Install error for picoscope/stable,stable 6.14.36-4r5676

[tobalur]

Hi, today came the update for picoscope to
picoscope/stable,stable 6.14.36-4r5676 all [upgradable from: 6.14.23-4r580]
This did not work because of an error in libpicoipp_1.3.0-4r78_amd64.deb:

Code: Select all

sudo dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archives/libpicoipp_1.3.0-4r78_amd64.deb
(Reading database ... 504031 files and directories currently installed.)
Preparing to unpack .../libpicoipp_1.3.0-4r78_amd64.deb ...
dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/libpicoipp_1.3.0-4r78_amd64.deb (--install):
 conffile name 'etc/ld.so.conf.d/picoscope.conf' is not an absolute pathname

This error can be corrected by removing the first line in DEBIAN/conffiles in the packet libpicoipp which begins with "etc/" (without leading "/") and manually installing the corrected packet with dpkg. After that another "apt update" solves the rest.

Could you please correct the package in your repository?
Hope that helps

hi, I have the same problem on a debian/sid system.
Can you explain a little more the solution ?
I'm not used to fiddling with dpkg and debian/conffiles.
Thanks for your help.

Same error here on debian testing (bullseye).

Thanks tobalur, good work! Though I have to admit I don't know how to perform the magic you suggest.

I suspect I'm about to google, how to take apart a .deb, edit it and then put it back together again....

Hello,
I have the same problem on Ubuntu 20.10 in a fresh install on my home computer for teleworking.
The error also comes from libpicoipp_1.3.0-4r78_amd64.deb
Best regards

Background:
I have been using the "Centos" approach on Fedora successfully for over 2 years.
Upgrades have gone smoothly even though the OS is not officially supported

Further Info:
It would seem that libiomp5.so and friends have been removed from libpicoipp and have not appeared elsewhere.
Older version of libpicoipp rpm

Hopefully it is just a matter of waiting until this is fixed.
Any advice in the meantime would be welcome.

Hi,
I have created a bug for this seems to affecting Debian systems. (amd64 and armhf packages)
I have added rpm packages may also be affected.
For now you can install with the work around for Debian systems, full instructions here-
