I am writing bash script for vps server. I got this problem:
I need to install the build-essential package by script.
Command using in script:
eval 'apt-get install build-essential'
I coped with the problem (yes / no), found the -y switch for apt-get.
eval 'apt-get -y install build-essential'
But how to get around the second problem?:
(Enter the items or ranges you want to select, separated by spaces.)
Which services should be restarted?
I don't have to choose anything. A simple press of Enter would solve the problem!
So, any
echo, echo "\r", yes | apt-get -y install build-essential
does not working and my ideas are over!
I figured out how to solve this problem! The reboot service selection menu pops up on Ubuntu 22.04. I installed 20.04 and
and there is no menu. Might be useful for someone!

I'm trying to install the gitlab-ce package on a system running Ubuntu server 17.04. I followed the official installation instructions here.
First I ran:
sudo apt-get install curl openssh-server ca-certificates postfix
I already had all of those installed. Then I ran:
curl -sS https://packages.gitlab.com/install/repositories/gitlab/gitlab-ce/script.deb.sh | sudo bash
Which also worked fine. But when I try to run
sudo apt-get install gitlab-ce
I get the following error message:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package gitlab-ce
I know it's possible to install gitlab on Ubuntu server 17.04, since I had already done It on a previous installation. Unfortunately I installed the OS again from scratch and I can't remember how I had installed gitlab.
Thanks for any help in advance!
I gave up with the "full" automated script, as it doesn't appear to be working with 17.04... Anyway. I grabbed the latest package from https://packages.gitlab.com/gitlab/gitlab-ce/packages/ubuntu/xenial/gitlab-ce_9.3.0-ce.0_amd64.deb
curl -LJO https://packages.gitlab.com/gitlab/gitlab-ce/packages/ubuntu/xenial/gitlab-ce_9.3.0-ce.0_amd64.deb/download
Installed it with the package manager
sudo dpkg -i gitlab-ce_9.3.0-ce.0_amd64.deb
Then configured it with
sudo gitlab-ctl reconfigure
Then, point your web browser at your new gitlab install and you should be good to go...
Ubuntu 20.04.1
Incase anyone bumps back into this, while trying to gitlab on version 20.0.4 of ubuntu, life is much easier... and the instructions and automated script actually work. GitLab-CE installation instructions
on a fresh install of ubuntu: -
sudo apt install curl
curl -s https://packages.gitlab.com/install/repositories/gitlab/gitlab- ce/script.deb.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install gitlab-ce
done!
I was facing the same problem (Lubuntu 17.10), after searching the gitlab forums for 2 Hours, I found this thread.
So from what I have read: Gitlab-ce is not supported for zesty yet. Also the simple
sudo apt-get install gitlab
is a wrong prompt cause it installs a Ubuntu package created by a user named as "praveen" and It is not officially supported by Gitlab.
here is what I did To solve my problem:
sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list.d/gitlab_gitlab-ce.list.save
sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list.d/gitlab_gitlab-ce.list
replace "zesty" with "xenial" (These files are root access only)
sudo apt update
sudo apt-get install gitlab-ce
This worked for me.
I have spent my whole afternoon for solving this problem, I hope this solution works for you too.
Prost !
EDIT: corrected spelling
I had the same problem getting the install to run on 17.10. According to an issue on their site ( https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-runner/issues/2851 ), the artful packages are not being built.
I did the same this as #DevX, but just changed the parameters on their setup script.
Howler#GitLab:/tmp$ curl -LO https://packages.gitlab.com/install/repositories/gitlab/gitlab-ce/script.deb.sh
Howler#GitLab:/tmp$ sudo os=ubuntu dist=xenial bash ./script.deb.sh
Howler#GitLab:/tmp$ sudo apt-get install gitlab-ce
I've seen two ways to install packages,for example,squid on CentOS:
1.yum -y install squid
2.yum install squid
can anyone tell me what's the difference between them ?
also, I'm using CentOS v.6.6
If you supply -y it automatically chooses "yes" for future questions, i.e. are you sure you want to install squid? [Y/n]?.
It is handy if the installation takes a long time and asks multiple questions, which happens when you install multiple programs at once. In that case, having to type enter every now and again for the process to continue can be annoying.
For a full list of yum options and their definitions take a look at the help message for yum:
yum -h
With -y option, yum will install specified package along with its dependent package without asking for confirmation.
Without -y option, yum will show information related to specified package and its dependent packages and will ask for confirmation to install.
-y option will be useful if package is going to be installed through some scripts.
I am a newbie on openSUSE. I needed to get build-essential for the system but could not get it using sudo apt-get install build-essential or even by using sudo apt-get update and then following it with the previous code. I found a way to install most packages of build essential through sudo zypper install -t pattern devel_basis. But however, I am not able to obtain libframe package !! I can't directly download it because mine is an account on the office computer and I don't have the root access.
I am also attaching the screenshot of my terminal.. The error is towards the end.
Screenshot
zypper info -t pattern devel_basis to see what packages have the pattern
zypper install -t pattern devel_basis to install these packages
thanks to what-is-build-essentials-for-opensuse
I'm not sure if this requires root login or just maybe sudo privileges. These can be granted by ur system administrator. You may just need to ask for them.
You need to add the repository first before trying the zypper install
The command is
zypper ar -f URL alias
where
ar is short form of addrepo command
-f instruction to zypper to add autorefresh flag to newly added repo
URL is URL of the repo which you type in a browser to visit repo
in this case (itc): http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/42.2/repo/oss/
alias is name that is easy to remember. itc: openSUSE:Leap:42.2
so...
zypper ar -f http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/42.2/repo/oss/ openSUSE:Leap:42.2
I had a similar problem with ubuntu/debian command.
sudo apt-get build-essential libssl-devel
it turns out in Suse build-essential and libssl-devel would be devel_basis and openssl-devel respectively. to install I then searched on google for just openssl-devel (as it was all that I needed at that time), and followed the link from https://software.opensuse.org. Hope this helps
I'm trying to autoinstall libpam-ldap with a script, but its not working properly. As now I have
apt-get install libpam-ldap -y
That's alright, but then it goes into another window after answering Y to a continue question, and inside there I have to fill out IPs and other stuff. How can I skip through this? How can I echo "Enter" so I can skip through this?
Please try following
sudo DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get install -qq libpam-ldap
However using -qq is discouraged (check man apt-get) so try with '-q'
Anyways important for you is DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive
As the title is pretty clear (I hope so :) ), I'm looking for an easy way to install many softwares through apt-get command, I have created a shell script where I put all software I need but it's not very clean to do that I assume. The cleanest way is to tell apt-get to read into a file like the command pip.
Thanks in advance
Put the list of packages in a text file(say test.txt) with package names separated by spaces, like this -
python ruby foo bar
then you can just install with apt-get like this -
sudo apt-get install $(cat test.txt)
