[64studio-devel] update 2 upgrade lenny i386

[dave]

Hi all,

http://lists.64studio.com/pipermail/64studio-devel/2008-May/005693.html

1: synaptic
This is with a clean install...2.1rc..upgraded to 64studio testing.
If you upgrade 2.1rc, you will get a clean upgrade, wine will need 
re-upgrade on completion.
You may not have a clean install? and this can make a big difference.
Up to the release below the etch/builds upgraded the same as the 2.1rc.
I have followed the method half a dozen times now, The first try gave 
problems,
The rest were fine, You have to follow Free's instruction to the letter.
If you dont remove non-free sources / 3rd party repositories
The upgrade gets more difficult.

2: synaptic
This release is the move back to Audacity 1.3.3-1
(64studio_master_i386.iso 28-May-2008 14:46 798M)
I don't know why but the upgrade changed with this etch/build.
(libpam0g) gave errors. It stops synaptic, and you can't continue.
I closed synaptic, opened a terminal and ran
#apt-get -f install
and then restarted synaptic to complete the upgrade. which it did.

Sources used for upgrade:

deb http://apt.64studio.com/64studio/stable/ 64studio main
deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ etch main
deb http://apt.64studio.com/64studio/testing/ 64studio main
deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ lenny main

Once the upgrade is complete.. these had been removed so:

Re-install metacity and gnome-core while still in synaptic

Re-enable etch and lenny "security sources"...

so I went to went to a terminal apt-get update/upgrade confirmed all was ok.

# edit /etc/security/limits.conf (add these to end of file).

* - rtprio 99
* - nice -10
* - memlock 4000000

I have left sound config Envy24control and qjackctl at 44100kHz, (I 
normally use 48000kHz)
after a restart qjackctl starts and runs fine.

$ dpkg -l |grep "jackd"

jackd = 0.109.2-3

note:
Ardour has been removed, I can get this from sid, or wait for Free's 
lenny backport.
I get errors with qsynth as the upgrade completes but the errors don't 
stop future updates/upgrades.

.....Day 2.....
* Notes i386 apt-get lenny

Using synaptic to upgrade etch/builds to lenny changed with this release
(64studio_master_i386.iso 28-May-2008 14:46 798M) (audacity 1.3.3-1~etch1).
*(libpam0g)* gave errors. I closed synaptic, opened a terminal and ran
#apt-get -f install
and then restarted synaptic to complete the upgrade.
