upower Wants an XML Parser


dougbmorris

Question

I get a compile problem when I try to update upower as part of my @world update. I removed the upower package to try and install it. I tried upower-pm-utils because of what I found in this forum that was recommended for a different upower problem. Didn't help this.

 

I want to show that I read the eselect news. There was the recent issue with in the news, but I can't read it now. My issue with upower is recent. I did a successful @world update one or two weeks ago. The news item is a month old, and I can't read it now for reasons I don't know.

See how it asks 'removed?' I don't remember removing any news, but then I might have neurotic alheimers from too much screen radiation.

 

BTW, I just used the BBCode for \[code\]. Where the heck is it with this new format? Does not show in the list for Special BBCode. Having to remove the double spacing that got added when I pasted outputs was a pain in the ass. Anyone know why I got double spacing? I manually removed it, at least I hope so.

 

Anyway, if the upower compile fail relates to upower loses hibernate, sorry for my lack of prior planning.

 

I seem to need upower for my xfce desktop:

Does it look like there is a missing dependency in an ebuild? I am not familiar with them. Anything I attempt to learn is days of frustration. My latest bouts with masochism are with snort. I really envy you 140+ IQ guys.

You have a few things going on here. You updated perl but failed to run "perl-cleaner --all" (or --reallyall). Until you do, upower isn't the only package that will fail to compile. Please take care of that first and then see how things go. On the note of upower, because of the work I have been doing in Funtoo, upower-pm-utils is no longer needed. You can simply build upower with the deprecated USE flag and achieve the same effect. This is done for you if you are using GNOME and have enabled the mix-in.

 

Secondly, net-analyzer/snortsam-2.70 does indeed fail to build, I will be taking care of this issue over at FL-1408.

Addendum: My attempt to install snortsam failed in a similar way, but not with a concern with an XML parser. This time is refers to pthread_create. I have no &@(%ing idea at this point.

 

Ideas?

Thanks, dantrell! Got both packages 'upower' and 'snortsam' to install.

 

I noticed when I installed snortsame that it instructed in the output that I set USE flag 'snortsam' on snort and recompile snort. I tried adding snortsam as a USE flag on snort in two ways:

1) New file /etc/portage/package.use.force with the single line: net-analyzer/snort snortsam

2) Added 'snortsam' flag to my USE variable in /etc/portage/make.config: USE="gtk snortsam" (not showing every flag)

After each change, I ran: emerge -uDN --with-bdeps=y --autounmask-write --ask @world

And each time I got no updates to do after all the dependencies were considered.

 

I notice that there is no snortsam flag listed in my file /usr/portage/profiles/use.desc . Perhaps I did not really see a message to apply a snortsam USE flag. I could be suffering from scroll blindness. After a week, I can run: 'snort -v --daq-dir /usr/lib64/daq -i wlan0 -A full'. Was hoping for a gui frontend to see the names of machines, etc. This is for a laptop NIDS.

 

If anyone has relative easy answers for how to use snort (I can't make much sense of the documentation for snort or snortsam), some sort of Captain Obvious information, it would be greatly appreciate. Otherwise, I guess I am just going to avoid coffee shop wifi like I have been. Anyone have thoughts on tripwire?
