Error in the APT repository
lazarus / 1-Linux

There is something wrong with file paths in Packages files for
lazarus-stable, so it's not possible to install anything (package
manager gets 404's).

lazarus-testing works fine (BTW I wonder what's the difference between
the two repos, they seem to contain the same Lazarus version).

Whose Apt repository?  There are several distros that use the deb
packages, plus a couple of repositories  that aren't part of any
particular distro.

I meant the official repo at www.hu.freepascal.org, by default. I
would certainly not complain here for a third party one

Hi!

We couldn't install Lazarus from repository, because there are wrong
filename entries in Packages file (stable).
(Filename: /home/fpchome/fpcfan/lazarus-www/dists/lazarus-
stable/universe/binary-i386/*.deb)

Thx

I have no idea where that absolute path came from. I regenerated the
Packages file. Please try again.

lazarus-testing now contains RC1 of Lazarus 0.9.30.2. Also a new
release will first be rolled out to to the testing repository and then
to the stable repository.

[How To] Add Lazarus testing repo in Ubuntu. Tested on Ubuntu 11.11
x86.

1. Add in "Update Manager - Settings - Other Software - Add"  this apt
line:
 
Code: [Select]deb http://www.hu.freepascal.org/lazarus/ lazarus-
testing universe
2. Remove from "Update Manager - Settings - Other Software" the last
line (Lazarus Source Code).
Close Update Manager.

3. In terminal:
  Code: [Select]sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install lazarus
That's it!

Hehe you forgot to import the GPG key first:

http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/How_to_setup_a_FPC_and_Lazarus_Ubun
tu_repository#Add_the_key

1°)
gpg --keyserver hkp://pgp.mit.edu:11371 --recv-keys 670C48C26A11800F

2°)
gpg --export 670C48C26A11800F | sudo apt-key add -

then the rest

----------------------------------------------------------------------

FabianWang, testing and stable use the same gpg key, so for switching
to testing, you don't need to import the keys.

@Vincent Snijders: thanks, the stable repository works fine now that
the paths are correct.

I am however unable to install 0.9.30.2 with the following dependency
errors on Ubuntu Lucid (I believe I had the same ones when I tried to
install 0.9.30.1 before):
Quotelazarus-ide-0.9.30.2:
 Depends: libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 (>=2.22.0) but it is not installable
  Depends: libgtk2.0-0 (>=2.24.0) but 2.20.1-0ubuntu2 is to be
installed

TurboRascal, please create a bug report.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
TurboRascal · 2011-10-08 13:32

No problem, I'll do it as soon I get to it...

----------------------------------------------------------------------
TurboRascal · 2011-12-16 22:01

It took me a while, but finally I did it here.

I hope someone else didn't report it in the meanwhile so I don't
double report it, I did a search and found nothing...
