Any idea how to install Fuppes on Ubutnu 8.10?
I tried the instruction in this link
(http://maketecheasier.com/how-to-ins...rdy/2008/10/25) but then the Fuppes copy there is for 32bit system, where mine is AMD64.
I have tried to force change the file to 64bit, but it didn't work.
I also tried to install Fuppes from (http://www.getdeb.net/release/2932) which is for 64bit machines, but then I got the following error message:

Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: libavcodecld
Last thing I tried is to recompile the SW. That was even worse nightmare as I end up with more dependencies problems
The package on getdeb.net is for hardy (8.04), you can't just assume that it will work on any release (and apparently, it really does not).
It seems to me that the only way to go is compilation. The dependencies are normal - they just signal that you need to install the missing libraries before you can proceed. It may take several steps before you finally get to the point where you actually get to compile the thing but then you should not have any trouble. As a rule, the libraries can be found in the repositories so you do not need to go out hunting all over the net to find them.
Well, I managed to solve all dependency issues, but still the compiling part is not working well. I get the following errors while running the command
Code:
make install

SVN snapshots are usually not a good idea unless you are dealing with a extremely stable svn. SVN means live code that can change at any moment and can be broken or not compile at all at time intervals.
Before trying anything else, I'd start with a stable numbered release.
i've successfully compiled the source. I had to go through all the code and correct errors. it was mostly missing ';' and '#include <cstring>' however i can not run fuppes, when i try i get.
fuppes: error while loading shared libraries: libfuppes.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
however i dont see any error during compiling or installation. maybe there are some 'configure' options i'm not using or something. i'm relatively new to linux so maybe some pro can finish this off. here is the link to the fixed source files, maybe u guys can give it a shot.
haha, tried to post link, apparently i have to "introduce" myself first... hi all i'm tony
Cool thanks for hosting the files!!!
I gather you caught the 'std::' errors as well, i forgot to post that!
Well it doesnt matter, as long as it works right!
Having any problems with displaying images(jpg) and movies (divx) on an xbox 360, i can get the mp3 going but when i'm trying movies or images, there are none to play.
I've tried the original 578 source and gutsy, this works oke, but one must follow the path of updating somtimes.
In this case 8.10, however nice it is, does not work for me, any ideas?
