Re: [PLUG] Oops, quickly over my head with Ubuntu package management
|
Bingo!
Bottom line: it's an old system. coreutils is installed but sha256sum is not
in it. (Neither, it turns out, is sha224sum, sha256sum, sha384sum, sha512sum,
or shasum with the options -a or --algorithm [1|224|256|384|512]). Bummer.
Thanks for all the replies... dpkg -S was exactly what I was thinking of but
unable to find.
I'm talking with the owner of the server about updating it to the latest LTS
Ubuntu release because this system:
Is already 3 years after release
Has edgy repositories in /etc/apt/sources.list
(which are now unavailable... and I don't know
what was installed from them.)
Has a spotty admin record (not me!)
Gee, if I only knew of a local company that I could outsource these kind of
system admin tasks too... :-)
Thanks again to everybody.
