Re: MX Package Installer vs Synaptic
PM says: 1) grey them out, 2) add sentence on top: "Items greyed out have already been installed"

Re: MX Package Installer vs Synaptic
Here's the last build please give it a try and let me know if you like the changes: https://github.com/AdrianTM/mx-packagei ... 1_i386.deb
A bit different issue, I've noticed that Opera doesn't install, I tried even from command line and I get this:
Although I added opera security key... mx-packageinstaller also runs "wget -O - http://deb.opera.com/archive.key | apt-key add -"
Any ideas, suggestions?

Do you want to ignore this warning and proceed anyway?
Any ideas, suggestions?
Re: MX Package Installer vs Synaptic
If you go here: http://deb.opera.com/ they say there are two different keys, a "2013" key and a "2013b" key. The wget command grabs the "2013" key.Adrian wrote:Here's the last build please give it a try and let me know if you like the changes: https://github.com/AdrianTM/mx-packagei ... 1_i386.deb

There was also this:
I'm guessing they've switched.For now, the "2013" key above is the one we use, but we may be switching to this one soon: ....
Re: MX Package Installer vs Synaptic
Thanks, I agree on greying out and adding text to the top stating that greyed out items are already installed.

Re: MX Package Installer vs Synaptic
How can we use wget to get that one?
Re: MX Package Installer vs Synaptic
This seems to work:
Code: Select all
wget -qO- http://deb.opera.com/ | tac | grep BEGIN -B999 -m1 | tac | grep END -B999 | apt-key add -
It adds some Opera keys, the first 3 are expired but the last one is good until July 3rd 2015root@mx1:/home/kent# wget -qO- http://deb.opera.com/ | tac | grep BEGIN -B999 -m1 | tac | grep END -B999 | apt-key add -
OK
If they make changes to the html code at the http://deb.opera.com page, you might need to change the wget command again.root@mx1:/home/kent# apt-key list|grep -i opera -A2 -B2

Re: MX Package Installer vs Synaptic
I'm a bit uncomfortable to scrub the page like that, it can change at any moment.
In any case here's the updated package:
https://github.com/AdrianTM/mx-packagei ... 2_i386.deb
Please test it.

Re: MX Package Installer vs Synaptic
Opera installs without any errors.
To test the Opera key download, I first ran the `apt-key del opera` command to remove all opera keys (kept repeating it until it gave a gpg: key "opera" not found: eof message)
And I like greyed out entries that indicate that the package is already installed.

Re: MX Package Installer vs Synaptic
Ditto for grey for the installed items.
Yes, even I am dishonest. Not in many ways, but in some. Forty-one, I think it is.
