hey guys,after downloading a package it seemd like i didnt have gcc/cc installed, so i got that solved with apt-get install gcc, though now i am unable to use it since libpcap-dev isnt installed so runing apt-get install libpcap-dev dies on depedency for libc6-dev, trying to apt-get install libc6-dev dies on another dependency... any ideas how do i solve these? i was trying apt-get install aptitude, since i know from my debian experience that aptitude solves dependency problems better than apt-get but that failed too... thanks in advance, liran.

moreover, i have just noticed that make/make install aren't present either.

ok, some problems fixed:i've updated my sources.list for testing packages (sarge) and vwalla - libpcap-dev libc6 etc are all installed. im now missing the compiler make utility to build source packages. how do i resolve this? Posted by liran on June 02 2005,12:52
another problem fixed:`apt-get install make` solves the problem this thread can be closed - thanks Posted by clivesay on June 02 2005,13:22
Hi, liran.A simplier solution is a gcc1.dsl package in the mydsl repository. Sorry I dodn't see this thread earlier! Chris |
