i have an device running on Pure Linux, there is no Package installer installed on that, the only thing i have is SSH and therefore also an Terminal. Commands like apt-get, dpkg, yum dont work.
How do i install apt-get over SSH? I've saw some suggestions that use yum, make or dpkg to install apt-get, but since i've neither of them...
For debian based systems exists a tool called apt-offline. That's perfect in that scenario.

I have a linux server (completely new, web hosting, nothing is installed into it), and want to use a "wget" command. Currently, it is not found. Kernel version 2.6.32-896.16.1.lve1.4.54.el6.x86_64
I am completely new to linux, tried to solve this issue by myself, but couldn't do it. I log in into this linux server via PuTTY via my Windows OS laptop.
wget https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.6.6/Python-3.6.6.tgz
To get "wget" to work, I will need to install it. I guess I will need to install first "sudo" and/or "apt" and/or "apt-get". But couldn't do it. Please give me a short list of steps in which order to install them.
Given your kernel version, it looks like your Linux distribution is CentOS 6 or RHEL 6. Try installing wget with this command:
yum install wget
You must be root when you run this command.
Incase you using Debian version of Linux, use the following:
sudo apt-get install wget
From kernel version, it looks like you are using RHEL/Centos 6.
Please check -
https://centos.pkgs.org/6/centos-x86_64/wget-1.12-10.el6.x86_64.rpm.html
If the mentioned dependencies exist in your system, you can directly fire the rpm command
rpm command guide -
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/ro/Fedora_Draft_Documentation/0.1/html/RPM_Guide/ch02s03.html
If it doesn't work, you need to use yum command. (You need to configure yum command first, if not configured already)
yum install wget
To configure yum command in centos6 -

Note - you need to be root user for above activities.
Basically I'm trying to install libpq-dev but I've only found ways to do it in Linux. I've tried to install Cygwin but it takes quite a long time here at work, I currently don't have permanent internet connection at home, so I can't download at home.
Anyways, here is the Linux command that I'm trying to do in Windows:
sudo apt-get install -y libpq-dev
Please pardon my noobness in using the command-prompt.
There is a manual for this.
To install from package (recommended):
Microsoft Windows
Jason Erickson maintains a packaged Windows port of Psycopg with installation executable. Download. Double click. Done.
I am new to Linux (new as in installed it yesterday), I need it for my programming course in the university and I've been told to install specific versions of specific programs, but though I've used apt-get install to install them (having previously done apt-get update) they aren't in the correct version.
The programs that I need are make 4.0 and valgrind 3.10.1.
apt-get installs make 3.81 and valgrind 3.10.0.SVN.
I have tried typing "apt-get install make4.0" and "apt-get install valgrind10.3.1" to no avail. I have downloaded them from the internet and followed what instructions I could understand to install the newer versions but it keeps saying that I have the older ones. (I'm not sure if I can post direct links here, if I can let me know and I'll post where I got them from).
What have I been doing wrong? How can I fix this?
I am currently running Linux Mint.
Thanks for any answer in advance.
Due to a long-standing unresolved Debian bug report, GNU Make remained the age-old 3.81 in Debian for a very long time, and as a consequence, in Debian-based distributions such as Ubuntu and Mint.
The latest Debian release, Jessie, has upgraded to 4.0, so Debian-based distributions will have that upgrade. However, it is better to use 4.1.
This has been discussed many times on the GNU Make mailing list and elsewhere.
So to get a newer version, you must compile it from scratch.
This is easy:
Install the required packages (gcc, make and such).
Open up a shell (if you're using the GUI, a terminal window).
Type the following commands (or something equivalent, e.g. you can use curl instead of wget):
cd /tmp
wget http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/make/make-4.1.tar.gz
tar xvf make-4.1.tar.gz
cd make-4.1/
./configure
make
sudo make install
cd ..
rm -rf make-4.1.tar.gz make-4.1
Now, make 4.1 is in /usr/local/bin/make.
You can verify it is there with whereis make.
You can make it your default make by prefixing /usr/local/bin to your $PATH variable in your shell startup file; for instance, in .profile or .bashrc if you use the bash shell.
Don't try to install a self-compiled make (or anything else that doesn't come from the distribution's package manager) into /bin or /usr/bin; doing that will confuse your package manager.
I am trying to build db-mysql extension for NodeJS under Cygwin. The problem is, that it requires libmysql development libraries and include files. I have no idea how to install (and where to get) this stuff to work with Cygwin. Under Ubuntu i would write something like this:
sudo apt-get install libmysqlclient-dev
But this is not possible under Cygwin. Also there is no available libmysql package when I run Cygwin's setup.exe. Does anybody know how to solve this isue?
I have installed wamp under Windows which includes MySQL database. I would like to use databases from that installation under Cygwin, is that possible?
Thanks
It's available from Cygwin Ports, a large repository of additional Cygwin packages that can be installed through Cygwin's setup.exe.
I am trying to install emacs in offline computer.
but every time I try to build from the source and install it, it doesn't make it.
too complicated.
(terminal ./configure => error try with --without-makeinfo,
after a while, error try with --without-x,
after a while, error can't find emacs version...(and I also want to use X version))
so I want to download emacs binary file but I can't find for linux one.
where can I download pre-build binary emacs 23.3(lastest) for ubuntu?
I can download emacs 23.3 binary file for windows but not for ubuntu.
You could get the deb file directly from http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/e/emacs-snapshot/emacs-snapshot_20090909-1_amd64.deb and then try to install it using dpkg -i but there will probably be dependencies which you might miss. I'd suggest you try an apt-get install emacs-snapshot on your target machine. It will tell you all the packages it needs to fetch (along with URLs). Fetch all of them from a machine connected to the net and then dpkg -i those packages.
You can try the Ubuntu Emacs PPA here.
type in terminal
apt-get update
apt-get install emacs
for compile, are you download last version ? http://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/emacs/
you can download deb file here
