I wasn’t expecting to jump into Linux the way I did - and I’m glad I did - but all that to say, I ended up rebooting WorkStation a million times becaause I’d try to download programs in he same way that I’d download them on Mac, hten realize I should probably delete them - then I’d look up how to delete them and realized that all of this stuff is interconnected, so if I delete all of the components of a package that I installed, it could be deleting a dependency for another package. I had no idea what was going on at first and every time I got to the command line, I just assumed that I had broken the system by installing things that didn’t end up working. There’s no content on YouTube or anywhere else - then just documentation that covers some basic stuff but doesn’t seem like anyone is really taking the charge on showing people how to use this system. With that said, now it’s: how do I use VS Code to install the C++ compiler on this immutable desktop? I wish there was someone that just made videos about all of this for Silverblue. Now I’ve started a C++ programming course because i’m clearly getting nowhere with higher level languages - as they don’t make sense, and lower level seems to at least have a clear structure within the definitions and logic of what you’re working with. That said, I want to try this Apache version anyways so this was more of a “how do I solve this problem?” type of question - as I learn more about programming. csv so asking one to select is really just an indicator that there are likely several other things that the devs didn’t consider as far as UX is concerned, so it’s more avoiding a headache. Selecting time zones and then not recognizing that the file is. I’ve tried both LibreOffice and OnlyOffice and they’re okay, but given that this would be an “alternative” to Windows, it should have a similar user experience in terms of setting up, and it does not. …and that’s where I get the second error: …and from there ran the command you suggested (which I had originally ran as root, so without “sudo” but then included “sudo” per another thread I came across): That question should probably be on a different thread and I do have to step out to return some video tapes, so I’ll be punctual: I’ll submit there’s a knowledge gap here though. I suppose I do fundamentally understand how this is meant to work though and I don’t quite get why downloads don’t just go to /var then automatically and recursively copy over to the intended folder of where the script is meant to be run? Or upon the initial download, just have a script that just spins up a container w/ Toolbox? It seems like with the initial download - the directory could just clear a simple script to do one of those two (2) things, then chmod 400 after the copied directory goes to where it needs to go. Quite frankly, I don’t understand this system very much and I certainly don’t have the low-level programming knowledge to start changing config files and what not. Silverblue saves things in the /var directory and therein lies the rub. I speculate that the issue is that everything goes to a specific folder and there are scripts set up so that they can automatically execute. “error: can’t create transaction lock on /usr/share/rpm/.rpm.lock (Read-only file system)”Īlso, regarding number five (5) - the optional step - I see that your command has “dnf” and I’m doing this on Silverblue. With that said, I had actually done exactly that - and at #4 I get the following response: Hey there, benny - thanks for the instructions. Respectfully, i’m not soliciting advice on whether to use OpenOffice vs LibreOffice I’m asking how to solve this problem I’m hopeful someone can help me understand what happened here. etc/SuSE-release is needed by openoffice4.1.12-suse-menus-4.1.12-9809.noarch Redhat-release is needed by openoffice4.1.12-redhat-menus-4.1.12-9809.noarch Mandrake-release is needed by openoffice4.1.12-mandriva-menus-4.1.12-9809.noarch Openoffice4.1.12-mandriva-menus conflicts with openoffice4.1.12-freedesktop-menus-4.1.12-9809.noarch Openoffice4.1.12-redhat-menus conflicts with openoffice4.1.12-freedesktop-menus-4.1.12-9809.noarch Openoffice4.1.12-suse-menus conflicts with openoffice4.1.12-freedesktop-menus-4.1.12-9809.noarch Tried chmod’ing that directory to 777 temporarily didn’t work then 640 didn’t work.
