[Software] Ser2net unable to install with Bullseye
[Software] Ser2net unable to install with Bullseye
Hi,
I have Raspberry Pi4 and trying make this serial console server so I can access console port of Cisco's router. My pi is install with GNU/Linux 11 (Bullseye).
Debian version: 11.5
aarch64 - 64 bit version for my pi
When I run: "sudo apt-get install ser2net" and keep getting this error:
E: Unable to locate package ser2net
Can someone advise what I can do to install ser2net on my pi? Thanks.

Hi,

I've reviewed and updated the sources.list and here is the latest error, which is similar to what I had before. Any suggestion is much appreciated.

Re: [Software] Ser2net unable to install with Bullseye
Yes, it's in the repo--Debian calls that arch "arm64".
Have you run "sudo apt update" yet to populate your package database?

Re: [Software] Ser2net unable to install with Bullseye
Looks like packages are up to date(see below).
Can someone helps confirm Ser2net does work with Bullseye Debian version 11.5? Wonder if there is a way manually to get Ser2net package install?
@sunrat: Gladly to provide "terminal text output outside code tags", if you can provide cmd or instruction how to do so.

Re: [Software] Ser2net unable to install with Bullseye
Hello,
From the output in the previous post, it seems that in your RPi two repository for "a=stable,n=bullseye" are configured :
Both of them have the same priority (500) and in this case, if I recall correctly, the first configured/listed repository is used (http://archive.raspberrypi.org/debian , in your case). Unfortunately, this repository does not host the package you wish to install (that is hosted by http://deb.debian.org/debian , instead)
In the /etc/apt/sources.list you sent in a previous message, the repository http://archive.raspberrypi.org/debian was not listed: have you added it afterwards ? Or is it configured in a file under /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/ ? You can comment the http://archive.raspberrypi.org/debian repository and then issue the following commands:
The ser2net should have a candidate version for installation.

Re: [Software] Ser2net unable to install with Bullseye
Hello Aki,
Appreciate for you providing comment on my issue. I've might have update the sources.list several times while trying to see if I can get ser2net installed.
However, a user from Raspberry Pi Forum indicated that I have corruption on my index files and some of the package information is missing. User suggested that I delete current lists, run the update to rebuild all the indexes then install ser2net is a success. Here are the steps.
sudo rm /var/lib/apt/lists/*_*
sudo apt update
apt policy ser2net
sudo apt install ser2net

Did you run those other commands? What happened?
Also you should post the code text inside the code tags not after them, as I just did in the first line of this post.
