sudo apt-get install code-oss / unable to locate package

[Peouse]

Hello,

I am sad because I cant get VS Code to work on Raspbian Stretch

I tried to use the Installer : . <( wget -O - https://code.headmelted.com/installers/apt.sh )

However the apt-get install seems to fail..I get this message :

The repository is setup! You can now install packages. Repository install complete. Installing Visual Studio Code... Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done E: Unable to locate package code-oss Visual Studio Code install failed.

Any idea what could possibly go wrong ? Thank you for your help !

same!

[muddyraven]

I have the same issue too. Has anyone found a solution?

[jartim]

I'm guessing code-oss is a package dependency that @headmelted has installed on his machine, but that isn't included in the build. I've tried locating it manually but no luck so far.

Try:

sudo apt-get install -y apt-transport-https

(This needs to be done inside the chroot.)

He said that at https://github.com/headmelted/codebuilds/issues/32#issuecomment-313777456

But, it's doesn't work for me.

You can install from the jessie package. Run the installer then edit the sources list

sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list.d/headmelted_codebuilds.list

Replace 'stretch' with 'jessie' and save the file. (CTRL+o, CTRL+x).

Update package lists, then install.

sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install code-oss

Note: this will install the 1.14 version

@markpatterson27 I get the following with jessie (i'm on raspbian/stretch) Pi 3 B+

This worked for me, Code - OSS 1.14 is now installed on my Pi 3 running Raspbian Stretch.

Does anyone know how to now update to the latest version, isn't it 1.23/24 on Raspbian?

Many thanks for the help!

[muddyraven]

1.28.0 is the latest version of Code - OSS for Raspbian. I'm very happy to have 1.14 working for now, but any help on how to upgrade if currently possible would be appreciated.

[muddyraven]

FYI if I change 'jessie' back to 'stretch' in the sources list after installing, I receive the same errors as @kbroughton.

[markpatterson27]

You could manually install Steve Desmond's build. He put 1.28.0 up a few hours ago. I don't know if it works as well as headmelted's build (haven't started using it yet), but you can run both builds beside each other. https://github.com/stevedesmond-ca/vscode-arm

Thank you, I did install earlier whilst trying to troubleshoot, and it seems to be as responsive. I haven't spent much time with it yet though.

[headmelted]

Just getting a look at this now. Will come back with an update as soon as I have a fix (pretty sure I know what the issue is!)

[muddyraven]

Thanks Jay, really appreciate all your work on this repository.

[sedlund]

the gpg key for the repo isnt getting installed by the script. you can see the fix here:

https://github.com/headmelted/codebuilds/issues/61#issuecomment-430128711

do not change the repo from 'xenial' it works fine on debian stretch.

the script is using apt update -qy quiet is hiding the error about the missing gpg key for the repo

[ghost]

code-oss is in the arm repo - are you on arm or amd64

[ItZskyler]

I wanna install it on my RPi, can i?

[jongus]

Hi @netmasta10bt ! Well, I use the script: curl -s https://packagecloud.io/install/repositories/headmelted/codebuilds/script.deb.sh | sudo bash and I get "E: Unable to locate package code-oss" when running "sudo apt-get install code-oss"

When I run "sudo apt-get update" I get: ... Reading package lists... Done W: The repository 'https://packagecloud.io/headmelted/codebuilds/raspbian stretch Release' does not have a Release file. N: Data from such a repository can't be authenticated and is therefore potentially dangerous to use. N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details.

Any input that can help me?

I suggest getting the package from https://github.com/stevedesmond-ca/vscode-arm/releases as mentioned above

[headmelted]

Hi folks, I'm working actively on this currently.

The *.deb packages are available at https://github.com/headmelted/codebuilds/releases - installing from there might be the best bet in the meantime while I patch up the repo!

Trying to install VS OSS on RPI 4: Installed "code-oss_1.32.0-1550644722_armhf.deb" from https://github.com/headmelted/codebuilds/releases It opens a black vs oss screen with no menus. Any help would be appreciated thx.

I did downloaded this file (the arm64) but when I tried to run it and install it it gave back this error:

A package could not be found that allows the action to complete.

I don't know which package it needs.
