Title: aMule 2.2.2 released
Post by: wuischke on August 08, 2008, 04:07:03 PM
We are happy to announce the release of aMule 2.2.2 - The "Similarity." version

This is a stable release which features mainly bug fixes and improvements upon the 2.2.x series of aMule.
Particularly notable are updates to Kademlia, which bring us on the same level as eMule 0.49b.

Please see the Changelog (http://www.amule.org/wiki/index.php/Changelog_2.2.2) for a list of all changes.

Grab the sources or official packages at the download page (http://www.amule.org/files/files.php?cat=41) or check the forum (http://forum.amule.org/index.php?board=69.0) for user contributed packages.

You can get the sources also via ed2k://|file|aMule-2.2.2.tar.bz2|4669549|9E0CA7FA56560B079E92D1D47CD3FF4E|/

Does this work for PPC, cause I can't seem to get it to, it won't let me, the icon has a circle with a cross through it. Please send me the link if it does.

Hello,
 i'm a french guy so sorry for my english.
I download the new version of amule with the link ed2k, and when i click on the amule icon my mac 0s x 10.4.11 said " you can open the file because is not complete or it's trashed (i dont if it's the good word for trashed but this is the idea). After i try with the download page, and when i try to open it, same result & message.
Anybody have the same problems?
Or a idea?
Thanks
Aeternus

I have the same problem than our French friend after downloading aMule 2.2.2. Can anybody help? I have MacOs X.

Thanks!

Post by: wuischke on August 10, 2008, 02:03:42 AM
If you download the file aMule-2.2.2.tar.bz2, you download the source code, not a Mac OS X application. There is not yet a Mac OS X package I'm aware of, please wait until someone compiles it and posts a package.

Yup, same problem as the French guy.

You're no annoying flower vendor, so I won't insult you in Spanish (yet), but instead point to my message above.

I can insult him in spanish if needed.

Please do so if anyone dares to ask again. You don't know by chance some Rumanian? I'm not sure the guy was really South American, so I might have choosen the wrong language to suggest going to a warmer place...

Version 2.2.2 released - great news!
Bt - what happened with the person who used to port aMule to FreeBSD?
The FreeBSD port is still at 2.1.3:

Updates would be very nice.

Ah.....people......Grrrrr......Compiling it myself? LOL...the learning curve is too steep!
Such a downer, I mean I get to Amule.org then I noticed a new release/new version, I try to click as fast as possible then boom! No MacOSX release!

 I call it The "Unavailability" version. Just poking........I have much respect for the people that keep the wheel spinning here. I just wanted to vent. I demand a mac version!  FAEN!!!!! Ahahaha!

.............btw it is "romanian".

Regarding FreeBSD:
The old maintainer couldn't continue packaging aMule due to a strict law in his country (France) which forbids distribution of file sharing programs.(ref. in freebsd mailing list (http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=ports/99753))
There's a new maintainer, but he has apparently some issues in his private life (ref (http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=ports/125594)) and I haven't received an answer yet.

Regarding Mac OS X:
aMule Mac developers are unfortunately still as scarce as Mac users versatile with the command line. Please try http://forum.amule.org/index.php?topic=15602.0 in the meantime, I haven't had the chance to speak with the others, therefore I can't make any promises about official packages.

Regarding Romanian:
a) I have nothing against Romanians unless they are annoying flower vendors. In this case, they should rott in the sixth circle of hell.
b) Rumeno, rumano, romano, romeno, romanian and roman are all very confusing.

Thanks for the laugh and rapid answer.

OK, that explains it. I am trying to update the port myself. If I succeed, I'll let you know.

Hello aMule's users! My names is Federico  :). I have compiled now aMule 2.2.2 for Mac OS X Leopard for PPC and it seems to work.  ;D
I have tried to compile aMule 2.2.2 in Universal Binary, but, unfortunately, the compilation gave always exception.

Bye bye.

Federico

ps: I excuse for my english, I'm Italian and this is my first post in the aMule's Forum
pps: I don't know how I can upload the aMule.zip file. You have some idea? Thanks
Title: Re: aMule 2.2.2 released
Post by: wuischke on August 21, 2008, 11:00:31 PM
Please use an upload service like rapidshare for now. I'll see if I can organize some hosting and maybe there's someone else who volunteers the bandwidth.

Well, some progress. The new and updated port builds, and appear to work. However, when I try to install it, most of the man pages fails to install. I searched all the forums here, but didn't find any clues. Does anyone know which forum I should post the details and ask for help?

You can post it in compilation problems, we'll try to solve the problem there.

wuischke I have found the solution to share "my"  ;D aMule's package: you can go at http://code.google.com/p/intrattenivendo/downloads/list (http://code.google.com/p/intrattenivendo/downloads/list) and here you can download the .zip file. I hope I've been useful.

Good morning to all!  :D
Well, what do you think about my copy of aMule 2.2.2? It works good, or it gives some problem?  :)

bye bye

Seems to give some people problems: http://forum.amule.org/index.php?topic=15694.msg82919#msg82919 (Probably Tiger/Leopard incompatibilty)

Hi,
Federico's version gives on launch this Console message

"dyld: Library not loaded: /opt/local/lib/libiconv.2.dylib
  Referenced from: /Users/xja/Scaricati/aMule-2/aMule.app/Contents/MacOS/../Frameworks/libwx_macu-2.8.0.dylib
  Reason: Incompatible library version: libwx_macu-2.8.0.dylib requires version 7.0.0 or later, but libiconv.2.dylib provides version 5.0.0"

It doesn't even appear on the dock.
I'm using Tiger on Intel core duo MacBook

Bye.

Hi xja,

unfortunately my aMule's version is for PPC and I've compiled it on Leopard.
Title: Re: aMule 2.2.2 released
Post by: nielkmot on August 26, 2008, 04:52:56 PM
this may be a newbie question, but...

i notice that i am only getting about 2 or 3 kB/s (roughly the speed of dialup) per connected host on each download.  this is probably due to the queuing and bandwidth settings, which are built into amule, and which i haven't figured out how to change yet.

this is not great - most broadband users have about 60 kB/s of upload bandwidth, so transfers could go as much as 30 times faster.  (but only serving one-thirtieth as many clients at a time, obviously.)  the advantage to fewer, faster transfers, even though it means longer queues, is that fewer partial downloads get stuck in the middle in case the host system crashes or shuts down.

how do i change these settings, or is this more of a "feature request" thing?

You can change in the option how much uploadspeed you give one client. It is in the options under slot speed.

Please why, with mac os Leopard 10.5.5, when i open amule the TCP receive window (RWIN), controlled with the TCP/IP analyzer on www.speedguide.net , goes down to 65780??  Is not high enough. Normally, when amule is closed, this value is bigger (524280) so i presume that the speed of download is negatively influenced and limited!! I have noticed that this happened  also with the older versions  of amule!! Sorry for my poor english and many thanks GOOD JOB!! ;)
