Hi all,

I've enabled the B3 release candidate repositories:

Code: Select all

deb http://b3.update.excito.org/ hugo main
deb http://b3.update.excito.org/ upstream_squeeze_forhugo main

and I'm getting a lot of dependicitis when running

Code: Select all

aptitude dist-upgrade

Code: Select all

The following NEW packages will be installed:

NVM, I think I've resolved it by enabling the elvin repo too.

[NisseJ]

Oh....betas is nice.

Well, i tired to activate it with these small clues, so..i have probably killed my B3

Well, experimentation is fun

[RandomUsername]

Yep. Found one bug already. Will report it tomorrow when I'm at home and can get screen grabs.

[johannes]

Please do report what you find, we are getting close to release. Thanks!

Hi Johannes,

I've started a dedicated thread here: http://forum.excito.net/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=3143

Don't know if I'm stupid here, but I added the repositories to my sources.list, ie:

Code: Select all

# B3 beta
deb http://b3.update.excito.org/ hugo main
deb http://b3.update.excito.org/ upstream_squeeze_forhugo main

...and then I ran the usual

Code: Select all

apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade

but it doesn't find any upgrades. What is this???

/Daniel

[RandomUsername]

Weird. Have you tried It with aptitude instead of apt-get? Also just try

Code: Select all

aptitude upgrade

.

[DanielM]

Installed aptitude now and tried that. Same result there. Just

Inga paket kommer att installeras, uppgraderas eller tas bort.
0 paket att uppgradera, 0 att nyinstallera. 0 att ta bort och 0 inte uppgraderade.
Behöver hämta 0B arkiv. Efter uppackning kommer 0B diskplats att användas.

(I guess even those of you that don't speak swedish can read the above, right? )

Well, I can read the 0's

Not sure about this. Can you copy your sources.list for comparison?

[DanielM]

Not sure about this. Can you copy your sources.list for comparison?

Quite sure it's correct, when I run apt-get I can see the fetching of metadata from hugo and upstream_squeeze_forhugo. Anyways, here goes (stripped from comments):

Code: Select all

deb http://b3.update.excito.org/ elvin main

deb http://b3.update.excito.org/ upstream_squeeze main

deb http://ftp.se.debian.org/debian squeeze main

deb http://ftp.se.debian.org/debian squeeze contrib

deb http://ftp.se.debian.org/debian squeeze non-free

deb http://backports.debian.org/debian-backports squeeze-backports main

deb http://b3.update.excito.org/ hugo main
deb http://b3.update.excito.org/ upstream_squeeze_forhugo main

Also tried commenting out the squeeze-backports in case it had something with this to do. Didn't make any difference.

OK. Have your tried disabling the evlin repos? This is the order I did things:

1. comment out the elvin repos.
2. add hugo repos.
3. aptitude update && aptitude upgrade && aptitude dist-upgrade.
4. got dependicitis.
5. added elvin repos back in.
6. aptitude update && aptitude upgrade && aptitude dist-upgrade.

Maybe the upgrade only works when you've got the elvin repo disabled. I don't know. Worth a shot.

[DanielM]

OK. Have your tried disabling the evlin repos?

Wow. That really did it...

Code: Select all

224 att uppgradera, 62 att nyinstallera, 0 att ta bort och 1 att inte uppgradera.

So... I don't really have the guts to push "y" now. Did this upgrade break anything for you? I might think about taking backup of stuff before going ahead...

/Daniel

[johannes]

Yes, I think disabling the elvin repos should do the trick. Shortcut:

Code: Select all

change_distribution hugo
apt-get update
apt-get dist-upgrade

[johannes]

Yes, if you have data or work that's important it might be a good idea to hold your horses for a while with the command line update, Carl discovered a problem in the update system, so to make sure the upgrade goes through without errors we'll push a hotfix before the upgrade.

I suspect the problems you found here is due to a partially failed update (but I'm not sure, for Carl to figure out tomorrow).
