Repository Wars.: msg#00422audio.planetccrma.general
Hi Fernando. Is there some sort of repository war going on akin to the "Bill Gates I own the software world" syndrome? I was looking for a step sequencer that I could use my extensive library of .wav files with and found one at the linux-sound.org site, which linked me to dag. As they had an apt url I thought I'd use it. Dl'd the soundtracker program after running apt-get update, all the planet stuff was there as well as dag's so everthing seemed ok. The soundtracker program wouldn't produce any sound so I thought I'd DL a MOD player just to check out the sounds. Ran apt-get update again. Now I get dag and about 7 other hits that I hadn't entered in the sources.list and the planet has been booted out. Looked in /etc/apt/ and there is a new sources.list.d with dag and all the other new ones in. The sources.list with the planet url's has vanished. I've just nuked the new sources.list.d and an apt.conf.d that has appeared and if thats the way that dag want to play the game tjhey can keep their repository. I've been very happy with planetccrma, and have just got to get the urls set back in to a sources.list to continue using it. Whats ironic is that dag say they are trying to get some sort of conformity between the different repositories so that there arn't conflicts, and the planet is mentioned amongst the others. To find that the planet has been booted off my machine is almost beyond belief. As you can probably gather I'm feeling just a tad annoyed at the moment. I'm not too clued up on reverting files to their previous state and have got to try and restore the planet's sources.list somehow. Nigel.
