That got me earlier in week when I was using Wheezy. I found I couldn't install both wine and Steam together because of libc6.

Good call on a new thread, double Z. I'm busier than I want to be, but still looking forward to this. It'll be interesting to see who's still at it with Testing.

I'm assuming this will affect Chrome Stable, too.

Are you guys pointing to any mint repos?

Mine:

Code: Select all

# deb http://packages.linuxmint.com/ debian main upstream import backport 
deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ testing main contrib non-free
deb-src http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ testing main contrib non-free
deb http://security.debian.org jessie/updates main contrib non-free
deb-src http://security.debian.org jessie/updates main contrib non-free
deb http://www.deb-multimedia.org testing main non-free
#deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ testing-proposed-updates main contrib non-free
#deb-src http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ testing-proposed-updates main contrib non-free
Edit 1 for Jessie, and leaving the mint repo remarked out due to XFCE. This is what Craigevil's Testing repo will probably look like when he modifies it for Wheezy going Stable, and Jessie going Testing.

Edit 2 adding the Debian Testing Multimedia repo

Code: Select all

deb http://www.deb-multimedia.org testing main non-free
Edit 3 for Craigevil's Debian Sources List Update: I was a bit surprised that Craigevil did not update his Debian Sources list, so I did a search for him, and this is what I found:

Going off-grid permanently. Fight the oppressors, fight for your rights. So long and thanks. May God be with you all. The Last Days are here and Jesus will be coming soon.(Yes I know a big no-no,sorry) Take care.

It has been nice knowing everyone here.
I'm guessing Craig voted for Ron Paul in the Republican Primary.

Anywho, it looks like we won't be getting an updated Craigevil sources list anytime soon.

Re: Upgrade Warnings: LMDE tracking TESTING

Post by zerozero »

just a few notes here:

- the steam issue with libc6 is well known and documented; there's a few scripts to help its installation (without the need to pull libc6 from experimental at the moment) and some debian-derivatives have the issue also "workarounded"

- this issue with chrome is odd because it means that newest versions of chrome won't be able to run in wheezy and in the ubuntu (and derivatives) LTS'

Well, wheezy's been released. Packages have started migrating again to Testing. One of these is muffin/nemo version 1.7.x. Cinnamon hasn't migrated because it is only 9 days old: http://packages.qa.debian.org/c/cinnamon.html. So, depending on your apt pinning, you may be upgraded to Debian's Cinnamon once it migrates.

Hi

Things have been frozen so much so long, I'll wish to try it. Could you please post your current list of repositories?

I am using LMDE 64 bits.

I lost "less" - man-db conflicts with it (and I rather keep man-db). The required version of less (456) is in unstable, so I assume it be migrated soon.

It also removed lib32v4l-0 for me as it has properly been given multi-arch support. Check for libv4l-0:i386, it should install automatically.

razorqt migrated to testing and if you, like me have an old version installed (self- compiled) you will probably see a few file conflicts and the upgrade will fail

It's slow going on the roll right now. 1971 packages are trying to enter testing

The flood, if not a trickle, should be fun. Last cycle, it seemed like every package poured in 48 hours after squeeze went stable. Or maybe I'm having a premature senior moment.

I saw your post a bit late. Thanks very much for your reply. I think I am going to take the plunge, after carefully saving my current LMDE, of course. It looks as if I will be jumping in a barrel just two kilometers before the Niagara Falls... :lol:

I got libc6 2.17 out of experimental for the new mdm a while back when I first installed lmde, on the wife's I installed the same but had to install the wine version through experimental also to go with the same lib or there was issues, both work fine.
I checked and it's under sid/libs (unstable) now but it works great on my end for these two and I use chrome as well as a back up.

Latest kernel caused me some grief with nvidia driver. I could not make the debian driver have full glx support for both 64bit and i386 and NVIDIA's installer refuses to take gcc-4.7 as compiler.
I had to boot into old kernel and re-install nvidia.

Anyone else run nvidia and requires both 64bit and i386 support?

Hi guys, finally got some issues tracking testing :)
So after the last update if I try to start any session from MDM (either Cinnamon, Cinnamon 2D, Classic Gnome) I only get a black screen with a mouse pointer which works.
If I switch to a console (Ctrl+Alt+F1), log in and run startx, Cinnamon starts just fine. I have looked in in /var/log/syslog and no errors there.

In ~/.xsession-errors I get this but I can't figure it out:

Code: Select all

Window manager warning: Log level 16: /tmp/buildd/glib2.0-2.36.1/./gobject/gsignal.c:2593: instance `0x7f1a7042cfc0' has no handler with id `26506'
