I recently heard about Jahshaka, actually from these forums, and i checked out the website, and it seems like a pretty sweet graphics editor. I tried downloading it, and it only downloads the source file. I found a script on the website to install Jahshaka from source, but it requires ubuntu Dapper on X86, and I run Ubuntu Edgy, and I don't have x86. i think it's i386? I gave it a go to see if it worked anyways, and it didn't.
Anyways, after reading every HOW-TO on the planet, the closest thing i found was a link on the Jahshaka website for a German website [which i had translated using online website translator] and it's for compiling Jahshaka for Debian. After trying that out, a few of the Debian packages that i had to download were not compatible with Ubuntu.
It's difficult bc Jahshaka is still so new, so not a lot of info is out there yet, but any help on compiling this with Ubuntu would be great. The website is Jahshaka.org.
Any tips, insight, or ideas would be great! =)
I don't really know how to compile code, but Jahshaka provides a script that can be run that compiles the code for Ubuntu users, but it does not work with my version. All it says is "only compatible with x86 architecture" when i run the script. and the instructions that i found in German is for Debian- i tried it anyways, but a few of the packages that are suggested do not work with Ubuntu- it just said i didn't have the package dependencies installed, when clearly i did. This is common for .deb files that are not Ubuntu-compatible.
