0810 beta2 install problem - orbiter, avwizard and xine-player broken packages

[ddyck]

I installed the latest beta2 (new-install-latest.tar.gz from 22-Jan-2010) via the internet as per the instructions on the wiki but am running into a problem with the pluto-orbiter package.

Running ./mce-install.sh gives the message that pluto-orbiter failed due to missing dependencies (missing pluto-avwizard) and I have to Ctrl-C to get out of it. I also get the same thing when running /usr/pluto/bin/Diskless_CreateTBZ.sh.

I've tried to manually install pluto-avwizard, but it depends on pluto-xine-player which I also cannot install manually as I get the message "package pluto-xine-player has no installation candidate".  I've verified that

Code Select Expand

deb http://www.avenard.org/files/ubuntu-repos/ intrepid release

is in /etc/apt/sources.list as per the thread at http://forum.linuxmce.org/index.php?topic=9251.0 but it still won't work.

I've also confirmed my network settings as per http://forum.linuxmce.org/index.php?topic=9249.30, but that hasn't helped either.

I have the feeling something is missing in /etc/apt/sources.list, or it's not properly connecting to one of the sources listed.  Does anyone know what the source is for pluto-xine-player?  I've searched the forums, the wiki and google but can't seem to find anything. Any suggestions are appreciated as I'd love to get this going.

Thanks.

Correct me if I am wrong but I THINK it is at download.linuxmce.org.


Have you tried

Code Select Expand

sudo apt-get install --fix-missing
or

Code Select Expand

sudo dpkg --configure -a
?

If you can get into desktop/linuxmce admin page... I recommend looking at your network/settings and make sure that your nics arent swapped.

This has to be something recent with the build.  I was trying to build a new machine yesterday and today with the same results.  I did not have the same issue when I installed 810 just a week ago however (same machine).

I've included a screen show of the error: the pluto orbiter package is broken.

[patmankn]

Same here.
Just did a new install from repo and mce-install script stops at the pluto-orbiter ;O(
Hope its just a quick fix .

I'm glad to see I'm not the only one with this problem.

Those didn't seem to do anything, but I have made a bit of progress and can now at least access the web admin page.

/etc/network/interfaces listed my internal network card as eth0:1 instead of eth1 (missed that when I was first looking at it) so I changed that.

As per the wiki http://wiki.linuxmce.com/index.php/Single_to_Double_NIC my /etc/default/dhcp3-server contained my external network

Code Select Expand

"INTERFACES=eth0"instead of my internal network

Code Select Expand

"INTERFACES=eth1"

After rebooting I now have a black screen with a cursor, and several messages appear indicating that avwizard and orbiter was installed, but avwizard still doesn't start (at least I don't think it does). I've read some of the other 'black screen' posts on the forums, but haven't heard any of the beeps, and F7 doesn't do anything. My problem seems very similar to http://forum.linuxmce.org/index.php?topic=9152.msg62799#msg62799.

Anyway, I'm going play with the webadmin and see if I can get a little further with this. I'll post an update if I make any progress.

The AVWizard wiki lists how to run the AVWizard from the command line as

Code Select Expand

/usr/pluto/bin/AVWizard_Run.sh

Unfortunately AVWizard_Run.sh doesn't exist on my install, so I'm guessing it's just broken and not going to work no matter what I do in the webadmin. I've already tried reinstalling, so I'm not sure if it's worth another try or not.

Same here, got it today, installing from the net, using the latest installer script.

The following message is being displayed for the last 6 hours........

Any way to fix it?

I have the same issue: broken dependency for pluto-orbiter and pluto-avwizard leading to a grey screen with mouse cursor.

doing apt-get update, I have some failures:

Browsing http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/ there is no universe folder but a dists/intrepid/universe.
I guess I have to correct the corresponding lines in /etc/apt/sources.conf, but how...


* Update:
First I modified

Code Select Expand

deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ universe  main non-free contrib
to become

Code Select Expand

deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ intrepid universe  main non-free contrib
but then I got

Code Select Expand


W: Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/intrepid/Release  Unable to find expected entry  non-free/binary-i386/Packages in Meta-index file (malformed Release file?)


so in the end I commented the line out completely, as the previous line

Code Select Expand

deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ intrepid  main universe multiverse
covers main universe multiverse, but non-free and contrib don't seem to be available on that server

Now apt-get update works fine, but pluto-avwizard still won't install:

[caiman]

after changing my mirror from be.archive.ubuntu.com to nl.archive.ubuntu.com, the apt-get update process works fine and the package pluto-avwizard can be installed without problems

[patmankn]

OK,
after the repos was fixed, i tried to re-run the mce-install.sh script. It ran fine,
but in the end i had to re-install from the very beginning, as the setup-wizard didn't show up,
so my setup was fubar.
Nevermind... as long as the missing package will be there again ;O)

Doing some searching, I found that this repository does not contain pluto-xine-player

Code Select Expand

deb.linuxmce.org/ubuntu intrepid beta2
which was the root of my problems, but

Code Select Expand

deb.linuxmce.org/ubuntu intrepid release
does. I added it to /etc/apt/sources.list, updated and the install completed, but I think I messed up other things in the process of getting there.

I'm going to do a complete reinstall today and see if I can get it to go.  I'll post my exact steps in a few hours if I get this to work.

[ddyck]

Just checked the repository for beta2 and pluto-xine-player has been added as of today (31-Jan-2010 16:21). I'm assuming it will now work without adding the repo I mentioned in my previous post. I'm currently reinstalling.

Hya,
thx! worked after changing the mirror.
Went til the end, with one error:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  pluto-asterisk: Depends: pluto-voicemail-monitor but it is not going to be installed
                  PreDepends: asterisk-pluto but it is not going to be installed

Any idea why? Both are in http://download.linuxmce.org/ubuntu/dists/intrepid/beta2/binary-i386/

Best regards.

[caiman]

it looks like there is a chain of dependencies of pluto-asterisk to zaptel-modules.
zaptel-modules is on the repository, but not in the Packages files.

However, a manual install gives me:
