update/upgrade issue - audacious-omg_0.8_all.deb

bradley · **Joined:** Thu Sep 03, 2015 8:24 pm **Posts:** 15

I had just this issue by trying to update/upgrade:

Code:

Preparing to unpack .../audacious-omg_0.8_all.deb ...
Unpacking audacious-omg (0.8) over (0.0.7) ...
dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/audacious-omg_0.8_all.deb (--unpack):
 trying to overwrite '/usr/share/uberstudent/applications/audacious-qt.desktop', which is also in package audacious-oxygen-icons 0.0.4
dpkg-deb: error: subprocess paste was killed by signal (Broken pipe)
Copying over architecture-specific files...

Everything else did work but audacious-omg_0.8_all.deb did not install. In case someone else is having issues with it, this is how it got sorted out in the end:

Remove audacious-oxygen-icons:

Code:

apt-get remove audacious-oxygen-icons

After that just simply update and upgrade by:
# apt-get update
# apt-get upgrade
# apt-get dist-upgrade

After this, everything seems to be fine.

P.S.: Somehow "super+d" does not work for me. Maybe it's related to uberstudent-desktop-xfce, which could not be installed because of an other package (this broken package was blocking updates by saying: try "install -f", which did not work, so I just removed both packages). Is it because I do not use thunar? (removed it, there are other FMs I like better) I'm not sure, however it's not an issue as everything works fine atm.

And one more thing: Just discovered a small but fine picture viewer: gpicview - really like it, simple and easy to use.

This happened to a few people who just happened to do updates during a very tiny window while I was adding packages to the repository.

Here's the easier way to fix it:

Code:

sudo apt-get purge audacious-uberoxygen-icons

Or in UberStudent 4.3 just:

Code:

apt-purge audacious-uberoxygen-icons

Then just run updates from the update manager.

In the future, I'll take the repo offline for just a minute (literally) so this does not happen again. :oops:

Note:

Usually, running these commands is a very bad practice:

apt-get upgrade
apt-get dist-upgrade

Why? Because running those will automatically "upgrade" things such as xorg server and the Linux kernel, which can actually break a perfectly working system. People should only upgrade those if they have some good reason for doing so related to non-functioning or poorly functioning hardware. If you update with only the Update Manager, you can avoid such issues.

If Super+D is not working, make sure you have xfdashboard installed:

Code:

apt-install xfdashboard

Indeed, thanks for pointing it out. I got used to command line updates and upgrades before and sometimes forget that in certain cases it's not a good idea.

xfdashboard is already installed. Also tried to re-install it, but it does not work at "super+d" (maybe a daemon issue). However I can start it by command line. I did not even know what xfdashboard exactly is, just checked it on youtube and it looks good, although I do not need it, so it's not really an issue atm. The only thing I miss on XFCE is the possibility of screen edge configuration (like on KDE). Having said that, I'm just wondering if xfdashboard could be configured in a way that it starts by pulling the cursor to a certain corner.

Just checked it and it seems it is possible:
"With the release of xfce4-hotcorner-plugin a new Xfce panel applet exists which supports hot-corners performing different actions including starting xfdashboard."

That's a good way for a quick overview.

Make sure you have all updates applied and try Super+D again to call xfdashboard.

Stephen ,I also updated while you were adding packages. Before I read this post, I removed Audacious and some of its dependencies from the Synaptic Package Manager in the hopes of just reinstalling it. Unfortunately,when I check install I am told "fix broken packages first" . I tried to fix broken packages and was given this Error message.(E: Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages.
E: Unable to correct dependencies).... How should I proceed ?

Stephen Ewen · **Posted:** Mon Jan 18, 2016 7:07 pm

Hit F12 on your keyboard to call a terminal and run

Code:

sudo apt-get purge audacious-oxygen-icons

Then, run

Code:

sudo apt-get install -f

.Finally, run

Code:

sudo apt-get install audacious audacious-omg

Does this fix the issue?

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
audacious : Depends: audacious-plugins (>= 3.4.3) but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

Do you have the Update Manger set to run by default at startup? I'm thinking apparently not. If so it would be updating your apt cache every 30 minutes in the background. To do with intervention what it does without it, run sudo apt-get update and then again take the steps I explained in my prior post. The packages audacious and audacious-plugins version 3.7 are, in fact, in the repository. See the links below.

http://uberstudent.net/pool/main/a/audacious/

http://uberstudent.net/pool/main/a/audacious-plugins/

But your system apparently does not know about them because the cache has not been updated for some time.

You can also run Applications menu > System > Administration > Fixes > Software System Fixer and it will update your cache as part of what it does; then, again take the steps outlined in the prior post.

audacious-omg package gives error.

I tried the following fix:

Code:

|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|||| Software System Fixer for UberStudent 4.3 ||||

This script fixes most issues that can cause an apt software system to break.
If your system cannot update or install software, you should definitely run this.
For the few issues it cannot automatically fix, it will not make matters worse.
