I've got a small board called "Udoo" (http://www.udoo.org), which is running a Linux distribution based on Ubuntu 12.04.
For development I would like to install a recent version of Mono. Currently only 2.x is installed, which is pretty buggy.
I tried to follow the instructions on the Mono homepage (http://www.mono-project.com/docs/getting-started/install/linux/):
To enable installation on older Ubuntu releases such as Ubuntu 12.04
and Ubuntu 12.10 (and their derivatives), you will need to add a
second repository to your system, in addition to the generic
Debian/Ubuntu repository (if you don’t use sudo, be sure to switch to
root):
echo "deb http://download.mono-project.com/repo/debian
wheezy-libtiff-compat main" | sudo tee -a
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/mono-xamarin.list
Then I did "sudo apt-get update", to update the package lists.
This resulted in an error:
W: Failed to fetch
http://download.mono-project.com/repo/debian/dists/wheezy-libtiff-compat/InRelease
Unable to find expected entry 'main/binary-armhf/Packages' in Release
file (Wrong sources.list entry or malformed file)
E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old
ones used instead.
D'oh! I though this armhf-problem was solved months ago?
Can anyone give me a hint on how to get the latest version of Mono for ARM/Linux?

I am new to Linux,
I installed openSUSE Leap 15.4, and made the root directory ext4, I then followed these steps to install postgreSQL 13 on my system
1.sudo zypper ref && sudo zypper update
sudo zypper addrepo https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/zypp/repo/pgdg-sles-15-pg13.repo
But after this, I sudo zypper ref again and it shows an error saying:
Retrieving repository 'PostgreSQL 13 SLES 15.4 - x86_64' metadata .....................................[error]
Repository 'PostgreSQL 13 SLES 15.4 - x86_64' is invalid.
[pgdg-13|https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/zypp/13/suse/sles-15.4-x86_64] Valid metadata not found at specified URL
History:
- [pgdg-13|https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/zypp/13/suse/sles-15.4-x86_64] Repository type can't be determined.
what can I do to install postgreSQL
I can't say precisely why your zypper command failed, but it might have to do with the fact that the repositories from your link are intended for SUSE Linux Enterprise 15 SP4, not for openSUSE Leap 15.4, which is what you're using. So even if you did get these repositories to work, you might run into other compatibility problems later.
To install postgresql, there is always the option to search for your package on software.opensuse.org. (I strongly recommend you bookmark this page – it's the place to look for openSUSE packages.) For postgresql13, there is indeed an official experimental package available for openSUSE 15.4, namely here, which you can install via 1-Click-Install. However, the newer version postgresql14 is already out for quite a while, so I would only advise for using the older postgresql13 if you have a very strong reason to do so. The newer postgresql14 also has an official experimental package available for openSUSE 15.4, namely here; this is the one I would recommend currently.
first check if repo is enabled zypper repos -d
check /etc/zypp/repos.d/pgdg-13.repo file
If you open the added repo file all set sles. but i think the main problem is the type=rpm-md. In any case you dont need add third part repo to install postgress. the package is already in the main repos and is called postgresql-server.
So remove the https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/zypp/repo/pgdg-sles-15-pg13.repo to prevent any other issues and package conflicts
zypper lr # to list the repos and find the number for the `https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/zypp/repo/pgdg-sles-15-pg13.repo`
zypper rr <number>
Then just install postgresql-server
Btw when you refresh the packages you dont need to run update
I have successfully Git installed and running.
git --version
git version 2.6.1
I want to add gitk now. I entered the following command to install the gitk package, but it says no package available.
sudo yum install git-gui gitk
Returns
Loaded plugins: security
Setting up Install Process
No package git-gui available.
No package gitk available.
Nothing to do
After that, when I type gitk on the command line, it throws the following error.
Application initialization failed: Can't find a usable tk.tcl in the following directories:
/usr/lib/tcl8.4/tk8.4 /usr/lib/tk8.4 /local/p4clients/pkgbuild-9867w/workspace/build/TclTk/TclTk-8.4.199.32504/RHEL5_64/DEV.STD.PTHREAD/build/private/tcl/install/lib/tk8.4 /lib/tk8.4 /usr/library /library /tk8.4.12/library
This probably means that tk wasn't installed properly.
Error in startup script: invalid command name "tk_setPalette"
while executing
"tk_setPalette background $c selectColor $selc"
(procedure "setui" line 8)
invoked from within
"setui $uicolor"
Note: I tried apt-get, but it’s not working in the system. In a post I found that YUM is the correct one for my system.
Amazon Linux: apt-get: command not found
Since gitk is distributed with git, I would focus on installing the right version of Tcl/Tk.
The git-gui package (even though it is not directly applicable to your Linux distribution) would use a tk8.6 at least. It looks like your version of tk is a bit old.
yum install tk
I'm not sure which flavour you are trying to install gitk on. But the below is the method which I have used to install gitk on RHEL 7.
Get the endpoint release rpm from https://packages.endpoint.com/ as below
cd /tmp
wget https://packages.endpoint.com/rhel/7/os/x86_64/endpoint-repo-1.7-1.x86_64.rpm
yum localinstall endpoint-repo-1.7-1.x86_64.rpm
yum install git-gui gitk
Change the current directory to one of your projects where the .git directory is there and type gitk and Enter:
Note that the URL for the yum repository mentioned has moved to End Point Software Package Repositories
There are specific setup instructions for new Git on CentOS 7 at Installing Git 2 on CentOS 7.
I have installed the latest version of Linux Mint (17.1) in my computer. I installed R version 3.0.2. However, when I try to install the package xslsx, or dplyr, the system says that these packages are unavailable for the R version I have, and that the shall be installed on the R 3.1.2 version. 've been trying to upgrade R from all the possible means but I haven't had a sucessful result. Is anyone experiencing the same problem?
Follow the instructions posted here: How to upgrade R in ubuntu?
Note that Linux Mint 17.1 relies upon the Ubuntu Trusty package base, so you will need to use trusty/ as the Ubuntu version. Also, make sure to use the command sudo apt-get upgrade r-base at the end of the procedure, not just sudo apt-get upgrade, otherwise R won't be upgraded.
Your question may be considered off-topic, but it can be helpful to other Mint users.
Hope this will help, your question helped me alot... Note that Linux mint is based on ubuntu trusty...
sudo su
echo "deb http://www.stats.bris.ac.uk/R/bin/linux/ubuntu trusty/" >> /etc/apt/sources.list
apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys E084DAB9}
sudo apt-get upgrade r-base
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
Version specific installation using source code is much different than the installation using YUM or APT. It depends on OS version and the number of dependencies that need to be met for the installation to complete successfully. I have documented the installation of R 3.3.3 on SLES11 SP3 in http://hashprompt.blogspot.com/2017/06/installation-of-r-on-suse-linux.html Hope that it might help you install on linux systems.
I can't figure out how to install properly from the tar.gz file linked from the main R page. I download it, I run ./configure make, and it installs to my Downloads folder. Couldn't figure out how to install it properly elsewhere (must be easy, but I'm green on these things -- advice appreciated), and RStudio, e.g., doesn't know to look in my Downloads folder for the current version (also probably not the most robust approach).
Instead, I was able to grab the last r-base-dev .deb file from trusty here/xenial here, which handles installation automatically.
R versions 3.5+ have changed directories:
trusty
xenial
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

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.
I created native installers for my air application successfully under MacOS and Windows.
With Ubuntu 10 I am able to create a .deb package, but when I launch it opens the Ubuntu software center showing error:
Dependency is not satisfiable: adobeair (>= 2.5.0.0)
I thought native installer should be able to download the proper adobe air version if available (2.5.1 seems available as deb package). If I install air for linux 2.5.1 from adobe website my application launches fine.
Did anyone experience the same issue?
Thanks in advance for any help

Unfortunately, many years late "Adobe AIR for Linux is no longer supported." following what adobe page says. Using the "AIR archive" is possible to get unsupported versions, the 2.6.0 version is the most recent available. If you need to install a program that require a newer version of it, you might go to Virtual box with a Windows guest.
For version 2.6.0 the recommend steps for Ubuntu 16.10 are:
for 32bit machine
wget -O adobe-air_i386.deb http://drive.noobslab.com/data/apps/AdobeAir/adobeair_2.6.0.2_i386.deb
sudo dpkg -i adobe-air_i386.deb
sudo apt-get install -f && rm adobe-air_i386.deb
for 64bit machine
wget -O adobe-air_amd64.deb http://drive.noobslab.com/data/apps/AdobeAir/adobeair_2.6.0.2_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i adobe-air_amd64.deb
sudo apt-get install -f && rm adobe-air_amd64.deb
The recommend steps for Ubuntu 16.04/14.04/12.04/Linux Mint 18/17/13 (both extracted from here):
wget -O adobe-air.sh http://drive.noobslab.com/data/apps/AdobeAir/adobe-air.sh
chmod +x adobe-air.sh;sudo ./adobe-air.sh
What version of the adobeair package is available from the Ubuntu repositories?
A .deb is just an archive and the dependencies have to be available from the repositories the system is configured to use. It can't resolve the dependency by downloading it from some specific location you know of but the system is not configured to use.
If the needed version of the package is not available from the Ubuntu repositories then your only options are to reconfigure the system to use an additional repository that does have the needed dependency before you try to install your package, or download and manually install the dependency before you try to to install your package.
Try to install itdpkg -i --force-architecture adobeair.deb
