Bubba vs 1-wire - RRDtool install?

Post by BubbaN00b »

I've just hooked up my B3 to a 1-wire network and installed OWFS according to this swedish guide. Quite a breeze.

Next step is to install RRDTool according to this guide which seems to be a bit tricky (please observe my nickname).

Stuck on the first step with error: "Package rrdtool is not available, but is referred to by another package"

I tried to download it manually, but no success in installing it.

Since it seems that using Bubba as a 1-wire server isn't that uncommon there are probably a ton of knowledge in this forum that can help out.

Soo... anyone that could care to point me in the right direction? 8)

Hi BubbaN00b,

I tried it on my B3, and I had no complaints about installing the rrdtool package.
I have of course neither the the hardware nor the other software components, but you should be able to get that bit out of the repositories.
Perhaps there is an issue with how your source repositories are set up.
Have a look under /etc/apt.

I will send you a PM with all the details of mine.

Cheers,

Cheeseboy

Problem solved! 8)

My /etc/apt/sources.list was totally empty, so I updated it with the help from Cheeseboy.

Thanks Cheeseboy for your help - much appreciated! :D
