MySQL dependency issue when installing SB Server on Ubuntu 9.10
Last modified: 2010-03-26 11:56:38 UTC
Ticket 091217-003955 Ubuntu 9.10 SB Server 7.4.1 Customer having problems installing SB Server 7.4.1 Ubuntu 9.10 ***From the customer*** The problem is that nowadays the current version of MySQL is 5.1! I have suggested that a slight change in the dependency list in the installation package is probably all that is needed. Here follows the result from the terminal screen when I attempted to install the package you suggested: --------------------------- PROMPT> sudo dpkg -i squeezeboxserver_7.4.1_all.deb (Reading database ... 43441 files and directories currently installed.) Unpacking squeezeboxserver (from squeezeboxserver_7.4.1_all.deb) ... dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of squeezeboxserver: squeezeboxserver depends on mysql-server-4.1 | mysql-server-5.0; however: Package mysql-server-4.1 is not installed. Package mysql-server-5.0 is not installed. dpkg: error processing squeezeboxserver (--install): dependency problems - leaving unconfigured Errors were encountered while processing: squeezeboxserver PROMPT> ***** Could be similar issue to Bug 14939 Thanks, LaRon
Created attachment 6410 [details] Patched file "control" I gave up and started to fix this myself. By changing the "control" file in the "control.tar.gz" archive in the latest debian package "squeezeboxserver_7.4.1_all.deb" I successfully installed the squeezeboxserver and can once again listen to music in my living room. I have also verified my patched package by installing it on a freshly installed Ubuntu 9.10 in a VMWare virtual machine. I there added a local directory to the "sources.list", copied my patched deb package and created a "Packages.gz" in that directory and then installed the package as I would if it had actually been present in your repository: sudo apt-get install squeezeboxserver It succeeded without any complaints or errors.
Duplicate of Bug 14905 -> also fixed in Rev. 29012
Does Matt Wise still work on our builds?
Still happens on: squeezeboxserver_7.5.0~30373_all.deb I did all the available updates in Kubuntu Will try to do the workaround so that testing can complete Should be re-opened as a show-stopper IMHO

The exact error I'm getting says: Cannot install 'mysql-server-5.0'
