Dear all, I try to install the latest R version using checkinstall (v. 1.6.2) on Ubuntu 11.10. After solving all the dependencies (installed using apt-get build-dep r-base) checkinstall fails to build and install R package with the following error (the same commands build and install R-2.13.2 on the same machine without any problem): wget

I installed checkinstall 1.6.2 on CentOS 5.4 VM (VMWare Server on WinXP). After getting the dependencies installed it compiled with no errors. But when I run it in its own source directory, I keep getting an error that I can't track down. The message is: install: cannot change ownership of '/usr/local/lib/installwatch.so': No such file or directory. But not only does the file

I am reviewing some work that I did in June and forgot to take notes at the time. For some reason I have a nagging suspicion that for this job I used a package builder other than checkinstall but for the life of me I cannot recall the name. Now, the case may be that I actually did use checkinstall in which case not remembering the name of non-extant software is expected. On the other hand I

I cannot seem to find a checkinstall rpm package for CentOS-6 or one for x86_64 more recent than CentOS4. When I try to build it locally from the most recent source I can find, c.2006, I get build errors having to do with size constants either missing or improperly defined. Does anyone have a source for an rpm of this package that runs on CentOS-6_x86_64 or can recommend a replacement for it?

Hi list, I can install the default ppp-2.4.4-2, but when I try to install an rpm I built from Sangoma's ppp-2.4.4.5 (using checkinstall-1.6.1) I get this error: # rpm -ivh ppp.2.4.4.5-1.eai.i386.rpm error: Failed dependencies: ppp < 2.4.3-3 conflicts with kernel-2.6.18-162.2.1.el5.i686 Isn't 2.4.4.5 > 2.4.3-3 ??? trying this: yum localinstall ppp.2.4.4.5-1.eai.i386.rpm

Hi. Ive used git for some time to download an update wine sources. However, Ive notices a couple of things i dont understand quite much. My general procedure to download sources and compile is this: git clone git://source.winehq.org/git/wine.git ~/wine-git cd ~/wine-git ./configure --prefix=/usr make sudo checkinstall --fstrans=no --pkgversion=1.1.12 Here I've noticed that I have to

How would one go about compiling Wine (1.1.0-253 git) with gcc 4.1.3? I'll post my results once I know how to go about that.

After installing wine from the source, I find out that the directory is consuming some significant amount of space, so I decided to remove it. But then I remembered that since I installed from source, I mighty need the source directory in the future, in case I decide to uninstall wine. After checking the documentation, I saw that was true. So I wonder: Can I remove the directory and in the future,

Last year, Dirk E was asking about customizing options to for packages when using R CMD INSTALL http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/e4/devel/08/06/1980.html Has there been more on that question lately? I also wonder what this means in the "Building Packages" section of the R-Extensions manual: "R CMD build can also build pre-compiled version of packages for binary distributions,

I am trying to install Ruby-1.8.7p302 on a CentOS-5.5 server in preparation for a Rails-3 application deployment. I have downloaded the source from Rubyforge.org, unpacked it, and ran ./config and make. Everything built without error. I then ran checkinstall to create an rpm package. That too completed without error. However, when I try to install the resulting package using: yum localinstall

Two quick and simple questions; I want to install the "WinPower" software for my new UPS. On their web site, they have a tar.gz file available for download. I know the reasons for staying with RPM, if at all possible. I''ve Googled and Yahood for ""WinPower"+RPM+Linux and get hits, but no obvious RPM. I tried "yum install winpower" and the response was

Howdy, I tend to try out many open source apps/packages - games, editors to media tools. I have a bad habit of downloading and extracting source in the /var/tmp directory and then doing configure-make-install process. I am not sure of best practice (good practices) to be followed when installing any software. For example how and where to keep the src. Any comments and/or resources would be really

Hey guys, I'm a new Ubuntu convert (installed through Wubi, and am blown away!) I'd love to get wine working so I play games etc, but I've got a lot of learning to do when it comes to installing and getting things working. So, I want to use the 1.0-rc1 version of wine, but CoD4 requires the 3dmark.diff patch. This is what I think I need to be doing: with the 3dmark.diff file

Hi Everyone. Asterisk is one of those applications that need to be built from cvs on a regular basis to keep up with the changes. I have always used package management tools like apt. How does everyone manage their Asterisk servers? Geoff

Hi list, Does anybody have some notes/blog post/etc about building dovecot deb packages?

Hi: I've successfully installed Xapian under Ubuntu Linux using APT but when I tried it on an older Debian machine I got a broken package error: ------------------------------------------ # apt-get install libxapian8 Reading Package Lists...

The silence has been deafening in respect of my latest cri de coeur about trying to install R via "sudo apt-get r-base". I have been thrashing around on my own, and getting nowhere. What I have tried is removing all traces of the "old" (installed from source) R from the system. I did "whereis R" and then moved all of the relevant directories that appeared, into
