That was funny.

If you don't know how to install wxWidgets, don't blame us. I guess you're the 16-y-old guy here, and we're the proffessional software developers.

Sorry, but if you're not up to the challenge of learning to compile an app, you can go with precompiled packages, or go back to Windows XP.


Let me tell you this: aMule is NOT FINDING YOUR WXWIDGETS INSTALLATION BECAUSE YOU DON'T KNOW HOW TO INSTALL WXWIDGETS.

Had you followed any of the tutorials people contributed to teach people that doesn't know, like you, you would be using aMule. Now, seeing your attitude, I don't think the comunity loses much if you don't use it.

You got a warning for insulting the developers.

Why did you do that? It should not be necessary!

Well, you could try to be more professional by giving more information, including the *exact* error message you get.

But I have an idea where your problem might come from. Could you please check your GLIBC version? If it's older than 2.1, you cannot use aMule. aMule depends on features from GLIBC 2.1 or higher. Large File Support is simply not present in earlier versions, and aMule needs it.

@Kry: I think he already installed wxWidgets and the Large File Support check still failed because he's using such an old distro whose GLIBC has no Large File Support.

No, check his configure log.

checking for wx-config... no

I never say "I know how to install wx", but that's exactly the point !!

all your answers are like that : "ok, so just install the wx" or "use gtkX" or any not-understadable answer.

You said it and you were right - I DON'T KNOW HOW TO INSTALL THE wxWidget
but insted of giving us, the dummies, good step-by-step answers, you just send us to look for it.

I'm a programer for many years (yeah yeah under windows), and i think i'm not bad in it, and that is why i'm so upset.

maybe i was too rude and i apologize for that, but man, let us understand what you want from us.. so many people here are dying to use it but they can't.

don't be a linux-smart - be proffessional. I never said you are bad programmers, after all - you built that aMule, i said (and again, i know i was too rude - i was too upset) :
 
explain you answer, including links.
step-by-step answer is not easy to write - but you must do it so we can understand you.

anyway, it's all the same in linux-forums, maybe i'm the stupid one.
don't really know.

Could you post the output of:
ls -l /usr/local/bin/wx*
and
ls -l /usr/bin/wx*

Cheers....

Indeed. Sorry.

@digoren:

Download this file:

http://ftp://biolpc22.york.ac.uk/pub/2.6.3/wxGTK-2.6.3.tar.bz2

Unpack it with the following command:

Code: [Select]

tar xfvj wxGTK-2.6.3.tar.bz2Go into the extracted directory:

Code: [Select]

cd wxGTK-2.6.3And now compile it:

Code: [Select]

./configure --enable-largefile --enable-unicode --with-gtk=2
makeThen install it:

Code: [Select]

su -c "make install"Now set up your environment, just to be sure:

Code: [Select]

export PATH="/usr/local/bin:$PATH"
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/local/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH"And then, finally, configure and make aMule from the same shell.

If there are still problems afterwards, post the complete configure output again.

What about some visit to the wiki

Your gcc is way too old, you need at least gcc-3.3 to compile aMule successfully.
Sorry that I cannot write you a step-by-step tutorial on how to that, but I really think that it would be easier just to install a bit more up-to-date distribution. You'll find many of them and because it seems that you like Red Hat you should give Fedora Core a try.

Edit: OK, then I do apologize for telling you wrong things. I *believed* that it won't compile with old gcc, but believing doesn't mean to *know* it...

[Kry]

It was wxWidgets that failed, not aMule. Funny, I didn't know wxWidgets choked on gcc 3.x

No, this is not true.

This is a bug, and it's fixed:

wxGTK clipboard: fix for compile error with older versions of gcc due to having conditional compilation directives used within a macro.
