Title: aMule 64 bit
Post by: stephen71 on June 09, 2006, 12:03:43 PM

Hi,
      I try to install aMule for suse 10.1 64 bit but I don't found the package for this distro.
I try this package "aMule-2.1.1-1.pm.2.x86_64.rpm" but i have problems the package need this version of binutils "binutils-2.16.91.0.2-8.x86_64" and i have the new vesion "binutils-2.16.91.0.5-18x86_64".
 
You have some ideas?

Thanks at all.

Would you mind to compile a package on your own? It's not as difficult as it sounds.

First you need your system build-ready. This means you have installed all packages which are neccessary for the compilation of aMule.
This are gcc, gcc-c++, gtk, gtk-devel, zlib-devel, libpng-devel, gd-devel and wxgtk-devel which you can install via YAST.

By typing the following code into the terminal you should be able to compile a RPM for Suse 10.1.
 

Code: [Select]

wget [URL]http://download2.berlios.de/amule/aMule-2.1.2.tar.bz2[/URL]
rpmbuild -ta aMule-2.1.2.tar.bz2
(Please excuse any mistakes in my explanation, unfortunately didn't I use Suse for a while. Please ask should there be any problems.)

Ciao

@wuischke: That doesn't work because the 2.1.2 release tarball contains a CVS spec file which "shadows" the release spec file.

@stephen71: You are trying to install a 10.0 RPM on a 10.1 system. Please download the package again and make sure that the URL you are using has a 10.1 in it and not a 10.0.

I'm really sorry, I didn't know about this error. :(

Let's tray another way. (Execute this in the same directory where you've downloaded the archive)

Code: [Select]

tar xjvfo aMule-2.1.2.tar.bz2 aMule-2.1.2/aMule.spec
mv aMule-2.1.2/aMule.spec aMule.spec
rpmbuild -ba aMule.spec

stephen71, this last error is because gettext-devel is not installed on your system. Therefore no translations are built, but they are expected to be present => Problem.

If you really want to build aMule yourself, install gettext-devel and do it again, or use this RPM:

http://packman.iu-bremen.de/suse/10.1/x86_64/aMule-2.1.1-1.pm.2.x86_64.rpm

Ok. now is working.

These are the packages that I have had to install:

        gtk2-devel
   wxGTK-compat
   wxGTK-devel
   wxGTK-gl
   aMule-CVS-20060612.tar.bz2
        gettext-devel

and 3 hours in order to build the file .rpm with this command
rpmbuild -ta aMule-2.1.3.tar.bz2

In the directory /usr/src/packages/RPMS/x86_64 I have the file
aMule-CVS-20060612.x86_64.rpm
 :D :D :D :D :D

I have already used this rpm aMule-2.1.1.1.pm.2.x86_64 but don't working for suse 10.1

Thanks a lot.

Is there again the cvs-spec in the release?
*checks*
Yes, it is. I guess I'll have to remind the devs before they release 2.2.0 with the same problem. ;)
