Can someone guide me through a set procedure on installing and using google sandbox2 API on Ubuntu 16.04 .
The documentation on google developers is not helping me.
One of the developers of Sandboxed API here. Can you be a bit more specific on what you tried and what you would like to know?
As for your setup, we recommend you use a newer version of Ubuntu, such as 19.04 or a recent Debian.
Finally, if you want to add sandboxing to an existing open source project, you may be eligible for the Patch Rewards Program, if upstream accepts your changes (Google "Patch Rewards Program").

Hi we are currently using Quickbuild for our Automation Jobs,apparently as we tried to deploy some changes we are unable to proceed due to this:
Does anyone know how to fix this? I have tried updating our git version to the latest, and I have also tried to install a cygwin latest version, none of this has solved our problem.
https://www.cygwin.com/faq.html#faq.using.fixing-find_fast_cwd-warnings
4.45.
How do I fix find_fast_cwd warnings?
Older Cygwin releases asked users to report problems to the mailing list with the message:
find_fast_cwd: WARNING: Couldn't compute FAST_CWD pointer. Please report
this problem to the public mailing list cygwin#cygwin.com
Recent Cygwin releases changed this to the message:
This typically occurs if you're using an older Cygwin version on a newer Windows.
Please update to the latest available Cygwin version from https://cygwin.com/.
If the problem persists, please see https://cygwin.com/problems.html.
This is not serious, just a warning that Cygwin may not always be able to exactly emulate all aspects of Unix current directory handling under your Windows release.
Unfortunately some projects and products still distribute older Cygwin releases which may not fully support newer Windows releases, instead of installing the current release from the Cygwin project. They also may not provide any obvious way to keep the Cygwin packages their application uses up to date with fixes for security issues and upgrades.
The solution is simply downloading and running the Cygwin Setup program, following the instructions in the Internet Setup section of ``Setting Up Cygwin'' in the Cygwin User's Guide.
Please exit from all applications before running the Cygwin Setup program. When running Setup, you should not change most of the values presented, just select the Next button in most cases, as you already have a Cygwin release installed, and only want to upgrade your current installation. You should make your own selection if the internet connection to your system requires a proxy; and you must always pick an up to date Cygwin download (mirror) site, preferably the site nearest to your system for faster downloads, as shown, with more details to help you choose, on the Mirror Sites web page.
The Cygwin Setup program will download and apply upgrades to all packages required for Cygwin itself and installed applications. Any problems with applying updates, or the application after updates, should be reported to the project or product supplier for remedial action.
As Cygwin is a volunteer project, unable to provide support for older releases installed by projects or products, it would be helpful to let other users know what project or product you installed, in a quick email.
Can checkov-satic code analysis for infrastructure as a tool can be installed or not?
I checked the documentation. It has mentioned the steps for Unix, but not for windows
you should be able to install it on windows or use the docker packing to gain similar results.
If you have any issue, feel free to reach out at https://slack.bridgecrew.io/

I have developed (free) software, more precisely, a development environment or a code editor called "Lines". On the web I have set up installation packages for Windows and Linux, but I would like the application to be available as an "apt" package on linux systems. The easiest way to do this (and not get tired) is?
By the way, software and installation packages are available at https://creatixbih.com/lines/
Thank you.
Since I'm not really a "linux" guru, I've been trying to find an automated solution.
First you need to create a DEB package, you can read more about it here.
The easiest way to get your package into huge repositories would be to submit your package to Debian, where Ubuntu is based off. A detailed explanation can be found here.
Another good method would be to host your OWN apt repository which is being explained here
Hi I have a Windows OS and I currently have the most up to date version of Node.JS running (which includes npm). I would really like build and compile 0.1.91 which can be found here http://nodejs.org/dist/. I'm extremely new to this and any all help would be greatly appreciated.
Node first supported native Windows builds in the .5 dev branch. To make it happen, they had to rewrite many internals from scratch – the platform compatibility layer now exists as libuv.
Before that, you had to build Node under Cygwin. I remember building .4 in Windows with Cygwin, and it was a complete pain. The GitHub wiki has since pulled down all Cygwin-related information since it's no longer relevant. (If you really want to see how Cygwin builds were done, I suppose you could clone the wiki's repo and go digging around. The information isn't available online anymore.)
Support for building on Windows with Cygwin wasn't added until 0.1.98, and support was dropped with .6. So, the specific version you're trying to build won't work.
At any rate, it's a very bad idea to run very old software, especially something like Node 0.1, which was still very early in its development. It's nearly guaranteed to be full of security holes.
I have about a few problems with a new install of the Qt SDK. I probably only need advice, but specific answers are also welcome. Before I begin a mini-story, I am running RHEL5 on academic license under VirtualBox on OSX 10.6. Using Qt version 4.5.3. This is my situation...
1.) I couldn't compile because g++ wasn't found. I fixed this by creating a link: g++ -> g++34. This allowed me to compile but it generated more errors at link-time. I had installed the framework in my home directory unintentionally so I uninstalled/reinstalled the entire SDK to /usr/local/qt.
2.) At this point I could compile but the linker complained about a missing freetype package. I had that already installed but wasn't sure why it couldn't be found. So I installed a few packages that I thought might be missing like libqt4-devel and libqt4-devel-debug. I also installed a few other general programming packages for later use.
3.) Somehwere in this process I can no longer run qmake. I ran it before and I have it installed at /usr/local/qt/qt/bin/qmake. I could create a link to it (though I shouldn't have to OR I could ensure that the location was in the PATH var). However, at this point Qt Creator says there's no Qt installation found. I re-pointed it to the installation location (using Tools/Options) but it still won't run qmake or anything else for that matter...
I only need this linux install to compile and test my Qt projects which I am developing in OSX. So my question is, should I just wipe this RHEL install and start over? And if so, should I use something else like Ubuntu? I am having plenty of hassles that I don't want to deal with as is. Note, this project will require good OpenGL support.
Is there a particular reason that you don't simply use the Qt package that's part of RHEL?
If for some reason you need to build your own, you can get all of the build dependancies with:
$ yum install yum-utils
$ yum-builddep <whatever the qt package's name is>
#scotchi is right, and you should try to use the Qt package that comes with your system unless you need a very different version. I don't know what version of Qt comes with RHEL but if its not up-to-date enough for you (and it might not be, see below) then you could consider changing OS versions. I would only do this after trying his suggestion though, because you may be able to get things working without the hassle of a full OS install.
Now, as to why you might want to switch: RHEL is, as its name ("Enterprise Linux") indicates aimed at companies who want to run servers, or large deployments of desktops. It emphasizes stability and reliability over being cutting edge. Fairly often the version of the compiler and development libraries lag a little behind the curve. This is what their clients want: a stable platform they can develop against and run programs on for a period of time, not constantly needing to keep up with the latest changes, and thoroughly tested. But for people doing development at home it may not be necessary to stay that conservative. I don't know if this is for work, school or personal programming, but it sounds to me like you should move to one of the more desktop-oriented distros. Ubuntu is great, as is Fedora. If you prefer a RHEL-like environment, then choose Fedora.
