Jessie, apt-get dist-upgrade and 404's

[DougieLawson]

Yesterday I saw an interesting post about Jessie. So download and installed her overnight, no problems so far.

Tonight I thought I'd see if any packages needed an update so ran my usual
apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade # which is normal practice on a brand new distro

That fails with

Code: Select all

root@pi ~ # apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade

Can we get the missing stuff needed for Jessie added? Thanks.

The update and upgrade has been working fine for months on jessie, but there is some confusion on dist-upgrade. It gives me a dpkg error on three debs and fails error code 1, something about wayland being in another package when overwriting. I assume dist-upgrade is not safe for now. Any eta?

[jackokring]

It seems wayland has not been made rpi to a high enough version yet so that a dist-upgrade would work. If you have done a dist-upgrade and got the error from dpkg of unmet dependencies, then apt-get -f install will fix one of the three errors. The other two will never go away until wayland is pied up. this seems to make future upgrades fail, until a working update will have been done.

Maybe you were lucky with a 404, as it did not lock you into waiting for wayland before upgrades of any package will work.

[DougieLawson]

Thanks for confirming that things are working for you.

I took a look at my /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ and found the offending item.

Can you please post the complete errors you are getting?

What did you use to perform the installation?

The raspberry pi foundation repository does not have packages specifically for jessie at this time. Their wheezy packages should be ok on jessie for the moment though.

[DougieLawson]

I did the install by updating /etc/apt/sources.list then running apt-get update && apt-get upgrade (and answering all those "you've updated foo keep your copy or install the maintainers")

I've fixed the 404 by renaming /etc/apt/sources.list.d/raspi.list to raspi.list~ (I'll change it back when Jessie goes generally available.)

I'm very happy and I've not yet found anything that's broken in Jessie. I've been beta testing software for 20 years so nothing surprises me. I'm just not enough of an expert at apt-get and all of it's painful gotchas.

Not currently as the pi is shut down. But something about fix this using apt-get -f install, which does not fix it. It fixes 1/3rd of the problem. There are still unresolved dependencies (only after trying a dist-upgrade, not before that), relating to wayland/weston version needing to be above 1.3 for some things, and it not being high enough, and was not installed. Failure was on 2 deb files, client and server wayland.

It seems the missing packages do not have rpi in the deb version, where as the ones less than version 1.3 do have an rpi in the version name, but apt-get E: complained. I assume the distro is not dist-upgrade able until these debs can install their dependencies.

The jessie was installed by just doing a wheezy->jessie in the sources. I added oracle-java7-jdk and wolfram-engine just fine (apart from long time update), X still works, nothing obviously is wrong with general operations, it just refuses to do sudo apt-get upgrade now without having these 2 errors. It was the first time I had tried sudo apt-get dist-upgrade on jessie when I got the errors.

[jackokring]

Other packages I installed were libreoffice, lazarus, qtcreator, eclipse and openjdk6. Beyond those it's all pretty standard. The control-D I need to do when my media volume is not plugged in is fstab related, and the system root is on USB with /boot being the only content of the SD. I did an rpi-update before trying the dist-upgrade yesterday.

Is there a way of clearing the apt-get of pending deb files, such that I can then try an upgrade? I can live without the dist-upgrade for quite a while, but I was just testing latest leading edge software. Is it possible to unwind the dist-upgrade, if it is not working for me? It did reduce the number of held back packages though from over 100?

For testing, would it be possible for you to pm me a code which could be used with a future command say rpi-debug-report, such that it would be sent to a server with a command set of your choice piped to a text file? just for the future like, as I'm not sure I could update/upgrade if it became available? Maybe it could auto fill out a forum response post too.

[jackokring]

And just to confirm the initial dist-upgrade worked and got me jessie, it's a second dist-upgrade which failed for me. (libwayland-server0/libwayland-client0) IIRC

[vibez]

Just out of interest is Jessie released yet?

Not that I've seen.

I'm an early user because I'm happy to find things that might not work when I install them. Not that I've found any bugs with Jessie.

[jackokring]

The dist-upgrade seems to work now with some complaining, but no unsolvable errors. I haven't tried many things but X starts, and Mathematica works. There's a new version of the C compiler, and all the wayland errors have gone.
