Hi! I'd like to check out tinyos for the first time. I followed the instructions from the wiki here: http://docs.tinyos.net/tinywiki/index.php/Main_Page That in the 'Getting Started' with linux chapter request to add the repository from this address: deb http://tinyos.stanford.edu/tinyos/dists/ubuntu lucid main
But after installation I ran into that problem with the msp430 GPIO thingy mentioned in here: http://mail.millennium.berkeley.edu/pipermail/tinyos-help/2012-July/055238.html Some quick checks show, that there has been installed revision 4.5.x of msp430-gcc. Following that thread I requested to install the legacy version but that threw me back to the old things of tinyos and msp430-gcc. I postponed the tinyos thing a bit, installed msp430-gcc revision 4.6.3 from debian and did some work. Now, some days later I retried installation of tinyos again. I cleaned out tinyos via dpkg and added the reositories from here: http://tinyprod.net/debian-dev/README.html That failed completely as it on one hand tries to reinstall msp430-gcc with an 2011 release (what I guess is 4.5.x again) and it misses its own dependencies. It fails installing tinyod-2.1.1 or 2.1.2 by missing tinyos-required-all and others that are claimed uninstallable. So I switched back to tinyod.stanfort.edu/tinyos/dists/ubuntu lucid main and reinstalled 2.1.2 again. It installed the tinyos-2.1.2 files but it also tries to reinstall the existing msp430 binutils, libs and avr and all. The installation of these targets crash including an apport crash report. Funny is, that I can now compile the first steps examples like Blinky or Hello. But my apt system is stuck now. It still wants to install all the things I already have: # apt-get install -f Paketlisten werden gelesen... Fertig Abhängigkeitsbaum wird aufgebaut Statusinformationen werden eingelesen... Fertig Abhängigkeiten werden korrigiert... Fertig Die folgenden zusätzlichen Pakete werden installiert: msp430-binutils-tinyos msp430-gcc-tinyos msp430-libc-tinyos msp430mcu-tinyos Die folgenden NEUEN Pakete werden installiert: msp430-binutils-tinyos msp430-gcc-tinyos msp430-libc-tinyos msp430mcu-tinyos 0 aktualisiert, 4 neu installiert, 0 zu entfernen und 0 nicht aktualisiert. 7 nicht vollständig installiert oder entfernt. Es müssen 51,7 MB an Archiven heruntergeladen werden. Nach dieser Operation werden 0 B Plattenplatz zusätzlich benutzt. Möchten Sie fortfahren [J/n]? I don't want to have msp430-gcc version 4.5.x or older back again! My sources.list entry is like this: deb http://tinyos.stanford.edu/tinyos/dists/ubuntu lucid main # deb http://tinyprod.net/debian-dev squeeze main # deb http://tinyprod.net/repos/debian squeeze main deb http://tinyprod.net/repos/debian msp430-46 main Any idea to sort that out?
