perfsonar-testpoint installation not possible on Debian 11 Bullseye system
FS-Araali opened this issue · 3 comments
I am running a Raspberry Pi 4 with the latest Pi OS / Debian 11 Bullseye, currently pefsonar-testpoint is available for Debain 10 Buster. Therefore, the installation fails due to package dependencies:
[root@RaspberryPiTeleoperation5G:/etc/apt/sources.list.d#](mailto:root@RaspberryPiTeleoperation5G:/etc/apt/sources.list.d#) apt-get install perfsonar-testpoint

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
pscheduler-server : Depends: postgresql-11 but it is not installable or
postgresql-10 but it is not installable or
postgresql-9.6 but it is not installable or
postgresql-9.5 but it is not installable
Depends: postgresql-plpython3-11 but it is not installable or
postgresql-plpython3-10 but it is not installable or
postgresql-plpython3-9.6 but it is not installable or
postgresql-plpython3-9.5 but it is not installable
python3-pscheduler : Depends: python3-pyjq
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
I was able to fix pscheduler-server : Depends: postgresql-11 etc. by modifying the source-list, to make the packages accessible on Debian 11 Bullseye:
deb [trusted=yes] http://security.debian.org/debian-security buster/updates main
deb [trusted=yes] http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian buster main
For python3-pscheduler : Depends: python3-pyjq, I was unfortunately not able to find any further information about this particular package and failed therefore to add it manually as workaround.
Do you know a possibility to solve this issue, or is there an alternative approach to get it running?
You are right, python3-pyjq is not available for Debian 11 yet and not available else where AFAIK. We will provide this package through our usual repository when we'll be officially supporting that distro with some future versions of perfSONAR.
Our version of PyJQ has a critical bug fix in it, so we have to build that anyway. The issue on this has been open for four years (with a link to my fix) and there hasn't been a lot of movement on it.
No matter, we'll get it built.
Thanks for the feedback, I have found a solution that is sufficient for me at the moment. Nevertheless, I am pretty sure that I will look into the problem again at a later date.
Thank you, guys!
