Pacman - install specific package versions
I'm coming off Gentoo and would like to know how pacman enables me to install a specific version of a package. With gentoo, if I wanted to stick with a certain version I could mask versions I did not want to install. Can I do the same thing with Arch?
@Jason: thanks for the tip, I hadn't thought of that tho I have used the pacman -U command to get yaourt.
SamC wrote:It may also be rolling release, but it seems less focused on having the latest versions. It's goal, not having used it, seems to be a base for building what you need and then leaving it as-is until you want to upgrade.
That's pretty accurate of the state of things if your on the stable branch of the portage tree (x86) (portage is similar to pacman, tho much more complex). If your on unstable (~x86), the experience in regards to package updates is almost identical to Arch.
If you want the latest packages on Gentoo, and still want your system to be highly reliable, the best way of doing that is to use the unstable branch and masking the core packages you don't want to be automatically upgraded, so you can upgrade them when your ready. Examples are parts of the build toolchain, X, kernel, etc.
Once you do that, just like with arch you can upgrade the entire system with one simple command "emerge -av world". This looks very similar to using yaourt to install a package from AUR.

[SOLVED] pacman install an old version of chromium???
i tried to install chromium and i do pacman -S chromium. and the output is:
resolving dependencies...
looking for inter-conflicts...
Targets (1): chromium-5.0.375.99-1
but if i look for arch chromium in google, it says there is chromium 7.0.517.44-1 in the extra repository which i have enabled, also i've tried pacman -Syu, just to see if it's some kind of update problem but it says there is nothing to update...
so what is the problem? why is pacman installing old versions???

Knowing installed support package version of Compliance Calibrator ??
Hi all,
We have Compliance Calibrator 5.1 in WAS 7.0, and we would want to know the installed support package... How to know ?
in CC, when clicking on "About" we just have the CC version ("5.1").
On the J2EE server System Information for the component ccappcomp, we just have "null (0.2007.03.09.15.22.41)".
It looks like SP3 but how to be sure ?
Thanks in advance...Vincent,
I believe that you can get this information in the NetWeaver Software Deployment Manager (SDM). If I remember correctly the AE/CC packages are deployed using this tool. SDM has version information for all J2EE deployed software packages.
You can find the SDM under /usr/sap/<SID>/DVEBMGS00/SDM (for Unix systems).
Best of luck.

How do I install specific language version of App-V Sp2 UI?
Background: multi-language environment, English as desired language.
The APP-V SP2 UI that can be downloaded here includes all possible languages you can imagine, but I would like to install only en-US version no matter what the language set in the computer is.
Also, that UI seems to install itself at right productcode only when installing user "formats" regional settings are en-US. All other language settings install using different productcodes which makes uninstalling and upgrading almost impossible
task to do.
So is there a easy way to install only en-US? If not then maybe a script that temporarily changes regional settings during msi install?Background: multi-language environment, English as desired language.

Answering to myself in case someone else struggles with the same dilemma:
Package has property ProductLanguage. Just set that to whatever language you want to install and it installs it using that. Example:
"msiexec /i appv_client_ui_setup.msi ALLUSERS=1 REBOOT=ReallySuppress ACCEPTEULA=1 ProductLanguage=1033 /qb-!"
Installs that package in en-US (and retains the productcode defined in property-table) -
[solved] Obtaining sources for a specific package version (freetype2)
I am currently trying to understand a problem that I have with freetype2. The problem occurs whith a propietary program (Mentor Graphics Questa) after updating from freetype2-2.5.0.1-1-x86_64 to freetype2-2.5.0.1-2-x86_64. Please see my forum post at:
http://communities.mentor.com/mgcx/message/46777
At the moment I am using a local version of the library when running Questa, but I would like to know why the update breaks compatibility. When I run a diff between the two binary packages, I get:

This doesn't tell me a lot, except that a dependency on libpng was added. Then I tried to get the sources for the two versions. I looked at:
https://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit … /freetype2
Unfortunately I only see a commit for 2.5.0.1, without the "-1" or "-2" by which the aforementioned versions differ. I couldn't find an explanation as to what these version suffixes mean. Is there a way to find out what exactly the difference between the two packages is?

I'm trying to grep pacman output for a specific packages (not just zsh) and receive only the package name as it was passed to pacman as a output (if it exists in the repos that is, otherwise blank / exit 1). The above command works fine in the terminal but when I'm trying to use it from a bash script it only returns blanks. How come?
Simplified version of the script:
tank (zsh ksh)
for x in ${tank[*]}; do
echo $x
present=$(pacman -Qs ${x} | cut -s -d/ -f2 | grep '^${x} ' | cut -d' ' -f1)

I expect it to return output of a pacman command in the second echo (or blank if there's no packgae like that).

Second echo returns blank... Am I quoting something wrong? -
Roll back to previous version of specific package
I have a general question. I recently upgraded with pacman -Syu and my lighttpd is now broken. Is there a way to simply roll back to the previous version of a specific package? Thanks!
see if the older package is still in /var/cache/pacman/pkg. If you find it, which you hsould be able to unless you ran pacman -Sc at an inopportune moment, you can install with pacman -U /var/cache/pacman/pkg/pkgname.pkgver.pkg.tar.gz

Installing "dummy" packages in pacman
I have an issue, and I've searched around, but found nothing. So here goes
Say a situation where I'd like to (or have to) install a piece of software without going though pacman, but still like it to be implemented in the database of pacman, so other PKGBUILDs will be aware that my dependency actually is there. I've heard about wocka in AUR, but it didn't work/compile on my Arch64 setup. I've made some "emtpy" packages by hand to counter this problem, but that is tedious. What I could use is something like:
pacman -D (dummy package ) mplayer, that simply installs an "empty" mplayer package. If this exists already, in a script or a hidden function in pacman, I'd be happy If it doesn't I could start freshing up my bash-skills >_<
Last edited by Themaister (2008-12-15 15:50:55)Well... I created a script now that covers it pretty much
usage:
dummypkg -S foo version installs a dummy pkg with pkgver=version, a file that resembles the package name and version in /etc/dummy (uses sudo for pacman)
dummypkg -R foo checks if foo has been installed by dummypkg and removes it with pacman
dummypkg -l lists all packages and package versions of all packages installed by dummypkg

unable to update itunes. help. error message when trying to update to latest version of itunes. "the installer has encountered an unexpected error installing this package. this may indicate a problem with this package. error code 2721"
Hello chae84swangin,
I recommend following the steps in the article below when getting an error message trying to install iTunes:
Trouble installing iTunes or QuickTime for Windows
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1926
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,
Sheila M. -
I tried updating iTunes to version 11.1.1, but installation fails each time even when I did it manually as was suggested. The message I receive is: "The installer has encountered an unexpected error installing this package. This may indicate a problem with this package. The error code is 2324."
Hi hongkongpom,
Just wanted to say that after posting the problem, I had a chat with an iTunes' Tech Support, her name is Rebekah. My problem was resolved after that. Will list the chat history below in hopes that it may help you as well.
Good luck!
Samia
Chat Transcript
Friday, October 4, 2013 05:55 AM
Duration: 81 minutes 28 seconds
Rebekah:
Welcome to AppleCare chat support. Please give me a moment to look over your information.
Rebekah:
Hi, Samia! My name is Rebekah. If we get disconnected, please chat us back. http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/contactEnter the case number from the initial email we sent you. This gives the next advisor you chat with immediate access to your case history.
Rebekah:
Could you please confirm your serial number? I want to be sure we provide the best service possible for you, Samia!
SAMIA:
Sure, it's 8L8395UY2C5
SAMIA:
My problem is with iTunes.
Rebekah:
Thanks for that confirmation. Just a heads up, this is iOS Tech Support. We do support iPod touches, iPads, and iPhones, but not the iPod classic. But no worries! I can get you in touch with a phone Advisor who can get you in touch with the department that specializes in iPod classics and would be able to better assist you. Would that be OK?
SAMIA:
I wasn't able to install the new version of iTunes (version 11.1.1). The installation keeps failing. The they suggested the I install it manually and that failed too. I will attach the message I received.
SAMIA:
I don't have a problem with iPod.
SAMIA:
Just iTunes
Rebekah:
No problem! We can certainly troubleshoot iTunes as much as possible. It may come to the point that you may have to transferred, but we can do as much as possible during this chat!
Rebekah:
Thanks for the screenshot. It is a bit small so I am unable to fully see the message that you are receiving. What is the error message you are receiving?
SAMIA:
This is the message I received in case you weren't able to open the attachment: "The installer has encountered an unexpected error installing this package. This may indicate a problem with this package. The error code is 2324."
Rebekah:
Thanks for that info!
SAMIA:
Pleasure!
Rebekah:
What version of Windows (XP, Vista, 7) do you have?
SAMIA:
Windows 7
SAMIA:
Windows 7 Home Premium
Rebekah:
Thanks for that confirmation. I do apologize for the delay, Samia. I am researching this error code now. You mentioned trying to install iTunes manually. To be sure I am on the same page, what steps did you take to do that?
SAMIA:
Well when the indsatalltion failed I was given instructions to select Download Only from Tools and then install manually. When I did it, I window popped up with the following items: - AppleApplicationSupport
SAMIA:
- AppleMobileDeviceSupport64
SAMIA:
- Bonjour64
SAMIA:
iTunes64
SAMIA:
SetupAdmin
SAMIA:
I selected Repair in all of them instead of Remove and all worked but iTunes64
SAMIA:
That's when I received the message that I sent you earlier.
SAMIA:
By the way, this is the fir st time something like this occured. I never had problems with installation before.
Rebekah:
I completely understand what you're saying. Since that Repair did not resolve the issue, our best option is to uninstall iTunes and its components and redownload it. To do this, we will follow the steps in this article: Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
Rebekah:
First, we will want to quit iTunes and/or Apple Software Update if those are open at this time.
SAMIA:
Rebekah, the instructions you gave says, "For Windows XP, follow these steps to remove and reinstall iTunes and other software components for Windows XP."
SAMIA:
I closed all applications
SAMIA:
Also, my iTunes doesn't open anymore after the new failed installation.
Rebekah:
The section that says "For Windows XP…" is in case we opened up the wrong article, as we have the one for Windows Vista, 7, or 8. There is a link to click ("these steps") in those directions that would take us to the article for uninstalling on a Windows XP.
Rebekah:
So no worries! We have the right article!
Rebekah:
On the computer, we will want to click on Start > Control Panel. In Control Panel, we will click the "Uninstall a program" link.
SAMIA:
I thought so after doing a little exploration.
SAMIA:
done
Rebekah:
Alright, we'll want to select iTunes from the list of currently installed programs. Then we will click Uninstall. When asked if you would like to remove iTunes, let's click Yes.
Rebekah:
After the uninstallation is complete, we don't want to restart your computer if you're prompted.
SAMIA:
Done
Rebekah:
Then if you see other iTunes entries on the list, we'll want to remove them the same way.
Rebekah:
Then we will remove all instances of Apple Software Update the same way you removed iTunes.
SAMIA:
Okay, but do I have to remoce iCloud as well?
SAMIA:
Rebekah, I received the same error message again when uninstalling
Rebekah:
We actually do not need to remove iCloud. After the Apple Software Update, we will want to remove all instances of Apple Mobile Device Support
Rebekah:
How strange! Are you able to click past that and allow the process to continue or has it stopped it completely?
SAMIA:
I am unable to uninstall iTunes either
SAMIA:
Stopped completely
SAMIA:
I treied clicking Repair
Rebekah:
Alright, after trying the Repair option, let's see if it will allow us to continue uninstalling or not.
SAMIA:
I tried that but unfortunately, it isn't working. I still get that same message with error code 2324.
Rebekah:
This error code is not something that I am finding in my sources, Samia. So there is a chance that it is being caused with the Windows computer itself. However, I did find a link that may be able to help with uninstalling iTunes from Windows' support site: http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall
SAMIA:
Rebekah, you're a genius! It worked! iTunes is no longer there. What next?
Rebekah:
Awesome! I'm glad that worked!
Rebekah:
To be sure I am on the same page, what was the last component we uninstalled?
SAMIA:
iTunes
SAMIA:
Shall I remove the Apple Application Support, Apple Mobile Device Support, and Apple Software Update
Rebekah:
That is correct! However, we do want to uninstall it in the order I mentioned above. So Apple Software Update first, Apple Mobile Device Support next, and then Apple Mobile Device Support.
SAMIA:
Got it, but is the second one to uninstall Apple Mobile Device Support OR Apple pplication Support?
Rebekah:
The second one is Apple Mobile Device Support.
Rebekah:
The Application Support will be the last component we uninstall.
SAMIA:
Thanks! I'm on it.
SAMIA:
Done! ll 3 are gone, well 4 with iTunes. Now what?
Rebekah:
Awesome! Also, I just noticed that I accidentally typed Apple Mobile Device Support twice, I do apologize for any confusion! Now we will remove all instances of Bonjour and then remove all instances of Apple Application Support.
SAMIA:
There was only 1 instance with Bonjour. I don't know what the instances are for Apple Application Support
Rebekah:
Yes, Bonjour is often only listed once. Is the Apple Application Support listed at all?
SAMIA:
No
SAMIA:
Since I removed it
Rebekah:
Oh, perfect! If it was removed, we should be set!
Rebekah:
We have removed iTunes and its components now! From here, our next step is to restart the computer. Then once you reboot, you can redownload iTunes from apple.com/itunes
Rebekah:
That should allow you to download iTunes!
SAMIA:
Shall I downloaad the latest vesion?
Rebekah:
You will want to first restart the computer as shown in the article. That will ensure that this process goes smoothly and that everything was removed correctly! Then you can try downloading iTunes again.
SAMIA:
Okay, thanks Rebekah!
Rebekah:
You're very welcome! I'm glad I could help! And of course if you have any issue after the reboot and download, you can always chat us back, as chat is open 24 hours! You will just need to give your case number and the next Advisor would have all my notes!
SAMIA:
Thanks again for all your help, for I couldn't have managed with out it. Have a nice day!
Rebekah:
You're very welcome! I know how important iTunes is and I'm glad we could get you on a path to resolution!
Rebekah:
I hope you have a lovely day!
Rebekah:
It's been a pleasure speaking with you! Thanks for chatting with us Samia. If you don't have any more questions, select End Chat from the upper left corner of the chat window.
SAMIA:
Will do, thanks. -
I am trying to install the latest version of itunes and when the install begins I get the message "There is a problem with this Windows installer package. A program required for this install could not be opened. contact your support personnel or product vendor". I ran a troubleshooting diagnostic on my computer and nothing flagged as a problem. I uninstalled iTunes and tried again and now I don't have any way to sync my ipod touch. Please help with any suggestions!!!
Just in case, let's try a standalone AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi install.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe, and select "Extract to iTunesSetup". WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup".
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi to do a standalone ASU install.
(If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi again.)
Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If not, what error message do you get? (Precise text, please.) -
I want to install Windows 7 on my band new Macbook Pro 13 inch and use Parallel Desktop 6 torun it alongside my Mac OS. Do I need to buy a specific Mac version of Windows 7 or do I install a standard Windows 7 OS on the Mac using boot camp.
As vazandrew said, Boot Camp will work with any standard copy of Win 7.
The only exception would be if you want to run it in a virtual environment, such as with Parallels or WMware.
I personally recommend Boot Camp, however, since it only uses the resources for one OS at a time. -
Why pacman do not prompt I have installed that package???
I found that pacman do not prompt installed packages. It leads to reinstalling packages.
It's a bad situation...The times I miss "--needed" as default option, is when I install groups where I already have installed some packages of this group. Every time I see myself starting pacman twice. First without and then with "--needed".
I mean whenever I explicit say "pacman install foo" and I already have foo, I expect pacman to just install foo, as I know what I'm doing. Or maybe it should say "You already have foo, do you really want (Y/N)?". But when I install a group and there are single packages already installed, then I want pacman to just install the rest of the group, not the packages that I already have.
I see that this is a break in consistency, but maybe its more that what the user wants. At least its more what I want
Maybe it could just be solved with the silly question "foo, bar and something other are already installed, do you want do install them again (Y/N)?" -
