In order to install Oolite I need to have autopackage. I tried searching for autopackage for my 11.1 box but cannot find it. Anyone know where I can get this?
Hi
You could build from the src rpm here;
http://prdownload.berlios.de/oolite-linux/oolite-1.73.4-ajb4.src.rpm
To build you need;
mesa-libGL-devel SDL_image-devel SDL_mixer-devel gcc-objc
gnustep-gui-devel gnustep-make >= 2.2.0
To run you need;
gnustep-gui >= 0.16.0 SDL_image SDL_mixer
Then use the command;
rpmbuild --rebuild oolite-1.73.4-ajb4.src.rpm

must be a bug in their rpm file…

Hi
What happens if you install the rpm and then cd
to /usr/src/packages/SOURCES (or extract the rpm and copy all the files
to the SOURCES directory)

yea that worked but I get a different error compiling. I’ll pass on oolite for now. Thanks for the help though. 
Hi
Well I updated gnustep-make, and have compiled it with a few mods if
you want I can upload for you to try, then could build on the Build
Service if you would like?

hmmm… nah, now that you’ve done it, I want to get it working too. Let me keep trying and if I dont get it, I’ll reply.
Thanks!
Hi
I have it working on both 32 and 64bit locally and it’s working as it
should, still dealing with some build issues on the openSUSE Build
Service (OBS).
The fc11 src spec is no the best as it seems to be for 64bit only.
Shouldn’t be too much longer and something should appear here;
Search?

Thanks! I’ll download it and check it out. I still am curious as to why I couldnt compile it. I’m going to download the src you uploaded and try to compile it again.
Thanks!!

Hi
Just made some further changes to the buildrequires (as I added the
SLE11 repo) changed to libSDL items and added libpng-devel.

Better late than never, I hope the following will be useful.
If you just change the .package privileges to executable (i.e. chmod +x <package -name>.package),
then by executing the .package will download the runtime and the GTK (front-end) automatically.
You may also manually install the autopackage runtime:
http://autopackage.googlecode.com/files/autopackage-1.4.2-x86.tar.bz2
or (if you want it for x86_64 architecture)
http://autopackage.googlecode.com/files/autopackage-1.4.2-x86_64.tar.bz2
The GTK (optional but usefull) can be then installed as a package itself. Download from:
http://autopackage.googlecode.com/files/autopackage-gtk-1.4.2.package
If you want to create .packages you will need the development environment:http://autopackage.googlecode.com/files/Autopackage%20Development%20Environment%201.4.2.package
The latest Oolite package can be found here:
