yes, indeed :) > "error: 99: Cannot assign requested address" - again, this indicates > EADDRNOTAVAIL, suggesting that 127.0.0.1 is missing on the system. But does it mean, I have to install bind to use mariadb-server?

Well, in my /etc/networks I have the line <quote> loopback 127.0.0.0 </quote> . But if I use the address, the router has assigned to my Desktop PC (192.168.X.YYY ... ;) ), it works :) Then I can use "apt-get -f install" to fix the installation. But still wondering, if this could not be fixed (say: a pre-install script, which checks the system for a working network and/or which IP address is assigned to the machine or the like ... ;) ), so lusers do not have to do "bad hacks" to install their mariadb-server package ... ;) Thanks again for your help and have a nice day Thomas. -- BOFH excuse #443: Zombie processes detected, machine is haunted. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~maria-developers Post to : maria-developers@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~maria-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
