Looking for IDE or RAD development environments application (KDE)
for Java, Perl, Lisp.

On the Macintosh, we had toolbox which had all the libraries, and objects,
to program in several languages.

Doesn't (KDE) offer this too ?
if so, which application gui would work ?



Major Thanks -
Richard

Or you have a main box that usually connects to the net with ppp and a
desktop box that normally connects via the main box.  As a back-up plan
in case something happens to the main box, move the external modem to
the desktop and use it as the firewall/internet access and the main box
can access the net through the desktop.  

Sort of a unique case on my part, but it is part of my
bare-metal-recovery plan and is tested.

It would have been installed if you chose the 'desktop' task to bring in
gnome.

If you want a good learning experience, try installing and not brining
in any tasks.  You get a minimal base install without a 'network
manager' with network setup the semi-old-fashioned-debian way.

In that case, try installing a different version of xdvi, maybe from 
lenny. Try to find out what packages have been installed/upgraded 
recently to track the source of the problem.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed

Hi,

Is there an extension/configuration parameters for working with message 
threads in icedove? For instance, I would like to be able to move an 
entire thread to a specific folder, or delete an entire thread without 
having to select the individual messages.

This problem has been bugging me for quite some time. I was surprised 
initially to discover delete on a collapsed thread deletes only the top 
message. The other actions (copy, move, etc) also affect only the 
visible message.

Neither google nor the thunderbird extension pages seem to offer any 
help in this.

I have the feeling that I am missing something fairly obvious. Please 
provide some pointers in this regard.

Thanks

I didn't have to try.  The Etch kernel+initrd still worked.
As soon as the system was up I changed /etc/fstab and grub/menu.lst
to use volume labels which make the Lenny kernel+initrd work too.

I didn't know that.  If I hadn't had a working option in GRUB
I would have tried editing the kernel command line next.
I've also rescued Debian by booting Knoppix, mounting stuff,
and running a chroot shell.

I actually tried that before going to volume labels.  Rebuilding
the initrd puts the same old /etc/fstab in the new initrd image.
That doesn't get you past the udev hang.  I guess a more sophisticated
update-initrd would alert you to the difference between the
current mtab and the /etc/fstab contents.  It wouldn't know whether
the difference was intended, so it would have to ask what to do.
And if I'd put a new device-names fstab in the Etch initrd then
my Etch kernel wouldn't have worked any more.  

Come to think of it, I only learned about volume labels a few
months ago, solving a similar problem.  I installed an Etch web
server on /dev/hde (a drive on an add-in ATA interface card),
in a test machine that already had an Etch workstation on /dev/hda.
And when I launched the hde kernel with GRUB it booted the
workstation instead!  I fiddled around with the udev rules
but they were so poorly documented I wasn't confident I could
upgrade the machine remotely.

I've been using Debian for a long time.  It's just *weird* to
see anything broken like that.

OK, lets look at the install freezing issue. 

Did you read the installation manual (the whole thing, not just the
howto)?  Did you submit an installation report as it suggests?  Have you
subscribed to debian-boot which is where they go?

We're users.  Yes, some of us may have run the Etch installer.  More
have probably just upgraded from Sarge and perhaps Woody before that; it
may have been over 5 years since some of us ran the installer and it has
changed a lot.

Debian-boot is all about getting the installer to boot and install.

That said,

I'm willing to try to sort it out if you're using the plain (non-GUI)
installer and not installing directly to a desktop-environment system
(since I don't use one).  I can try to help you go from bare-metal to a
minimal base install text-mode/command-line-interface Debian-Etch
system.  Keep it on Debian-user.

Doug.

Probably not.  Unix programmers have *traditionally* used vi (or
emacs) as their development environment, with make, ctags, etc, etc,
as their environment.

Maybe you'd like Eclipse?

Some people that develop KDE apps use KDevelop. It is C++ and KDE
focused, but has support for Java and Perl (I don't know about Lisp). Java
Devs often use Eclipse (Eclipse supports languages besides Java, but I
don't know specifically about Perl and Lisp) or NetBeans. I  guess most
Perl and Lisp Devs would use text editors, like Vim, Nedit and Emacs
(Emacs has a particularly good Lisp editing mode, since it is written in Lisp).

You will need to install the libraries yourself.

Ubuntu packages for xfce can be found at
http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/x/

This directory contains all the packages, starting with x, for the last
few Ubunutu releases.

Anytime you want to get a package, you can find them by entering the
url from the repository, and going to the "pool" directory.  This is
true of both Ubuntu and debian repositories.

Mark

PS, Manually installing all the packages for an xfce setup, via "dpkg
-i", will take a while.  I would seriously try to get apt, aptitude, or
synaptic working first.

Others have already given you some answers. Here is my take on this.

If the configure script runs without errors and then make does not compile
the code completely, then it is a bug worth reporting. That said, are you
sure there are no errors generated during the configure script?

Coming back to original question, the answer might be as simple as running

sudo apt-get build-dep gtkhtml3.14

assuming that the dependencies have not changed much between 3.14 and 3.16.

 It seemed correct,  but
I have a problem to start Solaris, a solaris Pb, so I reboot whith CD1

 I thought aptitude had that. I found the info in the debian-reference:
-------------------
http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/reference/ch-package.en.html
-------------------
6.4.9 Record/copy system configuration

To make a local copy of the package selection states:

     # dpkg --get-selections "*" >myselections   # or use \*
     # debconf-get-selections > debconfsel.txt

"*" makes myselections include package entries for "purge" too.

You can transfer this file to another computer, and install it there
with:

     # dselect update
     # debconf-set-selections < debconfsel.txt
     # dpkg --set-selections <myselections
     # apt-get -u dselect-upgrade    # or dselect install
-K

Did you change the line in your sources.list file to point to
'etch-backports'?
