Re: [Ltib] Ubuntu 12.04 compatibility (was Re: Build problem in Ubuntu 1

2012/7/2 Stuart Hughes <address@hidden>

Hi everyone,

I managed to get some time to test LTIB on Ubuntu 12.04 (Xubuntu, 32
bit). There were no significant changes needed, although I checked in
some minor changes to clear some warning messages (the force-debian one).

So if you want to try on Ubuntu 12.04 and you check-out the latest from
CVS and follow these step, you should be successful.

---+ Steps to install LTIB on Ubuntu 12.04

Install dependencies (yours may vary):

sudo apt-get install g++ zlib1g-dev rpm libncurses5-dev patch

sudo visudo

Add a line to enable sudo for your username. For example mine is seh
and this is what I added at the end of the file:

seh ALL = NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/rpm, /opt/ltib/usr/bin/rpm

Run ltib after CVS checkout:

./ltib

Regards, Stuart
