Hello everyone,
Over the last couple of days, I've been trying to get the debian
boot-floppies building (I know some changes will be necessary) and as
it stands now, several packages are missing. In the process of trying
to compile/install these packages, I've run into some difficulties.
Here are some of them:
apt -- Package on pehc and .iso do not work. Missing lots of helper apps.
Seeing as apt was broken, I decided to download the woody version of apt so
I can get a newer version and hopefully skip some steps in building the
above packages. gcc 2.96 and apt-0.3.19 don't get along, so I tried picking
it up from cvs (supposed to have been fixed). Follow the directions on
cvs.debian.org
$ cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.debian.org:/cvs/APT login
(Logging in to anonymous@cvs.debian.org)
CVS password:
cvs login: authorization failed: server cvs.debian.org rejected access
Anyone know if there are other instructions other than what cvs.debian.org
says? If so, feel free to email me
rsync -- ldd crashes on dpkg-shlibdepends stage
Can I just manually put the required dependancies in?
autoconf -- installinfo spins
When installing the autoconf package (to compile dpkg) installinfo spins.
And after several minutes still doesn't return. It's taking up 100% cpu
at the time.
If I abort this, autoconf seems to be installed but cannot generate the
dpkg configure properly, some macros are missing
AM_CONDITIONAL(HAVE_CPLUSPLUS, test "$CXX" != "")
Is in the ./configure script.
info -- Reinstall spins
If I try to reinstall info, it spins on the uninstall. 100% cpu.
If anyone has any solutions for any of the above problems, I am all
ears (eyes?).
- Paul
