Talk:Raspbian

I tried to follow this how-to but endend in several trouble

1. enabling backports: package tar (1.29b-1~bpo8+1) is broken / works not on raspbian 8.1 jessie

2. excluding tar from upgrade: lot of messages 'Illegal instruction' during upgrade; at the end any command lead to 'Illegal instruction' after power/down system does not boot, kernel panic

Without backports zoneminder 1.26 was installed from repo, it works after adding link for apache.

My hw: rpi Model B1 512 MB

2017-04-21 heredago Raspberry Pi 2 Model B I also cannot seem to get past this even when using this "aptitude hold tar"

Package 'tar' (tar (1.29b-1~bpo8+1)) seems to be broken. exclude tar from upgrade aptitude hold tar

Check to be sure everything is up to date for the raspbian distribution apt-get upgrade apt-get dist-upgrade
