aMule in Fedora
Contents
This page explains how to get a working aMule installation on Fedora distributions.
It covers installing by pre-compiled RPM packages as well as building from sources.
It applies to Fedora 9 and later distributions, and aMule v2.2.x
Installing pre-compiled packages
First of all, be aware that pre-compiled packages may or may not include all amule features. It depends on configuration choices done by the packager.
You can be sure that the amule 'monolithic' version is always included, but cannot say about other features (amule daemon, link creator or so).
Installing via yum
aMule is not included by default in official fedora repositories.
But it can be installed and automatically updated adding additional, external repositories to your Fedora system.
Rpmfusion free packages repository includes amule stable packages
You must first configure your Fedora system to use the external repositories. This is usually done manually installing a rpm. For example, for rpmfusion you have to do as root:
rpm -Uvh http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-stable.noarch.rpm
Then, you can install amule simply with:
yum install amule
All dependencies will be automatically resolved by yum, and it will download and install the amule rpm package as well as all other rpm packages needed to run amule (wxGTK etc.)
That's it ! Now you can just run 'amule' !
Installing user-contributed RPM packages
You can find in the aMule forum user-contributed RPM packages for amule, both for the stable version and for development versions
Having a working internet connection, download the amule packages, become 'root' user and do a :
yum --nogpgcheck localinstall <your-amule-RPM-package>
aMule requires other libraries (wxGTK, GeoIP, uPnP ...) to be installed, if they are missing on your system yum will download & install them together with the amule package.
If everything goes fine, drop your root privileges and run amule ... buttons are now present on your Gnome Desktop menus; alternatively, just run "amule &" in a shell.
Compiling & installing amule from sources
The "do-it-yourself" section ...
Please, be sure to have enough space. You need 700Mb-1Gbyte of temporary space on your disk. The last nuclear-powered,speed-of light capable CPU is not necessary (even if it helps!).
Setting up a compilation environment
The starting point is the amule source code, that you can find in the amule project website at http://www.amule.org/files/files.php?cat=34 . Download it.
Even if it is not strictly related to aMule compilation, I recommend to update your Fedora installation to the latest package versions. It could help you avoiding problems later. You can update already installed packages with (run as root):
yum update
Then, in order to compile amule sources, you need to install on your Fedora system much more packages than a regular user.
You need the C / C++ compiler, wxWidgets development libraries, crypto++ libraries and a few spare others.
Here again, yum helps us:
yum install gcc gcc-c++ make bison flex binutils-devel gettext-devel GeoIP-devel wxGTK-devel zlib-devel libpng-devel gd-devel libupnp-devel cryptopp-devel
Many other packages are installed by yum together with the ones above, due to dependencies. That's regular.
If you want to build your own amule rpm package, you need also:
yum install rpm-build redhat-rpm-config
Downloading & compiling crypto++
crypto++ is a cryptographic library needed by amule compilation process.
On Fedora 9 and later, this library is included in standard Fedora repositories and you should have installed such library following the previous section instructions.
On Fedora 8 and below, or if you want to compile crypto++ libraries yourself for whatever reasons, here follows the steps required.
Download latest crypto++ sources from http://www.cryptopp.com (version 5.5.2 at December 2008).
Unzip crypto++ sources in a directory, open a shell and change directory on it.
Then get root privileges and type:
make
make install
ldconfig
The make process will produce two files, libcryptopp.a (this is the static library used by amule) and cryptest.exe.
In order to validate your crypto++ build , you must run "cryptest.exe v
" and check if all tests are passed.
Hint:
If crypto++ tests fail, you can try to modify compilations options as follows: go to the crypto++ sources directory. Locate the "GNUmakefile" file and edit it. In the first line, change
CXXFLAGS = -DNDEBUG -g -O2
to
CXXFLAGS = -DNDEBUG -g -O0 -DCRYPTOPP_DISABLE_X86ASM
and then recompile / test your crypto++ build again as written above.
The usual way: configure/compile/install
Configuring your aMule build
Unzip aMule source file in the current directory with:
tar -xvjf amule-x.y.z.tar.bz2
Change into the aMule sources directory created by the untar operation and type :
./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-optimize --disable-ccache --disable-debug --enable-geoip --enable-webserver
or, if you want to compile almost everything (including the amule daemon and all companion tools), you can prefer a
./configure --prefix=/usr --with-denoise-level=4 --enable-optimize --disable-debug --enable-cas --enable-wxcas --enable-alc --enable-alcc --enable-amulecmd --enable-amule-daemon --enable-amule-gui --enable-geoip --enable-webserver --enable-verbose --disable-ccache
(You may want to check the configure article to understand switches meaning and eventually try different configurations.)
Now you should see a bunch of output, while your system tries to configure aMule for building. The configure phase should not take that long (30 - 60 seconds on a modern system, a little more on older systems), and it ends with a summary of the selected options & installed libraries which will be used in the compilation.
Compiling your aMule build
Type "make
" then sit down and relax. Depending on your systems speed this can take 'a while'. Prepare for at least 5 minutes of strange output.
If make stops check the last few lines of output for something that looks like an error message. If you can find something that looks like an error message, again, join the amule forum and prepare for pasting or do a "make clean
", try to change some of your configure options and restart "make
".
If it's still not working, ask someone at the amule forum for help.
If your build completed without error you're nearly done.
Installing your aMule build
Get root privileges and type make install
to install your newly built aMule. Now drop your root privileges and try to start aMule with "amule &
". If your build was ok you may have a great piece of software running by now.
If your aMule instantly dies and produces a bunch of output containing words like "backtrace" - don't worry, join the amule forum and somebody might help you.
After building you can remove the directory you just built aMule in, as well as you can remove the installed -devel RPMs. I suggest you leave the RPMs in place in case you want to rebuild or build a new version some other day.
Creating your own RPM packages
Creating RPM files *implies* running configure/make/build as written in the section before, but, as an advantage:
It performs such steps in a controlled way, following "instructions" contained in a file (the spec file)
Having RPM package(s) in output, it gives you much more control on how to install/update software on your PC.
As a prerequisite, please install on your fedora system the following two packages, which installs 'rpmbuild' - the application needed to create RPM packages- and set up the standard Fedora RPM configuration.
yum install rpm-build redhat-rpm-config
The spec file
In this file you give instructions to rpmbuild on how to configure and compile amule - and how to organize the output packages.
Here follows a (quite complex) example based on aMule 2.2.5 , which builds several packages following the rpmfusion convention.
Please update the spec file your information "Packager" and changing the "Version" row as appropriate.

Running rpmbuild
Put the aMule source file (aMule-2.2.5.tar.bz2) into your ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES directory.
Put the spec file into ~/rpmbuild/SPECS/aMule-2.2.5.spec
Build the packages (binary, sources, debuginfo) with
rpmbuild -ba ~/rpmbuild/SPECS/aMule-2.2.5.spec
If everything goes fine, you have your packages built in the following directory:
Source RPM package in ~/rpmbuild/SRPMS
Binary RPM packages, including debuginfo packages:
Fedora 12 and later in ~/rpmbuild/RPMS/i686
Fedora 11 in ~/rpmbuild/RPMS/i586
Fedora 10 and previous in ~/rpmbuild/RPMS/i386
Suggestions
- * Drop your root privileges. Don't work/play/watch movies/drive a car/{you're favourite way to waste some time here} as root. Working as root can be dangerous. One mistake can lead to some interesting hours, restoring your system's health. If you know what you're doing: fine, but it's probably still better if you don't work as root.
- * Keep an eye on the aMule forum and the aMule Project FAQ and probably use the search function: most questions have been answered before.
Creating RPMs for RHEL 5 (CentOS 5)
Prerequisites
- Working rpmforge repository.
- Source packages for wxGTK and compat-wxGTK26 gotten from FC9 repositories.
- Installed libcrypto++ (and headers).
- Installed and updated version of flex (2.5.35 for example)
- amule-2.2.1 SPEC file.
- amule-2.2.1 sources.
- Working rpmbuild tools (and compilers and all the packages needed and listed in this page).
Steps
Configure rpmforge repository
If you hasn't it, see the how to here: https://rpmrepo.org/RPMforge/Using and install it. I don't use "atrpms" repository, rpmforge packages appears to be more stable than atrpms ones.
Install wxGTK 2.8.x
You can go to FC9 repository ( http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/releases/9/Everything/i386/os/Packages/ ) and download wxGTK binaries and install them.
If you has any wxGTK 2.6 dependences, you'll need compat-wxGTK26 package too.
Install libcrypto++
You can install libcrypto from scratch (no problem) as explained below for FC or you can package it (a bit work).
To package it for CentOS 5, use this SPEC file:
Name: libcrypto++ Version: 5.5.2 Release: 1_ArcosCom Summary: Crypto++: a C++ Class Library of Cryptographic Primitives License: BSD-like Group: System/Libraries Url: http://www.cryptopp.com Packager: Andrey Semenov <mitrofan@altlinux.ru> Source: crypto-%version.tar.bz2 # Automatically added by buildreq on Sat May 15 2004 BuildRequires: gcc-c++ libstdc++-devel BuildRoot: %{_tmppath}/%{name}-%{version}-%{release}-root-%(%{__id_u} -n) %description Crypto++: a C++ Class Library of Cryptographic Primitives %package -n %name-devel Summary: Development files for libcrypto Group: Development/C PreReq: %name = %version-%release License: Compilation Copyright (c) 1995-2003 by Wei Dai.

You'll need a tar.bz2, not a zip file as you download from http://www.cryptopp.com/#download, to make it do:
# wget http://www.cryptopp.com/cryptopp552.zip # mkdir crypto-5.5.2 # cd crypto-5.5.2 # unzip ../cryptopp552.zip # cd .. # tar -cf crypto-5.5.2.tar crypto-5.5.2/ # bzip2 crypto-5.5.2.tar
Then, with the libcrypto++.spec file in ~/rpmbuild/SPECS and the crypto-5.5.2.tar.bz2 in ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES you can build your binary package (and source package too) with:
# rpmbuild -ba ~/rpmbuild/SPECS/libcrypto++.spec
And install it (and the devel one) as root:
# sudo rpm -ihv ~/rpmbuild/RPMS/i386/libcrypto++.i386.rpm # sudo rpm -ihv ~/rpmbuild/RPMS/i386/libcrypto++-devel.i386.rpm
Upgrade flex
When I tried to build amule package, I encountered problems with the flex version in CentOS 5.x, amule need a more recent version of flex and I have to create an upgraded package for it.
Be warned: An updated version of flex is only needed for compile/build amule, if you have a binary package YOU DON'T NEED IT.
Go to you ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES and download a recent flex version:
# wget http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/flex/flex-2.5.35.tar.bz2?download
Download your flex 2.5.4a source package too, to get an initial SPEC file and the patches:
# cd ~/rpmbuild/SRPMS # wget http://mirror.centos.org/centos/5/os/SRPMS/flex-2.5.4a-41.fc6.src.rpm # rpm -ihv flex-2.5.4a-41.fc6.src.rpm
Now you will have an initial SPEC file in ~/rpmbuild/SPECS and you can edit it to change into this one:

Scanners are programs which can recognize lexical patterns in text. Flex takes pairs of regular expressions and C code as input and generates a C source file as output. The output file is compiled and linked with a library to produce an executable. The executable searches through its input for occurrences of the regular expressions. When a match is found, it executes the corresponding C code. Flex was designed to work with both Yacc and Bison, and is used by many programs as part of their build process.
