installing amule 2.1.1
« on: April 03, 2006, 11:01:25 PM »
Hi everyone, i've been using aMule for a while now and i think is great. I have one thing to ask though: i just wanted to upgrade to version 2.1.1, since when i start the program i get this message:  

Your aMule version is 2.1.0 and the latest version is 2.1.1

Only problem is that when i run the apt-get update && apt-get install amule command i get this:

amule is already the newest version.
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 26 not upgraded.

Any idea why is that?  

Thanx

Yes, it's very simple: Nobody packaged aMule 2.1.1 for your distro so far. Request an update or add more sources to your sources.list.

thanx for the reply, i thought that since Mepis is Debian based i could install the Debian package the way is explained on the wiki.  What do you mean by add more sources to the sources.list?  ;)

you can configure apt with

/etc/apt/sources.list

maybe there is somewhere a repository for your distro which has aMule-2.1.1 so add teh url to the list and you get teh update...

maybe ask on the offical mepis forum if such repository exists...
