[Solved] Installation problem with AMule

[twa]

Hi,
I have package tar and file-roller installed.
Want to install the latest version of AMule which is a .tar.bz2.
How to proceed ?
Your help will be very much appreciated .Txs

[doktornotor]

Just open it. There is no need to "proceed" with anything. Every Linux OS has tar and bzip2 installed. Do NOT remove those manually just because you do not know what they are for.

P.S. Manual unpacking for dummies:

Code: Select all

gunzip file.gz
bunzip2 file.bz2
tar -xvf file.tar
tar -zxvf file.tar.gz
tar -jxvf file.tar.bz2

doktornotor,

doktornotor,
txs again, but I still have old version
do I need to change my repos to debian / unstable

[Gerd50]

twa, i tried the 2.3.1 version but returned to 2.2.6. The newest wasn't the better version in my eyes.

[doktornotor]

We are absolutely off-topic here. If you have problems with forcing a particular version from repo via apt configuration, start a new topic.

Gerd50,
txs, wl follow yr suggestion and stay with 2.2.6 version
doktornotor,
txs..I agree

1/ To use packages from unstable, you need to add it to sources.list first. Create /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian.list with the following:

Code: Select all

deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian testing main contrib non-free
deb http://security.debian.org/ testing/updates main contrib non-free
deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian unstable main contrib non-free
deb-src http://ftp.debian.org/debian unstable main contrib non-free

2/ If you only want to use those testing/unstable repos to manually cherry-pick packages from them via

Code: Select all

apt-get install package/testing

or similar, see man apt_preferences and create /etc/apt/preferences with pin priorities set accordingly.

doktornotor,
Thank you very much. Have done as per your indications and installed last version of AMule.
Your help really appreciated.

As of mid-June 2012 LMDE 201204 Debian still has the following amule problems:

- aMule 2.3.1 relies on libupnp6 but the latest VLC installed in this LMDE relies on libupnp3

- even when correctly installed aMule throws this exception:

----------
2012-06-15 21:30:01: Initialising aMule 2.3.1 compiled with wxGTK2 v2.8.12
2012-06-15 21:30:01: Checking if there is an instance already running...

aMule Version: aMule 2.3.1 compiled with wxGTK2 v2.8.12

Terminated after throwing an instance of 'CEOFException'
what(): SafeIO::EOF: Attempt to read past end of file.

--------------

This persists after resets of configuration, etc. This may not appear immediately but after a crash due to lack of filesystem space it was unresolvable in my experience. I timed out on solving it after an hour or so.

- earlier versions of aMule (2.2.6) do not appear to be in the official repositories.

This leaves LMDE 201204 with no standard ed2k: client. Even attempting to work around this seems to involve disabling VLC.

Hi Craig_Hubley !

I had the same problem after the latest LMDE upgrade (update pack 5) and the update of aMule to version 2.3.1-8.

After having deleted the file statistics.dat (located in the folder .aMule your home folder) , amule works fine again !

Hope it will help you,

Best regards,

Alexandre
