Part "A" describes manual compilation from a tarball, part "B" rpm installation!

A) wxGTK - wxBase - libcrypto - aMule manual compilation


WARNING: Make sure you have no wx installation. If you already have wx installed, check How to uninstall wxWidgets before starting a new installation. If after all, you still have problems, check if wx is installed twice, since that's a common compilation and runtime problem too.

NOTE: In wxWidgets 2.5.1 (and only in that version), wxBase is not distributed as a separate tarball. So if you are going to compile wxGTK 2.5.1, skip the first step (wxBase compilation).

  • compile wxBase ->
    • tar -zxvf wxBase-2.4.2.tar.gz
    • cd wxBase-2.4.2
    • ./configure --prefix=/usr && make
  • as root:
    • make install
    • ln -sf /usr/bin/wxgtk-2.4-config /usr/bin/wx-config
    • ln -sf /usr/bin/wxbase-2.4-config /usr/bin/wxbase-config
    • ldconfig


  • compile wxGTK ->
    • tar -zxvf wxGTK-2.4.2.tar.gz
      • cd wxGTK-2.4.2
      • ./configure --prefix=/usr --disable-gtk2 --with-gtk && make
  • as root:
    • make install
    • ldconfig


  • compile libcrypto ->
    • tar xvjf crypto-5.1.tar.bz2
    • cd crypto-5.1
    • make
If you have problems compiling with older gcc versions, it can be due to stray DOS newlines in some files. Invoke
file * | grep CRLF | while read file rest; do dos2unix ${file%:}; done
to convert them to UNIX newlines (bash syntax).
  • as root:
    • make install && ldconfig


  • compile aMule ->
    • tar -zxvf aMule-X.X.X.tar.gz (replace X with the right version number..)
    • cd aMule-X.X.X
    • ./configure --disable-debug --enable-optimize && make
  • as root:
    • make install
  • run aMule as user from your console by typing -> amule


B) wxGTK - wxBase - libcrypto - aMule rpms</b>


  • install wxBase ->
    • as root:
      • rpm -Uvh wxBase-2.4.2-1.i586.rpm
      • ln -sf /usr/bin/wxgtk-2.4-config /usr/bin/wx-config
      • ln -sf /usr/bin/wxbase-2.4-config /usr/bin/wxbase-config
      • ldconfig


  • install wxGTK ->
    • as root:
      • rpm -Uvh wxGTK-2.4.2-1.i386.rpm wxGTK-devel-2.4.2-1.i386.rpm
      • ldconfig


  • install aMule ->
    • as root:
      • rpm -Uvh aMule-X.X.X-1.iX86-X.rpm (replace X with the right version number..)
  • run aMule as user from your console by typing -> amule
