Unable to install yade on Ubuntu 10.04.

Asked by Anna Vass

Hi,

I have been trying to install yade on my 64bit Ubuntu 10.04 but I keep getting errors...
This is what I get:

anna@anna-DELL-Workstation:/$ sudo apt-get install yadedaily
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies.
  yadedaily: Depends: libyadedaily (= 1.09.0-51-3dc1972~saucy-1) but it is not going to be installed
             Depends: python-yadedaily (= 1.09.0-51-3dc1972~saucy-1) but it is not going to be installed
             Depends: python-numpy (>= 1:1.7-0~b1) but 1:1.3.0-3build1 is to be installed
             Depends: python-numpy-abi9 but it is not installable
             Depends: python:any but it is not installable
E: Broken packages

When I try to install the libyadedaily through the Synaptic Package, I again get tons of dependencies and errors:

libyadedaily:
 Depends: libopenblas-dev but it is not installable
 Depends: libblas3 but it is not installable or
  libblas.so.3 but it is not installable
 Depends: libboost-filesystem1.53.0 but it is not installable
 Depends: libboost-iostreams1.53.0 but it is not installable
 Depends: libboost-python1.53.0 but it is not installable
 Depends: libboost-regex1.53.0 but it is not installable
 Depends: libboost-serialization1.53.0 but it is not installable
 Depends: libboost-system1.53.0 but it is not installable
 Depends: libboost-thread1.53.0 but it is not installable
  Depends: libc6 (>=2.14) but 2.11.1-0ubuntu7.13 is to be installed
 Depends: libcgal10 but it is not installable
 Depends: libgmp10 but it is not installable
 Depends: libpython2.7 (>=2.7) but it is not installable
 Depends: libqglviewer2 (>= 2.3.17)
  Depends: libstdc++6 (>=4.6) but 4.4.3-4ubuntu5.1 is to be installed
 Depends: libvtk5.8 but it is not installable
 PreDepends: multiarch-support but it is not installable

The python-libyadedaily is not even in listed in the synaptic package manager, the numpy is only available in version 1:1.3 and the python (2.6.5) is installed.

Would appreciate any help! Wanted to start coding already, did not think that the installation would be this problematic...
Thanks for your help in advance!

Anna

Hi Ana,

I'm afraid that your problems are related to your Ubuntu version : 10.04 is probably too old... I let other people with more packages skills than me confirm, but you will maybe have to consider upgrade to newer versions.

We are quite numerous to use 12.04, and it's working but some people here consider already this 12.04 version as too old.

Did you try installing other variants, like "yade-daily" or just "yade"?

As others say, 10.04 is too old for Yade. You can try to compile it, but
I do not think it is possible. You need a lot of dependent packages, which are
not available in this version of Ubuntu but required for Yade.

It seems you are using saucy-repository to install Yadedaily. It is impossible
because saucy is an Ubuntu 13.10, which is pretty new.

I would not recommend 12.04 to upgrade. It is too old also.

Hi Guys,

Bruno: yes, I tried that too, does not work.

Thanks a lot for your replies. I kind of assumed that this was the issue but did not want to accept it I guess :) as I have to use the 10.04 for another DEM which currently is only stable here. Anyway, thanks a lot again! Will figure out something then..

I am quite sure you can install yade on 10.04. Simply, it will be an old version of it.
The problem must what Anton is mentionning: installing yade from 13.10 repos will not work...
