Mh, I  don't like this solution so much.
Let's just evade this and try something different:
Compile wx and amule by yourself. I would suggest to use wxGTK 2.6.3r2, you can grab it at wxwindows.org
The wiki should guide you through the rest of the process, just ask if you've questions.

[Princey]

Thanks for the help. I've downloaded the files but the 2.6.3 rc2 is released in one standard package for all ports. I'm not sure which to run if it's the one with gtk or x11. Any advice?

I still haven't gotten amule to work. There isn't a wxgtk in the all ports package I got. I was advised to use the rc2. Only in the stable packages there is one or am I mistaken? Reading the X11 one it says you can compile then convert to wxgtk. I'm in the process of installing a new and bigger hard drive later on today. Should I use one of the deb packages fresh off or should I still go ahead and compile myself?

Ports? Stable? What are you talking about? Grab this file, untar it and run configure with '--with-gtk --enable-unicode'

Okays, I'm back on track again. Having received my new comp, I decided to build amule seeing that the one provided in the ubuntu unsupported repos is way lower than the current version. YES, I've tried the deb packages before trying to buidl and they all come up with the errors already stated so as someone suggested the best way is to install with wxwidgets instead. I read the how to instructions twice then proceeded as directed. First up, I got an error saying I had no compiler installed so I installed gcc 4.0. Then when I typed in '../configure --with-gtk --with unicode-enable' the following appears with an error saying about some string error. Here's the exact output. Hoping someone can help me out there. It's not my first time compiling, but first time I'm stuck:

Can someone  point me to the right direction?

[wuischke]

Did you install the package 'build-essential'?

[Princey]

No, I didn't. Thanks for the input. Incidentally, I remembered somehow that I didn't yet install build essential so I just tried it just after I posted waiting on a reply--sort of trial and error and lo and behold everything went smoothly with building wxgtk. Got to go out now so I'll compile amule when I get back. Thanks a whole lot your for assistance.  

[Princey]

Hmm, this is pretty much the toughest I've been through. I compiled wxwidgets fine. aMule compiled with the following at the end following this link here.

make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/princey/aMule-2.1.1/po' make[2]: Entering directory `/home/princey/aMule-2.1.1' make[2]: Nothing to be done for `all-am'. make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/princey/aMule-2.1.1' make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/princey/aMule-2.1.1'

When I type in amule at the prompt to make sure it worked, I get a string of messages talking about different files or names starting with "ZTV" having different size in shared object consider relinking then this at the end

Fatal Error: Mismatch between the program and library build versions detected. The library used 2.6 (no debug,Unicode,compiler with C++ ABI 1002,wx containers), and your program used 2.6 (no debug,Unicode,compiler with C++ ABI 1002,wx containers,compatible with 2.4). Aborted

What's next?

[Kry]

You have 2 versions of it installed, aMule was compiled against one of them, and it's trying to link dynamically on run to the other.

Two versions of what? aMule or wxwidgets?

[Kry]

wxWidgets.

[Princey]

I've removed wxwidgets from my system. Because I followed word for word the tutorial from the wiki, I need to ask the question before I try again. Do I have to perform this line

To avoid crashes at startup when linked against GTK2, save this file as intl.cpp in your wxGTK-2.6.2/src/common directory (replace the original one)

seeing that I'm using wxGTK-2.6.3? I know the directions were written for 2.6.2

[phoenix]

Princey,

No, you don't need to copy it, but you need a patch file. I have updated the instructions for wx2.6.3, please, go there again:
http://www.amule.org/wiki/index.php/Compilation_Installation

[Kry]

There should be no need to patch 2.6.3...
