Hmm, it should not matter at all, except if you uninstalled some stuff what we replace.

I forgot that cairomm-1.10.0-i686-1dl.txz also was (missing)

yep, I saw you put it there. if files were declared as missing or bad you should have in /var/cache/dropline-installer dir a file named bad_files, if you edit it you should see all the bad or corrupt or missing files in there. Many times this can be cause by a server problem or bad internet connection. If installer stops is worth to try it again, so it tries to select another mirror.

No, I have not uninstalled anything!

After I installed orca, speex and cairomm I re-run the installer and it was only complaint for speex and cairomm, and I checked the md5sum and are diferent at the list files?

I used dropline-installer-3.8_r5016-i686-1dl.txz

Thanks!

Try to see if you have those packages in /var/cache/dropline-installer/ if yes, try to delete them and it should re-download them. I will check now if they have maybe a wrong md5sum in the index file. This is what the installer looks at.

jcamacho555 · 09-17-2013, 08:53 PM

Ok! I am going to re-run the installer!

saxa · 09-17-2013, 09:02 PM

ok, orca is missing , cairo and speex have a wrong md5sum, you should find the correct files in the 3.8/i686 dir now, and they have been fixed in the index file too. Please try to re-run the installer and see if it is fixed now ?

Ok I understand what is on, I have to bump up the build numbers as the packages I have in 3.8 version are used from the 3.6 one but in some way they differ, now the installer sees them at 2 locations so they pick up the first one at random and then it downloads the wrong ones.

jcamacho555 · 09-17-2013, 10:43 PM

Ok saxa, it took me some time!

Now the dropline-installer is working well!

Thank you!

I will try it sometime and them I will tell you what is happening!

Ok, waiting for your comments. Thanks for using it.

This one is now already in the installer channel, so if you re-run dropline-installer you should get it. Please let me know if it works for you.

SAXA , you have a big bug fix version here

saxa · 09-18-2013, 09:19 AM

gmgf, this one does require python3 and we do not have included python3 in 3.8. Thanks for the heads-up.

gmgf · 09-18-2013, 09:23 AM

OK. sorry for the noise
