hi antonios!

i followed the install instructions in this page
http://code.goto10.org/projects/puredyne/wiki/DocInstallSystem
ok
all went fine but at some point I must have done something wrong because i get an error. Aptitude complains that puredyne package is broken. That there are broken dependencies, the package that causes the problem is puredyne-settings. It says it is not available for installation, it is not installable (??)

the problem I think is puredyne-settings it is supposed to make installing easier by installing various little tweeks in /etc config files. It seems to be causing problems though because it is touching files that belong to other debs.

What happens if you remove/not_install puredyne-settings?

i dont actually have it installed. i tried few times to aptitude remove puredyne-settings but then it keeps complaining because puredyne package depends on puredyne-settings and it breaks. I just tried again and it says something like "the following packages are broken : puredyne .... puredyne dependency : puredyne-settings but it is not available for installing" then it offers me to remove the puredyne package

As it is now, most stuff works fine i have all the apps and i can use them, but if i try to boot with the rt kernel it never boots. stays in the console screen after the grub selection, i guess maybe it is not properly configured.

Dont use it and take the repository settings from there (as you did) :

http://code.goto10.org/projects/puredyne/wiki/AptSettings

ok, i already did this at the installation time.

the files that are included in the puredyne-settings package can be found in the svn and copied by hand from here:

https://code.goto10.org/projects/puredyne/browser/live/config/chroot_local-includes/etc

so you mean i should check the files in this directory and compare them to my local files? for eg check this
https://code.goto10.org/projects/puredyne/browser/live/config/chroot_local-includes/etc/sysctl.conf
and tweak my /etc/sysctl.conf to match those settings.

hope this helps, let me know how it goes

ok, thanks.

So at this point aptitude offers me to remove puredyne package. I say no to this and then it wants to reconfigure puredyne-settings again. Here it also fails saying there is an error code 1 while processing
/var/cache/apt/archives/puredyne-settings_20081120_i386.deb

mmm... i am tempted to remove puredyne and try to install first puredyne-settings and then puredyne again but i thought i should ask the list before.

when i installed the system i entered manually the apt sources settings because when i tried to manually wget and dpkg install puredyne-settings_20081120_i386.deb there was some error... i did not pay much attention to it, did not sound like anything important, something to do with trying to rewrite gmd.conf. After that I manually entered the settings, all went fine after that and so far in the system after few reboots. Also i can run PD and supercollider so i am not sure what is actually wrong.

Ah!, this directory is empty /etc/skel/ so i guess definitely the puredyne-settings deb is not installed.

any ideas?
