perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

["Uhl, George D. (GSFC-423.0)[SGT INC]" <>]

Antoine,

I had done the 'apt-get update’ previously but not an 'apt-get upgrade’.
I did both and during the upgrade process for both LivaX hosts I received
the following error:

Rebuilding /usr/share/applications/bamf.index...
Processing triggers for gnome-menus ...
Processing triggers for hicolor-icon-theme ...
Processing triggers for libglib2.0-0 ...
Errors were encountered while processing:
 /var/cache/apt/archives/owamp-server_3.5.0-1~bpo70+1_amd64.deb
 /var/cache/apt/archives/libperfsonar-sls-perl_3.5.1.1-1~bpo70+1_all.deb
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)


I include the output of apt-cache showpkg perfsonar-testpoint
perfsonar-regulartesting libperfsonar-regulartesting-perl below.  It looks
like some but not all the pS packages were upgraded.  I’m new to
Debian-based linux which explains why I’m having difficulty with the 3.5.1
to 3.5.1-1 upgrade.

Thanks for your help!
-George
