I am running a build server on Ubuntu 14.04 and recently had to upgrade
coccinelle for backports builds. So I got my hands on a debian package
(from launchpad if I recall correctly) and installing it manually gives
me following warning:
$ sudo dpkg -i coccinelle_1.0.0~rc24.deb-1_amd64.deb
Selecting previously unselected package coccinelle.
(Reading database ... 309776 files and directories currently installed.)
Preparing to unpack coccinelle_1.0.0~rc24.deb-1_amd64.deb ...
Unpacking coccinelle (1.0.0~rc24.deb-1) ...
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of coccinelle:
coccinelle depends on libpcre3 (>= 1:8.35); however:
Version of libpcre3:amd64 on system is 1:8.31-2ubuntu2.
dpkg: error processing package coccinelle (--install):
dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
Processing triggers for man-db (2.6.7.1-1) ...
Errors were encountered while processing:
coccinelle
Now spatch is installed and works just fine, but I am getting all kinds
of errors when trying to install other packages which kinda sucks. So I
tried unstalling coccinelle and just build it from github repo, but that
fails for me as well (giving 'Unbound module Pcre').
So can anyone recommend a way to deal with the coccinelle version
requirements when running on Ubuntu LTS version.
Regards,
Arend
