dpkg error processing jailkit

[vogelor]

i tryed to install jailkit as described in /docs/INSTALL_DEBIAN_5.0.txt

means:

apt-get install build-essential autoconf automake1.9 libtool flex bison debhelper
cd /tmp
wget http://olivier.sessink.nl/jailkit/jailkit-2.7.tar.gz
tar xvfz jailkit-2.7.tar.gz
cd jailkit-2.7
./debian/rules binary
cd ..
dpkg -i jailkit_2.7-1_i386.deb
rm -rf jailkit-2.7*
after some scrolling lines of information i got these error

dpgk: error processing jilkit_2.7-1_i386.deb (--install):
cannot acces archive: NO such file or directory

i never used dpkg directly so i think, the problem is, that dpkg is not configured well?

can anybody help me?

thanks

Olli

dpkg does not has to be configured. Most likely there was a compile error before so that the pacakge has not been created. Please check the compile output before this error if you find anything unusual.

:mad:ok i got it - never use copy and paste without thinking what u do!:mad:

i have a amd-system, so the created file is named

jailkit_2.7-1_amd64.deb
instead of
jailkit_2.7-1_i386.deb

@till
maybe we have to change (docs/INSTALL_DEBIAN.txt to

dpkg -i jailkit_2.7-1_*.deb ?

I just did the same on ppc!

+1 for changing the instructions

Updated the install text in svn.
