Re: [Bug 990314] Re: libzip1 missing in (12.04 Precise Pangolin)

 

What does that actually mean? Firstly, I'm not running 12.04, I'm 
running 14.04. Secondly, all I know is that Ubuntu keeps telling me that 
there's a problem, and I keep experiencing weird problems such as not 
being able to access my LAN unless I reboot, and the system telling me 
that various apps and services have ceased to run. Finally, today it 
tells me that there was an unspecified system problem, and asks whether 
I want to report it. I reported it, and then you send me a reply that is 
basically nonsensical unless I actually have sufficient knowledge to fix 
the problem myself. Which, if I follow, is what you're actually telling 
me to do.

I changed over to Ubuntu Linux after years of supporting, selling, 
training, and using Windows because I was sick of spending so much time 
trying to sort out OS/software issues, rather than doing the actual work 
that I needed to do. Recently, I'm finding that Ubuntu seems to have 
gone the same way. I'm constantly having to reboot, Google solutions to 
stupid little problems that stop me from doing what needs to be done, etc.

If you're getting the subtle impression that I'm feeling rather pissed 
off, you're right.

I'd appreciate it if you'd please provide some usable (read non-expert) 
information on what is actually going on, and what is required.

Title:
  libzip1 missing in (12.04 Precise Pangolin)

Status in libzip package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Hi. I see libzip1 has been removed from Ubuntu as of 12.04. It would
  be useful to still have this available, because there are external
  applications which depend on it, for example Kobo Desktop (for
  registering Kobo e-readers) and MySQL Workbench:
  http://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?p=1609547#post1609547
  and http://setupguides.blogspot.co.uk/2012/04/install-mysql-workbench-
  on-ubuntu-1204.html

  Debian Unstable still includes a libzip1 package:
  packages.debian.org/libzip1

  Thanks.
