Minitube 2.0 Has been released and unlike version 1.9 there is no longer any need to apply a patch before building the .deb installer. The build is pretty straight forward then.

First thing, install the dependencies. in a terminal:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install build-essential qt4-dev-tools libphonon-dev libqtgui4 libqt4-xml libqt4-network libqt4-dbus phonon-backend-gstreamer gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad checkinstall dh-make

As normal user:

Code: Select all

cd ~/ && mkdir tmp && cd tmp/
wget http://flavio.tordini.org/files/minitube/minitube-2.0.tar.gz
tar xvzf minitube-2.0.tar.gz
cd minitube

Now let's build:

Code: Select all

qmake-qt4
dh_make -p  minitube_2.0 --createorig

dh_make will prompt you what to build, press 's' for single, hit enter then run the next command

Code: Select all

dpkg-buildpackage
This will build the package for you and make the debian installable file for your machine's architecture.

Now just install the package:

Code: Select all

cd ~/tmp
sudo dpkg -i minitube_2.0-1_amd64.deb

Now go Play and Have FUN!

(and share this with your friends)

If you experience any trouble with playback (due to a bug with gstreamer) try the following. Depending on your version of linux yo may have to edit the command for location of the file.

32-bit

Code: Select all

sudo mv /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/gstreamer-0.10/libgstvideoparsersbad.so /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/gstreamer-0.10/libgstvideoparsersbad.so.bak
64-bit

Code: Select all

sudo mv /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gstreamer-0.10/libgstvideoparsersbad.so /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gstreamer-0.10/libgstvideoparsersbad.so.bak
To undo those changes for any reason just rerun the command by switching .so to .so.bak and .so.bak to .so

As a Greeny I want to thank this advice but also want to give couple comments:

1. It shall be done stepp by stepp instruction !
- Eg. First: copy paste this list to terminal: sudo apt-get install build-essential qt4-dev-tools libphonon-dev libqtgui4 libqt4-xml libqt4-network libqt4-dbus phonon-backend-gstreamer gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad checkinstall dh-make, wait xxx min. when files been installed. this first line took over 4 hour to install !! why ?

2. when first line finished, copy this to Terminal: cd ~/ && mkdir tmp && cd tmp/
wget http://flavio.tordini.org/files/minitub ... 2.0.tar.gz
tar xvzf minitube-2.0.tar.gz
cd minitube
or, shall I copy this first !? What yoy mean for " normal user" ?!

3. WHY your are not make installing system more esyer ?! eg. Click: install and install prosess been done automatically ?!

I gave instructions for LMDE and no other versions. Not nadia or maya or anything else. THIS IS THE LMDE THREAD.

If you need help with NADIA or MAYA or anything else, I have no idea as I do not have it installed.

I use LMDE, Linux Mint Debian Edition and that is where this thread is posted.

Bye, BYE!
