Title: Install Errors, Pdaxii13
Post by: conundrum on July 27, 2007, 11:43:28 am

I've been trying to install rdesktop on my C3200 running "Alice" 5.4.6 through the package manager, and have ben getting the following errors:

Code: [Select]

zcat: //home/tmp/ipkg/rdesktop_1.5.0_armv5tel.ipk: not in gzip format
tar: ./control.tar.gz: Not found in archive
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors

Done.
Any ideas?  A known good package?

If you downloaded the file using a web browser it is possible that the browser automatically unzipped the ipk (which is just a tar.gz file).

Download and install were both done through the package manager using the feeds already configured.  I tried rdekstop 1.5 and 1.3.1(?) and neither worked.

Hi,

1.5.0 appears to be broken in the tyranozaurus feeds.

Try 1.3.1 from http://zaurus.spy.org/feeds/cacko/pdaXrom/1.1.0/beta3/feed (http://zaurus.spy.org/feeds/cacko/pdaXrom/1.1.0/beta3/feed)

The feed should be available in your /etc/ipkg.conf file

Just remember to comment out the tyranozaurus feeds first, and run

Code: [Select]

ipkg updatefirst

Works OK for me.

HTH,

Alistair

I downloaded rdesktop 1.3.1 from the above feed using Firefox (on the Z), and was able to install without any problems.  I was also able to successfully use my DD-WRT router for SSH tunneling.

While running install-fixbeta3.sh on my c750 w/beta1 and 15.1Mb free on /, I'm getting "out of space on device" error about half way through the install(/mnt/cf/custom> install-fixbeta3.sh / upgrade).  Partition has been resized to 57 during  install of beta1.
Any suggestions on how to complete the installation?

Thnx, Gorth
