Error in the APT repository

[TurboRascal]

There is something wrong with file paths in Packages files for lazarus-stable, so it's not possible to install anything (package manager gets 404's).

lazarus-testing works fine (BTW I wonder what's the difference between the two repos, they seem to contain the same Lazarus version).

Whose Apt repository?  There are several distros that use the deb packages, plus a couple of repositories  that aren't part of any particular distro.

[TurboRascal]

I meant the official repo at www.hu.freepascal.org, by default. I would certainly not complain here for a third party one

Hi!

We couldn't install Lazarus from repository, because there are wrong filename entries in Packages file (stable).
(Filename: /home/fpchome/fpcfan/lazarus-www/dists/lazarus-stable/universe/binary-i386/*.deb)

Thx

I have no idea where that absolute path came from. I regenerated the Packages file. Please try again.

lazarus-testing works fine (BTW I wonder what's the difference between the two repos, they seem to contain the same Lazarus version).

lazarus-testing now contains RC1 of Lazarus 0.9.30.2. Also a new release will first be rolled out to to the testing repository and then to the stable repository.

It's working now. Thank you

[How To] Add Lazarus testing repo in Ubuntu. Tested on Ubuntu 11.11 x86.

1. Add in "Update Manager - Settings - Other Software - Add"  this apt line:
 

Code: [Select]

deb http://www.hu.freepascal.org/lazarus/ lazarus-testing universe
2. Remove from "Update Manager - Settings - Other Software" the last line (Lazarus Source Code).
Close Update Manager.

3. In terminal:
 

Code: [Select]

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install lazarus
That's it!

Hehe you forgot to import the GPG key first:

http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/How_to_setup_a_FPC_and_Lazarus_Ubuntu_repository#Add_the_key

1°)
gpg --keyserver hkp://pgp.mit.edu:11371 --recv-keys 670C48C26A11800F

2°)
gpg --export 670C48C26A11800F | sudo apt-key add -

then the rest

[Vincent Snijders]

FabianWang, testing and stable use the same gpg key, so for switching to testing, you don't need to import the keys.

@Vincent Snijders: thanks, the stable repository works fine now that the paths are correct.

I am however unable to install 0.9.30.2 with the following dependency errors on Ubuntu Lucid (I believe I had the same ones when I tried to install 0.9.30.1 before):

lazarus-ide-0.9.30.2:
 Depends: libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 (>=2.22.0) but it is not installable
  Depends: libgtk2.0-0 (>=2.24.0) but 2.20.1-0ubuntu2 is to be installed

TurboRascal, please create a bug report.

[TurboRascal]

No problem, I'll do it as soon I get to it...

[TurboRascal]

It took me a while, but finally I did it here.

I hope someone else didn't report it in the meanwhile so I don't double report it, I did a search and found nothing...
