I am currently running LMDE and I am facing the age old problem that I have faced since I first installed Ubuntu back in 2008... Installing tar.bz programs. I suppose that I never asked for help in the past though, which is why I have never learned how to do it. The odd time things work out well and I am okay. But once again I have a problem.
I am attempting to install a program called MuseScore. The latest version for Debian is only available via the tar.bz2 download.
The instructions are as follows:
Code: Select all
Installation:
- unpack source distribution
tar xvofj mscore-x.x.x.tar.bz2
- make
cd mscore-x.x.x
make release
if something goes wrong, then remove the whole build subdirectory
with "make clean" and start new with "make release"
- install as root user
sudo make install
Code: Select all
if test ! -d build; \
then \
mkdir build; \
cd build; \
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RELEASE \
-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=""/usr/local"" \
../mscore; \
make lrelease; \
make -j `grep -c processor /proc/cpuinfo`; \
else \
echo "build directory does already exist, please remove first with 'make clean'"; \
fi;
build directory does already exist, please remove first with 'make clean'
Code: Select all
rm -rf build
rm -rf win32build win32install
Any help appreciated!
