Installing python-twisted fails
Hi,
I try to install the twisted-engine on my ReadyNas Duo (Sparc). It's used to let an IRC-bot communicate with the network.
The package is available for Debian as "python-twisted": http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/wiki/Downloads
However, when I issue
I installed python 2.6.6 via "WhoCares?" add-on and that works nicely.
So to me it seems like he's trying to install a package called "libdb4.8", but can't. When I try to install it directly, I get the following error:
I googled this, but since I found nothing, I thought it might be a ReadyNas-specific problem?
Thank you guys for you help!
Daniel

apt-get install python-twistedI receive the following errors:
ReadyNas:~# apt-get install python-twisted
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
python-twisted: Depends: python2.3-twisted but it is not going to be installed
python2.6: Depends: libdb4.8 but it is not installable
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

Package libdb4.8 is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
E: Package libdb4.8 has no installation candidate
I googled this, but since I found nothing, I thought it might be a ReadyNas-specific problem?

- libdb4,8 should be installed on your ReadyNAS already but it is not available from the standard 'etch' repo the ReadyNAS firmware is based on. To install python-twisted you best try to build it from the sources available in the 'lenny' repository, that's what the Python add-on is based on.
-Stefan - Thanks for your reply!
My Duo is still running 4.1.6. Later this week I'll install 4.1.8. Do you think that libdb4.8 could be included there?
Unfortunately I don't have much clue about building things from source. That should be "lenny": http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/dists/lenny - Okay, I got a bit further and found the twisted-package: http://packages.debian.org/source/lenny/twisted
Now I have a tarball. We'll see whether I'm able to extract that somehow with the included setup.py-script. :) ReadyNas:/c/home/eggy/TwistedCore-8.1.0# python setup.py install
