Is raspbian compatible with regular debian? I don't know. All our packages are built for regular debian. > then found linuxcnc deb at > http://linuxcnc.org/jessie/2.7uspace/binary-armhf/linuxcnc-uspace_2.1.14_armhf.deb > thats a real easter egg! The direct link is: http://linuxcnc.org/dists/jessie/2.7-uspace/binary-armhf/linuxcnc-uspace_2.7.14_armhf.deb But the preferred way to get it is by adding an apt line, like the one you added below. > I was worried about the deps needed by the install, so > in synaptic, i added repo deb http://linuxcnc.org/ jessie base If you use the following apt line instead, you can install and upgrade linuxcnc via apt: deb http://linuxcnc.org/ jessie base 2.7-uspace (That's like your apt line above, plus "2.7-uspace" at the end to pick up LinuxCNC itself.) > then exited synaptic > then ran sudo apt-get update and got > > "Failed to fetch htt://linuxcnc.org/dists/jessie/Release > unable to find expected 'base/binary-armhf/Packages' > in Release file ( wrong source.list or malformed file )" Oops, that's a bug in our debian archive! I just attempted to fix it, but i don't have an armhf machine handy. Can you try updating your apt source to the one I said above, then run 'apt-get update' and let me kow if it works? -- Sebastian Kuzminsky ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
