Installing Packages & Symlinking

6. 6. Installing Packages

   Installing the Required Packages
   Some Package in Not Any More in the Actual Repo and so we have to Unpack some Legacy Stuff…

   From Trusty Universe:

   echo 'deb [trusted=yes] http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty main universe' >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/extra-trusty.list
   

   apt update

   Then Execute:

   sudo apt install lsb-cxx pdksh

   Disable Trusty Universe:

   sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/extra-trusty.list

   Again Restore the Repos with:

   apt update

   Finally, Install Remaining Dependencies:

   apt-get install alien autoconf automake autotools-dev binutils doxygen elfutils expat gawk gcc gcc-multilib g++-multilib libstdc++6:i386 ksh less libtiff5 libtiff5-dev lib32z1 libaio1 libaio-dev libc6-dev libc6-dev-i386 libc6-i386 libelf-dev libltdl-dev libodbcinstq4-1 libodbcinstq4-1:i386 libstdc++5 make openssh-server rlwrap rpm sysstat unixodbc unixodbc-dev x11-utils libpth-dev zlibc libglapi-mesa:i386 libglu1-mesa:i386 libqt4-opengl:i386 libpthread-workqueue0 libpthread-workqueue-dev libzthread-2.3-2 libzthread-dev libmotif-common

7. 7. Making Symlinks

   Make Symlinks to Binaries and Libraries.

   Linking Binaries

   ln -s /usr/bin/awk /bin/awk

   ln -s /usr/bin/rpm /bin/rpm

   ln -s /usr/bin/basename /bin/basename

   Linking Libraries

   ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu /usr/lib64

   cd /lib64

   ln -s /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgcc_s.so.1 .
