Installing From RPM Without Root Access

Hi all

Im a major newbie when it comes to linux, so im hoping this problem is relatively simple.
Appologies if ive posted to the wrong section, im not quite sure if this is the right place but tbh i wasnt sure where the right section would be...

Im currently trying to install a deep learning package called Caffe (http://caffe.berkeleyvision.org/inst...#prerequisites) on my university's linux server (it is for a project in one of my classes, have my lecturers full knowledge and consent to do so)

Unfortunately caffe has quite a few dependencies and even worse i do not have root access so i cannot install them properly

Ive been told i have to find a way to install to local directories under my account but am not entirely sure how to go about this (spent alot of time googling with no luck)

Most of the prerequisites i need are on RPM (redhats package manager), so essentially i just need to know how to use RPM without root,

what command do i need to do this? using the website RPMFind i was able to locate some of the packages i need to install ( one of which can be found here http://www.rpmfind.net//linux/RPM/fe....fc23.src.html)
using info from this site, how would i go about using RPM, or is there a way to search RPM through the commandline?

the university is running redhat enterprise 6.6, if that makes a difference

Yum Local Install - Package And All Dependencies In Local Directory

I am trying to install tilp, a program for the link between a computer and a Texas Instruments calculator. I have downloaded all the packages to a local directory. I tried telling yum to install all the packages at the same time, though, the dependencies still fail to resolve (though they are all in the directory).

I don't know if it would be safe to force install without the dependencies (even though I would install them later).

Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thank you,

Make[1]: O: Command Not Found

Hi.

Running Suse 10.1 on an x86_64 machine. Trying to install a program and having some difficulty. The program is codeco 3.3. It's a format conversion program used for converting seismic waveforms such that they can be analysed by different analysis packages.

http://www.seismo.ethz.ch/products/s...3/codeco3.html

My debugging skills aren't up to much and I'm hoping someone might be able to help me out with the error. The steps involved in the installation of the package a

1. Download, gunzip and untar.

2. make config
> jp@linux:/usr/local/codeco> make config
(cd src; ./conf.csh)
found system Linux
found compiler

...this is ok, but

3. make
>jp@linux:/usr/local/codeco> make
(cd src; make)
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/local/codeco/src'
o ../bin/codeco codecomain.f gse_io.f codecoutil.f compdecomp.f sacsub.f sac_io.f mseed_io.f css_io. today.f utmepo.f epoutm.f
make[1]: o: Command not found
make[1]: [codeco] Error 127 (ignored)
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/codeco/src'

The src code itself is written in fortran and I'm using the Intel fortran compiler version 9.0.031.

I'm at a loss as to the meaning of the above error...my knowledge of linux and software installation still not very good!

Thanks

Trouble Installing VMware Tools On Centos 7 Minimum Install

So I'm on the last step of this article to run vmware-install.pl to start installation of my VMware tools and I'm getting this error.

[root@LinuxTest01 vmware-tools-distrib]# ./vmware-install.pl
-bash: ./vmware-install.pl: /usr/bin/perl: bad interpreter: No such file or directory.

I do a ls in the directory and it shows the installer in there.
[root@LinuxTest01 vmware-tools-distrib]# ls
bin doc etc FILES INSTALL installer lib vmware-install.pl


The only step I didnt do in this article is the prereq. first step because Yum is always trying to connect to the internet and my Centos 7 box is on a classified network with no internet access.

No Ffmpeg Or Avconv In Linux Mint Repos

Hello everybody

I am running Linux Mint 17.1 Rebecca with the Cinnamon Desktop.

I have experiences with the ubuntu derivatives and ffmpeg and avconv are always avavilable the repos, this time both aren't available

Here are the commands I typed:

apt-get update ; apt-get upgrade

After the packages were upgraded. I ran these commands. Below are there outputs.

Quote:
apt-get install ffmpeg
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package ffmpeg 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 'ffmpeg' has no installation candidate

apt-get install avconv
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package avconv
This nevered happened to me before with linux mint in prior versions.

Any ideas?
