I am trying to install iPDC on a Centos unix laptop.
I am getting a make error when I attempt to install the programme - I have attached a screenshot of my problem.
The command run is sudo make install and I am attempting to install as the root user.
Your installed GTK version is probably too old to support this software. GtkBuilder (a component within GTK) showed up at version 2.12. To find out what version you have, run pkg-config --modversion gtk+-2.0 at the command line. But that version has been around for quite some time. What version Centos are you running? I assume 5, which is quite old.
Upgrading GTK can be tricky, as most of your desktop software relies on it. If you're in for an adventure, the "easiest" would be to upgrade your Centos OS (to 6.x). You might be able to compile a more recent GTK from source and keep it separate from your system GTK, but that will take some patience.
It seems that GTK is not installed.
Try something like: yum install gtk2 or yum install gtk2-devel

I want to install Fluent Bit on macOS Catalina. All the resources available are for Ubuntu and Windows.
I followed this guide for Ubuntu [1].
Can anyone guide me on this?
[1] https://docs.fluentbit.io/manual/installation/linux/debian
I doubt that you can install those debian packages on macOS. But you can surely build from the source. There is a link on official documentation on how to build and install from source.
But from my experience you better get an understanding of possible errors that might come if you just try to download and install. Have a look at this post about pre-requisites. Once you have add those dependencies, surely you can build and installed on a macOS.
If you really want to install a package version on Mac, use it with homebrew.
You can install Fluent Bit on Mac with homebrew:
brew install fluent-bit
In my experience, on Mac it is very unstable and when I've attempted to do something simple like tailing logs you'll get lots of crashes.
Now a bit of background of my current setup:
I have Python3.3 running on Centos 6. I'm currently working on a web application using Flask that runs on Apache 2.2.15 with mode WSGI 4.5.3 and virtualenv 15.0.2.
pip --version pip 8.1.2 from /usr/local/bin/lib/python3.3/site-packages (python 3.3)
I have installed pysvn with pip and when I run pip show pysvn says
Location: /usr/local/bin/lib/python3.3/site-packages
755 permissions recursively set to /usr/local/bin/lib/python3.3/site-packages. And I passed --system-site-packages argument to virtualenv to use the global site packages.
Even when I try to import the package from python interpreter it does not work. So it is not specific to my virtualenv setup but rather a global problem.
I must mention that other packages installed with pip work perfectly fine (i.e. flask).
I've exhausted all other avenues before coming forward to you guys. Any suggestion would be highly appreciated as I ran out of ideas.
L.E.
I did manage to install it in the end. I'm not completly sure yet why and how but I presume is was compatibility issue.
First of all I have uninstalled svn 1.6+ and installed version 1.8.16 instead which seems to be tested against the latest two versions.
Second, I have uninstalled the troublesome pysvn instance and installed pysvn-1.8.0 workbench "sudo /var/www/FlaskApp/FlaskApp/flask/bin/pip install pysvn-1.8.0.tar.gz". In this case I have installed it my local environment. The 1.9.0 version of pysvn did not work.
L.L.E.
False positive, still doesn't work. I'm going to interact with svn via command line from my script.
L.L.L.E.
After installing svn 1.8.16 and svn-devel along with the rest of dependencies described in the readme file I have managed to successfully install it from the source fallowing the instructions.
Thanks for your help Barry.
pysvn is not available from PyPI because PyPI has no way to allow me to upload pysvn for each supported SVN version. Let alone deal with the issues of installing on a Linux distro given the choices for pysvn dependencies.
(APR, SVN, OpenSSL etc).
Fedora packages pysvn for the Fedora release.
I'm assuming that means it is on RHEL and therefore packaged by CentOS.
(But I do not have RHEL or CentOS to check this on)
If you find that a package is not available for your CentOs is not hard
to build pysvn on a linux distro. Get the source kit and follow the readme.html should get you going.

I use Debian sid (amd64), rolling updates as often as weekly. I downloaded recently the desktop version 0.99.902 of RStudio from their offical site and issued (as root, of course):
dpkg -i rstudio-0.99.902-amd64.deb
to no avail:
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of rstudio:
rstudio depends on libgstreamer0.10-0; however:
Package libgstreamer0.10-0 is not installed.
rstudio depends on libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-0; however:
Package libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-0 is not installed.
Newer versions (1.0-0) of these 2 packages are installed on the system, but those older ones (0.10-0) are not available anymore on the official Debian repos.
What should be done to have RStudio installed and fully operational under
Debian sid? I have, of course, installed R debs, from official Debian
repositories, without any issues...
Thanks for any help!
RStudio 1.0.153, released on July 20th 2017, depends on GStreamer 1.0 instead of GStreamer 0.10. It can be installed on modern Debian/Ubuntu without any additional setup, rendering this question and my answer obsolete.
To be more specific, there are two different DEB packages. One is aimed at Ubuntu 16.04 (or later) and Debian 9 (or later), comes only in 64-bit flavor and depends on newer GStreamer 1.0. Another package supports Ubuntu from 12.04 up to 15.10 and Debian 8 and it comes in both 32-bit and 64-bit flavors. This one still depends on older GStreamer 0.10.
Original answer remains below.
As of mid-2016, RStudio has hard dependency on GStreamer 0.10 and there is no way around it. You have to install libgstreamer0.10-0 and libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-0 to use RStudio.
These packages can be easily pulled in from Debian Jessie (stable). Just add Jessie repository to your sources.list and use apt-pinning to give it lower priority:
# /etc/apt/sources.list:
deb http://httpredir.debian.org/debian jessie main
# /etc/apt/preferences.d/01_release:
Package: *
Pin: release o=Debian,a=unstable
Pin-Priority: 600
Package: *
Pin: release o=Debian,n=jessie
Pin-Priority: 10
Then issue apt-get update and follow up with apt-get install libgstreamer0.10-0 libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-0.
If you have happened to put RStudio .deb file into local repository, then use apt-get install rstudio and GStreamer0.10 will be pulled in by dependency resolver. This has additional advantage of marking these libraries as automatically installed - they will be subject to automatic removal once RStudio drop them as dependency.
But will that break my system?
No.
Upstream developers designed GStreamer0.10 and GStreamer1.0 as co-installable and able to run at the same time (source). In fact, both were available in Debian repository since September 2012 up to April 2016.
In this pinning setup, packages from Jessie repository will be pulled in only when Jessie is the only provider of requested package. There is no risk of overwriting any package from unstable with older version from stable.
Why does RStudio depend on obsolete library?
Because GStreamer0.10 is the newest version available in both Debian Jessie and Ubuntu 12.04, two distributions they want to support.
RStudio will eventually have to upgrade their dependency to GStreamer1.0, as it will gradually become the only version available. I guess this change may be introduced in spring 2017. First, support for Ubuntu 12.04 will end in April. Rstudio is likely to bump base system requirement to 14.04 - one that has both GStreamer0.10 and 1.0. Second, Debian Stretch - that will have only GStreamer1.0 available - is expected to be released around that time.
I found Miroslaw's answer to be excellent. But, due to the passage of time you will need one more package: libssl1.0.0, so your setup apt-get will look like
apt-get install libgstreamer0.10-0 libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-0 libssl1.0.0
Download libgstreamer0.10-0 for your machine from any of the mirrors.
Open terminal in the directory where the file is downloaded.
Install it using the command, sudo dpkg -i file.deb. Example sudo dpkg -i libgstreamer0.10-0_0.10.36-1ubuntu1_amd64.deb.
Now open the directory where rstudio.deb is located and install it in the same way.
Download the libraries
http://ftp.br.debian.org/debian/pool/main/g/gstreamer0.10/libgstreamer0.10-0_0.10.36-1.5_amd64.deb
http://ftp.br.debian.org/debian/pool/main/g/gst-plugins-base0.10/libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-0_0.10.36-2_amd64.deb
Install them with gdebi or dpkg -i and that is it
I just made the switch from Windows to Ubuntu. In windows I had the possibility to change the R version used in Rstudio IDE with Tools -> Global options -> R versions.
This is not possible in Ubuntu in the same way, indeed the R versions menu does not appear in Ubuntu version of RStudio (why??). Could you help me in finding the good solution for switching among different, already installed versions of R, in Ubuntu?
The switch among different versions is important for satisfying packages modifications and making old scripts working.
I apologize was not a great question, but more of the kind: "please help me, I'm desperate, I've loose all my Windows habs!" ;)
So if anyone like me want to make the switch from Windows to Ubuntu here is how you can compile an older R version and switch between versions using RStudio. As already #Andrie commented out here are some informations, however not complete https://support.rstudio.com/hc/en-us/articles/200486138-Using-Different-Versions-of-R.
You already have the R version provided by Ubuntu Software Center or a more recent version but you need an older version to run an old important script?
First you need to compile the desired R version from source. In Ubuntu updating R to a newer version leave you with one only version (the updated ones) and not two the older and the new like in Win.
Let's go to the shell and install all you need to build R from source
sudo apt-get build-dep r-base
to install all libraries you will need for compiling. (look also here http://cran.us.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu/)
Download the version you need on CRAN
/bin/linux/ubuntu/MyUbuntu(trusty,precise,lucid) The archive you
need is something like:
r-base_TheVersionIWant.orig.tar.gz
Extract it in a directory (maybe ~/R)
then (in the shell) enter the top directory of the unpacked archive
then you can read the INSTALL file, and run configure with the --enable-R-shlib option (otherwise you will not be able once compiled to run it in RStudio)
./configure --enable-R-shlib && make
then following the INSTALL file
make check
make pdf
make info
If all was ok, you can tell R studio where find the bin/R file it needs
export RSTUDIO_WHICH_R= myPahtTo/bin/R
and fire rstudio with
rstudio
You have an RStudio version running the desired R Version.
When you will close the terminal and the rstudio session you will come back to the system default version of R. Then repeat just the last two lines to come back when you want.
My R version is 2.7.1 (on Debian) and some packages are asking for > 2.10. I cannot find updating instructions and I don't want to remove and reinstall as I have other things depending on R and I don't want to mess up. Is there an update procedure?
Closest thing to my problem is on this thread.
check out the instructions for installing from source. Its easy on a Linux box, and you can do the install in any directory you like, you dont even need superuser permissions. Once compiled you can even run R from that directory without messing up any system-installed R. As long as you give the full path to R's binary, or put the path to it in your PATH environment variable, when starting it it will work fine.
FYI
It seems that R on Debian with versions previous to 2.7.1 cannot be updated.
The current core runs from 2.7.1 up. The only way to do it is to remove the existing version.
As this was not straight forward I post it here. If you have Rapache or other things connecting to R disable them with dismode or related.
apt-get purge r-base r-base-dev
I had to do this as well
dpkg -P r-base-core
until this shows no more installed R packages
dpkg -l r-*
Then follow the instruction from http://cran.r-project.org/bin/linux/debian/, with the amendment that you should use deb instead of deb-src in /etc/apt/sources.list.
deb http://<favorite-cran-mirror>/bin/linux/debian lenny-cran/
Before installing run this and it should not say 2.7.1.
apt-cache policy r-base-dev
