I recently installed v9.10 (kernel version 2.6.31-14) and and trying to setup the desktop machine for some specific development. I been using 7.10 and 8.10 for the last couple years without issues like this.
Most of the packages I am trying to install state they are not available or obsolete?
I looked through the package manager. In fact the list seems MUCH smaller than it was under 7.10 and 8.10.
It also shows every package in the package manager as already installed.
Under development I have gcc, gdb, binutils, etc. but there is no build-essentials or bison or automake, etc.
I get the same result when I try apt-get - it fails to find the packages I have come to know and love.
automake
autoconf
gawk
awk
bison
All are missing from the package manager and apt-get install fails too.
What am I missing.
