== Installing official [[aMule]] ports ==

The official port is ''/usr/ports/net/amule''

This is the stable version [[aMule]] 1.2.6

We wanna stay current? help testing / debugging: read how to install/compile aMule on your won in this article! Read below.

== Install [[aMule CVS]] on [http://www.freebsd.org FreeBSD] 5.3 ==

Make sure you have installed:

''/usr/ports/x11-toolkits/wxgtk2''

* Ignore the "problems" about [[wxGTK]]2 on [http://www.freebsd.org FreeBSD]. It works perfectly!

Download the latest [[aMule CVS]] snapshot
[http://www.amule.org/files/download.php?file=5 here].

(This article is tested with http://amule.hirnriss.net/cvs/aMule-cvs-20041215.tar.bz2)

''tar -zxvf aMule-cvs-20041215.tar.bz2''

''cd amule-cvs/''

''./configure --prefix=/home/'''user'''/amule-cvs/
--with-wx-config=/usr/X11R6/bin/wx-config
--with-wxbase-config=/usr/X11R6/bin/wx-config
--disable-debug --with-curl-config=/usr/local/bin/curl-config
--enable-optimize --x-libraries=/usr/X11R6/lib
--x-includes=/usr/X11R6/include --localstatedir=/usr/X11R6/share/gnome
--datadir=/usr/X11R6/share/gnome --with-html-dir=/usr/X11R6/share/doc
--with-crypto-prefix=/usr/local --with-included-gettext --disable-cas''

'''NOTE:''' Check [[configure]]. Also, change '''user''' for your user name.

''gmake''

''cd ~/amule-cvs/src/amule''

If you would like to compile/install [[aMule]] 2.0.0-rc7, you can follow the same instructions.

Greetz,
Martin

== Manual compilation ==

Follow this guide to compile [[aMule]] on your [http://www.freebsd.org FreeBSD] system.

=== Requirements ===

Install this ports if you don't already have them installed (see ''pkg_info''), since they are needed to compile [[aMule]]:

''x11-toolkits/wxgtk''

If you are installing any [[aMule]] version between 2.0.0-rc1 and 2.0.0-rc5 (inclusive), you will also need ''security/cryptopp''

Also (but you will have these already ;-)) ''devel/gettext'' and ''devel/gmake''

You know how to install ports as a [http://www.bsd.org BSD] user, so I don't have to tell you, I hope. It's just too easy you know. In case you're very new to [http://www.freebsd.org FreeBSD], consult the great [http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook handbook] at [http://www.freebsd.org http://www.freebsd.org].

'''NOTE:''' If you think you have [[wxWidgets|wxGTK]] installed because you see [[wxWidgets|wxGTK2]], you should know, [[wxWidgets|wxGTK]] is linked against [http://www.gtk.org GTK1] and [[wxWidgets|wxGTK2]] is linked against [http://www.gtk.org GTK2]. Using [[wxWidgets|wxGTK2]] with [[aMule]] might become [[aMule]] unstable! You should use [[wxWidgets|wxGTK]], not [[wxWidgets|wxGTK2]].

=== Configure ===

(Tested with [http://www.freebsd.org FreeBSD] 5.2-CURRENT 03-May-2004)

The ''./configure'' does not work 100% automagically, we must help it out a bit (check [[configure]]).

Edit the '''<your home>''' tag, of course, or install it elsewhere.

''./configure --prefix=/home/'''<your home>'''/amule --with-wx-config=/usr/X11R6/bin/wxgtk-2.4-config --with-wxbase-config=/usr/X11R6/bin/wxgtk-2.4-config''

'''NOTE:''' This is one single line, not 3 lines or whatever [http://wiki.org/wiki.cgi?WhatIsWiki wiki]/HTML/your browser wraps this line into.

You will see configure doesn't find ''gdlib-config'', even if you installed ''gdlib''. Don't care, it's just not there and it's no "must have". Just skip it.

'''NOTE:''' If you get the following warning:

''WARNING!! Your wxWidgets copy has been linked against GTK2 and this will make aMule be unstable, use so much cpu and ram. You have been advised, don't report bugs so.''

at the end of ''configure'' you are probably linking against [[wxWidgets|wxGTK2]] instead of [[wxWidgets|wxGTK]]. [[aMule]] will memleak and eat your CPU. It will probably crash as well. Use [[wxWidgets|wxGTK]] as mentioned above!

=== Make ===

''make'' will fail, use ''gmake''

''make'' is [http://www.bsd.org BSD] [http://www.gnu.org/software/make make], ''gmake'' is [http://www.gnu.org GNU] [http://www.gnu.org/software/make make]. They are '''not''' compatible.

Now do:

''gmake''

Get yourself a hot green tea (I prefer some sort of sencha) while it is compiling.

Then do:

''gmake install''

=== Use it ===

Just start it with ''/home/<your home>/amule/bin/amule''
or wherever you installed it to...

Have phun

== The [[aMule]] 2.0.0 port ==

Hi :)

I've just released the 2.0.0 port !!! As ususal, available here :
http://contribs.martymac.com and soon on amule.org !!!!

A few modifications : it is now linked against wxgtk2-unicode-devel ; it will be linked back against wxgtk2-unicode (stable) when 2.6 is out. The small ed2k binary is also now named "ed2k", it is no more renamed to "amule-ed2k". Finally, the port will only build on 5.x, no more on 4.x, sorry... For 4.x compatibility, see this old good port "net/amule" (which should be soon renamed to net/amule1) in the official source tree.

The port builds fine on amd64, and should on x86 :P

Enjoy !

== The [[aMule]] 2.0.0-rc7 port ==

Hi all, the rc7 port is now available on my website:
http://contribs.martymac.com

I've also added binaries for those who don't want to spend time to compile. The port works on [http://www.freebsd.org FreeBSD] 4.10 and 5.2.1. Any feedback welcome. I've changed some options to the Makefile: amule-ed2k-handler is now amule-ed2k, and cmd+GUI options are now joined in global ones. Do a "make config" prior to the "make install" to update your config file.

Enjoy :)

== The [[aMule]] 2.0.0-rc6 port ==

Visit http://www.amule-project.net/amule/thread.php?threadid=3758 and do as it says ;-)

== The [[aMule]] 2.0.0-rc4a ports ==

Hi all, new update to this wiki: 2.0.0rc4a ports are available. No, you ain't dreaming, you've just seen an 's' appended, because there are two ports.

Unfortunately, [http://www.freebsd.org FreeBSD] 4.x (and [http://gcc.gnu.org GCC] 2.95) doesn't provide some required libs (see the patches inside the archive) to build this brand-new [[aMule]] version, so I released two ports :

*One for the 4.x branch, which won't compile under 5.x:
Includes many patches, sometimes tricky, to make it work. This could lead to unstability and require further testing. Any feedback is welcome :)

*Another one for the 5.x branch, wich won't compile under 4.x:
This one doesn't include any patch.

To download the ports: http://www.amule.org/amule/download.php or http://contribs.martymac.com

Enjoy!

== The [[aMule]] 2.0.0-rc3 port ==

I've just released the 2.0.0rc3 port.

See http://www.amule.org/amule/download.php (and http://contribs.martymac.com) to download it.

== Installing non-official ports ==

If you download a port which is not officially available, you'll have to uncompress it (''tar xvzf file.tgz'') into the ''/usr/ports/net'' directory and then do a standard ''make install''.

Any feedback welcome, many thanks to Eugene for this great wiki :)

== Compilation problems ==

If you still can't compile [[aMule]] see if the following patches work.

=== Patch 1 ===

The problem would be:

''<pre>[...]
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lcryptopp
gmake[2]: *** [cas] Error 1
gmake[2]: Leaving directory `/home/eugene/aMule-2.0.0rc3/src'
gmake[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/home/eugene/aMule-2.0.0rc3'
gmake: *** [all] Error 2</pre>''

So we patch it now:

''edit src/Makefile''

Search for the line containing

''cryptopp''

This line will read as:

''LIBS = -lcryptopp''

Add ''-L/usr/local/lib'' to that line

Now the line will read as:

''LIBS = -L/usr/local/lib -lcryptopp''

=== Patch 2 ===

The problem would be:

''<pre>[...]
amule.cpp:39:30: execinfo.h: No such file or directory
amule.cpp:40:28: mntent.h: No such file or directory
In file included from /usr/local/include/cryptopp/pkcspad.h:4,

gmake[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/home/eugene/aMule-2.0.0rc3'
gmake: *** [all] Error 2</pre>''

So we patch it now:

As there is no official [http://www.freebsd.org FreeBSD] support in [[aMule]] yet we will patch it to work... Well there is [http://www.openbsd.org OpenBSD] support and this support will work for us too :-)

Edit ''src/amule.cpp''

and insert

''#define __OPENBSD__''

at the top of this file. I placed it right before the first ''#include'' line...

"What a workaround!" you may scream. Hey, we don't fiddle too much around with the code, just hack it to work and get ready to share ;-)

82.224.94.101:

This page is likely to be updated soon, but it might help you even right now.

== Install [[aMule]] 2.0.0rc3 on [http://www.freebsd.org FreeBSD] 5.x ==

Why would you ask... we have ''/usr/ports/net/amule''

Well, this is the stable version 1.2.6

We wanna stay current or help testing / debugging, why else would you read this?

== Install ports we need if you don't allready have (see ''pkg_info'') ==

''x11-toolkits/wxgtk''

also (but you will have these already ;-)) ''devel/gettext'' and ''devel/gmake''

If you are installind any aMule version between 2.0.0-rc and 2.0.0-rc5 (inclusive), you will also need ''security/cryptopp''

''make'' will fail, use ''gmake''

''make'' is [http://www.bsd.org BSD] [http://www.gnu.org/software/make make], ''gmake'' is [http://www.gnu.org GNU] [http://www.gnu.org/software/make make]. They are '''not''' compatible.

Now do:

''gmake''

Get yourself a hot green tea (I prefer some sort of sencha) while it is compiling.

Then do:

''gmake install''

== Use it ==

Just start it with ''/home/<your home>/amule/bin/amule''
or wherever you installed it to...

Have phun

Eugene

== Update - Using the port ==

I've just released the 2.0.0rc3 port.
See http://www.amule.org/amule/download.php (and http://contribs.martymac.com) to download it.

Since the port is not (yet) officially available, you'll have to uncompress it (''tar xvzf file.tgz'') into the ''/usr/ports/net'' directory and then do a standard ''make install''.

Any feedback welcome, many thanks to Eugene for this great wiki :)

== 2.0.0rc4a ports ==

Hi all, new update to this wiki: 2.0.0rc4a ports are available. No, you ain't dreaming, you've just seen an 's' appended, because there are two ports.

Unfortunately, [http://www.freebsd.org FreeBSD] 4.x (and [http://gcc.gnu.org GCC] 2.95) doesn't provide some required libs (see the patches inside the archive) to build this brand-new [[aMule]] version, so I released two ports :

*One for the 4.x branch, wich won't compile under 5.x:
Includes many patches, sometimes tricky, to make it work. This could lead to unstability and require further testing. Any feedback welcome :)

*Another one for the 5.x branch, wich won't compile under 4.x:
This one doesn't include any patch.

To download the ports: http://www.amule.org/amule/download.php or http://contribs.martymac.com

Enjoy!

== The rc6 port ==

Visit http://www.amule-project.net/amule/thread.php?threadid=3758 and do as it sais ;-)

== The rc7 port ==

Hi all, the rc7 port is now available on my website : http://contribs.martymac.com
I've also added binaries for those who don't want to spend time to compile. The port works on FreeBSD 4.10 and 5.2.1. Any feedback welcome. I've changed some options to the Makefile : amule-ed2k-handler is now amule-ed2k, and cmd+GUI options are now joined in global ones. Do a "make config" prior to the "make install" to update your config file.

Enjoy :)

82.224.94.101:

This page is likely to be updated soon, but it might help you even right now.

== Install amule 2.0.0rc3 on freebsd 5.x ==

Why would u ask... we have /usr/ports/net/amule

Well, this is the stable version 1.2.6

We wanna stay current or help testing / debugging, why else would u read this?

== Install ports we need if u dont allready have (see ''pkg_info'') ==

''security/cryptopp''

and

''x11-toolkits/wxgtk''

and (but you will have this already ;-)

''devel/gettext''

and (but you will also have this already ;-)

''devel/gmake''

You know how to install ports as a BSD user, so I don't have to tell you, I hope. It's just too easy you know. In case you're very new to FreeBSD, consult the great handbook at [http://www.freebsd.org].

'''NOTE:''' If you think you have wxGTK installed because you see wxGTK2, you should know, wxGTK is linked against GTK1 and wxGTK2 is linked against GTK2. Using wxGTK2 with aMule will become aMule unstable! You have to use wxGTK, not wxGTK2.

== Configure ==

The ./configure does not work 100% automagically, we must help it out a bit.

I used the following line of configure, wich may differ for you a bit due to different OS or library versions you have installed

Right now this line works for FreeBSD 5.2-CURRENT 03-May-2004 for example but version numbers may be different for FreeBSD 5.2.1 or the upcomming 5.3.

Edit the <your home> tag, of course, or install it elsewhere.

''./configure --prefix=/home/<your home>/amule --with-wx-config=/usr/X11R6/bin/wxgtk-2.4-config --with-wxbase-config=/usr/X11R6/bin/wxgtk-2.4-config''

NOTE: This is one single line, not 3 lines or whatever wiki/html/your browser wraps this line into.

You will see configure doesn't find gdlib-config, even if you installed gdlib. dont care, its just not there and its no "must have". Just skip it.

'''NOTE:''' If you get the following warning

''WARNING!! Your wxWidgets copy has been linked against GTK2 and this will make aMule be unstable, use so much cpu and ram. You have been advised, don't report bugs so.''

at the end of configure you are probably linking against wxGTK2 instead of wxGTK. aMule will memleak and eat your CPU. It will probably crash as well. Use wxGTK as mentioned above!

== Patch 1 ==

The problem would be:

'''<pre>[...]
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lcryptopp
gmake[2]: *** [cas] Error 1
gmake[2]: Leaving directory `/home/eugene/aMule-2.0.0rc3/src'
gmake[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/home/eugene/aMule-2.0.0rc3'
gmake: *** [all] Error 2</pre>'''

So we patch it now:

''edit src/Makefile''

Search for the line containing

''cryptopp''

This line will read as:

''LIBS = -lcryptopp''

Add ''-L/usr/local/lib'' to that line

Now the line will read as:

''LIBS = -L/usr/local/lib -lcryptopp''

== Patch 2 ==

The problem would be:

'''<pre>[...]

gmake[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/home/eugene/aMule-2.0.0rc3'
gmake: *** [all] Error 2</pre>'''

So we patch it now:

As there is no official FreeBSD support in aMule yet we will patch it to work... Well there is OpenBSD support and this support will work for us too :-)

Edit ''src/amule.cpp''

and insert

''#define __OPENBSD__''

at the top of this file. I placed it right before the first ''#include'' line...

gmake[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1

gmake: *** [all] Error 2</pre>'''

So we patch it now:

''edit src/Makefile''

Search for the line containing

''cryptopp''

This line will read as:

''LIBS = -lcryptopp''

Add ''-L/usr/local/lib'' to that line

Now the line will read as:

''LIBS = -L/usr/local/lib -lcryptopp''

== Patch 2 ==

The problem would be:

So we patch it now:

As there is no official FreeBSD support in aMule yet we will patch it to work... Well there is OpenBSD support and this support will work for us too :-)

Edit ''src/amule.cpp''

and insert

''#define __OPENBSD__''

at the top of this file. I placed it right before the first ''#include'' line...

"What a workaround!" you may scream. Hey, we don't fiddle too much around with the code, just hack it to work and get ready to share ;-)

== Make ==

''make'' will fail, use ''gmake''

''make'' is BSD make, ''gmake'' is gnu make. They are '''not''' compatible.

Now do:

''gmake''

Get yourself a hot green tea (I prefer some sort of sencha) while it is compiling.

Then do:

''gmake install''

== Use it ==

Just start it with ''/home/<your home>/amule/bin/amule''
or wherever you installed it to...

Have phun

== Update - Using the port ==

I've just released the 2.0.0rc3 port.
See [http://www.amule.org/amule/download.php] (and [http://contribs.martymac.com]) to download it.

Since the port is not (yet) officially available, you'll have to uncompress it (''tar xvzf file.tgz'') into the ''/usr/ports/net'' directory and then do a standard ''make install''.

Any feedback welcome, many thanks to Eugene for this great wiki :)

== 2.0.0rc4a ports ==

Hi all, new update to this wiki : 2.0.0rc4a ports are available. No, you ain't dreaming, you've just seen an 's' appended, because there are two ports.

Unfortunately, FreeBSD 4.x (and Gcc 2.95) doens't provide some required libs (see the patches inside the archive) to build this brand-new aMule version, so I released two ports :

- One for the 4.x branch, wich won't compile under 5.x :
Includes many patches, sometimes tricky, to make it work. This could lead to unstability and requires further testing. Any feedback welcome :)

- Another one for the 5.x branch, wich won't compile under 4.x :
This one doesn't include any patch.

To download the ports : [http://www.amule.org/amule/download.php] or [http://contribs.martymac.com].

Enjoy !
