keepass installation

[timjay73]

just switched over yesterday and everything has gone as smooth as i expected it to. however, i installed keepass v0.2.2. it installed fine but i cant find it anywhere. i searched for it but nothing came up. i went through file folders and found stuff for it but i couldnt find anything to launch the app. then i went through command line (i think that's what we're calling it) with "keepass" and this came up:

xchech@xchech-laptop:~$ keepass
keepass: error while loading shared libraries: libQtXml.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
xchech@xchech-laptop:~$

so i tried something and got this:

xchech@xchech-laptop:~$ sudo apt-get install libQtXml.so.4
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
E: Couldn't find package libQtXml.so.4

i just tried it again and now i get this:

xchech@xchech-laptop:~$ sudo apt-get install libQtXml.so.4
E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavail able)
E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another proc ess using it?
xchech@xchech-laptop:~$

now i got nothing left. i am tapped out on searching the forums. any help would be very much appreciated. this is so fun. it's like getting on a computer for the first time again. a madonna song just popped into my head...like a virgin...sorry about that. i digress

no one?

okay i uninstalled what i could findof keepass through synaptic. now when i go into synaptic and search for it to try to reinstall, it is nowhere to be found. i also cant install through terminal either. all of the codes i have found never work. so i'm back to square one.

here's what i've done so far:
D/Led both the application bundle v0.2.2 and the DEB binary package v0.2.2.

now, from what i have read, the application bundle has everything that i need. how do i install it? i cant seem to find anyway to install it. i cant find it through terminal or synaptic (and yes i have both universe and multiverse repositories added). i am at a lost and i really need to have keepass installed/usable b/c all my p/w are saved through it. as of now, everytime i need to get somewhere i have to boot up XP, which is always a joy.

anyone have a clue about what to do?

There is a package keepassx in the universe repo, is that the one you're looking for? You'll have to enable universe to make aptitude or synaptic find it.

If that's not it, what format is that application bundle?

[timjay73]

thank you so much for your help. i have added/enabled all of the repositories in synaptic>settings>repositories (software preferences) just to make sure. i searched for keepassx and nothing showed up.

then i tried this:
xchech@xchech-laptop:~$ sudo apt-get install keepassx
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Package keepassx is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
E: Package keepassx has no installation candidate

that's as far as i got.
the file name for the application bundle that i d/led is KeePassX-02.2-bin.tar.gz
i also d/led DEB binary package KeePassX-02.2.deb

[Ramses de Norre]

Oh now I see, the package is in edgy repos but not in dapper repos.. So I assume you are using dapper?
The best thing probably is to try installing the ubuntu deb package which you can get here.
It's possible that some dependencies can't be resolved with dapper repos, if so you can try your downloaded deb package with

sudo dpkg -i KeePassX-02.2.deb

in the directory that file is in.
And the last resort would be installing from source with the tarball.
But try the others first.

again, thank you for taking time with me.
1. i downloaded a new keepassx from the link provided. it didnt quite install - Errorependency is not satisfiable:libc6

2. so then i did something that i thought/hoped would work - sudo apt-get install libc6. apparently, i already have the newest version.

3.tried the code you provided and got this:
xchech@xchech-laptop:~$ sudo dpkg -i KeePassX-02.2.deb
dpkg: error processing KeePassX-02.2.deb (--install):
cannot access archive: No such file or directory
Errors were encountered while processing:
KeePassX-02.2.deb
xchech@xchech-laptop:~$

[Ramses de Norre]

You need to execute that command in the directory containing the deb file or proceed the filename with the right path to it.
The dependency problems with the edgy package are normal.. I already expected them.

[timjay73]

and how do i do that? right now the file is on my desktop. how would i write the command?

i tried this and multiple variations that i could think of but with no luck.

sudo dpkg -i ~/Desktop/KeePassX-0.2.2.deb ??

you're going to have to really dumb this down for me. and trust me, i need it.

[Ramses de Norre]

You still get the "No such file or directory" error?
Try to use tab completion more to be sure you've got the right filename and path.
So type in sudo dpkg -i ~/Desktop/ and double tab to see all available files, now check whether the deb is there too and type the first couple of letters, then press tab to complete.
That way you should have the path and filename correct.

[timjay73]

did it just like you said and here's what i got:
xchech@xchech-laptop:~$ sudo dpkg -i /home/xchech/Desktop/KeePassX-0.2.2.deb
Password:

xchech@xchech-laptop:~$ keepass
keepass: error while loading shared libraries: libQtXml.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory


i wasnt sure if it was installed b/c i couldnt find it anywhere. that's why i typed in "keepass".
now how do i get it to open or do i need to something with libQtXml.so.4? i tried installing and got this

xchech@xchech-laptop:~$ sudo apt-get install libQtXml.so.4
