Hello all,

I've made some packages for multiple Linux distros and architectures.
Only the openSUSE packages have been tested but I think the packages for the other rpm based distros should work fine.
About the .deb packages I'm not sure, I couldn't get Ubuntu to build but perhaps the debian packages works fine?

If anyone could test any of them please do so and tell if it works or not.
openSUSE:

11.3 (i586), 11.3 (x86-64)
11.4 (i586), 11.4 (x86-64)
12.1 (i586), 12.1 (x86-64)

Fedora:

14 (i386), 14 (x86-64)
15 (i386), 15 (x86-64)
16 (i386), 16 (x86-64)

Mandriva:

2009.1 (i586), 2009.1 (x86-64)
2010 (i586), 2010 (x86-64)
2010.1 (i586), 2010.1 (x86-64)
2011 (i586), 2011 (x86-64)

Debian (also works under Ubuntu):

6.0 (i386), 6.0 (amd64)

As for me (ubuntu 11.10, x86_64) .deb package installs without any problems but when I start meandmyshadow it just shows me black screen. No info in terminal too.

Thanks for testing, what happens if you run this from terminal:

{l Code}: {l Select All Code}

cd /usr/local/share/meandmyshadow/

{l Code}: {l Select All Code}

../../bin/meandmyshadow

Hello Edward_Lii,
if I run these commands, I still see black screen instead of the menu.

, the files should be in place and it should be able to run.
Could you run this command:

{l Code}: {l Select All Code}

strace -o mams.log meandmyshadow

It will create a file named mams.log could you upload that file.
I have the feeling it tries to get the files from the wrong directory, but than it should throw an error.

Here it is:

Hello KroArtem,

KroArtem {l Wrote}:Here it is:

Had a quick look at it and it looked fine.
But then I found this line near the end:

{l Code}: {l Select All Code}

...
open("/home/artem/.meandmyshadow/levelprogress.txt", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
...

The file levelprogress.txt is very old (somewhere round rev.40)
I don't know how it happens but your running an old version.

Hello Edward_Lii,
probably, I'm running an old version because you gave me a link to an old version?
http://download.opensuse.org/repositori ... _amd64.deb
It doesn't seem to be 0.2rc1 version.

Your right, I've looked into it and when I look at the build log it compiles 0.2rc1 but packages 0.1.1?
Part of the build log:

{l Code}: {l Select All Code}

...
... saving built packages
/usr/src/packages/DEBS/meandmyshadow_0.1-1_amd64.deb
/usr/src/packages/SOURCES.DEB/meandmyshadow_0.2rc1.diff.gz
/usr/src/packages/SOURCES.DEB/meandmyshadow_0.2rc1.dsc
/usr/src/packages/SOURCES.DEB/meandmyshadow_0.2rc1.orig.tar.gz
...


Which is very strange since I removed the source archive from the sources?
.deb packages are a nightmare compared to .rpm packages.
It probably has something to do with the changelog, I'm trying some stuff and building new .deb packages.

Stay tuned.

Unbelievable, because I didn't add an entry to the changelog stating that I updated the package to version 0.2rc1 it package V0.1.1.
Anyway the new build is ready, here's a link:
download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/Edward_Iii/Debian_6.0/amd64/meandmyshadow_0.2rc1-1_amd64.deb

Thanks, now it seems to be installing fine and working too
So it works under ubuntu 11.10 64-bit. Good job!

Debian 6.0 (i386),
works for me

Hello ctdabomb,

Thanks for testing, I think we're going to release 0.2 this weekend.
Rebuilding packages, at least I know the debian builds work fine under Ubuntu.

one thing, how do you uninstall?

Hello ctdabomb,

ctdabomb {l Wrote}:one thing, how do you uninstall?

You want to uninstall!

Just kidding, I think you can just remove it from the Synaptic Package manager.
