bad focus/click behaviours
I am a (tv)twm user. when I snarf text into my mouse cut buffer, and then
attempt to inject it into the exmh input windows for comp/repl, the 'point'
is often an apparently random place in the text pane, not where I think I
have current flashing cursor.
I usually wipe out any of To:/Subject:/<random body> with the text. Its
often not even beginning of line denoted, ie its an unexplicable number
of char spaces in to the text where it inserts,
What am I doing wrong in either X, WM, shell, EXMH which is causing this?
cheers

Re: bad focus/click behaviours
exmh has a funky cut/paste model that is essentially all my fault.
The middle click sets the insert point. If you hate that, go to the
Bindings... Simple Edit preferences window and de-select
"Paste Sets Insert".

Unfortunately, the side effect of that solution is that it is no longer
possible to cut/paste within one sedit window, some intermediate client
always must be used (except in the rare case where you want to select
some text, and then paste it at the same place).
That's because the click that you have to (with this option) make to set
the insert point, also kills the selection (it ends up reverting to the
last selection made in some other window, or something like that).
So, the vast majority of people probably want that "Paste Sets Insert"
enabled - that one you can learn to live with, the other is much more
painful.

For a long time I have used an external editor with exmh (gvim).
I can cut'n'paste from exmh's message display window into spawned
gvim processes, but not into anything else.
This is VERY annoying.
(I have to look at the message with cat or less or whatever in a
terminal window if I want to do this - which is quite often. And
if the message is q-p encoded or a non-text/plain mime type, I end
up with all that raw garbage too).
Anyway to fix this?
(BTW: standard i386 redhat7.3)
Thanks.

Linking message [was: Re: Patch to complete a change...]

I would like to use [Link] a lot more, but is it rather
inconvenient.
I have set my right mouse button to [Move] a message to another
folder, which works fine.
However, [Link] also uses the same destination folder as [Move], and
so if I want to use [Link] I first have to mark the destination
folder with a message-move, undo the move, then I can use the
[Link]. Very inconvenient.
Is there a better way for me to set this up so that [Link] works
with one or two simple clicks?
(In essence: is there a way to mark a destination folder for a
message link or move without actually doing a move or link, I
couldn't see anything obvious).

1) Right click on the folder label in the folder list
2) In the main window, the "+" key puts you into a "change
folder" mode (the first time you use it after starting exmh),
hit a second + and you go to "set a target" mode. Type a few
characters of the folder name and hit space for autocomplete.

That (the way I have it configured, and it sounds as if the way Tony does
too) just does a move (rather than select as target without moving).
Of course, if you can manage to get no messages currently selected, then
it works fine.

This works, but is not nice if you're not using the keyboard, but just
the mouse.
Tony: I agree - a nice way to link in one click would be good, and should
be easy to add, though currently adding mouse bindings (something like
shift right click would be a good choice) is much harder than adding
key bindings.
But note there's no need to "undo" - the way I generally use link, if
the desired destination folder isn't the current selected target, is
to right click on the target, which selects it and moves the message,
(and because I have the "automatic move to the next message on move or
link option set) select the message again, and then "Link".
Exmh only permits one uncomitted action to be selected for a message at a
time, that is, one of delete, move, or link. Selecting any of those
implicitly undoes any previous choice from the three (so you cannot
achieve a "move" by doing a link, then delete, then commit, it needs to
be link, commit, delete, commit). (xmh was just the same there incidentally).
| How's spring shaping up "down under"?
No meaningful comment from me, I'm not there at the minute. But I'm told
that where I'm from it is cold, wet, and miserable, though has been better
during the day (sunny days, cold nights) for the past few. In any case,
all of that is a good enough reason to stay away...

That's odd. I cut & paste between all kinds of windows (exmh into

Everything else :) I can't even mark text in an exmh message window
and then paste it into a terminal window, the cut buffer seems to be
completely empty (and its previous contents are no longer there
either).

I should have finished this off.
3) Keep hitting space to loop thru all the folders that match
the characters you typed. Hit return to actually select the
folder shown in the message area.
I don't use this for navigating into nested folders as the only
thing I have nested is my archives. Someone else will have to
tell you how to do that if there are any tricks to it.

Ah. I had forgotten that was settable.
Preferences, Folder Display, "Action when Target Button
clicked..." set to "Select only" will change it. I seem to
recall that the button that is used as "Target button" is
configurable but I haven't had enough caffeine to recall where
that is.

Brent confessed recently that he had tried to subvert the X
model(s) of copy and paste. Not in those words... but that
was how I read it. ;)
I have a lot of trouble copying and pasting from or to exmh
across a VNC link (from things in the vncviewer to things not in
it and vice versa). As long as I stick to apps being "normally"
displayed on my X server I don't have much of a problem.
My recollection from my X programming days is that the X model,
like everything in X, is more complex than the human brain can
handle. It also is very different from the MS-Windows model.
And I get the feeling that Tk tries to "unify" those two models
and fails. Not sure what the exmh-specific contribution to the
confusion is, frankly.

(This is all guess work and may be bogus.)
Are you running Gnome 1.4? I had similar problems as did several
co-workers. Updating my Gnome components has fixed it for me and
others, although I can't say exactly which component did the
trick. Gnomecore or gtk would seem most likely, but it may have been
something else.
In any case, I have not seen the problem for quite a while, now.

According to some old documentation (man exmh-ref)
The mouse bindings for the folders labels are:
Left - Change to folder.
Middle - View nested folders.
Right - Refile current messages to the folder.
Shift-Right - Link current messages to the folder.
Shift-Middle - Drag a folder label to some drop target.
Control-Right - Clear the current target folder.
It should be possible to link using shift-right-click the same way you
can move using only right-click.

Re: bad focus/click behaviours
I've never understood the mouse buffer operation with exmh either. Here's the
behaviour I have. I have exmh and XEmacs windows up, and a terminal window. (I
also have gnome1.4 running and enlightenment as wm.) I select text in the exmh
window and while it is highlighted, I can paste into anything else. If I select
it and then click so the highlighting is off, then what I paste is not the
recently-selected text in exmh, but an old selection. If I select in XEmacs and
leave it highlighted, I can paste it into exmh sedit window; but if it is no
longer highlighted, what I paste is an old selection. I can live with this
behaviour except for one additional thing. If nothing is highlighted, then what
I paste into exmh is different from what I paste into other windows. To be more
specific, here's what gets pasted if nothing is highlighted:
Application What gets pasted
XEmacs whatever was last selected unless it was last selected in exmh
xterm same as XEmacs
AbiWord nothing
Nedit nothing
sedit Whatever was last highlighted in sedit and overwritten
The last needs some amplification. If I highlight something in sedit, then
obviously that's what gets pasted. If the highlighting is off, then what gets
pasted is NOT what was last highlighted in sedit, but what was last highlighted
and typed over (I have "Type Kills SEL" on.).
It seems that exmh and sedit are the oddballs here. Very often when I try to
paste something in sedit I end up muttering WTF??

Automated forwarding
Hi Folks,
I've been trying to set a button called which automatically
forwards mail using a '-form mycomps' without going through
the editor, but so far haven't got the right recipe.
I currently have in my .exmh-defaults:
*Mops.spam.text: Spam
*Mops.spam.command: Msg_Forward -form spamcomps -noedit -nowhatnowproc ; Msg
_Remove
I've also tried with "SeditSend {$draft $t 0}" after the forward command.
It should forward to a spam address (where filters get adjusted) and then
delete. It does so, but not without producing the edit window.
Any help appreciated.

Classic X copy-and-paste behavior is that you can only paste what is
currently highlighted. In fact, it is the act of highlighting a
selection that actually copies that selection into the buffer. X has
no "copy" command -- if you highlighted it, you just copied it.

If ab application has a "copy" command that you can choose to use
separately from the process of highlighting something, that command
is something the application authors wrote on their own. (And it it
likely that an application that wrote an internal "copy" command would
also have their own customized "paste" command, to make sure the two
work together.) Whether the internal (custom) select and paste
functions interoperate with the X server's global select and paste
functions will vary from program to program, because in each case you
are relying on the program's authors' efforts to blend separate systems.

I have one that uses dist to send stuff from my work mail to my
home mail. The binding looks like this:
set {bindings(key,HD_Dist_Silently -form distcomps.to-me)} <Meta-dollar>
The "HD_Dist_Silently" is a hacked up version of the proc that
does dist in exmh and is pasted in below. It's getting old and
probably should be "resynced" with the current code. But it
still works (on a relatively recent CVS copy of exmh)
It's also possible that there's an easier way but I hacked this
together quickly a year or more ago and when it worked I moved
on to other tasks.

It did for me, but I am not willing to say it is not a tcl/tk issue as
other apps seemed to work OK for cut and paste and Tk does its
clipboard stuff a bit differently than most toolkits. So I'm not
about to place blame. Just reporting my experience.
Also, I am not talking about installing Gnome2. Just updating the
many, many pieces of gnome to the current rev level.

MyIncErrors
I recently transfered my exmh setup to a new system, and now
all my email ends up in Mail/MyIncErrors folder. This is true for
inbox or presort options. I'm having difficulty finding this condition
in the documention. Suggestions?
Cheers,

(PGP problem) EXMH hangs during 'Query keyserver'
I guess the first question here should be does anyone have some
updates to the PGP code in EXMH that I should know about?
My current problem is that if I get a PGP signed message, I first
get a button that reads:
"Check the signature with GnuPG"
If I punch the button, and I dont have the signature on my keyring
then I get a message saying just that, and the message:
"Can't check signature: public key not found"
along with a button with the inscription
"Query keyserver"
If I punch the button then EXMH just hangs. Forever.
If instead of punching the button, I go out to the keyserver myself
and then try the message again, everything works, so it SEEMS that it
must be the code that goes out to the keyserver.
Anyone else with this problem?
This is EXMH v2.5 and tcl/tk 8.4a4

customising FTOC display for specific folders...
Is there any way to customise the folder table of contents for
specific folders?
I know it is possible to do per-folder customisation with components
and replcomps for message templates, but what about -form format
files for scan?
Cheers

"requires:" and relational operators
Halloechen!
I have
Requires: saxon >= 6.5.1
Conflicts: saxon >= 7
in my spec file. But apparently rpm ignores all version numbers. So,
Requires: saxon >= 6.5.1
# Conflicts: saxon >= 7
would install even with saxon-3.0.0, and
# Requires: saxon >= 6.5.1
Conflicts: saxon >= 7
wouldn't install even with saxon-6.5.2. What could be the reason
for this?
Tschoe,
Torsten.

Ahh, wonderful! Just tried out these and *finally* got sound working
with my Abit TH7II-RAID's integrated audio. I've been pulling hair
together with the (helpful) OpenSound people for quite some time now,
but we've failed to get sound to work, either with the drivers included
in kernel, or the commercial OSS.
Thanks a *lot* ! The RPMs seem to be fine, they worked for me out of
the box (on vanilla Valhalla w/latest errata).

It doesn't need to as Red Hat Linux already sets correct permissions on all
ALSA audio devices for locally logged in users (through the console.perms
file) and the modules.conf files takes care of loading the right modules on
demand. Also, aumix and the scripts that come with Red Hat Linux still work
for controlling the volume, so it's still saved and restored when the
computer is halted, even using ALSA.
I'm glad you got your card working with these! I'm now wondering if I won't
maybe buy an amplifier that supports Dolby Digial decoding (my current one
"only" does PRo Logic) since I've read that ALSA supports the S/PDIF
optical output of the sound chip of my Shuttle!

Ok, some more nits: alsa-xmms doesn't work if I don't have
alsa-lib-devel installed, but xmms dies on startup telling me:
Cannot load alsa library: libasound.so: cannot open shared object
file: No such file or directory
libasound.so is part of alsa-lib-devel... if I install it, the ALSA XMMS
output plugins works fine.
I can't install the xine stuff, because xine-libs needs libGLcore.so.1,
which I can't find anywhere (NVidia stuff? I have Radeon 7500...)

Ah! The mixer stuff was what made me look for an init script in the
first place, I didn't bother to check whether the existing stuff would
have worked with that. Will try that out, you can assume silence ==
success :)

Well, from what I've tried, both the main and the PCM (at least) volume
levels can be controlled either by "alsamixer" or the good old "aumix".

I guess/hope some other people from the list will try it out ;-)
Both problems you reported (libasound.so and wrong xine dependency) are now
fixed in the current packages.
Oh, it's maybe also worth pointing out : I've implemented at last sorting
by both last change date and alphabetically for my "build list" in the php
code : http://freshrpms.net/builds/
And yes, I accept patches/comments/suggestions about all those spec files!

Re: ALSA (almost) made easy
Thanks for this, I'm going to give them another try. One question: How
do I switch between digital out and analog out with ALSA? With
emu10k1-tools it's easy enough (emu-config -d for digital, emu-config -a
for analog) Is there a similar method with ALSA?

Re: ALSA (almost) made easy
Ok, I got ALSA installed and there is no static inbetween mp3s like
before which is great! My setup is digital 4.1 but sound is only coming
from front 2 speakers and subwoofer, rear speakers there is no sound.
Also alsamixer or aumix are unresponsive as well.

Maybe you could find more info or tips on the ALSA page for your card?
Also, you could try "alsactl store", editing /etc/asound.state" by hand
(for me it contains data similar to what I can control with "alsamixer")
then run "alsactl restore" and see if you're able to change what you want
that way.

Sure thing :)
I've added to the spec some flags to remove OSS and ISA-PNP support at
build time if one wishes to, so is's possible to do a
rpmbuild --recompile <rpm> --without oss --without isapnp
(I haven't included OSS in my 2.4.19, because VT82433 on my motherboard
is not supported :( yet, and I'm too lazy to recompile the kernel :)).
Also, having the kernel compiled by me, I have no kernel-source package
installed. I've added a flag "kernsrc", that also can be used
--without, to remove the dependency for kernel-source at build time. It
would be nice to check the correct kernel include files actually exist
(/lib/modules/`uname -r`/build/include/linux/*.h), though; however, I'm
a beginner in RPM building -- is it possible to BuildRequire for a file
not provided by a package at all? I've googled a bit, and found no way
to do that.
I was also considering adding some sort of flag for the --with-cards
option in alsa's ./configure, but don't know how to do that. Only found
out about --without from your first alsa-driver.spec, and existing RPM docs
don't help much.
Oh, and one more thing :). At first I've installed the first version of
alsa-driver for 2.4.18-10, although I don't have that kernel, to supply
the dependency for the rest of the alsa rpm's, and compiled the modules
from source. It created the /dev files and all.
Then wanted to make my own rpm for 2.4.19, so now I'm trying to rpmbuild
the alsa-kernel package. Removed all alsa rpms, and tried my spec:
rpmbuild --ba alsa-driver.spec.mine --without oss --without isapnp
--without kernsrc
But I get this:

Like I said, I'm a beginned with RPM building, so I don't understand
much of what's going on here. The 00macros file is from the MAKEDEV
rpm, and alsasound was supposed to be installed by alsa-driver, I think.
It is not in the filesystem, anyway.
I've looked in /var/tmp/alsa-driver-0.9.0rc3-root, they are there in
etc. For 00macros I think the part that does it is this line
in alsa-driver.spec:
cp -a %{_sysconfdir}/makedev.d/00macros /{buildroot}%{_sysconfdir}/makedev.d/
And alsasound is installed by %{BUILDIDR}/Makefile.
Oh, and I think I've forgot to mention, I'm running beta-null :).

Requiring a file that isn't part of an rpm is not possible, no, except
maybe by stopping the build process if it isn't found... but that's errr...
ugly!
And I really think that for people who installed a kernel from sources, the
easiest is to install the alsa kernel drivers from source too...

This would be a tricky one since to use the "--with <name>" feature of
rpmbuild, I think you'd need to add individual handling of each and every
card :-/

That's what the "alsa-driver" is there for, create all the base files
excluding the kernel drivers. What I would suggest for dependency reasons
it to install an "alsa-kernel" for the original kernel (you've kept it,
right? ;-)) and install ALSA modules from source for custom kernels built
from source.

Indeed : The rpm 4.1 snapshot in (null) has a few new features among which
having the build fail when files are present in the build root but not
listed in the %files section. I should remove them manually as part of the
build process... or maybe the new "%exclude /path/to/file" in the %files
section would do, but I don't know how older versions of rpm would handle
it. On my (null) build system, I've simply set the variable :
%_unpackaged_files_terminate_build 0

Yes, it is... But then alsa-driver requires alsa-kernel, and I don't quite
like --nodeps...

That's ok. I was only considering it for the sake of tweaking anyway, not
for some real-world need :).

Um... I keep 2.4.18-12.2 for emergency sitations (like I forget to include
keyboard support in kernel, dumb me), but alsa-kernel_2.4.18-10 does not
require kernel-2.4.18-10, so that's ok.

Indeed, my usual login is "dude" (and has been since long before "The Big
Lebowsky" came out ;-)), and it seems the some programs wrongly hard code
my home directory when being compiled :-(
For instance :
[dude@python dude]$ strings /usr/bin/gentoo | grep dude
/home/dude/
[dude@python dude]$ strings /usr/bin/xine | grep dude
/home/dude/redhat/tmp/xine-root/usr/share/locale
These should probably be considered bugs in the program's build process
(especially for xine, look at that!), I'll report them upstream if/when I
have some time.
Thanks for noticing this!

gkrellm 2 plugins?
Hi Matthias,
I think I could do help you out with new plugins package for gkrellm 2.
Would you prefer to keep it as it is now, or package every plugin
separately? The latter would be probably easier to maintain.

Re: thanks for the gamix source rpms! [ALSA stuff]
I wish I could answer your question but my laptop does not have the digital stuff
hooked up :( so I so not know about it. I have an excellent ESS Maestro3 which OSS
supports pretty lame so I was forced to learn about ALSA.
I have used these commands to explore ALSA and my chip:
arecord -l (list devices)
arecord -L (list PCM decices)
I get some output like this:
> arecord -l
card 0: MAESTRO3 [ESS Allegro PCI], device 0: Allegro [Allegro]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
> arecord -L
PCM list:
(SNIP - craploads of output)
I noticed that the output from this commands kind of maps to what the alsamixer or
gamix have.
For what it is worth, here is what I have in modules.conf for my sound stuff:

> alias char-major-116 snd

Hope that helps, good luck.

apt and a hybrid system
Back when I had regular RH7.3 there was nothing better than "apt-get upgrade". But
now I'm running (null) beta and I have these questions:
which version of "apt" can I use, the RH7.3 version or the "rawhide" version?
Is there a way to use apt to update (null) with the rpms available for (null)
through up2date, since I prefer apt to that?
If I can use apt, can I use it to get updates from these 3 different places:
1. the (null) up2date Redhat upgrades
2. the (null) files at Freshrpms.net
3. the regular RH7.3 files from freshrpms.net
Am I asking for too much simplicity in this complicated world?

You could build your own apt-repository. Just mirror the needed directories
(e.g. by using a wget cron job), symlink the needed rpms and recreate the
repository. It is already worth the trouble, if you have more than one
installation.
In any case in order to acces the mentioned places, somebody must keep such a
repository up to date, be it yourself or someone else.

Always nice to have one to put stuff that overrides RH things. Like if
you absolutely detest qt and some programs are rebuildable from sources
with different %configure options. You can get src.rpm, edit spec, bump
release numberwith your initials and another number and rebuild, insert
into apt and let loose... :)
Doesn't freshrpms have updates dir too? Maybe not quite as up to date as
up2date but still. I would never use up2date. There is another
repository at apt-rpm.tuxfamily.org IIRC. Not sure if that had The
updates.

Hi All Folks,
I have 'APT' installed and updated from 'freshmeat.net. But I failed using it
# apt-get install
/mnt/cdrom/Linux/CDBurner/cdrtools-cdrecord-1.11a23-1.i386.rpm
Processing File Dependencies... Done
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
E: Couldn't find package
/mnt/cdrom/Linux/CDBurner/cdrtools-cdrecord-1.11a23-1.i386.rpm
The file 'cdrtools-cdrecord-1.11a23-1.i386.rpm' is there
I performed another test copying the file
'cdrtools-cdrecord-1.11a23-1.i386.rpm' to /root/Download
# apt-get install /root/Download/cdrtools-cdrecord-1.11a23-1.i386.rpm
Processing File Dependencies... Done
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
E: Couldn't find package /root/Download/cdrtools-cdrecord-1.11a23-1.i386.rpm
Still failed. Finally I rpm 'cdrtools-cdrecord-1.11a23-1.i386.rpm' from the
CD and suceeded.
Kindly advise what mistake I have committed.
Thanks in advance.
Stephen Liu

This is not how apt is meant to be used, see Gordon's answer to your post
on the Valhalla list for details.

Pb with mplayer-0.90pre7
Hi,
this is my first problem with one of the freshrpms rpms ...
I just upgrade mplayer and now I get
$ mplayer
mplayer: error while loading shared libraries: libdvdnav.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I guess Matthias has forgotten libdvdnav dependency.

They told me I needed WIN95 or better
So I chose Linux!

Please help a newbie compile mplayer :-)
Hello,
I just installed redhat 7.2 and I think I have everything
working properly. Anyway I want to install mplayer because I heard it
can play quicktime movs. I apt-get source mplayer and dl'd it to
/usr/src.
I tried to just rpm --rebuild mplayer-20020106-fr1.src.rpm,
then I get ; mplayer-20020106-fr1.src.rpm: No such file or directory.
Any help or a link to some document would be appreciated, Thanks
-rob

Re: Please help a newbie compile mplayer :-)
Make sure you rebuild as root and you're in the directory that you
downloaded the file. Also it might complain of a few dependencies but
you can get these at freshrpms.net, except for gcc3, which you can find
on your Red Hat cd, Red Hat ftp, or rpmfind.net.
After you rebuild the source rpm it should install a binary rpm in
/usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386. With all dependencies met, install mplayer
with 'rpm -ivh mplayer-20020106-fr1.rpm' and you should be good to go.
One last thing, you will need the win32 codecs, I found them on google,
create a directory /usr/lib/win32 and place the codecs in there.
Good Luck!

I dl'd gcc3 and libgcc3, but I still get the same error message when I
try rpm --rebuild or recompile. I do this as root, I dl'd as root also.
thanks for the help, any more idea what's going on?

I've never installed source rpms with apt, but I suppose that if you get
file not found, it's because the source rpm was installed. To see if this
is the case, go to /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/ and if you see mplayer.spec,
you'll just need to do "rpm -bb mplayer.spec" to get a binary build in
/usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/

You can't get the file index from here either?

During the past few days, I've experienced connection problems with that
site from time to time, but for me right now it's working.

Very strange then : It works fine from here, even shift-reloading and with
no proxy whatsoever!

If you need another apt repository with Red Hat Linux 7.2 files, there are
a few others. See : http://freshrpms.net/apt/

Prob. w/ install/uninstall
hey i have a problem:
i have a rpms that i have installed that i want to uninstall, i do it
like so:
rpm -e [rpm package]
and it gives the error: package not installed, so i install it like
so:
rpm -i [rpm package]
and it gives the error: package already installed, so i force it to
install like so:
rpm -i --force [rpm package]
this installs it and then i try to uninstall it again and it still
gives me the same error: package not installed.
How can i get it to recognize that the package is indeed installed it,
and/or get it to unstall it?
Thanx in advance,

Its a little confusing but you install rpms like
rpm -ivh packagename-0.1.1.rpm
uninstalls must be done without the version info like
rpm -e packagename ie: rpm -e sendmail or
rpm -e sendmail-devel.
give that a go and it should work np.

It works for me (it should works with or without the "en" subdirectory).
Does it always give you the same error each time? Do you use an proxy

I'd say that the file apt downloaded is corrupted. Maybe trying "apt-get
clean" to remove all downloaded files first would solve the problem.

creating rpms with subdirs (install command)
Hi, I'm building an rpm for the resin webserver, and I basically want to
install the entire tarball under a diretory, but, the tarball includes
subdirectorys, in my spec i have:
install -s -m 755 %{name}-%{version}.%{release}/* \
$RPM_BUILD_ROOT/usr/local/resin
and I'm getting:
install: `resin-2.0.5/bin' is a directory
install: `resin-2.0.5/conf' is a directory
Is there a proper/nice way I should handle this?

Anyawy, I was asking Harri if he could point me a few advices on how to
build my own apt repositry for RH updates. There is a tutorial of somekind
at http://apt-rpm.tuxfamily.org/ which I'm following right now, but if
there is some other good advices, let me know!

Wow, Finnish seems even more complicated than German to me :-)
Could you send an English translation next time? I really didn't understand

I'll post my own repository story here anyway, hope no-one minds.
It may freely be commented on or used in another text.
I have a directory like this:
$ tree -d
.
|-- current7
| |-- SRPMS.current
| |-- SRPMS.gcc3
| `-- redhat
| |-- RPMS.current
| |-- RPMS.gcc3
| `-- base
|-- redhat-7_2
| |-- SRPMS.os
| `-- redhat
| |-- RPMS.os -> <link to RH network install image>
| `-- base
`-- testing
|-- SRPMS.testing
`-- redhat
|-- RPMS.testing
`-- base
27 directories
I throw updates to current7's rpms and my own stuff (with makefile :) to
testing.
After each new package,
nice genbasedir -s --progress --topdir=$TOPDIR/ \
testing/redhat testing
(for -s to work, you need to make release files, pinch someones for
exmple)
This stuff is found under apache. I put that url, my keys and all that
into apt conf on the machines on the network and apt away.
As for .fi mirrors, funet is very slow. I think I use tuxfamily for
updates but when I see errata I usually also put that to my own one so
rest of the machines have a shorter path to it.
Funet hosts a whole load of mirrors and projects (it used to be (is?)
the main mirror for Linux. It was one of the big pub ftp sites). If
there was a definite apt repository, maybe they might mirror that as
well. I doubt RH would be very keen on using apt and forking a
distribution doesn't seem like an easy option, someone should just start
a project.

Look at /etc/apt/apt.conf. I think ^kernel$ matches the kernel packages
(apart from those matched by the rest, smp, enterprise).
I think it won't do anything about the kernels. Come to think of it, the
abovementioned might have nothing to do with it.
I explicitly use apt-get install kernel and then from the list pick a
version and then install kernel#2.4.foo-bar.

Should. Haven't tried with dist-upgrade but I have put 7.2 netboot
mirror (ie, 7.2) into sources.list and run install step-by-step for IIRC
everything. Worked ok. I think there'll be a few .rpmnew files worth
checking such as, especially, passwd and group.
I think there was a group change. "lock" ?

It skips it. See the /etc/apt/apt.conf file for this.

I've done a dist-upgrade from 7.2 to a quite broken rawhide release... it
was a mess, still, it went much faster and smoother than if I had done it
"manually" with rpm -U or -F. I think that updates between stable releases
should still be done with the installer since IIRC, sometimes a few
twitches are done by anaconda to migrate configurations to new formats. It
should work though... I still prefer backuping config files and
reinstalling a clean system when I have the time.

In my apt.conf reads:
--<snip>--
RPM
{
// Leave list empty to disable
AllowedDupPkgs {"^kernel$"; "kernel-smp"; "kernel-enterprise"; };
HoldPkgs {"kernel-source"; "kernel-headers"; };
}
--</snip>--
If I understand this correctly, then only kernel-source and kernel-headers
are held from being installed, but kernel will be installed, right?
Maybe I should test this on some vanilla system...

It's not the rpm, it's the rpm-system with you. The cache seems to have

Apt problems
Two issues:
--<snip>--
Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies:
openssh: Depends: openssl (= 0.9.5a) but 0.9.6b-8 is installed
php-pgsql: Depends: postgresql but it is not installed
Depends: libpq.so.2
E: Unmet dependencies. Try using -f.
--</snip>--
1. I have the following openssl packages installed:
--<snip>--
openssl-perl-0.9.6b-8
openssl-0.9.6b-8
openssl095a-0.9.5a-11
openssl-devel-0.9.6b-8
--</snip>--
The openssl095a package should provide the openssl-0.9.5a compatibility
but apt doesn't think so?
2. I have postgresql installed from the source. So that's why I need
php-pgsql. Is there a way to tell apt about packages I don't want it to
complain about?

I believe that's just a matter of string parsing. If someone were to fix
the openssh package, removing the explicit Requires:, I believe the
automagic binary handler would figure the right libraries to use and
install. I haven't met an openssh like that and in worst case I've had 3
different openssl libraries (WTF can't they just bump a major version if
it's incompatible?!?).

I have a few such things (with jdk, imlib, kernel DRI version..
something) and Ive just made dummy packages (with verbose warning
attached ;) that explicitly provide those capabilities. (or claim to,
that is).

Strange... all my openssh packages don't explicitly requires a version of
openssl. What version of openssh do you have? Is it an official Red Hat
package? I suppose it isn't, and using Red Hat's rpms will solve your
problem.
What you need to know for openssl is :
0.9.5b is libcrypto.so.0 and libssl.so.0
0.9.6 is libcrypto.so.1 and libssl.so.1
0.9.6b is libcrypto.so.2 and libssl.so.2
Now in all Red Hat packages I've seen so far, the only dependency is on
those files and not on "openssl = version".

apt-get http fails
--=-eAUUkMeF/tAqB1Bi49Ip
Content-Type: text/plain
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable
I installed apt-get yesterday and liked it, for a couple hours anyway.=20
Late last night I started to get errors like:
--( root@theshadows )-- apt-get update
E: Method http has died unexpectedly!
E: Tried to dequeue a fetching object
E: Tried to dequeue a fetching object
E: Tried to dequeue a fetching object
E: Tried to dequeue a fetching object
E: Tried to dequeue a fetching object
E: Tried to dequeue a fetching object
E: Tried to dequeue a fetching object
(...)
i get the same errors (two like the first line instead of one) with
apt-get update.
I was wondering why this would happen.
I would appreciate any help you all can give me.
Thanks.

How do I make such packages?

openssh-3.0.2p1-1
I think that is directly from openssh site. It's from the RH 6.2 that I
upgraded to 7.2 (6.2 doesn't ship with openssh...).
I probably should downgrade to the versoin RH provides except I can't do
that as I don't have physical access to that box and downgrading ssh
packages over ssh doesn't sound like a bright idea...

That explains...

Well, with 7.0, I've seen a few problems with doing that, but as of 7.2
it's really wonderful! Ever tried of completely uninstalling all openssh
related packages while being connected through ssh? Well, it works!!!! Of
course, if the connection cuts at that moment, you're stuck, but a simple
upgrade with official Red Hat packages also works like a charm :-)

Hm. One could do this with rpm's --justdb switch too, without having to
make a dummy package, right?
I was wondering that this is a bit dangerous if there is a update for my
software, as the dummy package might get updated with it overwriting the
installation I've done from source... Not good.
Is there really no "--nodeps" kind of switch in apt-get?

Re: About apt, kernel updates and dist-upgrade
About apt.conf there are these lines:
--<snip>--
RPM
{
// Leave list empty to disable
AllowedDupPkgs {"^kernel$"; "kernel-smp"; "kernel-enterprise"; };
HoldPkgs {"kernel-source"; "kernel-headers"; };
}
--</snip>--
How do I tell apt hold all kernel packages? Can I use syntax like
"kernel*"; ?
And I don't quite understand what the part "^kernel$"; means?

You could read about regular expressions.
^kernel$ matches "kernel" and nothimg more.
Kerne, kernel-smp and kernel-enterprise are the kernel packages you
might be running in a RH system. Packages like kernel-headers,
kernel-BOOT and kernel-doc aren't matched. If it just said "kernel", it
would match *all* those packages.

Thanks for the great work Mathias but I would like to point out that this
list is fastly become the apt-rpm-list instead of the rpm-list. The
discussion concerning apt is overwhelming. Maybe another list is in order
for those having trouble with apt-rpm. apt-rpm-hotline@freshrpms.net ? :)
Though I think apt-rpm is a great tool, I don't use it and would like to
get back to talk of new packages and rpm building techniques.

Hmmm, know what? On http://lists.freshrpms.net/ the apt-list has been up
for a while now ;-) There is almost no traffic though, since I wanted to
keep that list for apt-rpm on the server side (mirrors, building
repositories etc.), but hey, it could be a good place for general apt-rpm
questions ;-)
