Is anyone using apt-get for rpms in RH 8.0?
Whenever I issue the following command, I get a strange error: apt-get install foo warning: cannot get exclusive lock on /var/lib/rpm/Packages What does this mean? All of these directories do exist. Also, I am trying to get either Cygwin or TightVNC installed on my RH 8.0 machine. I've installed TightVNC-server, having problems with it and see my output below. [EMAIL PROTECTED] vnc_unixsrc]# rpm -qa | grep tightvnc-server tightvnc-server-1.2.8-1 [EMAIL PROTECTED] vnc_unixsrc]# rpm -e tightvnc.server-1.2.8-1 error: package tightvnc.server-1.2.8-1 is not installed [EMAIL PROTECTED] vnc_unixsrc]# Any way to fix this? thanks -Chris ===== Winning an argument on the internet is like getting 1st place at the Special Olympics ***************************************** GAIM ID: cmmiller1973 ***************************************** __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
