I don't see anything wrong with that output. does the error change when you repeat the install?
somebody 2017-01-30 06:46:13
Im fixing that 6th hour sorry i think i posted everything

libapr1 example install a recent version of it
Vizva 2017-01-30 06:46:43
and then all the other
TomTomTosch 2017-01-30 06:47:24
the version of libapr1 already is the most recent.
Vizva 2017-01-30 06:47:36
so
TomTomTosch 2017-01-30 06:48:12
somebody: maybe aptitude has more useful output.

Hi All
grumpy 2017-01-30 06:51:58
anyone there who installed kodi in debian 8 recently?
jelly 2017-01-30 06:52:13
somebody: you have package versions from debian 8, like "perl" and "procps" and probably "dpkg", installed on your debian 7 system.
jelly 2017-01-30 06:52:39
downgrading dpkg and perl is going to be very hard to do
grumpy 2017-01-30 06:53:37
anyone who can give me stable kodi source.list source
jelly 2017-01-30 06:53:41
somebody: honestly at this point I'd advise going straight to debian 8 (jessie) or restoring a backup from before this happened.
jelly 2017-01-30 06:54:21
that said, I have my own wheezies to upgrade tonight.
Vizva 2017-01-30 06:54:41

Ill do that right now! lol

Selected packages intended for the Debian 9 "Stretch" release but recompiled for use with "Jessie" (8.x) can be found in the "jessie-backports" repository. Note that jessie-backports are on the regular mirror network, not on backports.debian.org. A suitable line for your sources.list is «deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ jessie-backports main».

grumpy 2017-01-30 07:04:31
awal1: if i add these two line will i able to install kodi's stable version
awal1 2017-01-30 07:05:03
log out from your desktop environement and select kodi in your login screen

awal1 2017-01-30 07:05:31
just do what I told you. later check what backports means in debian wiki
jelly 2017-01-30 07:07:07
you will be able to install debian's build of kodi. This may not be the exact stuff you expect it to be

I don't need no steenkin backups. However, I'm sure at least two other mes in parallel dimensions do, so I'm probably good to go. Hopefully the other mes in the other dimensions aren't counting on me to keep backups. Those idiots. there are two types of people in this world, those who take my advice regarding RAID and backups, and those who cry when they lose their data. See , , .
Vizva 2017-01-30 07:12:38
:P
Vizva 2017-01-30 07:13:26
i didnt know the output
Vizva 2017-01-30 07:13:31
but i was curious
tw 2017-01-30 07:15:07
semi-related, I've had a hw raid controller w/ battery backup eat a raid1 just last week. Fortunately, I did have backups.
Vizva 2017-01-30 07:16:11
eat - something like transformers?
jelly 2017-01-30 07:17:20
converge: no, dpkg and apt's state of the system is in /var/lib. Simplest thing to do is reinstall or restore from a previous backup.
converge 2017-01-30 07:17:40
jelly: tks
tw 2017-01-30 07:17:41
Vizva: It turned a consistent filesystem into garbage after a reboot, the on-disk raid descriptor got into a state where it consistently crashed the board firmware.
jelly 2017-01-30 07:18:12
converge: you can partially recover dpkg's state from files in /var/backups if you did not delete that as well
Vizva 2017-01-30 07:20:07
tw so it looks like that such raid controller is a nebulous thing
jelly 2017-01-30 07:20:57
tw: nice, did you report the bug to hw vendor
tw 2017-01-30 07:21:32
Vizva: not sure what you're asking, it was an lsi 9361-8i under contract with dell.
Vizva 2017-01-30 07:22:10
tw the performance is much better than things like lvm on common hardware?
tw 2017-01-30 07:22:58
jelly: I didn't. I get some IT support in house and had them handle it.
Vizva 2017-01-30 07:24:14
Ensure data protection for performance-hungry applications in mid-range server storage environments LOL
Vizva 2017-01-30 07:24:49
turn into a shredder
tw 2017-01-30 07:25:15
Vizva: probably not that much faster in this configuration. It does well enough for itself that we don't tweak it for performance.

anyone familiar with strongswan can help me with this: https://paste.gnome.org/pr8x5lqhv
jelly 2017-01-30 07:32:39
converge: you make sure to put latest version of /var/lib/dpkg/status and /var/lib/aptitude/pkgstates and /var/lib/apt/extended_states back and similar stuff back I guess
jelly 2017-01-30 07:32:45
s/you/just/
jelly 2017-01-30 07:34:20
converge: after putting those files back, you can reinstall dpkg package itself to bring back other files and directories, then apt and aptitude, then everything else from "dpkg -S /var/lib"
