pre-upgrade issues: trying to install Network Manager 1.0.4

Post by peyrol »

Following the instructions on the page http://community.linuxmint.com/tutorial/view/2013 I got an error message on apt dist-upgrade:

Code: Select all

david@achernar:~$ apt dist-upgrade
[sudo] password for david: 
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 modemmanager : Breaks: network-manager (< 0.9.8.2-1) but 0.9.8.0-5 is to be installed
 ppp : Breaks: network-manager (< 0.9.8.8-7~) but 0.9.8.0-5 is to be installed
E: Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages.
So I downloaded NetworkManager-1.0.4.tar.xz and ran ./config which complained that it could not find dbus-glib-1:

configure: error: Package requirements (dbus-1 >= 1.1 dbus-glib-1 >= 0.94) were not met:

No package 'dbus-glib-1' found

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables DBUS_CFLAGS
and DBUS_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.
First of all, is it wise of me to try to install the latest Network Manager in this fashion?

Secondly, I see the package libdbus-glib-1-2 is installed on my system, but the ./config process with Network Manager does not seem to recognize that name. How should I resolve this issue? Should I change the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable as the error message suggests, and how do I do that, or where should I look to find out?

TIA

Did you do an apt update first? Because network-manager is 0.9.10.0-7 as current version in Debian Jessie.

It shouldn't be there since the upgrade to Update Pack 8, http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.p ... 0#p1022589

(Well, of course you can put some repos in that file, just not the duplicates of Mint repos.)

Exacltly, remove all these from the file /etc/apt/sources.list:

Code: Select all

deb http://packages.linuxmint.com/ debian testing main upstream import
deb-src http://packages.linuxmint.com/ debian main upstream import #Added by software-properties
deb http://mirrors.ircam.fr/pub/linuxmint-debian/latest testing main contrib non-free
deb http://mirrors.ircam.fr/pub/linuxmint-debian/latest/security testing/updates main contrib non-free
deb http://mirrors.ircam.fr/pub/linuxmint-debian/latest/multimedia testing main non-free
And fix the virtualbox GPG key :)

I thought I was at UP8. Maybe I added the sources.list file manually afterward.
At any rate, I made sources.list identical to official-packages-repositories.list, and I got lots of W: messages, but apt dist-upgrade did run. It downloaded lots of packages and upgraded them.
Now, however, Mint install tells me I still have about 3 GB of upgrades to do. Here is the result of apt dist-upgrade.

Code: Select all

david@achernar:~$ apt dist-upgrade

You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 atril : Depends: libcaja-extension1 (>= 1.6.3) but it is not installed
 caja : Depends: caja-common (= 1.6.2-3+lmde) but 1.10.0-1+betsy is installed
 caja-gksu : Depends: libcaja-extension1 (>= 1.6.3) but it is not installed

Ok, we finally got this fixed in Caja 1.10.3-1+betsy. It should not break the upgrade anymore.
