Okay, after reading aptitude help a while, I tryed installing pd with pd-extended already installed on Linux. It says extended will be removed due to 1 conflict. When I expand the view it says its due to the unresolved dependency GEM.
It doesn't make much sense in my head, if I do not need GEM I shouldn't be forced to install it. I can try installing GEM to see if then pd will not uninstall pd-extended. if my opinion can count for anything, it would be nice if we could clear out the installation of packages to a more transparent/independent way, as talked in this list. best regards, Pedro On Thu, May 20, 2010 at 4:40 PM, Pedro Lopes <[email protected]> wrote: > I never got use to aptitude, but I think "now's the time"... :) > > > On Thu, May 20, 2010 at 1:39 PM, IOhannes m zmoelnig <[email protected]>wrote: > >> On 2010-05-20 14:30, Pedro Lopes wrote: >> > Im having a similar problem in my netbook, I have pd-extended installed >> from >> > a deb package and if I try: >> > >> > pe...@bird-nb:~$ sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends puredata >> >> then i would recommend everybody to use aptitude and check why the >> package manager wants to uninstall pd-extended. >> and then resolve the issues. >> >> everything else is guesswork, and i feel i have already spent too much >> time guessing. >> >> >> >> > The following packages will be REMOVED: >> > pd-extended >> > The following NEW packages will be installed: >> > puredata >> > 0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 1 to remove and 0 not upgraded. >> >> and one more guess: maybe your pd-extended was already marked for >> removal before that. >> >> fghmsdf >> IOhannes >> >> > > > -- > Pedro Lopes > contacto: [email protected] > website: http://web.ist.utl.pt/Pedro.Lopes > -- Pedro Lopes contacto: [email protected] website: http://web.ist.utl.pt/Pedro.Lopes
