file | 10:49 |
| Yoshi11 | then we cant compare issues accurately | 10:51 |
| tomreyn | Yoshi11: maybe just repack it then | 10:52 |
| tomreyn | http://ailoo.net/2009/06/repack-a-deb-archive-with-dpkg-deb/ | 10:54 |
| tpb | <http://ln-s.net/AqV4> (at ailoo.net) | 10:54 |
| Yoshi11 | i dont even know which file | 10:57 |
| Yoshi11 | gdebi isnt telling me | 10:57 |
| tomreyn | dpkg -l freeorion\* | 10:58 |
| tomreyn | the ones which start with "ii" are installed | 10:59 |
| Yoshi11 | i am not building from source i am using the deb file | 11:00 |
| tomreyn | oh i got your statement wrong, you are saying don't know which file it is missing during the install process. | 11:01 |
| tomreyn | install with "dpkg -i packagename.deb" on a terminal then | 11:01 |
| tomreyn | that should tell | 11:01 |
| tomreyn | (sudo / root needed) | 11:01 |
| Yoshi11 | no i am saying gdebi the gui based deb installer is saying the deb file is trying to install a file that doesnt exist | 11:02 |
| Yoshi11 | and i honestly cant be arsed enough to go to console | 11:02 |
| tomreyn | yeah i got so much | 11:02 |
| tomreyn | (about it saying that) | 11:03 |
| Yoshi11 | dpkg -l fails anyway saying no packages found | 11:05 |
| tomreyn | because they failed to install | 11:06 |
| Yoshi11 | i knew that whats the console command to install a deb? | 11:06 |
| Yoshi11 | i dont normally install them by console | 11:07 |
| tomreyn | <tomreyn> install with "dpkg -i packagename.deb" on a terminal then | 11:07 |
| kraehe | tomreyn, the problem with the current (svn) deb is that it requires a lib that is not part of Wheezy | 11:09 |
| kraehe | Yoshi11, http://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=libbullet-dev <- you might try the one from SID | 11:09 |
| tpb | <http://ln-s.net/AqVd> (at packages.debian.org) | 11:09 |
| Yoshi11 | kraehe: i am using testing not wheezy | 11:11 |
| Yoshi11 | kraehe: the link from jessie says doesnt exist | 11:13 |
| *** vurma has joined #freeorion | 11:16 | |
| Yoshi11 | kraehe: and the version in synaptic doesnt seem to do it | 11:18 |
| tomreyn | it won't be libbullet-dev, he'll be looking for the runtime lib | 11:20 |
| tomreyn | i'm not sure which one that is, though | 11:20 |
| tomreyn | (there are several) | 11:21 |
| tomreyn | "dpkg -I package_name.deb" lists the dependencies filed for a given package pre-install. | 11:24 |
| tomreyn | (thats an upper case i as in iris) | 11:24 |
| Yoshi11 | oh though it was an l | 11:31 |
| Yoshi11 | Depends: python (>= 2.6.6-7~), ttf-dejavu-core, ttf-dejavu-extra | 11:32 |
| Yoshi11 | ??? | 11:32 |
| Yoshi11 | is that the nonexisent stuff? | 11:33 |
| tomreyn | probably not | 11:40 |
| tomreyn | this will tell whether these are installed (ii): dpkg -l python ttf-dejavu-core ttf-dejavu-extra | 11:41 |
| tomreyn | last time i checked there were two freeorion packages, one containing the engine, one containing assets / game data | 11:41 |
| tomreyn | either of these may have dependencies. | 11:42 |
| tomreyn | ttf-dejavu-* are just truetype fonts | 11:42 |
| Yoshi11 | they are apparently transitional dummy packages | 11:42 |
| tomreyn | and you most likely have a matching python already | 11:42 |
| Yoshi11 | ii ttf-dejavu-core 2.34-1 all transitional dummy package | 11:43 |
| Yoshi11 | yeah i do | 11:43 |
| tomreyn | but without the actual erro message it's just plain guesswork | 11:43 |
| Yoshi11 | although my python is amd64 | 11:43 |
| tomreyn | so unless you can provide that error message there's no way to help you | 11:44 |
| Yoshi11 | p, li { white-space: pre-wrap; } The package file does not exist | 11:59 |
| Yoshi11 | A nonexistent file has been selected for installation. Please select an existing .deb package file. | 11:59 |
| Yoshi11 | thats all i get | 11:59 |
| Yoshi11 | dpkg installs the freeorion-data part | 12:00 |
| Yoshi11 | but not the rest | 12:00 |
| tomreyn | then run: dpkg -i therest.deb | 12:08 |
| tomreyn | for whatever "therest" is | 12:09 |
| tomreyn | maybe there is a blank space in the package filename, making gdebi fail. | 12:10 |
| Yoshi11 | huh? | 12:18 |
| Yoshi11 | what do mean the rest.deb | 12:19 |
| *** GeofftheMedio has quit IRC | 12:28 | |
| tomreyn | you said <Yoshi11> dpkg installs the freeorion-data part but not the rest | 12:35 |
| tomreyn | i explained how to install a debian package named "therest.deb" | 12:35 |
| tomreyn | download the freeorion deb's to a directory of your choice ("<path>"), then start a terminal and use the 'cd <path>' command to change into said directory. once there, use "ls" to show the directory contents | 12:38 |
| tomreyn | then for every debian package "package.deb" do: sudo dpkg -i package.deb | 12:38 |
| tomreyn | if you still get that error copy and paste the entire temrinal session onto pastebin.com, submit it and copy and paste the resulting URL here. | 12:39 |
| Yoshi11 | tomreyn: but it does that when i do sudo dpkg -i freeorion-data_0.4.3+svn6822-1_all.deb and i only know that because i looked on synaptic | 12:39 |
| tomreyn | dunno, maybe synaptic handles the plus character as a control character for some reason. | 12:41 |
| tomreyn | unfortunately with GUI tools you are often limited to guessing what may be wrong | 12:42 |
| tomreyn | that's where a terminal can be quite convenient, since you have reproducible input and output and can thus tell quite reliably what is going on. | 12:42 |
| tomreyn | (at least most of the time) | 12:43 |
| Yoshi11 | yeah i resort to them when the gui buggers but i wasnt feeling motivated | 12:46 |
