I wish to change the directory from ~$ to ~/ in ubuntu.

I wonder how can those issue being solved.

thank you.

yum is for Redhat based distributions, you have no need to do anything abuot that, apt is your package management tool

unsolved issues

Hi,

I wish to run PHASE v2.0 on ubuntu. However, i get the error massage of "error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"

I try to install yum to solve this issue, again the error massage was "unable to locate package yum".

I wonder how can those issue being solved.

thank you.

Welcome to LQ.

libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 : Origins from gcc-2.95 ! Older than the first Ubuntu OS.

The package libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2_2.95.4-27_i386.deb can be used,
if your architecture is "i686" : $ uname -m

Download link http://archive.debian.org/debian-arc....4-27_i386.deb
1) $ cd Downloads/
2) $ sudo dpkg -i libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2_2.95.4-27_i386.deb

Yum : Please read the Ubuntu user manual. § "InstallingSoftware" :
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingSoftware
I.e. Ubuntu uses apt-get, not yum, for "command line package install".
And dpkg / gdebi / gdebi-kde / 'Ubuntu Softwarecenter' for downloaded packages.

Hi,

I download the link and type "sudo dpkg -i libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2_2.95.4-27_i386". Seems like it doesn't work. any idea?

below is the output.

root@u-Aspire-V5-471G:~# sudo dpkg -i libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2_2.95.4-27_i386.debdpkg: error processing libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2_2.95.4-27_i386.deb (--install):
cannot access archive: No such file or directory
Errors were encountered while processing:
libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2_2.95.4-27_i386.deb

Why on earth have you replaced your question with something else entirely? way to wreck a thread.

You either haven't downloaded the file at all, or you're not in the directory where you downloaded it to.

Please read post #3 :
First : change to the folder with the downloaded package.
If it isn't 'Downloads/' but 'Desktop/' : $ cd Desktop/
Next command is 'pwd', to make sure you are in the right folder : $ pwd
Then : $ ls
If the package libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2_2.95.4-27_i386.deb is listed you can do:
$ sudo dpkg -i libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2_2.95.4-27_i386.deb

P.S. : The original post #1 text is now added to post #3.
