Hi, Just put this package on "hold". Everything is explained here: <a href="http://www.debianadmin.com/how-to-prevent-a-package-from-being-updated-in-">http://www.debianadmin.com/how-to-prevent-a-package-from-being-updated-in-</a> debian.html <div>It's for debian but will work in k/ubuntu as well. </div><div> </div> <div class="gmail_quote">2013/1/21 kubuntu <<a href="mailto:kubuntu@appjaws.plus.com" target="_blank">kubuntu@appjaws.plus.com</a>> <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">Hi all, I have recently installed lazarus-1.0.4-0.x86_64 fpc-2.6.0-2.fc17.x86_64 and fpc-src-2.6.0-2.fc17.x86_64. I downloaded these x86_64 versions in rpm format and converted to deb using alien then installed using apt-get. This all worked well and I am able to use lazarus without any problems. However, software updates wanted to update fpc to 2.6.0-6, which I did. I was then left with a non working lazarus because it could not find the fpc executables, I search my computer and could not find them. My original installation had them in /usr/lib64 but the update did not put them there, in fact I'm not sure that the update is even for a x86_64 system. So I removed the fpc software and reinstalled my deb package and all is working again. I am still getting requests to update fpc. How can I disable the system from requesting update of just this software? Hope all is clear Paul -- ---This message has been sent using Thunderbird on kubuntu--- -- kubuntu-users mailing list <a href="mailto:kubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com" target="_blank">kubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com</a> Modify settings or unsubscribe at: <a href="https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-users" target="_blank">https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-users</a> </blockquote></div>
