  • [SOLVED] Ubuntu Install and uninstall

    Some times ago, Ozone worked well on my Ubuntu machine. After no more use for reasons of Corona, the system was abandoned and cannot connect to target anymore.
    As Ozone shows a big version step from V2.70.5 to V3.30, I decided to take the opportunity to uninstall and start new installation from scratch.
    Following the Ozone User Manual, page 30, chapter 2.1.4 Uninstallation on Linux, I tried the suggested method for Debian systems as Ubuntu should be from that flavour.

    sudo dpkg -remove Ozone
    dpkg: error: conflicting actions -e (--control) and -r (--remove)
    Type dpkg --help for help about installing and deinstalling packages ;
    Use 'apt' or 'aptitude' for user-friendly package management;
    Type dpkg -Dhelp for a list of dpkg debug flag values;
    Type dpkg --force-help for a list of forcing options;
    Type dpkg-deb --help for help about manipulating *.deb files;
    Options marked produce a lot of output - pipe it through 'less' or 'more' !
    jv@JamesWebb:~$

    Changing the options to > sudo dpkg -r Ozone reports hundreds of file missing; assuming package has no files currently installed
    After this, Ozone still worked but dpkg does not know anything about and Ozone is not available in the Gnome Application Manager,

    >dpkg -s Ozone
    >dpkg-query: package 'ozone' is not installed and no information is available
    >Use dpkg --info (= dpkg-deb --info) to examine archive files.
    >dpkg --info Ozone
    >dpkg-deb: error: failed to read archive 'Ozone': No such file or directory

    Assume a case sensitive problem for the package name was also not successfull:

    jv@JamesWebb:~$ sudo apt remove ozone
    Reading package lists... Done
    Building dependency tree... Done
    Reading state information... Done
    E: Unable to locate package ozone

    As Ozone still worked, it can be located well:

    jv@JamesWebb:~$ locate Ozone
    /home/jv/.config/SEGGER/Ozone.conf
    /home/jv/.local/share/Trash/files/Ozone.deb
    /home/jv/.local/share/Trash/files/Ozone_Linux_V270e_x86_64.deb
    /home/jv/.local/share/Trash/info/Ozone.deb.trashinfo
    /home/jv/.local/share/Trash/info/Ozone_Linux_V270e_x86_64.deb.trashinfo
    /home/jv/.local/share/Trash/info/UM08025_Ozone.pdf.trashinfo
    /home/jv/Desktop/UM08025_Ozone.pdf
    /home/jv/Downloads/Ozone_Linux_V330a_x86_64.deb

    /opt/SEGGER/ozone/2.70.5/Doc/UM08025_Ozone.pdf
    /usr/bin/Ozone
    jv@JamesWebb:~$

    Finally I was successful in removing Ozone with

    jv@JamesWebb:~$ sudo apt --purge remove ozone:amd64
    [sudo] password for jv:

    Ozone 2.70 disappeared but I cannot understand what went wrong.

    Jlink V660c is still present, but cannot connect to USB Jlink or JTrace cables.
    Assume the correct installation method is:


    > sudo dpkg ..install ozone.deb

    Is the Jlink installation a prerequisite to use Ozone ?
    What is your prefered method to install / uninstall Jlink / Ozone ?

  • Hi Jan_vi,

    when testing Ozone on Ubuntu I use the following commands:

    Source Code

    1. sudo apt-get install ./Ozone_Linux_V330a_x86_64.deb
    2. sudo apt-get remove ozone


    On a blank machine J-Link software should be installed before the 1st debug session is started with Ozone. If this is not the case the J-Link/J-Trace may not be found.

    Does that answer your question?

    Best regards

  • Thanks, works perfect and should replace the dpkg -remove instructions from the manual.

    There was also a simple trick to connect the target:
    On Windows you have to invoke jlink while Linux works with JLinkExe
    what is not JLink.Exe nor a a Windows Exe file.

    On Linux jlink is the OpenSDK Java Linker what is never successfull in communication with the jlink cable.
