== Self-compiling Crypto++ ==

You could compile libcrypto yourself too. Take a look at [[Compilation_Installation|our compilation howto]].

== Hasty installation ==
Please note that this installation method has the disadvantage that the crypto++ packages wont be updated automatically along with the rest of your system!

* Download the crypto++ package that matches your arch [http://packages.debian.org/unstable/libs/libcrypto++5.1 here].
* If you want to compile amule yourself, download the crypto++-dev package that matches your arch [http://packages.debian.org/unstable/libdevel/libcrypto++-dev here].
* use the command "dpkg -i <filename>" on the downloaded files as root and you're done.
