Limited documentation? [Solved]
« on: May 24, 2005, 04:53:21 PM »
I can't seem to find anywhere on this site any information about how to compile aMule properly. When I try to compile it the generic way (configure, make, make install), I get a warning during configure.

Code: [Select]
                                      wxWidgets             2.4.2
                                       GTK                   2.6.4
                                       crypto++              embedded
                                       zlib                  1.2.2


WARNING!! Your wxWidgets copy has been linked against GTK2 and this will make aMule
be unstable, use much more cpu and ram. You have been warned, don't report bugs under this setup.

Not sure if I should even bother compiling after that warning.

So... does anyone know how to get around this? I have aMule 2.0.0-rc8 installed and working fine and didn't have this problem when I compiled it before, so not sure where this is suddenly coming from.

Any help appreciated and much thanks in advance.

you probably emerged wxGTK with the gtk2 use flag enabled, but due to problems with wx-2.4.2 and gtk2 (high-CPU and mem-usage) we disabled the abilty to compile amule with wx-2.4.2 and gtk2

so either reemerge wx-2.4.2 with the gtk1 useflag, OR emerge teh new wx-2.6 and here also gtk2 is allowed

Stefanero:

Thanks. This solved the problem.

Now configure goes along without a hitch, but make is giving errors. Hehe... when did this get so complicated? :D

And that is just part of a long line. =/

Thanks again, Stefanero

This is what I get when checking those links. I checked this earlier, too, and it looked fine to me unless wxcas (which I thought was amule pieces) is a second copy of wxGTK.

wxcas is a 2nd copy of wxGTK? huh?

anyway remove please the wxbase-config link, since with wx-2.6 you DONT need anymore wxBase, any maybe if you can uninstall it completly...

other then that it looks fine, after you removed the link and/or completly removed wxBase, run
ldconfig

and rerun configure, make and so on with amule

No, hehe. That isn't what I meant. I meant "unless wxcas is also GTK, but I think it is amule pieces."

But I removed the link, remerged and am still having the same errors. Hehe, this is gonna bug me for days until I get it fixed...

Thanks for your patience.

Are you saying I need to remove that link? I am at a loss here for compiling this. Although the config errors are gone, the compile errors are just numerous.

Hehe... do I remove it? Or leave it? Or make it point someplace else?

AHHH! You're killing me, Kry! ;)

Make it point to gtk2-unicode-release-2.6 or something alike. The keyword tehre is gtk instead of base

That did it, Kry! Thanks a ton to the both of you for the help. Awesome job on 2.0.1 so far man... it even looks nicer. I can't wait to see Kademlia functioning... which I am SURE is a pain to work on.

Great job!

P.S.
For anyone else who may have the same problem...

/usr/bin/wx-config -> /usr/lib/wx/config/base-ansi-release-2.6

Needs to be (worked on my system at least):

/usr/bin/wx-config -> /usr/lib/wx/config/gtk2-ansi-release-2.6

Thanks again, guys.
