I use smart for my package management and it looks promising to me. I currently use "smart-0.40-10.guru.suse100". It looks like smart is giving me those multiple installed packages. When I search in smart for snort, I see it two times (one package is on two locations): http://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/suse/apt/SuSE/10.0-i386/RPMS.base/snort-2.3.3-2... http://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/suse/apt/SuSE/10.0-i386/RPMS.security/snort-2.3... http://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/suse/apt/SuSE/10.0-i386/RPMS.update/snort-2.3.3... Is this a smart problem or a problem with the apt repositories?
It's not a smart problem per se. In my latest smart package (0.40-10), I also added the security and update APT components. When you do a "search" it shows you all the hits. We're currently discussing that on the smart mailing-list. IMHO smart should either - - "search foo" => only show the package names, but then only once - - "search -v foo" => also show the version - - "search -c foo" => also show the channel (and hence, show them all) Now if, when you do a "install snort", smart installs multiple copies of snort, then it's definately a bug. If you can reproduce it, please do file a bug: http://labix.org/smart
When smart is trying to update e.g. snort it hung, I needed to kill it. How long did you wait ? It was probably hanging on the socket with ftp.gwdg.de The default value for socket timeout is 120 seconds. You can change that by modifying the "socket-timeout" config parameter: smart config --set socket-timeout=30
Are the you maintainers looking at smart? I don't think so... Christoph ?
