[SOLVED] Cannot install 'renpy'

Hallo.
I want to install renpy. So, I downloaded 'renpy-aio' from aur. 'pyhton-renpy' and 'renpy' are outdated.
I successfully compiled them with makepkg and now I have two .pkg.tar.gz files. But when I try to install them with pacman, I receive the following error:
pacman -U renpy-aio-6.18.3-1-any.pkg.tar.xz renpy-allinone-6.18.3-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz

Any idea how to install renpy?
Thank you

Well, I finally installed it. I first installed your suggestion and then I installed python-renpy-aio-6.18.3-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz and renpy-aio-6.18.3-1-any.pkg.tar.xz.
Pacman removed the outdated python-renpy [6.17.xxx version] and everything is ok.
After some tests to understand what was wrong, all I needed to install from the builded Aur package was:
python-renpy-aio-6.18.3-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz
renpy-aio-6.18.3-1-any.pkg.tar.xz
and NOT renpy-allinone-6.18.3-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz because there was an conflict with 'renpy' package.
Problem solved. Thank you...

    Thank God, everything is fixed now:
    First, I deleted all these files, then i follows the following procedure
    1. For libgexiv2 file i upgraded 'xorg-server, xorg-xinit, xorg-utils, xorg-server-utils' from pacman
    # pacman -S xorg-server xorg-xinit xorg-utils xorg-server-utils
    2. For libraw file i upgraded 'libraw' from pacman
    # pacman -S libraw
    There will be some conflicting files
    After deleting some conflicting files it solves the problem and restore all the 'lib' file.

    Hey.
    I cannot install WINE. I already enabled =multilib=, did "pacman -Syu", restarted.
    sudo pacman -S wine
    error: target not found: wine
    I did "pacman -Scc" a few times and chose "Yes" when I was asked to clear unused Repos.
    Any thoughts?

    Generally it is less pain to stick to pacman only.  Using anything else would mean pacman cannot know what packages certain files belong to, similar to what you ran into here.
    Got it. Seems I have to reinstall my python packages from scratches again.
    Thanks to all the help.

  • [solved] cannot install pacstrap /mnt base to UEFI without internet

    Hello everybody.
    Today I decided to install ArchLinux because of some problems on my Linux Mint System.
    On my laptop Lenovo yoga 13  while using Mint I installed Wi-Fi drivers after installation. It is not working out of the box.
    There is no Ethernet port on this laptop.
    In Begginer's Guide I have read that internet may be set up later. Ok, I skipped it and do next steps as in manual.
    When I go to step of installing base system the following happens
    # pacstrap /mnt base base-devel
    Error strings are running: could not get file ... from ... Could not resolve host ...
    And at the end:
    Cannot synchronize any database
    Cannot start request (error in boot library)
    Error ==> Failed to install pakages to new root
    I stopped here. Why it tries to connect to internet?
    P.S. I am installing from fresh iso from 2014.05.01 via LiveUSB.
    Please tell me what should I do?

    What packages does it mean: dependent pkgs or pkgs that will be downloaded?
    Again, I cannot download anything, so I need to install theese packages the same way as I try to install this one for wifi?
    And for installing theese pkgs, perhaps, I will need to install packages, dependent on theese? Oh... Recursion.
    What should I do?

    Not sure why typing 'gimp' is bringing up 'gimpshop', but anyhoo...
    I just punched in 'http://mirrors.easynews.com/linux/archl … po/os/i686' into Epiphany and it 404's, so I'd assume it's down at the mo. Meantime, if you go into your mirrorlist and uncomment whichever 'Server = *' is closest to you (you could just do any of them, but the nearest ones will give you better performance) and comment out that bottom line.
    All going to plan, that should sort it.

    What happens if you try to start the daemon after fixing the permissions (/etc/rc.d/mysqld start). Also check the mysql logs in /var/log should it fail.
    If I try running daemon after fixing permissions still I see
    /etc/rc.d/mysqld start
    :: Starting MySQL Server [BUSY]
    [FAIL]
    Do you get this?
    % grep mysql /etc/passwd
    mysql:x:89:89::/var/lib/mysql:/bin/false
    If not, try adding that line.
    Where I have to add that line?
    grep not shows anything.

    I downloaded the PKGBUILD and untarred the tarball. At the time of running makepkg -s the script tries to download trashfolder-1.5.22.diff0.gz... but it fails.
    I tried to download the patch directly from the url given but it seems that the site is no longer available!?
    Any comment would be appreciated.

    Thank you again. I eventually solved my problem changing the download protocol in PKGBUILD to http.
    http://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/dist … 2.diff0.gz

  • [SOLVED]Cannot install programs

    I really need help.
    I'm getting very upset with myself as I can't install any application. I've tried the Wiki and AUR with no luck.
    I'm using LXDE with PCManfm
    I need to install some kind of text editor and hopefully a torrent client.
    I don't know how to search the community repository effectively as the wiki has very little information on it. When I use pacman -Ss package, the result scrolls so fast, that I only get the last screenful.
    If I use <SHIFT>+<PageUp>, I can only go maybe 3 screens up before I run out of 'history'.
    Is there a way of pausing (waiting for a keypress) for listings like this (ls and dir as well)?
    I've tried AUR and downloaded rtorrent but it won't install no matter how I use pacman -U, either as root or user.
    How can I list and find applications that can be installed?
    What exact syntax should I use to install downloaded tar.gz files?
    Where do I get them from? Why is this so hard?

    Thanks for your reply(s).
    I'm NOT giving up and I will make a perfectly functional Archlinux system. That's why I chose it, to learn. Most other distros are 'set and forget' and that wasn't for me.
    Unfortunately, I'm learning about the filesystems, permissions, root/user and a pile of other stuff at the same time!
    Also there were lots of problems that I solved without resorting to this forum. I only used this when something obvious just didn't work.
    For example: Apps with ncurses base doesn't appear on a menu/desktop? That's a bit much to expect for a newbie to know.
    As for the Wiki - There should have been a link or a quick explanation of how to use nano to alter rc.conf. I'll do it if no-one else does.
    In case you're interested:
    + Setup static ip, gateway etc np! - although the worked example in the Beginner's Guide using 'banana' needs a newbie comment.
    * I struck the pacman update issue very early on that caused errors updating /extra. Fixed that.
    * Audio installed but no sound - Fixed by installing alsa-oss
    * Errors on X11 (font path issues) - still unresolved but I've a working Lxde which I stuffed up and currently looking for a fix. (minimized windows just 'disappear' ' - I need to revert the taskbar panel to default and the config file I found on Lxde's wiki, copied and pasted into global config just made me lose my folder icons.
    * No Cdrom in the filemanager? Fixed by installing HAL
    + Firefox 3.0.0.3-1 runs well
    + installed Java (Jre), Flash 10 and some extensions
    + Transmission-glt is working
    + Leafpad is working (and doesn't get installed with lxde which should be mentioned in the wiki)
    + OO3 downloaded last night (I've only got a 128k connection). It's very good.
    * I can get to root while the desktop is up through a terminal, but can't get a new workspace! Lxde's Alt-F1, F2, F3 happen to remap Archlinux Alt-Fn keys. <sigh>
    Frustrating bits:
    Did you know that you have to press 'Q' to exit a man page? I had to swap workspaces to finish the install. Then I searched the net until I found an old 'how to' on manpages!
    I'm operating the system OK, but I fear that I'm generally doing things the long way and the wrong way. I want to be able to fast-track that aspect somehow.
    To Do:
    I need to connect to my printer/scanner/server on a Windows XP network. Do I do this manually or via samba?
    Thanks

  • [solved] Cannot install Evince

    Hello!
    I am new to Archlinux and have just recently installed it. I have a problem with getting a pdf reader though. I am trying to install Evince and when I give the command pacman -Ss evince I get the following respond:
    extra/evince 2.28.1-1 (gnome-extra)
        Simply a document viewer
    No problem there. But when I try to install with pacman -S evince it plainly claims that it cannot find the file evince-2.28.1-1-i686.pkg.tar.gz from neither of the six repositories I use. But I wonder, since it is actually found with the -Ss flag it should be there, shouldn't it?

    pacman -Syy and try again? Also, you could try checking the mirrors...

  • [SOLVED] Cannot install StumpWM

    Hi,
    I'm trying to install StumpWM with the quicklisp method according to the guide at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Stumpwm However, each time I run the "make" command I get this kind of error messages from SBCL:
    Component STUMPWM not found
    Package STUMPWM does not exist
    It's really bizarre since I recently installed StumpWM on an Arch VM a few months ago and it worked fine.
    EDIT: I have found a solution on the issues page in the github repo of stumpwm https://github.com/sabetts/stumpwm/pull/26 Basically, I ran the command:
    env CL_SOURCE_REGISTRY=$PWD: sbcl --load make-image.lisp
    And it compiled stumpwm succesfully.

    Thank God, everything is fixed now:
    First, I deleted all these files, then i follows the following procedure
    1. For libgexiv2 file i upgraded 'xorg-server, xorg-xinit, xorg-utils, xorg-server-utils' from pacman
    # pacman -S xorg-server xorg-xinit xorg-utils xorg-server-utils
    2. For libraw file i upgraded 'libraw' from pacman
    # pacman -S libraw
    There will be some conflicting files
    After deleting some conflicting files it solves the problem and restore all the 'lib' file.

  • [SOLVED] Cannot install printers!

    Hello,
    I tried to install a printer in my laptop, but the Printers KDE Control Module says "Print service is unavailable: Bad file descriptor". I already installed cups service, but I'm still unable to add any printers.
    I'm running Arch in a Lenovo Thinkpad T420.
    What can I do?
    Last edited by eduardowoj (2014-02-14 12:27:20)

    Sorry all for the questions, I reinstalled cups and restarted the service, now it works like a charm. I'm marking this as solved.

  • [solved] Cannot install grub on Arch installation!

    I'm trying to install Arch on my new Laptop. Almost everything works fine until I come to the point where GRUB will be installed (to the MBR). Installaton fails and I'm told to have a look on tty5 for error messages. Doing so I read:
    grub> root (hd0,3)
    Filesystem type unknown, partition type 0x7
    grub> setup (hd0)
    Error 17: Cannot mount selected partition
    grub> quit
    AnyIdeas what I could do?
    By the way, I'm installing the 64Bit Version 0.8 on a computer that currently runs "bad, bad Vista". I'm going to kill Vista anyway, sooner or later, but I wanted to have a try on getting them both on one computer. Might that be a problem?

    The layout preset by the factory is the following:
    sda1: some sort of windows configuration backup blabla
    sda2: Vista System
    then there is roughly one gigabyte of free space then
    sda4: which was a preset ntfs partition for data
    I decided to turn 4 in arch root partition, leaving everyting else unchanged for an instance (no additional swap/boot partition).
    By the way, I tried to install Grub directly on partition 4 (it is an ext3 now), too afterwards, which failed with the same error.
