Hi all,
I'm currently sitting on a plane having made a huge mistake yesterday. I
have a server that runs constantly, supplying data to clients on a daily
basis. The server is Ubuntu 12.04 and I had successfully installed and
have been running PostGIS 2.1 and Postgresql 9.3 for the last 3 months.
Prior to leaving for my vacation I thought it would be great to install
QGIS so I could remotely view my database. The problem is the QGIS install
altered my postgis and libgdal1 dependencies.
Here are the commands I issued that got me into this mess:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install qgis pythin-qgis
sudo apt-get install qgis python-qgis
sudo apt-get install qgis
sudo apt-get install python-qgis
gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv 47765B75
gpg --export --armor 47765B75 | sudo apt-key add -
sudo apt-get install qgis python-qgis
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install qgis python-qgis
sudo apt-get install python-software-properties
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntugis/ubuntugis-unstable
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install qgis python-qgis qgis-plugin-grass
sudo apt-get install libssl0.9.8
I am uncertain how to proceeed because I remember something similar
happening years ago (irony of ironies) and it ended up corrupting my Ubuntu
server when I tried to repair.
I'm looking for some sage advise to correct this a painless as possible.
Is it safe to perform an apt-get autoremove?
Please help an overstressed dad enjoy his vacation trip to Disney with his
wife and kids. I promise I won't go installing packages all willy nilly in
the future.
Thanks
Willem
