| Summary | 0010834: Trisquel cannot use Universe | ||||
| Description | https://docs.taler.net/taler-merchant-manual.html#installing-the-gnu-taler-binary-packages-on-trisquel "2.3.2. Installing the GNU Taler binary packages on Trisquel To install the GNU Taler Trisquel packages, first ensure that you have the right Trisquel distribution. Packages are currently available for Trisquel GNU/Linux 10.0. Simply follow the same instructions provided for Ubuntu." Who wrote this? It is not possible to install multiverse in Trisquel, neither in version 10 or later: | ||||

d13d6eee..b1409afc removes the instructions for Trisquel, as these community-provided instructions clearly do not work anymore and we don't seem to have anyone able or willing to support maintaining them. |

Sorry, I reported "multiverse" by mistake. Can you please change the title to "Trisquel cannot use Ubuntu's universe repository" So this bug is still valid, here is my report with "universe" that is documented for Ubuntu (https://docs.taler.net/taler-merchant-manual.html#installing-the-gnu-taler-binary-packages-on-ubuntu) in Trisquel: * Open Trisquel * sudo apt-get update * Add "deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ jammy universe" to /etc/apt/sources.list * Add /etc/apt/sources.list.d/taler.list with "deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/taler-systems.gpg] https://deb.taler.net/apt/ubuntu/ noble main" * sudo wget -O /etc/apt/keyrings/taler-systems.gpg https://taler.net/taler-systems.gpg * $ sudo apt update Get:1 https://deb.taler.net/apt/ubuntu noble InRelease [3,829 B] Get:2 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jammy InRelease [270 kB] Get:3 https://deb.taler.net/apt/ubuntu noble/main amd64 Packages [8,790 B] Hit:4 https://archive.trisquel.org/trisquel aramo InRelease Err:2 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jammy InRelease The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 871920D1991BC93C Hit:5 https://archive.trisquel.org/trisquel aramo-security InRelease Hit:6 https://archive.trisquel.org/trisquel aramo-updates InRelease Reading package lists...

"Trisquel cannot use the universe repository" is even better as title because I demonstrated that also "deb https://archive.trisquel.org/trisquel/ aramo universe" does not work in Trisquel. |
|
|
Yes, its is universe, not multiverse (GNU Taler has no non-free dependencies). That said, I don't see what we can do here. We cannot force Ubuntu to move packages out of universe into main. Trisquel could in principle do that, but that's again not something *we* can do. And we are NOT going to change our dependencies for this either, that's just too much to ask. So what exactly is the ask here? |
|
|
Thank you for updating the documentation. I'm not asking for anything in this issue, I just had to re-open it to comment. I'm new with this bug tracker. I suggested that the universe repository should be avoided in a separate issue in order to make it compatible with Trisquel: https://bugs.gnunet.org/view.php?id=10856 |

Also thanks for changing the title for this issue. It can be closed now. |
