Truecrypt 5.0 install problems.

First I had issues with gzip... but after downloading the tarball again that seems to have solved itself.

Now I have problems building and compiling:

downloaded wxWidgets source (all) 2.8.7

Code:

make WX_ROOT=/usr/src/wxWidgets-2.8.7 wxbuild

Produces warning:

Quote:

/usr/src/wxWidgets-2.8.7/src/gtk/gsockgtk.cpp:134: warning: ‘wxDummyGsockVar’ defined but not used

I ignore it and do:

Code:

make

This produces errors...

Quote:

StringConverter.h:23: error: ‘static std::wstring TrueCrypt::StringConverter::FromNumber(long int)’ cannot be overloaded
StringConverter.h:22: error: with ‘static std::wstring TrueCrypt::StringConverter::FromNumber(TrueCrypt::int64)’
StringConverter.h:26: error: ‘static std::wstring TrueCrypt::StringConverter::FromNumber(TrueCrypt::uint64)’ cannot be overloaded
StringConverter.h:25: error: with ‘static std::wstring TrueCrypt::StringConverter::FromNumber(long unsigned int)’
make[1]: *** [Buffer.o] Error 1
make: *** [all] Error 2

Anyone else have these errors or success compiling on debian amd-64?
I would have downloaded the ubuntu .deb (isn't it just debian anyways?)
but it is i386 so won't install.

Thank you in advance.

Truecrypt has been a thorn in my side for the last week (pre 5.0) so I don't expect it to work... unless I have windows or a non 64bit proc. Neither of those are acceptable options for me. I think I must be doing something wrong...

Things this clueless man has tried:
(more for my notes)

removing g++ while keeping g++-4.1 ----> g++ isn't around so make doesn't work. (wonder what g++-4.1 is - patch?)
installing fuse2, libfuse2 and libfuse-dev ----> No change for 'make'... however 'make clean' doesn't complain about fuse not existing anymore.

I'm gonna try some sleep now... perhaps it will work in the morning like my problem with gzip... ;)

in this thread i've posted a patch and a complete .deb for ubuntu to use truecrypt under 64-bit linux.

Thank you, but...

I end up with a lot of unmet dependencies...

I've upgraded all I can (stable). Perhaps I should go unstable...

I'll see what I can do.

Thanks tho.

Wait... I just found the patch...

since i built this version on ubuntu and since ubuntu is based on the unstable branch of debian, many of those packages are not yet availiable in such new versions in the stable-branch of debian.
I made another package without those dependencies:

http://rapidshare.com/files/90068414...ntu1_amd64.deb
md5sum: ecae7e5966d13e12121cc3289cec5202

Well it seemed to compile fine... then I got this at the end:

Quote:

/usr/bin/ld: unrecognized option '--hash-style=sysv'
/usr/bin/ld: use the --help option for usage information
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[1]: *** [truecrypt] Error 1
make: *** [all] Error 2

I think I'm gonna give up for now...

I'll give it one more shot...

Nah... More problems.

Installs just fine, but when I run truecrypt I get:

Quote:

truecrypt: /usr/lib/libfuse.so.2: version `FUSE_2.6' not found (required by truecrypt)
truecrypt: /lib/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.4' not found (required by truecrypt)

I went unstable to install the packages, but it wants to remove a bunch of packages and install a bunch - I'm not messing with my server that much.

I'll just wait it out or find something else.

Thank you for all your help tho. I appreciate it.

The truecrypt forums are up and running again. I posted a shortened version of this thread on there. I mentioned your help and said that it was on the ubuntu forums, but did not link to the ubuntu forums. I didn't want to step on any toes.

Thank you again for all your help. I will continue to try... I'm just really frustrated and disappointed - so I need a breather.

Debian and Truecrypt 5 - yes, it does work. And the GUI looks just like it does in Windows - well almost. Drives are refered to as number 1 to 32 instead of by letter but that is fine. Was it easy? Well yes and no. I struggled and gave up but came across a kind Guru who eventually sorted it. He cursed and swore but says that now he has done it it is not actually too difficult. He is writing up the notes and I will send them out as soon as I get them. In the mean time do not despair. It is worth the wait.

Andy, let us know when you get this. I have the same problem as checkmate3001 and would really like to see what your guru did to get around the dependency problem.

Thanks,
D.

64 bit debian squeeze - truecrypt is ok
32 bit debian squeeze - truecrypt needs sudo apt-get install libfuse-perl
or error message is cannot find libfuse.so.2.

Yes moderator I know that this thread has not been replied to in over 6 months
but I came here looking for the answer but did not find it so others will too.
Only trying to be helpful.
