pandoc can't install due to http-client - pandoc

I'm trying to install pandoc 1.13.1 on Ubuntu 12.04.5, but its failing due to a dependency on http-client:

What's weird is that http-client is installed:

What's going on here?

It seems cabal installed a too recent version of the http-client. I had the same problem and got over it by doing
cabal install --reinstall --force-reinstalls 'http-client < 0.4'
ghc-pkg unregister http-client-tls-0.2.2
ghc-pkg unregister http-client-0.4.2.2
cabal install pandoc

cabal install pandoc 'http-client < 0.4'

Building Valama IDE on Windows using MSYS2 and MingW

I am using MSYS2 to build Valama [the next generation IDE for Vala].
what the GitHub repository says that some dependencies are required.
and they are provided for Ubuntu using this command
sudo apt-get install build-essential valac-0.24 libvala-0.24-dev cmake pkg-config libgtksourceview-3.0-dev libgee-0.8-dev libxml2-dev libgdl-3-dev libgladeui-dev libclutter-gtk-1.0-dev libwebkit2gtk-3.0-dev intltool gnome-icon-theme-symbolic librsvg2-bin
and I started to download these dependencies using
pacman -S [PACKAGE NAME]
but these packages names are not the same in pacman for mingw as they are in apt-get for ubuntu
so I found that pacman supports searching for packages using this command
pacman -sS [PACKAGE NAME substring]
so after every successful installation I tested cmake .. command as in the GitHub repository
until I get stuck with this dependency
gladeui-2.0
and this what the log of cmake look like :
-- Checking for module 'gee-0.8 >= 0.10.5'
-- Found gee-0.8 , version 0.18.1
-- Update files for GtkSourceView 3.14.3
-- Use enhanced gdl-3.0 vapi to support new features with gdl-3.0 >= 3.9.91.
-- Checking for module 'gladeui-2.0'
-- No package 'gladeui-2.0' found
CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake-3.6.2/Modules/FindPkgConfig.cmake:424 (message):
A required package was not found
Call Stack (most recent call first):
/usr/share/cmake-3.6.2/Modules/FindPkgConfig.cmake:597 (_pkg_check_modules_internal)
CMakeLists.txt:201 (pkg_check_modules)
-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!
See also "/e/valama/build/CMakeFiles/CMakeOutput.log".
See also "/e/valama/build/CMakeFiles/CMakeError.log".
as you can see from the log that [gladeui-2.0] is not found on the MSYS-mingw subsystem, and I failed to find the supported library for it.
what I am asking is what is the command to install the remaining dependencies of valama, or how to build them and install them, including gladeui-2.0.
On the MSYS2 home page there are two GitHub repositories listed for issues with packages. The first is issues for msys2 packages on GitHub and the second is issues for mingw-w64 packages on GitHub. Both of these repositories list packages as sub-directories.
The most interesting are the mingw-w64 packages, which includes mingw-w64-glade and mingw-w64-glade3. So you could try installing either of those. Glade3 is the newer version, but Valarama may be dependent on the older Glade 2.

Haskell cabal issue with Mac OS X 10.11? (cannot satisfy -package-id)

I used the latest Haskell Platform 7.10.2-a (https://www.haskell.org/platform/mac.html) on Mac OS X 10.11 for El-capitan.
When I tried to install yesod with cabal install yesod, I have multiple error messages such as:

However, attoparsec library seems to be installed without problem.

All the requested packages are already installed:
attoparsec-0.13.0.1
Use --reinstall if you want to reinstall anyway.
What might be wrong?
As suggested here, the cannot satisfy -package-id error you're seeing might be due to an out of date cache.
If running ghc-pkg check warns you that your cache is out of date, then running ghc-pkg recache might resolve your issues.
I've been running into the cannot satisfy -package-id problem all morning (not with yesod, but with various other packages). ghc-pkg recache resolved my issues. Hope this helps.
This might be controversial, but imho the haskell platform and cabal (when used directly) are both essentially deprecated now with the advent of stack.
Stack will:
Automatically install haskell for you (stack setup)
Automatically sandbox (and intelligently share sandboxes between projects)
Completely avoid cabal hell (in my experience)
I could install yesod from brew.
Uninstall haskell-plaftorm
/Library/Haskell/bin/uninstall-hs thru 7.10.2
Install ghc
brew install ghc
brew link ghc
Install stackage
brew install haskell-stack
Install Yesod
stack install yesod
stack install yesod-bin
Use Yesod
Getting "Could not find module `Yesod'" when I try to run first example from Yesod book
stack runghc hello-world.hs
Use Yesod for development
I'm not sure, but I had to run stack exec yesod build first.
stack exec yesod devel.
Yesod deployment with keter
Remove the first line in config/keter.yaml
stack exec yesod keter, and you will get one binary in dist/bin that contains most of the necessary files to run.
Execute the binary as a standalone server.

dpkg error: contains ununderstood data member

I'm trying to install a jailbreak tweak using make package install but I'm receiving this error from dpkg:
dpkg-deb: file `/tmp/_theos_install.deb' contains ununderstood data member data.tar.xz , giving up
dpkg: error processing /tmp/_theos_install.deb (--install):
subprocess dpkg-deb --fsys-tarfile returned error exit status 2
Errors were encountered while processing:
/tmp/_theos_install.deb
make: *** [internal-install] Error 1
So as far as I can tell it isn't able to understand the .xz extension, but I'm not sure why that file is being created. Thanks for the help.
I found out how to fix it. In $THEOS/makefiles/package/deb.mk replace this line:
$(ECHO_NOTHING)COPYFILE_DISABLE=1 $(FAKEROOT) -r dpkg-deb -b "$(THEOS_STAGING_DIR)" "$(_THEOS_DEB_PACKAGE_FILENAME)" $(STDERR_NULL_REDIRECT)$(ECHO_END)
with this line:
$(ECHO_NOTHING)COPYFILE_DISABLE=1 $(FAKEROOT) -r dpkg-deb -Zgzip -b "$(THEOS_STAGING_DIR)" "$(_THEOS_DEB_PACKAGE_FILENAME)" $(STDERR_NULL_REDIRECT)$(ECHO_END)
The .deb file is created because you told Theos build system to do that. The package install rule of the Makefile is creating the Debian package using xz compression. Now, this kind of compression is supported by versions of dpkg equal or higher than 1.15.6.
So, in order to solve your problem, you should update dpkg to a newer version or install Theos without packaging support. Probably a simple make install will do it.
In case that updating dpkg isn't possible and you don't want to install the program without package management support, the other (more painful) method is to change the algorithm in which the package is compressed. Here you have good information about how to do this.
In my case I was building a package on Ubuntu 18.04 and trying to install that package on Debian 7 (airgapped). I had to change the line in the Makefile that read:
dpkg --build $(DESTDIR)
..to:
dpkg-deb --build -Zgzip $(DESTDIR)
Thanks Connor!
Other option that you can try is to unpack the .deb that you where triying to install and repack with no XZ compression.
Unpack:
mkdir package/ && dpkg -x package.deb package/
Pack:
dpkg-deb --build -Zgzip package/
You can rename the resulting package with:
dpkg-name -o package.deb
Or simply name the package dir with the name of your package.
Important: In orther to perform this, you need to install dpkg-dev package:
sudo apt update
sudo apt install dpkg-dev

Any ideas on how to resolve this conflicts error below?

Did you first try this with yum? yum would automagically fetch and install all dependencies.
yum update glibc
should do it for you. It does look like you're updating glibc because some other package depends on it. You could install that original package through yum (if it is available in a repository) and that would handle this and all subsequent dependencies.
yum install <your_original_sw_name>

I am unsure how to correct this issue, so any help would be much appreciated!
Did you try running with the -d flag?
You'd probably be best served by running:
sudo port install gconf
sudo port dbus-glib
etc
to see which exactly is breaking.
However, it might be possible this is using some Linux only code that might not be available in Mac OS X
