/usr/bin/install is missing!

Well, I don't know how this one happened.  I was trying to "make install" a program I had just finished compiling, and then I get a message saying that /usr/bin/install is missing.  I checked /usr/bin for "install", and it isn't there, even though it was before.  How do I fix this problem?

Problem solved.  I made a link to /bin/install under /usr/bin, and it worked fine.
Now then, another question: why did Nodoka get installed under /usr/local/lib, rather than /usr/lib?
EDIT: Should have waited a moment before posting, I guess.  How do you install packages from AUR?  Or packages that you downloaded onto your system?

    What would cause this?  Old code?  Missing package?

    It was actually really old code, after a bit of successful this-should-probably-work script editing!  I created a package in the AUR called dasm, which is an assembler for the Atari 2600 among many other systems.

    I just ran into this same issue today while performing a full system upgrade. After some investigation, I came to agree with the OP that manually removing "/usr/bin/install" is the correct action to take.
    Prior to successfully executing the full system upgrade, I found that /usr/bin/install was a symlink to /bin/install. Using "pacman -Qo /bin/install", I found that the file /bin/install was owned by the coreutils 8.15-1 package. The symlink /usr/bin/install, however, was not owned by any package. The conflict arises because coreutils 8.16-2 wants to put the new install program in /usr/bin instead of its previous location under /bin.
    My memory is a bit fuzzy, but I seem to recall running into a problem installing some third party library that had /usr/bin/install hard-coded into its build script and claimed the file didn't exist. I may have manually created the symlink /usr/bin/install to /bin/install as a quick-fix, then forgot to remove it. In retrospect, I could have confirmed/refuted this hypothesis by comparing the time stamp on the symlink /usr/bin/install to /bin/install. If the symlink was created well after /bin/install, then I'm probably to blaim; on the other hand, if the symlink was created essentially at the time /bin/install was created, then most likely the creators of the coreutils package forgot to claim ownership of the symlink.

  • [Solved] Permissions problem /usr/bin/install: cannot create

    I've been looking at this for quite a while now and am running out of ideas/inspiration. Google isn't helping and after reading the docs on the wiki, I'm still none the wiser.

    What exactly have you been reading? Because if you take /usr/share/pacman/PKGBUILD.proto or read https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Creating_Packages, you can't get to what you have without some serious changes. It seems like you took some bad and old PKGBUILD (not PKGFILE) as a starting point instead of more official/up-to-date docs.
    At the very least you should read the section about the package() function.
    Edit: now you can copy/paste from the above reply, but try to understand how makepkg works. And since you passed the prefix to ./configure, it's unlikely that you'll need it again for the install step.

  • /usr/bin/perlbin/site missing

    I'm trying to figure out what package /usr/bin/perlbin/site provides. I'm trying to run something which needs something out of that directory, but I don't have it.

    Well, I don't find it either (I know you could query phrik - on IRC - for file ownership, and it refers to pkgfile now). But look what querying phrik about pkgfile says:
    23:23:29 Borromini !pkgfile
    23:23:31 phrik A tool to find out what package owns a file. Now available in community/pkgtools! http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=17941
    Don't ask me why they can't just make it say 'pkgfile is provided by the pkgtools package'...

    Thanx Chok. I know that. That's why I'm posting this. This app was make for debian so it's something to do with:
    install:    jconv fconv mkwavex
        /usr/bin/install -m 755 jconv $(PREFIX)/bin
        /usr/bin/install -m 755 fconv $(PREFIX)/bin
        /usr/bin/install -m 755 mkwavex $(PREFIX)/bin
    solved...I removed [/usr/bin/install -m 755] and replaced with [install]
    so it looked like this:
    install $(PREFIX)/bin

  • Missing /usr/bin/reboot

    i use GNOME and arch is up to date as it can be after doing a "pacman -Syu".
    when i use GNOME's shutdown-dialog to reboot the system, GNOME and X stop as they should, but then the system gives a message, "Command failed /usr/bin/reboot" and a short description that it wasn't found.
    the system then takes a short breath of about 5-10 seconds and reboots as it should.
    well, there is no /usr/bin/reboot on my harddisk, just /sbin/reboot...why?
    had the same thing some days ago on another system. was /usr/bin/reboot removed during one of the last updates and GNOME still tries to use it instead of /sbin/reboot?
    Thanks!
    Cheers!

    I had this problem as well and couldn't work out what I had done wrong - I hadn't been fiddling with any settings, honest.  Anyway, it first occurred last Saturday when I shutdown my PC after these updates:

    [2008-02-02 07:50] upgraded mpg123 (1.1.0-3 -> 1.2.0-1)
    and not only was there an error about the missing file but gdm-binary segfaulted.  Here's the entry from everything.log:
    Feb 2 09:53:50 gconfd (david-9810): Exiting
    Feb 2 09:53:50 darkstar gdm-binary[9706]: WARNING: Command failed /usr/bin/poweroff: Failed to execute child process "/usr/bin/poweroff" (No such file or directory)

    Thing is, looking back through older log entries, the warning about failing to execute /usr/bin/reboot or /usr/bin /poweroff is always there on reboot/shutdown but I had never before seen it echoed to the screen.  Anyway, I wasn't sure where to report the bug but made my own fix in the meantime by adding the following to the daemon section of /etc/gdm/defaults.conf
    RebootCommand=/sbin/reboot
    HaltCommand=/sbin/poweroff
    The other consequence of those Saturday updates, which hasn't gone away yet, is that the normal shutdown messages - stopping this, stopping that etc. - don't always appear.  It's not consistent but more often than not gnome will drop to a console with a login prompt and my PC will shutdown a few seconds later  If I don't start gnome and just run /sbin/poweroff from the console then the usual messages will appear.  As far as I can tell, however, my PC is shutting down properly despite the lack of messages.
    EDIT: And /sbin is in my path.
    EDIT 1: And the segfaults continue (I thought that they'd gone away):

    Should I be altering the makefile in anyway so that /usr/bin/ld can find -lfl ?

    @Allan: The selinux-flex package is needed as part of the installation process.
    Something tells me that this AUR package needs to be updated.
    But yes, a solution appears to be to remove selinux-flex and install flex and then compile checkpolicy.

  • Missing binary in /usr/bin/

    I am trying to get MySQL running on my computer, but the mysql binary is missing from my /usr/bin/ directory. I've tried installing from the standard repositories and compiling myself from ABS, but it never appears.
    Where can I get this file? Is this part of some other package? The pkgbuild file for MySQL doesn't seem to mention it.

    The binary I'm looking for is apparently owned by another package. How do I find out which one?
    I'd use pacman -Qo /usr/bin/mysql but it doesn't exist...

  • Missing /usr/bin/make

    (Oracle Standarad edition 8.1.5, RH6.1)
    When I ran the 8i patches I get a bunch of error messages in the log files saying that the command gmake is missing. This in turn creates other errors and causes the relinking to not work correctly. I have read the 8i patch FAQ, but unfortunately I don't have /usr/bin/make either. Any ideas?

    Then you have to install make from your RedHat CD, then if needed, do the symbolic link.

    There is a problem in that PKGBUILD. The make shouldn't be in the package function. It should be in the build function, just after qmake-qt4.
    And the qmake project hard codes the destination to /usr/sbin. In that case, the correct PKGBUILD should be:
    # qt4-fsarchiver by Francois Dupoux, Hihin Ruslan and Dieter Baum
    # PKGBUILD by hasufell, updated by DaarkWel

    Hi Guys,
    I installed jdk-6u1-linux-i586-rpm.bin and I am getting strange errors like this:

    /usr/bin/java: line 67: /tmp/javaf10273: Permission denied
    /usr/bin/java: line 67: /tmp/javaf10273: Success
    2. When I try to run an sh file I get this:

    Warning: -mx128m not understood. Ignoring.
    /usr/bin/java: line 67: /tmp/javae10796: Permission denied
    /usr/bin/java: line 67: /tmp/javae10796: Success
    I searched around and as I understand the linux package may have contained some older java version, and the comp is still trying to use that.
    But these notes did not say how to uninstall that older version, orr what to do.
    Can you please maybe point me somewhere?
    Thanks,
    Gyuri

    The RPM installer for the Sun JDK installs Java in /usr/java/jdk1.6.0_01. Just add /usr/java/jdk1.6.0_01/bin to your path before /usr/bin and it should be fine.
    Additionally, there are no -ms and -mx parameters, those should be -Xms and -Xmx.

    i installed sjs appserver8.12005q1 on solaris sun ray.while installing its asking me to install webserver 6.1sp4 also,and messeage queue.i installed the same.
    after done with the installation, i need to start admin console, for which i need to go to /usr/bin/mpsadmserver folder ,which i didnit find..............
    i even tried with the tool ASADMIN(by creating domains,starting them, but domain is not getting created, its saying no nspr4 in java.lib.path.........)..to start appserver console,
    can anyone guide me how to start admin console, as i was stuck up here only....i cannot go further...without starting servers...?
    Thanks

    I went over this link, but still have a similar problem -- different O/S, different scenario.
    I'm trying to install this on Fedora Core 4, installing from one of the big overall download bundles that also includes the Messaging server, Web server, etc.
    I installed, but chose to configure components manually after install. Now, I'm left with a /opt/sun/ directory, but the App server has not been installed.
    I can't find the installation script or executible to install this, nor can I find this in the documentation. Anyone have any clues on this?

  • "/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lgcrypt " having libgcrypt installed !?!

    Hello,
    I got this problem while trying to install "uswsusp" from AUR with yaourt, when it comes to compile :
    gcc -DS2RAM -D_GNU_SOURCE -march=i686 -mtune=generic -O2 -pipe -static -o resume resume-resume.o libsuspend-common.a -llzo2 -lgcrypt -lgpg-error
    /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lgcrypt
    But libgcrypt is already installed and the programs seems to find it :
    checking for libgcrypt... found
    I didn't managed to find anything across the web... Thanks in advance for any help !

    ankan has a solution in the AUR comments: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=14093

    "-static" disables linkning with dynamic libraries. So you have the package - but not the static libraries.
    Try rebuilding libgcrypt from abs and remove "--disable-static".
    It looks like you guys are new users, so you might not know how ABS works yet.  Take a look here for a quick walkthrough on ABS and makepkg.  You'll need to edit libgcrypt's stock PKGBUILD file and take out "--disable-static" before you run makepkg.
