32 bit libraries not detected by locate command - linux

So I've been trying to update my glass fish server, yet i need to get my 32bit libraries to work.
The issue is that I added the i386 architecture **dpkg --add-achitecture i386**, then i installed the packages I was asked after I updated "apt-get update". The libraries now reside in **/usr/lib/gnu-linux-i386**.
dpkg --add-architecture i386
apt-get update
apt-get install ....
But when I run **locate libjpeg.so** for example, i don't get the i386 libraries.

Run locate -u as root to update the cache after installing a package. locate doesn't scan the live filesystem each time you run the command, it uses a database that's updated every so often.

Linux Installation libX11-devel

I am trying to build QT4 (porting from Redhat 5 to 7 with an upgraded gcc compiler) in RedHat 7 and I was getting an error saying X11/Xlib.h can't be found. Anyways, after doing some research most people said to install libX11-devel to get those x11 libraries. Since I am using an offline machine I can't do "apt-get" type commands and have to manually install RPMs. So, I went to my RH-7 installation DVD and got "libX11-devel-1.6.3-3.el7.x86-64" (I have 64 bit OS) and tried to install using "yum install libX11-devel-1.6.3-3.el7.x86_64" and I am getting dependencies errors. It's saying
...Requires: pkgconfig(kbproto)
...Required: pkgconfig(xcb)
...Requires: pkgconfig(xproto)
...Requires: pkgconfig(xcb) >= 1.1.92
So, here are my questions.
1) when it says "pkgconfig(kbproto)", is it saying find the "kbproto....RPM" and do a "yum install". In my dvd I only have "xorg-x11-proto-devel-7.7.13.el7.noarch.rpm". Do I have to somehow find "xorg-x11-proto......x86_64.rpm" since it's a 64 bit machine?
2) Is there a difference between "yum install" and pkgconfig "install"? Are there any other installation variants in Linux?
3)For an offline machine, Is there anyway I can get all the dependencies and install everything at once ?
4) Why is it saying "xcb" requires twice. If I just get a xcb...rpm version above 1.1.92 can I just install it once?
Before actually answering the questions, I am going to suggest to see if you can get the latest version of the packages. The packages on the installation DVD may be really out of date and contain known vulernabilities, and other bugs. Can you use yumdownloader - in an online environment - to download the latest version onto a separate DVD and use that as the installation source? See https://access.redhat.com/solutions/10154 for more information.
To answer the questions themselves:
Requires: foo can refer to a package foo or a "feature" foo. pkgconfig(kbproto) is a "feature" (or virtual requires). You can use yum/rpm to see what provides this. On my Fedora box, for example, rpm -q --provides xorg-x11-proto-devel shows that this package indeed provides pkgconfig(kbproto).
As for x86_64 vs noarch, it doesn't matter. noarch packages work everywhere. Other packages are restricted to the platform. So x86_64 only works on intel/amd x86 64-bit machines. Installing noarch should be fine in your case. If you only had a i686 package, though, that wouldn't be sufficient. You would have to find a x86_64 or noarch package.
Yes, there's a big difference between yum and pkg-config. They do completely different things. One is a system tool for installing RPM packages. The other is a tool for developers for using the right headers and compiler flags. If your concern is finding/installing RPMs, do not use pkg-config directly.
Do you have access to an online machine that can access the RHEL 7 yum repositories? On that machine, do something like this:
mkdir rhel7-packages
cd rhel7-packages
yum provides '*/X11/Xlib.h' # make a note of the package that provides this file. it's libX11-devel on Fedora here
yumdownloader --resolve libX11-devel # download libX11-devel and all dependencies not installed on the system
Then copy/install the RPMs on the machine without internet access.
It's probably printing out xcb twice because it's two different requirements. The unversioned requirement will be satisfied if you install any verison of xcb. The versioned requirement will only be satisfied if you install 1.1.92. If you install 1.1.92, it will satisified both the requirements.
1.
You have to resolve the dependency on the system where you are building your package. This means you need to have those dependencies installed, inclusing libX11-devel. To do that, download the RPMs manually from EL7 repos to local disk and run this:
$ mkdir -p /tmp/libX11_dep_rpms && cd /tmp/libX11_dep_rpms
# Download all dependencies from here. All your packages should be available here:
# http://mirror.centos.org/centos-7/7/os/x86_64/Packages/
# Then install
$ yum localinstall *.rpm
# After this you should be able to build your qt4 package, provided all dependencies are resolved. Otherwise, repeat the procedure for all dependencies
# If you can't download packages, then you need to create a FULL DVD ISO that will contain all packages.
2.
pkgconfig ensures that a requirement is coming from a particular build that provides a particular version of the library. Here are some detail.
3.
Get the Everything ISO from EL7.
4.
This has to do with the pkgconfig and library versions.

Ubuntu Linux - Install Packages from Local Repository

We (my workplace) have an embedded product based around an NVIDIA TK1 which is running a custom build of Ubuntu for ARM. As part of the setup routine for our product, we have a custom script which downloads a large number of packages and archives from the web, extracts and installs them.
Ideally what we are looking to do is to pre-download these packages and archives into a "local" repository so that our product uses known versions which work with our application. Auto-updating of packages is disabled and the end product will rarely have access to the internet anyway, we just want to ensure that the versions of packages used remains the same for EVERY product shipped.
As an example, here are parts of the update script:
sudo apt-get install -y linux-firmware
sudo apt-get install -y '.*libxcb.*' libxrender-dev libxi-dev libfontconfig1-dev libudev-dev libx11-dev libx11-xcb-dev libext-dev libgstreamer0.10-dev libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-dev
sudo apt-get install -y gcc-4.9 g++-4.9
sudo apt-get install -y ros-indigo-desktop
# This one is shortened as its a long URL
wget cuda-repo-l4t-r21.1-6-5-prod_6.5-14_armhf.deb
sudo dpk -i cuda-repo-l4t-r21.1-6-5-prod_6.5-14_armhf.deb
Obviously, a large number of the packages will have a lot of dependencies so if there is a way of downloading ALL required packages and ALL required dependencies into a local package repository and change my scripts so they are installed from there, that would the ideal.
I'm unsure as which way would be the best way to approach this.
I have had suggestions of installing all packages onto a base product then "cloning" the file system and pushing it onto other modules however I don't really know the pros/cons of doing this.
UPDATE
Ok, so I've since found a large number of packages in the /var/cache/apt/archives/ folder which seem to all relate to what is installed from our script.
Is it feasible/safe to install ALL of these packages using sudo dpkg -i *.deb?
A good thing would be to use some kind of debootstrap to build a custom image and then flash it on the devices.
To cache the apt-get there is apt-cacher. I haven't tried, but its cache can be freezed.
For the local repositories - reprepro.

gcc-4.7 with Debian 8 Jessie

I use debian 8 Jessie, which has only gcc-4.9 available in the repositories. I tried to install gcc-4.7 in two ways without success.
First try
I tried installing gcc manually by downloading the file gcc-4.7.0.tar.gz
But when I install the dependency libraries (apt-get install Libmpc-dev libmpfr-dev libgmp-dev gcc-multilib)
the Debian installs, without asking gcc-4.9 and the compatible libraries with gcc-4.9.
I try run make for manual installation, but errors occur and it is not possible to install manually.
Second Try
I tried adding PPA repositories with gcc-4.7, in the file /etc/apt/sourc.list
Add-apt-repository ppa: ubuntu-toolchain-r / test as it teaches in this Link: https://askubuntu.com/questions/193513/problem-adding-a-ppa-to-install-gcc-4-7
When try apt-get install gcc-4.7 you are prompted to install several Dependencies ... when requesting to install the dependencies, the Below.
Root # vmhp110deb8: / home / user1 # apt-get install gcc-4.7 gcc-4.7-base
Reading package lists ... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information ... Done
Note, by selecting 'gcc-4.7-base' for regex 'gcc-4.7'
Package gcc-4.7-base is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
Is available from another source
E: Package 'gcc-4.7-base' has no installation candidate
Root # vmhp110deb8: / home / user1 # add-apt-repository ppa: ubuntu-toolchain-r / test
I tried to find a repository that has gcc-4.7-base, but then it asks Installation of other dependencies, and informs that it has not found
Libraries are Obsolete, etc.
Attempt not yet tested
Another idea that i had is download the Debian 7 Wheezy DVD (which I think Which has gcc-4.7 and all dependencies) and add as repository, For debian to find all dependencies of gcc.4.7 on DVD. But this idea i not have tested yet.
Could anyone help me with how I could install gcc 4.7 on debian 8?
As you can read here
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=765379
gcc-4.7 is not included in Debian Jessie
Maybe you can try this
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-toolchain-r/test
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install gcc-4.7
EDIT : You already tries this. I didnt notice.
Try this manual:

I hope this helps to you :)

System crash after oracle installation with yum

recently i tried to install oracle on my linux with apt (I never used yum before) using fast manual:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/articles/servers-storage-admin/ginnydbinstallonlinux-488779.html
And after command:
sudo yum install oracle-rdbms-server-11gR2-preinstall
I got error:

And something gone wrong because command like: ps, top are crashing

ps: relocation error: ps: symbol procps_number_version, version _3_2_5 not defined in file libproc-3.2.8.so with link time reference
login#Ass-K55VJ:/etc/yum/repos.d$ top
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
then I tryied to uninstall oracle and dependencies but after command:
sudo yum remove oracle-rdbms-server-11gR2-preinstall
There was a problem importing one of the Python modules
required to run yum. The error leading to this problem was:
No module named yum
Please install a package which provides this module, or
verify that the module is installed correctly.
It's possible that the above module doesn't match the
current version of Python, which is:
2.6.6 (r266:84292, Jul 10 2013, 06:42:56) [GCC 4.4.7 20120313 (Red Hat 4.4.7-3)]
If you cannot solve this problem yourself, please go to the yum faq at: http://wiki.linux.duke.edu/YumFaq
So it seems like yum install in my system new libraries but didn't link it correctly? I dont know what do in this moment because it seems like armagedon on my ubuntu...
Does this mean you're on ubuntu and tried to install rpm packages using yum? The manual you used is for Oracle Linux 6, why would you try that on ubuntu?
rpm packages are not compatible with debian based systems like ubuntu, which use deb packages. So you've probably screwed your system big time, overwriting important system libraries with incompatible ones.
If apt-get is still working, then you can try to reinstall (apt-get --reinstall install) the equivalent libraries to the ones mentioned in the install manual you linked to - naming isn't always the same for rpm and deb packages. dpkg -l should help you see which the correct installed libraries are. I'd start with the C libraries (libc) etc.
But if apt-get is screwed also, then you'd need to download the packages manually from an ubuntu mirror and install them using dpkg, but I think a reinstall (or restore from backup if you have one) would be the best option.

/usr/include/gnu/stubs.h:7:27: error: gnu/stubs-32.h: No such file or directory

I am trying to install roccc 2.0. I have installed required packages. Now while installing it, it is giving me this error:
/usr/include/gnu/stubs.h:7:27: error: gnu/stubs-32.h: No such file or directory
I searched for gnu/stubs-32.h and came to know, for Linux 64-bit its in glibc-devel and for Linux 32-bit, its in libc6-dev-i386.
I am using Linux 32-bit: i386 GNU/Linux, but couldn't get the lib required to resolve this error.
Can somebody please help me out?
If your Linux distro is Redhat based (Fedora/CentOS/RHEL):
yum install glibc-devel.i686
References
Original post answer solved this problem RHEL x64
Header file gnu/stubs-32.h is under /usr/include/i386-linux-gnu/ but the install script tries to find it in /usr/include/, try this quick fix to complete the installation:
sudo ln -s /usr/include/i386-linux-gnu/gnu/stubs-32.h /usr/include/gnu/stubs-32.h
After installation is finished, you can delete the link.
The package name keeps on changing, just do a
yum list glibc-devel
to find out current package for 32 bit. In my case it only listed 2 packages one for 32 bit and one for 64 bit. I just installed the 32 bit using
yum install glibc-devel.i686
Install 'glibc-devel' package, or whatever it called in your distro. You may also need to install ia32-libs lib32z1-dev lib32bz2-dev (names could be different in your distro).
The script is trying to get stubs-32.h from /usr/include/ where it is not found. To solve this you have to add an "include" path (by default it is /usr/include) like this:
C_INCLUDE_PATH=/usr/include/i386-linux-gnu/
export C_INCLUDE_PATH
OR
export C_INCLUDE_PATH=/usr/include/$(gcc -print-multiarch)
You can visit Error "gnu/stubs-32.h: No such file or directory" while compiling Nachos source code for additional reference.
If on a Red Hat distro such as Fedora/CentOS/RHEL you can do the following to find out what package provides a given file:
$ repoquery -qf */stubs-32.h
glibc-devel-0:2.17-260.el7.i686
And then install it:
$ sudo yum install -y glibc-devel-0:2.17-260.el7.i686
