apt tips and tricks

apt configurations are located in /etc/apt/ following is a breakdown for the different directories

Main Components

  1. sources.list: This is the main list of repositories that APT will use for software package management. Each line in this file specifies a different repository. Ref: man 5 sources.list

  2. sources.list.d/: This directory allows you to add additional repository lists without modifying the main sources.list file. Each file in this directory should end with .list and contain one or more repository lines, just like the main sources.list file. Ref: man 5 sources.list

npm common issues

NPM package installation behind a proxy

While installing yo behind proxy you may get issues as described in this issue The root cause is that yo is trying to connect to the internet while doing the sanity checks on your system using a global proxy as described here and there

I was not able to change the GLOBAL_AGENT_ENVIRONMENT_VARIABLE_NAMESPACE from undefined to an empty variable from the powershell, so I edited the node_modules\got\index.js:requestAsEventEmitter(opts):~22 and added the following line

	process.env.GLOBAL_AGENT_ENVIRONMENT_VARIABLE_NAMESPACE="";
