WormFood: i doubt that multiarch method doesnt, work...perhaps you can only mention your experience
WormFood 2017-01-25 17:45:47
What the fuck guys? This is only one program as an example of what doesn't work. Even if I get this to work as a 64-bit program, it still doesn't solve the problem of multiarch not working.

WormFood: if you do find a broken wiki, please report to the ubuntu ops
WormFood 2017-01-25 17:46:22
lotuspsychje, when I try to install the libc6:i386 package, it tells me it conflicts with the libc6 package already installed
WormFood 2017-01-25 17:47:03
cfhowlett, you're no help at all. You're not addressing the issues I'm having.
Random832 2017-01-25 17:47:32
i don't even understand what instructions you're following, that page doesn't seem to have any
Random832 2017-01-25 17:47:38
WormFood, can you paste the exact output?
lotuspsychje 2017-01-25 17:48:02
!info multiarch-support
ubottu 2017-01-25 17:48:05
multiarch-support (source: glibc): Transitional package to ensure multiarch compatibility. In component main, is required. Version 2.24-3ubuntu2 (yakkety), package size 6 kB, installed size 227 kB
WormFood 2017-01-25 17:48:08
"The need for 32-bit program support on a 64-bit system is indicated by a file /etc/dpkg/dpkg.cfg.d/multiarch containing foreign-architecture i386. It is unwise to disable this unless you know what you are doing." <-- try this on 16.04, and see if you don't get an error too
lotuspsychje 2017-01-25 17:48:28
WormFood: can you try this package?
Random832 2017-01-25 17:48:59
WormFood, I have no idea what's going on, but it works for me without ever having had to do such a thing
Random832 2017-01-25 17:49:12
and it said "is indicated by". It didn't tell you to create it.
WormFood 2017-01-25 17:49:18
Random832, I can't easily copy/paste because it's on a different machine (I personally don't use Ubuntu, I'm doing this for a friend)
WormFood 2017-01-25 17:49:40
Random832, the file doesn't exist, and the contents they claim it should have, gives an error.
lotuspsychje 2017-01-25 17:50:24
hmm component main & required should mean 16.04 is perhaps already multiarch supported?
Random832 2017-01-25 17:50:26
...they didn't tell you to create it. it's probably an implementation detail of an older version of dpkg, but once again *they didn't tell you to create it*, the only instruction they gave regarding that file was not to delete it if it exists
WormFood 2017-01-25 17:51:25
Random832, it's not clear, what it should be, because when I make sure it's exactly the way they say it should be, then it doesn't work.
Random832 2017-01-25 17:51:42
...delete the file. they did not tell you to create the file.
WormFood 2017-01-25 17:52:01
Well, I'm not going to leave it there, when it's obviously wrong.
Random832 2017-01-25 17:52:10
jesus this is an old page and maybe a little bit misleading, but you're not listening
Random832 2017-01-25 17:52:17
like did you even try to install it without that?
WormFood 2017-01-25 17:52:22
lotuspsychje, mutliatch-support was already installed.
WormFood 2017-01-25 17:53:32
of course Random832. I've done everything reasonable to make it install. It constantly hangs, claiming that libc6:i386 conflicts with libc6, and refuses to install anything at that point, or gives me wacky options, to uninstall 1/2 my system
Random832 2017-01-25 17:53:58
part of the reason i wanted to know the exact output was to see what versions it is talking about
Random832 2017-01-25 17:54:32
what does it do if you try to "apt-get install libc6 libc6:i386" - sometimes i do this if apt gets confused and wants to remove something and it'll tell me the real reason
WormFood 2017-01-25 17:54:34
Random832, it's a stock, fresh install of 16.04, from the dvd image. The old user directory has been moved over, but that is all that has been done.
lotuspsychje 2017-01-25 17:54:40
WormFood: like cfhowlett said, 32bit will vanish in the future, perhaps a good time to use 64bit of software on your 64bit system?.
WormFood 2017-01-25 17:55:30
lotuspsychje, then perhaps you can convince everyone to release both 32-bit, and 64-bit packages, for their commercial software. Until that time, I'm forced to deal with this 32-bit crap.
WormFood 2017-01-25 17:56:46
And yes, 32-bit is dying, but it still has a lot of life left in it. I still program on 8-bit (embedded) systems, so nothing is truly dead, it's just shifts uses.

lotuspsychje, Thanks but is it against channel policy on telling me how to reinstall cups?
lotuspsychje 2017-01-25 18:15:26
jim460: cups is a service, after a reboot should work out of the box
lotuspsychje 2017-01-25 18:16:01
jim460: perhaps stop/start the service can fix your issue?
jim460 2017-01-25 18:16:20
lotuspsychje, CUPS was working just fine. Out of nowhere it started crashing. Rebooting the system does NOT help.
jim460 2017-01-25 18:16:39
lotuspsychje, I tried doing all updates and restarting but it is still a problem.

Hello.
peaches870 2017-01-25 18:23:56
I am trying to use Ricochet IM with my Ubuntu.
peaches870 2017-01-25 18:24:02
It says that my contact was added in October.
peaches870 2017-01-25 18:24:06
But says Request Pending.
peaches870 2017-01-25 18:24:11
Is this because they are not online?
jim460 2017-01-25 18:24:21
I'm at a loss at how to fix this. Would I seriously need to reinstall Ubuntu or switch Distros just because CUPS is crashing? Printing is vital.
peaches870 2017-01-25 18:24:23
Will they receive my request only when we are online at the same time?
peaches870 2017-01-25 18:24:37
They've never received any request from me but as yet we haven't been online at the same time.
xXEoflaOEXx 2017-01-25 18:25:21
peaches870, You have sent them a request, so they must be online, else, it will not work. You must re-request only whether they have logged in.
WormFood 2017-01-25 18:25:54
lotuspsychje, I'm 99% sure, my problem was caused because the "best" repo it picked, is out of date. Now it's updating all the ubuntu packages, and I expect after that, it will work as it should. I'll let you know one way or the other.

peaches870 2017-01-25 18:27:14
xXEoflaOEXx, So we need to be online at the same time for the request to be seen?
peaches870 2017-01-25 18:27:37
xXEoflaOEXx, With other IM programs the request is sent and received whether or not the other party is online at the same time.
peaches870 2017-01-25 18:27:46
Is this because of the TOR aspect?
xXEoflaOEXx 2017-01-25 18:29:30
peaches870, Yes, You need to be online at the same time for the request to be seen. but if other people received the request on other I'm programs and they are offline, they received it.
