Repo to download PSPP

[satimis]

Hi folks,


Debian Lenny


$ cat /etc/apt/sources.list

deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ lenny main
deb-src http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ lenny main

deb http://security.debian.org/ lenny/updates main contrib
deb-src http://security.debian.org/ lenny/updates main contrib

deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ lenny non-free
deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ lenny contrib

Please advise which repo provides PSPP? TIA

Debian -- Details of package pspp in lenny

Or are you just asking what section it's in? Which is main.

Hi reed9,


Thanks for your URL.


I'm going to install PSPP. I can't find it on Lenny with;

$ apt-cache policy pspp.


But on Ubuntu 8.04, host of this virtural machine, I found it with;

satimis@vz0:~$ apt-cache policy pspp

pspp:
  Installed: (none)
  Candidate: 0.4.0-7ubuntu3
  Version table:
     0.4.0-7ubuntu3 0
        500 http://hk.archive.ubuntu.com hardy/universe Packages

If it is NOT available on Lenny I'll download its package on PSPP website. I need the complete package and dependencies for installing/compiling the package. Thanks

I'm not familiar with the policy flag for apt-cache. I would say 1) have you updated your repos and 2) what happens if you just try to install it?

su -
apt-get update && apt-get install pspp

By the way, you don't need separate lines for non-free and contrib. It can be

deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ lenny main contrib non-free

Hi reed9,

I forgot running "apt-get update" after editng "sources.list". Now I found PSPP on repo. Thanks

By the way, you don't need separate lines for non-free and contrib. It can be

deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ lenny main contrib non-free

I suppose you meant combining following 2 lines;

deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ lenny non-free
deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ lenny contrib

as one line;

deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ lenny main contrib non-free

?

Thanks

I suppose you meant combining following 2 lines;
Code:

deb Index of /debian lenny non-free
deb Index of /debian lenny contrib

as one line;
Code:

deb Index of /debian lenny main contrib non-free

?

Yup, that's what I meant. Glad you got it working.
