SUSE 10.1 (i586) - alternative
« on: June 15, 2006, 07:23:05 AM »

Hi,

upon request I'm posting an alternative package of aMule 2.1.3 for SUSE 10.1 (i586). It is statically linked to wxGTK 2.6.3 (Unicoded). It might be useful for people running aMule together with existing packages of other wxWidgets-based applications (aMule + VLC, Audacity, BitTorrent pre-5.0, ...).

http://rapidshare.de/files/23093050/aMule-2.1.3-0.i586.rpm.html

And this is the matching debuginfo package:

http://rapidshare.de/files/23093685/aMule-debuginfo-2.1.3-0.i586.rpm.html

The debuginfo package provides the debugging symbols needed to generate a backtrace. It is very large (> 20 MB), so you will most likely not want to install it, unless you are asked to post a backtrace if aMule crashes for you.

Don't forget that you need to install the following packages from the official SUSE repository first in order to run aMule:

binutils
gd (this one is not installed by default, get it here)
glib2
glibc
gtk2
libgcc
libpng
libstdc++
pango
readline
xorg-x11-libs
zlib

Menu entries will be created under Applications -> Network -> P2P. Have a lot of fun! ;)

There is a RPM of amule for SuSE Linux x64?

If yes, where I can found RPM?

If not, the 32 bit is working on SuSE x64?
If not, there is some who want help me to compile from source to create RPM for this version?

Some note:
I know a little of compiling under linux, but only a little... :-)
I know how to recompile kernel
I have compiled other packages before, some ok and some not
I have some time to spent, but not whole weeks... :-)

These packages are for 32-bit x86 PCs and will *not* work on x86_64 systems. That's because some of its dependencies are not provided as 32-bit versions by SUSE (SUSE provides only the most important libraries as 32-bit versions for x86_64, but aMule needs more libraries).

Installing aMule from source is not difficult, please refer to

http://www.amule.org/wiki/index.php/Compilation_Installation

and ask specific questions in the "Compilation Problems" forum.

I have rebuilt my packages and made a real repository of them - no rapidshare.de any more. They are signed and have repository metadata, so you can use dependency resolving package managers to install them.

The repository URL is:

http://gw78.sam-city.com/suse/10.1

wuischke, forgive me, the idea and even the webspace provider is stolen from you. ;)

- YaST users:

Use YaST -> Software -> Installation source -> Add -> HTTP and enter the following data:

Protocol: HTTP
Server Name: gw78.sam-city.com
Directory on Server: suse/10.1
Authentication: Anonymous

It will ask whether you want to import my GPG key. Do it, afterwards you can install aMule via YaST -> Software -> Software Management.

- smart users:

You have to import my GPG key manually, use the command
Code: [Select]
rpm --import http://gw78.sam-city.com/suse/10.1/repodata/repomd.xml.keyThen create a new channel with this information:
Code: [Select]
[aMule]
type = rpm-md
name = aMule and related packages
baseurl = http://gw78.sam-city.com/suse/10.1
Now you can install aMule like any other package:
Code: [Select]
smart install aMuleOr use the GUI if you prefer and if it is installed:
Code: [Select]
smart --gui
- yum users:

Import my GPG key:
Code: [Select]
rpm --import http://gw78.sam-city.com/suse/10.1/repodata/repomd.xml.keyCreate a file /etc/yum.repos.d/aMule.repo with the following content:
Code: [Select]
[aMule]
name=aMule and related packages
baseurl=http://gw78.sam-city.com/suse/10.1
enabled=1
gpgcheck=1
Now you can install aMule like any other package:
Code: [Select]
yum install aMule
- apt users:

Make sure that your apt version supports repomd.

Import my GPG key:
Code: [Select]
rpm --import http://gw78.sam-city.com/suse/10.1/repodata/repomd.xml.keyAdd this line to your /etc/apt/sources.list:
Code: [Select]
repomd http://gw78.sam-city.com/suse/10.1Now you can install aMule like any other package:
Code: [Select]
apt install aMuleIf you prefer installing the packages manually, you can of course still do so, but this is no longer recommended.

The rapidshare.de downloads remain valid until the next release, but I will not upload any further packages there.

No reason to forgive you for anything , I'm glad that you used this possibility as well. :)

My webspace provider finally fixed his issues, so the repository is available again.

But the URL changed - please replace

http://gw78.sam-city.com/suse/10.1 (bad)

by

http://gw78.sam-host.net/suse/10.1 (good)

everywhere.
