Installing apt on c2t3 - rpm conflict

Pacifix · 05-06-2004, 11:07 PM

I've got my new test 3 system, which I'm very happy with except that I can't get apt installed. I've downloaded the three files suggested on on the thread "apt for fedora 2 t3" by geesh (can't post url what with my newbie-ness) (synaptic-0.48.1-0.fdr.3.1.90, apt-0.5.15cnc6-0.fdr.11.1.91, apt-devel-0.5.15cnc6-0.fdr.11.1.91) but when I try to install them via rpm -ivh *.rpm, I get the following:

Code:

warning: apt-0.5.15cnc6-0.fdr.11.1.91.i386.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 8df56d05

And I'm afraid I'm too much of a newbie to know where to go next. I added a few repositories to my yum.conf the first few days, but I've since reverted back to the original, vanilla yum.conf (hoping to fix this). Could someone tell me what to do next? Thanks,

It gets a little bit complicated when you install packages from third person repositories. In order to install apt, you have to remove atrpms-package-config-58-1.rhfc1.at

cool. how do I do that? thanks/

jon-do · 05-06-2004, 11:26 PM

Code:

rpm -e atrpms-package-config

Pacifix · 05-06-2004, 11:37 PM

Code:

error: Failed dependencies:
        /etc/yum.conf is needed by (installed) yum-2.0.7-0.20040416_32.rhfc1.at

? sorry for my cluelessness...

how many packages have you donwloaded from atrpms and what install package did you use?

Pacifix · 05-07-2004, 12:59 AM

Code:

rpmquery --whatrequires atrpms
make-3.80-4.rhfc1.at
tetex-2.0.2-34.rhfc1.at
diffstat-1.34-0_5.rhfc1.at

I've only used yum so far. When I tried to install apt from the dag repository, I ran into depedencies problems and so just went with yum.

Since you have yum do

Code:

yum remove atrpms

it will list other dependencies of atrpms that will also be remove, write those dependencies down and yes to remove with all its dependecies.

Now try to install apt afterwards
