Re: libc6 problem after apt-get
I dit an apt-get remove and apt-get install of libc6, still not working. the following thing worked for me (tk told me the whole thing on #debian): --- tk I downgraded the libc in the following order: libdb2_2.4.14-2.7.7.1.c.deb, libc6*.deb locales_2.1.3-13_i386.deb, all the files need to be downloaded locally. If apt/dpkg complains about ldconfig, you need to download ldso_1.9.11-9.deb, do dpkg -x ldso*.deb foo cp foo/sbin/ldconfig.new /sbin/ and retry --- Install the downloaded .deb files with dpkg -i you should be able to find most of files on ftp://security.debian.org/debian-security/dists/potato/updates/main/ otherwise search in potato. hope this helps! cya Joel
horde: install problem
hi, if i try to install the horde debian package (horde 2:1.2.0-12) for debian unstable i get the following warning: --- Working, please wait...Checking non-HORDE config files WARNING You stated your using PostgreSQL as a database and that it is local yet the install program cannot seem to find the config files for it. The install program will NOT confiugre your database for use with HORDE and thus will not function properly until you get this fixed. Please press ENTER --- press ENTER doesn't work. I have to end with ctrl+c why do I get this warning? I don't have a PostgreSQL database - I have a MySQL DB. Or do I have configured it somewhere? thanks for an answer... cya Joel

apt-get on linux / download on NT
I want to do the following thing: I have a debian (slink) pc at home. Sometimes I want to update some packages or even the whole system - f.e. to a later debian dist. the problem is that I don't have a static connection to the internet (or sth like that) at home. My connection isn't fast enough if i want to upgrade to a later debain-dist... (- it would cost a lot of money). the best solution would be if I could generate a list of the needed packages for upgrade on my linux pc at home (f.e. with apt-get). then I want to take this list to a NT workstation at firm (where we have a static internet connection) and download there the needed debian packages (automaticly with help of the generated list on my pc). any ideas how I can do that? regards Joel Gautschi aka J-freak / Carrots http://www.game-over.ch/
