I guess I should "thank" to SOME of developers too. Current SVN doesn't compile for same reason on Fedora 7 as well.

You're welcome to take over the task of maintaining the embedded sources, which at the time of removal were a couple of years behind the official releases of Crypto++.

AFAIK there's no libcrypt package for Fedora, BTW.
Suggestions?

Do a local install, and/or bug the Fedora devs to get it included in the distro.

That's the PKGBUILD (like a Gentoo ebuild) from Archlinux. I think it's pretty easy to read it and follow the steps.

It doesn't really take any more than

PREFIX=$(whereever) make all install

[TASADAR-F]

In Ubuntu is very easy :
sudo aptitude install libcrypto++-dev

Not helpful. Next one?

So ?

I guess what they are trying to say is that aMule requires the library "crypto++" as it does with "wxWidgets" and other libraries, along with the "gcc/g++" compiler, etc etc etc. As usual, if your distro doesn't provide it (or they provide a too old version), you should compile it yourself.

That's what I get from their responses at least.

[lfroen]

The problem is that not only default install of Fedora doesn't provide it, there no RPM in repository. So, given this situation, you can not create amule RPM for Fedora.
crypto++ is tiny library, how about we point to their SVN with "external" in our repository and offer static compile via "configure" flag?

[Vollstrecker]

This would over time cause the same problems. Someone have to keep them in sync. That is what didn't happen the last time, and I'm sure this will happen again. So it's maybe better to bother the distro to add it, or just provide a rpm for this lib from somewhere else.

You can pin to specific revision, and advance it as stable releases are made. It's good idea to bother distro to add it, but we've better have safe fallback too.

The Crypto++ library is built statically by default, so it's entirely possible to build an RPM for Fedore or whatever distro.

For the lazy ones, aMule recent tarballs include a script called amule_build_install.sh, which not only teaches how to build cryptopp, but also all the necessary libraries and aMule. Also, it installs everything locally at the user home dir, so there is no need to be root. And it can be adapted to everyone's needs.

Cheers!

That's match better.

[skolnick]

You can compile it and install it, lfroen. Recent versions of cryptopp come with a small Makefile that will install the needed files to /usr/local.
