Install issue when trying install ClamTk 5.11-1 legacy_all.deb

[roblon2010]

Trying to upgrade my out of date virus scanner to this version 5.11-1 legacy _all.deb. on Ubuntu 12.04

I took my information from this site on how to upgrade to this version.

https://bitbucket.org/dave_theunsub/clamtk/src/master/README

I find that the programme is unable to install correctly via Ubuntu Software center, I then used the removal command to remove my old vs version from the system

" dpkg --purge clamtk " - removed my old version okay.

Then I went into Ubuntu Software center to install the file from here, and this installed but stating that it had to repair the files

This the statement given when opening the "repair " tab

" libcommon-sense-perl libjson-perl libjson-xs-perl libtext-csv-perl libtext-csv-xs-perl python-nautilus "

I then tried uninstall the file and was given these statements, when the file wouldn't uninstall

Check if you are using third party repositories. If so disable them, since they are a common source of problems.
Furthermore run the following command in a Terminal: apt-get install -f

Taken from the details menu
The following packages have unmet dependencies:

clamtk: Depends: libtext-csv-perl but it is not installed
        Depends: libjson-perl but it is not installed
        Depends: python-nautilus but it is not installed

I will try and use the apt-get install -f command to see if this will improve situation, and try the install steps again.
And will report back with any progress made

Hi,

What about "dpkg -i clamtk_5.11-1_all.deb"? That's what I used when testing it. Admittedly, I did not test this version with the Ubuntu Software center. Does the software center usually work?

Thanks,

Oops - that should be:

dpkg -i clamtk_5.11-1.legacy_all.deb

Thanks,

Installed clamtk _5.11-1 all now okay, just need to the know the steps of howto upgrade the AV signatures behind a proxy server. I use a public library for internet connections

Hi,

Are you sure you need to add a proxy server/port?

Anyhoo, if you need to add one, click on the "Network" icon and add the information in there.

Thanks,
Dave M
