== Update with KNOPPIX (kpackage) never ends -- Date:  2008-04-25  Solved:  n/a  ==
+
 
+
* When I try to update or install software useing  the liveDVD of 5.3.1 KNOPPIX 2008-03-26 with
+
persistent /home and system area I cannot get it to work.
+
 
+
If I go to the 'Knoppix penguin' > "Utilities' > 'Manage Software in KNOPPIX (kpackage)' I get Synaptic instead.
+
 
+
After I update, mark, and tell it to update/install it never quits.  The little bar just goes back and forth
+
and no error message.  I let it go all night once.
+
 
+
So I tried  '''''aptitude''''' and got '''PYSOL''' installed. Using the ROOT shell:
+
 
+
<code><pre>
+
aptitude keep-all
+
aptitude update
+
aptitude search pysol
+
aptitude install pysol
+
aptitude install pysol-cardsets
+
aptitude install pysol-sound-server
+
aptitude install pysol-sounds
+
aptitude keep-all
+
exit
+
</pre></code>
+
 
+
The '''search''' is so you know the spelling, and the '''keep-all''' is for safety.
+
 
+
Note:  <code>aptitude help</code> does NOT show keep-all '''but'''
+
<code>info aptitude</code> ''and'' <code>man aptitude</code> both do.
+
 
+
So I use the liveDVD of 5.3.1 KNOPPIX 2008-03-26 with persistent /home and system area and boot from the DVD drive
+
''and'' I can update my software.  WOW.

1.  When I looked at the '''changelog''' today (2008.04.25) nothing was there about DVD 5.3.1
