Chionic-1.0.1

Hello,

I'm on etch, I've finally managed to  make a deb-pakage of this sampler 
that I wanted to try, though it uses scons for building, i haven't been 
able to build it.

I must confess I've used alien to convert a rpm package (shame !), but 
it works and seems stable.

It'd be interresting to have it in the stable branch, so If you are 
interested , i can send it to you.

Cheers

Marc

64studio-users@... is probably a better place to ask if you 
want help from other users. This list is more useful for discussing 
software fixes and solutions with other developers and testers. 
http://64studio.com/forum/ is also worth checking out.

Also; just go ahead and ask your question. The more concise and 
straightforward your question is, the better we can answer it. People 
are generally very helpful and friendly round here, so don't be afraid 
to be direct and to the point. :-)

cheers,

Upgrade and Kept Back Packages

Hi All,

I did an apt-get update and apt-get upgrade tonight and got the message:

The following packages have been kept back:
   aeolus ardour blender

I don't use synaptic, so I don't think that's the problem. (There is 
evidently a bug if you switch between synaptic and apt, sorry I can't 
remember the details that my friend patiently explained to me.)

Is there something wrong with my sources.list.d/64studio.list file?

I'm trying to keep a straight 64 Studio "testing" on my machine, the 
only other things I've brought in were the codecs from 
debian-multimedia, and Apache, MySQL and a few Perl modules from Etch.

Btw, if I'm getting the codecs from debian-multimedia, don't I need to 
include that line when I upgrade? The packages from etch will be covered 
by the security updates, so I comment the regular etch line out.

As an aside, I'm thinking that for those of use who are used to using 
apt instead of synaptic, it might be helpful to put up a page explaining 
the differences with Debian, which just uses /etc/apt/sources.list 
instead of the other files.

$ cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/64studio.list
# Stable 64 Studio repository
#deb http://apt.64studio.com/64studio/stable 64studio main

update 2 upgrade lenny i386

Hi all,

http://lists.64studio.com/pipermail/64studio-devel/2008-May/005693.html

1: synaptic
This is with a clean install...2.1rc..upgraded to 64studio testing.
If you upgrade 2.1rc, you will get a clean upgrade, wine will need 
re-upgrade on completion.
You may not have a clean install? and this can make a big difference.
Up to the release below the etch/builds upgraded the same as the 2.1rc.
I have followed the method half a dozen times now, The first try gave 
problems,
The rest were fine, You have to follow Free's instruction to the letter.
If you dont remove non-free sources / 3rd party repositories
The upgrade gets more difficult.

2: synaptic
This release is the move back to Audacity 1.3.3-1
(64studio_master_i386.iso 28-May-2008 14:46 798M)
I don't know why but the upgrade changed with this etch/build.
(libpam0g) gave errors. It stops synaptic, and you can't continue.
I closed synaptic, opened a terminal and ran
#apt-get -f install
and then restarted synaptic to complete the upgrade. which it did.

Sources used for upgrade:

deb http://apt.64studio.com/64studio/stable/ 64studio main
deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ etch main
deb http://apt.64studio.com/64studio/testing/ 64studio main

I am using "i386".
The 64studio here, the one I keep at 64studio testing,
is keeping these back.
blender flac gigedit
if I type in a terminal
# dpkg -l | grep "ardour"
ardour = 2.4.1-1~etch1
are you on the same version?
even if I enable 64studio backports, I have no ardour on hold.

Thank you for this info, I am going to google to find out more.
The upgrade to lenny I did this morning (on a testing disk)
was much better when I didn't touch synaptic.
I am going to have to find out about this bug

If you stay with synaptic OR apt the upgrade is fine.
My first impression confirms the apt/synaptic bug.
The Image change was not relevant to the upgrade problems I saw with the 
first synaptic upgrade.
Mixing synaptic and apt was the problem.

Thanks for the report, I didn't notice this bug when I performed my
tests. It can be fixed in the testing branch, but unfortunately the
ISO images of the final 2.0 have already been built.. I'm not sure
what to do.

Ciao!

Hi Free,

> I'm not sure

This may affect users going from 2.0 to 2.1 by apt. I need to test for 
this and report back. If it does turn out to be a problem, I hope we can 
fix it in the stable branch and make a 2.1.1 image.

My install tests of the 'final' 2.1 images went perfectly, by the way. 
The only bugs are the known bugs :-)

Cheers!

Daniel

I forgot to say, I'm using the 64 bit version of 64 Studio 2.1. I
installed 2.0 and then upgraded to 2.1.

$sudo dpkg -l | grep "ardour"

2.0.3-2~bpo.1

Thinking twice the best thing would be to tell users to set our lenny
backports repository too before upgrading:

deb http://apt.64studio.com/backports lenny-backports main

when doing the upgrade. I've already uploaded a fixed 64studio-themes
package there, and we will need it anyway to offer major upgrades like
a new kernel.

Please let me know if this fixes the problem for you.

Ciao!
