Hello everyone,

I get an error when I try to install the PuTTY 0.65 package:

Code: Select all

Installation of pkg-putty (=0.65-2) (task #16);Exception: Error during install of pkg-putty (=0.65-2): errors in packages [[u'pkg-putty (=0.65-2)', PackageEntry('pkg-putty','0.65-2')]];2017-03-21T14:23:37.041000;"Installing pkg-putty
Exception: Error during install of pkg-putty (=0.65-2): errors in packages [[u'pkg-putty (=0.65 2)',PackageEntry('pkg-putty','0.65-2')]]
When I look at the processes on the client machine, I see a 32-bit putty/setup process running continuously. I have to kill this process if I want other packages to install.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks in advance :)

PuTTY 68 has just been installed as an MSI.

I haven't pushed it to the main tranquil.it repository yet.

You can still test it here:

Okay, thanks. I just saw that the putty 0.68 package is available in the main repository, but it's not updating via wapt-get upgrade (it tells me there are no updates for 0.65-2). Is that normal?

Okay, I finally answered my own question, it worked. I restarted my computer, and `wapt-get upgrade` successfully updated everything :)

For your information,

an update must precede an upgrade; otherwise, the agent will not know if updates are available.

https://www.wapt.fr/fr/doc/Theorique/index.html#upgrade

An update is performed by default every 120 minutes:
