I tried to install the package for suse 9.2, and rpm complains that libcurl.so.2 is missing:
error: Failed dependencies:
libcurl.so.2 is needed by aMule-2.0.0rc7-1
This is because suse 9.2 has libcurl.so.3. :))
-
Get a newer curl version (from http://curl.haxx.se/) :)
or in /usr/lib do ln -s libcurl.so.3 libcurl.so.2 (but the first version is preferable).
-
The distro also has a package called curl-compat providing libcurl.so.2.
However, the bug remains valid.
-
So you now do have both libcurl.so.2 and libcurl.so.3, and it's still complaining about missing libcurl.so.2?
-
Sorry, I wasn't clear. :)
Now I have both libraries, and aMule works.
What I meant is that it is not optimal for the RPM to require the old version of the library, that must be installed by hand (and most people would not realize that).

Another thing... The amule icons is not shown in the k-menu (only the text entry). This is because the icon was installed in
/usr/local/share/pixmaps/amule.xpm
, which is correct according to freedesktop, but SUSE has a bug where it doesn't check /usr/local/share/pixmaps, but only /usr/share/pixmaps.
So if you should make a new rpm, please install the icon there. :))
Thanks a lot!
-
The SUSE packager will be told about it.
sigh...
