ed2k binary missing
« on: May 10, 2004, 07:38:39 AM »

Hi all.

I'm using FreeBSD 5.2.1 with aMule 1.2.6 and i'm missing the ed2k binary. It's not on my system. I searched the source tarball with no success. I could probably find it when i searched long enough, but maybe you guys could give me a link? Guess it's a real small binary, or script?

Anyway, thanks.  :rolleyes:

There is no ed2k binary on my computer, i did a
find / -name "ed2k"
which didn't find anything. :(

This was also the case with xMule, but i deinstalled that program long ago. FreeBSD uses the port collection to install, i do have the source tarball. In the past i could just download the ed2k binary from someone.

Or can you maybe tell me how i should build the ed2k binary from sourcecode? And only specifically that binary. :rolleyes:

Thanks!

check `configure --help` but I don't know if there's a way to _only_ compile ed2k from the default `make` command... I guess you should run configure with defaults and then check "Makefile" to see if there's some `make ed2k` command available (most surely there'll be one). I'm sorry I'm not on my computer right now, so I can't check that for you :-(

Well, I just got to my computer and checked. Conclusions:
switch into src/ directory and _from it_ run `make ed2k` (or `gmake ed2k` in BSDs)
So that's it ;-) That'll avoid a lot of time, and will only compile the ed2k binnary (in about few seconds).
