Thank you Henrik, it seems to be working now after I did a manual install. I have been experiencing a considerate large number of errors with the installation; wget not working and being unable to use the Synaptic Package Manager to upgrade/install packages not already listed in the utility. I'll post my next error separately.

Thank you and Regards, Marjorie

Hi, I get the error when attempting to install hobbit 4.2.0, librrd0 1.0.49, RRDTool 1.2.15 on Ubuntu 7.04 :

$ sudo dpkg -i librrd0_1.0.49-1_i386.deb dpkg: regarding librrd0_1.0.49-1_i386.deb containing librrd0: librrd2-dev conflicts with librrd0 librrd0 (version 1.0.49-1) is to be installed.

It would probably be easier to build a Hobbit .deb package against the librrd2 library you have. First, install the "debhelper", "debmake" and "fakeroot" packages from Ubuntu. Then grab the Hobbit source archive, unpack it and do this:

cd hobbit-4.2.0 ./build/makedeb.sh 4.2.0-1

After a while you'll have a ./debian/pkg/hobbit_4.2.0-1_i386.deb package built for your librrd2 libraries.

Humm, I'm beginning to understand the process a bit better. I've started all over again and back to the first question.

Thank you! Marjorie

Hi, I get the following error:

sudo dpkg -i libc6-udeb_2.7-10_i386.udeb (Reading database ... 103759 files and directories currently installed.) Unpacking libc6-udeb (from libc6-udeb_2.7-10_i386.udeb) ... dpkg: error processing libc6-udeb_2.7-10_i386.udeb (--install): trying to overwrite `/lib/ld-linux.so.2', which is also in package libc6 Errors were encountered while processing: libc6-udeb_2.7-10_i386.udeb

I've a few questions: I'd problems installing any other version of the rrdtool than the one already in Synaptic (librrd2 1.2.15-0.3ubuntu) so I decided to look for a version of Hobbit that is compatible (Debian31-hobbit_4.2.0-1_i386.deb). I installed: libpng-1.2.26 and the Hobbit plugin in Ubundu.

1. When compiling the: Debian31-hobbit_4.2.0-1_i386.deb package, it requires the client installation, I'm installing Hobbit in the server, why would it require the client?

2. So I tried compiling the client and get other errors due to dependencies so I'm compiling each dependency manually, is there a better way like a bundle that includes all the dependencies?

3. If I need the client; would it cause damage to make the ld-linux.so.2 file updatable? Should I?

Thank you, Marjorie
