Hmmmmmm! Looks good on internet paper but........a snippet
:: Code :: Function: check_kernel_headers - Utility: End

While I don't use my 64 sid very often, it is up to date and operationally flawless as you can see! Back to top |

the command it's running is apt-get install ia32-libs
It checked apt-cache to locate the package, it's present, but cache is in your local hdd, not in the web. So my guess is that if the install failed, it's apt that failed, not sgfxi. Networking issue maybe? Before I spend any time on this, are you sure that the reported error isn't simply right? damentz tested this on a system and it all worked as expected. It wouldn't have tried to install anything than what I sent it to install, ia32-libs I am not familiar with the dpkg architecture handling re apt. Show me what apt says in console when you run: apt-get install -s ia32-libs run with -s, simulate, flag and paste output Back to top |

Just a note, as of this posting, ia32-libs exists in the amd64 repository and ia32-libs-i386 exists in the i386 repository (which you can get using multi arch):

:: Code :: Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Package ia32-libs is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source E: Package 'ia32-libs' has no installation candidate Gentleman, this is an amd64 computer with one 64 sid partition, updated continually without any problems for 5 years. I also have another 64 partition that I converted to muti-arch i386 a few years ago. I have no problem accomplishing changes. Was I wrong in ASSuming that the sgfxi update would just work without any intervention on my part? Back to top |

Just wanted to pipe in on this, I have several VSIDO users with the exact same issues sedonix posted about
I am having several work through with various attempts at solving and will post what is going on Back to top |

I'll have to pull this feature until we figure out what is the problem, what the difference is on the test systems, and why the simple command: apt-get install ia32-libs isn't working.
I don't have a convenient 64 bit install to test the ia32-libs thing on. I have zero experience with the add architecture for 64 bit because I don't run 64 bit on any of my local systems. Back to top |

Until this is figured out, I am putting this is a dev option, so to test it, do:
sgfxi -! 9 which will trigger the function. For all failiure reports, please also post: inxi -bxxx to avoid any confusion. Since there is no way this can happen and not happen, it means there is probably one more step that damentz did, who dev'ed it, that he forgot. Also make sure to post the relevant log file for sgfxi. This test should only trigger in the case there ia32-libs has an installation candidate, via apt-cache policy ias32-libs, so if apt is showing the installation candidate yet it won't install, that is very weird.

Well, it works now!

Please retest sgfxi now:
sgfxi -! 9 will override the temp dev flag. It appears that in unknown differences ia32-libs virtual package fails to pull in ia32-libs-i386 even though it's supposed to. To work around what appears to be an issue with apt packaging, I changed the test to run directly on ia32-libs-i386 instead of the virtual package. If you had a problem before, run sgfxi again with -! 9 flag, and see if it works. There is full logging on this now too, so please post /var/log/sgfxi/sgfxi.log as well so I can confirm that the stuff is working. Back to top |

sedonix, you ran it before I added the fixes, so the problem really appears to be something in your local version of apt db, however, the latest fix should have handled it. It's clearly not working by your log.
:: Code ::
Function: update_package_manager - Utility: Start Args: update Update apt-get successful Function: update_package_manager - Utility: End Install command for apt-get: install - Extra args: ERROR: (200) The package: ia32-libs failed to install, please check apt for any problems. however now it may work, I just uploaded it, it's version 4.21.02 To be clear, only the current new version of sgfxi should work. Once it's confirmed working, that ia32-libs-i386 is actually installing, will I remove the -! 9 dev flag. Back to top |
