Unable to update old software or install new softwares


Hi There,

I need help when updating or installing any software these errors throw up

W: Failed to fetch http://packages.domain.com/dists/trusty/InRelease

W: Failed to fetch http://packages.domain.com/dists/trusty/Release.gpg Unable to connect to packages.domain.com:http:

W: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

also have error in fontconfig and dpkg where sometimes different error throws up like

E: fontconfig: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

Thanks for taking your time out to help.

Hi, Jayanthan, and welcome to LQ.

Could you please paste the output from the following command, in order to see which repositories you currently have set up:

inxi -r

That's unusual because http://packages.domain.com (which sounds like a placeholder or a template) isn't listed in your active repositories. Your repositories look ok to me at first glance.

How long has this error been going on, and did you make any changes or do anything noteworthy before the problem arose?

What I recommend that you do in the first instance is run:

gksudo software-sources to open Software Sources,

click on "Restore the default settings" at the bottom, close the window, and paste the output from:

sudo apt-get update

I had removed http://packages.domain.com just yesterday but I have been having this error for about 5 months and no I didn't change anything before that.

Ok, the problem appears to lie with the package fontconfig not having been fully installed. We'll try to rectify that.

First to see the package's status:

dpkg -s fontconfig

Also, as requested by the error message, in order to try to get more info on why installing fontconfig failed:

tail /var/log/fontconfig.log

Description: generic font configuration library - support binaries
Fontconfig is a font configuration and customization library, which
does not depend on the X Window System. It is designed to locate
fonts within the system and select them according to requirements
specified by applications.
.
Fontconfig is not a rasterization library, nor does it impose a
particular rasterization library on the application. The X-specific
library 'Xft' uses fontconfig along with freetype to specify and
rasterize fonts.
.
This package contains a program to maintain the fontconfig cache
(fc-cache), a sample program to list installed fonts (fc-list), a program
to test the matching rules (fc-match) and a program to dump the binary
cache files in string form (fc-cat). It no longer makes fonts managed by defoma
available to fontconfig applications.

It's stalling at the Adobe Korean font (hopefully not on any others too but we'll cross that bridge when we come to it).

What we can try to do is remove that font package for the moment and see if that makes a difference. I assume, based in India, that you're not using Korean on your machine.

sudo apt-get purge cmap-adobe-korea1

sudo apt-get install fontconfig

Thanks for the help hydrurga. Just wanted to know if problem has been identified exactly and I don't have any idea on inner working of linux though I have been using Linux for a few years now.

Well you're scooting on well ahead of me and my suggestions, so I'll bow out. Hopefully someone else will step up to the plate.

It's clear that you need to sort that font problem out before dpkg will work, so you should concentrate on that.

Trying to install new packages like libc-dev-bin libc6-dev and libexpat1-dev is only, in my opinion, going to muddy the waters further.
