Completely remove old version of elasticsearch and install newer version - elasticsearch

There're a lot of articles on the internet regarding new installation of elasticsearch. But I already have 1.x version of elasticsearch running. I want to remove this first and install a newer version. How do I do this? I had used something like this to install the old one:
sudo -s // use as admin
#public key
wget -O - http://packages.elasticsearch.org/GPG-KEY-elasticsearch | apt-key add -
# edit /etc/apt/sources.list and add
deb http://packages.elasticsearch.org/elasticsearch/1.0/debian stable main
deb http://packages.elasticsearch.org/logstash/1.3/debian stable main
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install elasticsearch

Why don't you simply extract the gzip version of elasticsearch and extract its contents. That's the recommended way. This way you can also keep different versions if you need.

local apt repo update own software

I've created a local apt repo on apache2 using this structure:
mkdir -p /var/www/html/repo/pool/main/
cp /home/xxx.deb /var/www/html/repo/pool/main/.
mkdir -p /var/www/html/repo/dists/focal/main/binary-amd64
cd /var/www/html/repo
dpkg-scanpackages --multiversion --arch amd64 pool/ > dists/focal/main/binary-amd64/Packages
cat dists/focal/main/binary-amd64/Packages | gzip -9 > dists/focal/main/binary-amd64/Packages.gz
Made a release, signed the release in /var/www/html/repo/dists/focal
Added rule in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/gmss.list
After all this I can install my debs on this repository, however when I add a new version of my software in the pool and make a new package file and I do:
apt update
apt install softwarepkg
It says that the latest version is already installed.
How can I get this to update to the latest version op my software?
You may want to try running apt clean to clear the cache, which may have the older version of your package.

FSL installation in Ubuntu FAILED message

I am a traditional Windows user and therefore you have to excuse me for my lack of experience with other OS. I installed Ubuntu in order to install FSL in my computer (seems the Windows installation failed so I tried this). However, the download goes right, but at the end it says "[FAILED] Unable to unpack FSL".
How can I solve it?
Thanks a lot
First of all, this is not a programming question. If it can still be moved to AskUbuntu (or SuperUser) it may be better appreciated.
In Ubuntu the easy way to install software is through the package manager. This is by far the least amount of work and installs binary packages in default locations (FSL is in the path straight away), plus it takes care of all the dependencies!
FSL is in the NeuroDebian repository, and if you add this to one of your 'software sources' then you can install it via Ubuntu's package manager, APT:
go to https://neuro.debian.net and find out how to add the right repository, e.g.
$ wget -O- http://neuro.debian.net/lists/focal.de-fzj.full | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/neurodebian.sources.list
$ sudo apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver hkp://pool.sks-keyservers.net:80 0xA5D32F012649A5A9
update the list of packages APT can find:
$ sudo apt update
install the fsl packages you want, e.g.
$ sudo apt install fsl-5.0 fsl-harvard-oxford-cortical-lateralized-atlas

How to download PPA through proxy on Debian WSL?

I am trying to download/install php7.2 on Debian which is installed on my WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux), through my company's proxy.
I have been able to download apt packages by using this solution : https://askubuntu.com/questions/89437/how-to-install-packages-with-apt-get-on-a-system-connected-via-proxy
The problem now is that I need ppa from sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php cause php > 7.0 is not available anymore with sudo apt-get install and I tried many solutions but no one worked for me. Every solution tested by the asker of https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/361213/unable-to-add-gpg-key-with-apt-key-behind-a-proxy were tried and the answers too.
So, there is my last obstacle :
$ sudo -E add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php
Co-installable PHP versions: PHP 5.6, PHP 7.x and most requested extensions are included. Only
Supported Versions of PHP (http://php.net/supported-versions.php) for Supported Ubuntu Releases
(https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases) are provided. Don't ask for end-of-life PHP versions or Ubuntu
release, they won't be provided.
Debian oldstable and stable packages are provided as well: https://deb.sury.org/#debian-dpa
You can get more information about the packages at https://deb.sury.org
BUGS&FEATURES: This PPA now has a issue tracker:
https://deb.sury.org/#bug-reporting
CAVEATS:
1. If you are using php-gearman, you need to add ppa:ondrej/pkg-gearman
2. If you are using apache2, you are advised to add ppa:ondrej/apache2
3. If you are using nginx, you are advise to add ppa:ondrej/nginx-mainline
or ppa:ondrej/nginx

SmartGit Installation and Usage on Ubuntu

I have downloaded latest SmartGit installation and each time I want to use it I need to run script smartgit.sh from SmartGit bin directory, this process requires the same repository setup every time.
What it correct way of installing SmartGit on Ubuntu? Thus I can have normal icon and run the program from state of previous usage, without configuring repositories every time.
Thanks.
You can add a PPA that provides a relatively current version of SmartGit(as well as SmartGitHg, the predecessor of SmartGit).
To add the PPA run:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:eugenesan/ppa
sudo apt-get update
To install smartgit (after adding the PPA) run:
sudo apt-get install smartgit
To install smartgithg (after adding the PPA) run:
sudo apt-get install smartgithg
This should add a menu option for you
For more information, see Eugene San PPA.
This repository contains collection of customized, updated, ported and backported packages for two last LTS releases and latest pre-LTS release
What it correct way of installing SmartGit on Ubuntu? Thus I can have
normal icon
In smartgit/bin folder, there's a shell script waiting for you: add-menuitem.sh. It does just that.
Now on the Smartgit webpage (I don't know since when) there is the possibility to download directly the .deb package. Once installed, it will upgrade automagically itself when a new version is released.
Seems a bit too late, but there is a PPA repository with SmartGit, enjoy! =)

Having trouble configuring sphinx search

I downloaded sphinx 0.9.9 to my ubuntu 10.4 machine.
I ran cd ~/sphinx-0.9.9 then ./configure, then make then make install.
Make install gave me errors so I ran sudo make install and then there were no errors.
I am going through the documentation. I am at 2.6. Quick Sphinx usage tour.
It says:
All the example commands below assume that you installed Sphinx in /usr/local/sphinx, so searchd can be found in /usr/local/sphinx/bin/searchd.
I do have /usr/local/sphinx but there is no bin folder in it, just etc and var.
It then also says:
there's example.sql sample data file to populate that table with a few documents for testing purposes:
$ mysql -u test < /usr/local/sphinx/etc/example.sql
but inside my /usr/local/sphinx/etc/ folder there is only one file: sphinx.conf
and according to the docs that file shouldnt event exist yet, it should be sphinx.conf.dist
I tried to install sphinx 6 months ago and gave up. I am only revisiting it now, so maybe there is a chance I screwed something up then that is giving me problems now. Is there a way to remove everything sphinx so I can try again fresh? Or does anyone have any other ideas what is going on?
You might try installing the package version of sphinx; it's slightly older, but should work as well. As far as compiling problems, you might check the SphinxSearch forum.
Looks like you have installation issue here.
The output of make command will be helpful.
I would suggest reinstalling sphinx, just delete the folder/or run sudo make uninstall, where you had installed the sphinx, and then following these steps to reinstall sphinx
Update and Grab dependencies. Run these commands in order to get the files you need to install Sphinx.
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
sudo apt-get install build-essential
sudo apt-get install libmysqlclient15-dev
Download source, Untar and prep. Here's where it gets a bit complicated. You'll need to extract the source, change into the directory and configure Sphinx. Do that with these commands.
tar xvzf sphinx-0.9.8.1.tar.gz
cd sphinx-0.9.8.1/
./configure --with-mysql-includes=/usr/include/mysql --with-mysql-libs=/usr/lib/mysql
Make and Install Sphinx
make
sudo make install
