0.3: Testing VDR 1.7.20 - problems with dist-upgrade

benoe · 9. September 2011

Some of the channels in my area doesn't have sound because of AAC-LATM so I really want to test the new VDR version with yaVDR 0.3.

I already wrote some feedback here and here, but I will also put my experiences to this forum:

I have an up-to date yavdr 0.3 with almost everything working (except aac on some channels) I added the main and the vdr-testing ppas to the repos.

Then I tried to do a sudo apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade round, but I got the following message:

Code

The following packages will be REMOVED:
  libtntnet8 yavdr-essential yavdr-startup yavdr-utils
The following NEW packages will be installed:
  libcxxtools7 libproc-processtable-perl libtntnet9

and some of the packages to be upgraded.

I run it, but first I got this error:

Code

dpkg-divert: mismatch on package
  when removing `diversion of /etc/firefox/profile/prefs.js to /etc/firefox/profile/prefs.js.dontremove by yavdr-startup

I found a solution here

Code

sudo dpkg-divert --remove /etc/firefox/profile/prefs.js

after that I got the following error:

Code

dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/libcxxtools7_2.0+r1231-3yavdr3~lucid_i386.deb (--unpack):
 trying to overwrite '/usr/lib/libcxxtools.so.7.0.0', which is also in package libcxxtools6 0:2.0+r1201-1yavdr1

Here I am now. Pls help.

Did you follow at all, what seahawk1986 did recommend in yaVDR blog from Bugtracker:

https://bugs.yavdr.com/issues/427#note-4

Code

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
sudo dpkg --remove libcxxtools6
sudo dpkg --remove libcxxtools6 libtntnet8
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
sudo apt-get install libtntnet9 && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
sudo apt-get install -f
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

yes, but yavdr-essential is not there after, and when I want to install:

Code

The following packages have unmet dependencies:  yavdr-essential: Depends: yavdr-startup but it is not going to be installed                   Depends: yavdr-utils but it is not going to be installed

Yavdr-startup is depends on yavdr-utils only.

When trying to install yavdr-utils:

Code

The following packages have unmet dependencies:  yavdr-utils: Depends: libtntnet8 but it is not going to be installed

when trying to install libtntnet8:

Code

The following extra packages will be installed:  libcxxtools6The following packages will be REMOVED:  libtntnet9 tntnet tntnet-runtimeThe following NEW packages will be installed:  libcxxtools6 libtntnet8

error:

Code

dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/libcxxtools6_2.0+r1201-1yavdr1_i386.deb (--unpack): trying to overwrite '/usr/lib/libcxxtools-http.so.7.0.0', which is also in package libcxxtools7 0:2.0+r1231-3yavdr3~lucid

this last one looks very familiar to me

Which PPA repositories did you add and how have you done it? And which ones are active now?

Could you please show:

Code

#\> apt-cache policy libtntnet8 libtntnet9 vdr yavdr-essential

I tried a switch from yaVDR 0.3a with current updates to the unstable-PPA within a VM.
The solution in the Bugreport is based on a normal Lucid system without the packages from (un)stable-yavdr PPAs.

There is a colliding dependency by yavdr-utls, which wants to install libcxxtools6 whereas other packages as vdr-plugin-live do require libcxxtools7.

At the moment it is not possible to use yaVDR 0.3 together with the unstable- or testing-PPAs.
A plain Lucid installation + main + testing-vdr (or even unstable-vdr) should work (at least it does on my primary VDR). If you want to test a more recent version of VDR/yaVDR give yaVDR 0.4pre1 (caution: alpha release) a try.

Do you have any information when it will be fixed?
I'm very satisfied with the current setup except the AAC sound issue.
Btw, I'm also trying 0.4pre1, but I have different problems what I will write down in another thread.

Only "It's done when it's done"... but fnu told me he would have a look at it.

fnu · 9. September 2011

Zitat von benoe

Do you have any information when it will be fixed?

Well, it hasn't ever been planned to be an upgrade for yaVDR 0.3 and be aware, it hasn't indeed been advertised as an upgrade for yaVDR 0.3 in our blog.

It has rather been an update for all the experienced people out there using the Lucid repositories building VDR machines on their own manner. Doesn't mean you're not experienced, but right know you have to decide between using yaVDR 0.3 or "ppa:yavdr/testing-vdr" && "ppa:yavdr/main" on your own responsibility.

Do not ever use "ppa:yavdr/testing-vdr" with yaVDR 0.3, we won't ever take care if these packages do run with yaVDR 0.3 nor if all dependencies are working, they do just run with Ubuntu 10.04 (lucid). Bottomline we even don't guarantee this for "ppa:yavdr/testing-vdr", whereas please remind, it's name is testing, not stable.

But we feel that some of you might want to use the newer versions out there with yaVDR 0.3, so we will have a look to resolve at least the dependencies, but there could still some problems kept in the packages of this testing repository.

So, please be patient, stay tuned and don't forget yaVDR's future is 0.4!

I only started to test it with 0.3, because you announced it on the web page: "Packages for Ubuntu Lucid (yaVDR 0.3) and Ubuntu Natty (yaVDR 0.4) are now available, but most of them are untested" and was glad that I could solve the aac issue with the current setup, but also want to help you testing it. Otherwise I wouldn't even try, or at least wouldn't report there and here.

I tought the opposite, that there is yavdr, the main project, and there is an option, with less attention, for users who want install yavdr on their average desktop machines. Maybe I wasn't just prudent enough in this matter.

Good to know that, as I wrote, I tought the opposite.

This, I'm aware of. (testing is testing, not stable )

I know the future is 0.4, but right now it is not working for me as it should.
But I'm also not in a hurry, I could totally accept the "when it is done" method, righ now I satisfied with my current setup, as I wrote already.

seahawk1986 · 16. September 2011

Hi benoe,
could you give the new Packages in testing-vdr/yaVDR for yaVDR 0.3 a try?

/etc/apt/sources.list.d/yavdr.list

Code

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/yavdr/main/ubuntu lucid main
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/yavdr/testing-vdr/ubuntu lucid main
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/yavdr/testing-xbmc/ubuntu lucid main
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/yavdr/testing-yavdr/ubuntu lucid main

Code

sudo apt-get update
sudo dpkg --remove libcxxtools6 libtntnet8 tntnet tntnet-runtime vdr-plugin-live yavdr-utils yavdr-essential yavdr-startup
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
sudo apt-get install vdr-plugin-live yavdr-essential
sudo apt-get autoremove
sudo apt-get install vdr-addon-noad

On my VM I had to change the frontend to xine and switch back to vdr-sxfe in order to see vdr-sxfe again - could you check if testing-packages do work for you?

benoe · 16. September 2011

Thanks, the upgrade went well!

only one error appeared after dpkg --remove:

Code

dpkg-divert: mismatch on package
  when removing `diversion of /etc/firefox/profile/prefs.js to /etc/firefox/profile/prefs.js.dontremove by yavdr-startup'
  found `diversion of /etc/firefox/profile/prefs.js to /etc/firefox/profile/prefs.js.dontremove by yavdr-utils'
dpkg: error processing yavdr-utils (--remove):
 subprocess installed post-removal script returned error exit status 2

but I solved with this:

Code

sudo dpkg-divert --remove /etc/firefox/profile/prefs.js

and after that two of the config files got replaced(or asked if I want to replace): order.conf and tntnet.conf

I only tried the result with xbmc frontend, and the channels that didn't have sound before now have.

So thanks for all your effort!

According to fnu this error can be ignored so you don't have to do "dpkg-divert --remove /etc/firefox/profile/prefs.js".

benoe · 16. September 2011

yes, but as I remember it stopped the removal process

seahawk1986 · 16. September 2011

When you described your problem for the first time it truly did. When I tried it today within a VM it was not necessary to do so anymore.

Just for our curiousity and to confirm the issue, your VDR is now running with VDR 1.7.20 from our testing repositories? Means, the case could be seen as solved?

fnu

Btw.: The elaborated above mentioned procedure does imply, that you have installed yaVDR 0.3 with all updates from the stable repositories, I should had mentioned this to seahawk1986, sorry ...

Yes, I had an up-to-date yavdr 0.3 system and also a disk-level backup of it when I started the upgrade process seahawk1986 mentioned.

Could you please tell me what you mean by "disk-level backup" ?

Does the testing repo contain the packages of yavdr 0.4 with the new features like the channelpedia?

Are you running on a 32 bit architecture and is the resulting system that you could stable?

Thanks in advance for the information.

seahawk1986 · 19. September 2011

At the moment testing-yavdr contains only a part of yaVDR 0.4pre1 new Webfrontend. As far as I can see within my VM installation there is no Channelpedia. It's far from stable as the Packages in unstable/testing-vdr are only intended to be used by experienced users of a "normal" Ubuntu with vdr-packages from the yaVDR-PPA.
There seems to be a problem when using streamdev-client, too (at least in my VM it doesn't recieve any channels).
