for users using wxWidgets >= 2.5.0
« on: March 04, 2005, 02:24:55 PM »
If you're using wxWidgets version >= 2.5.0, please be sure of the following:

1) If you're going to compile any of the GUI applications (amule, amulecmdDLG, amulewebDLG, wxcas), do not install wxBase. Install only wxGTK. If you had already installed wxBase also (after wxGTK), you can still compile aMule, but it gets more complicated: do:

wx_config_args="--toolkit=gtk" ./configure

This should do the trick.

2) If you want to only compile command-line applications (amuled, amulecmd, amuleweb, cas), it doesn't matter which wx you install wxBase or wxGTK. Any of the two will fit. That's because in wxWidgets releases >= 2.5.0 wxGTK contains the Base library too.

Hi,
instead of this, take into considerations reading a TUTORIAL from A to Z about compiling and installing a-mule.

It is very hard to keep tracking of bits and pieces of advice (IF bla bla THEN do bla bla...)

So, please post a TUTORIAL for DUMMIES.
You'll save a lot of bandwidth also.... not to mention you'll save us from nervous breakdowns, hitting monitor with keyboard, etc :D

With this I get the following on configure although I have "all" the packages installed.

checking for wxWidgets version >= 2.6.0... no (version 2.4.5 is not new enough)
configure: error:
                wxWidgets must be installed on your system but wx-config
                script couldn't be found. Please check that wx-config is
                in path or specified by --with-wx-config=path flag, the
                directory where wxWidgets libraries are installed (returned
                by 'wx-config --libs' command) is in LD_LIBRARY_PATH or
                equivalent variable and wxWidgets version is 2.6.0 or above.


Could you please list the packages?

I hopefully solved it by removing the libwxBase package.
