This page is likely to be updated soon, but it might help you even right now.
Contents
Install amule 2.0.0rc3 on freebsd 5.x
Why would u ask... we have /usr/ports/net/amule
Well, this is the stable version 1.2.6
We wanna stay current or help testing / debugging, why else would u read this?
Install ports we need if u dont allready have (see pkg_info)
security/cryptopp
and
x11-toolkits/wxgtk
and (but you will have this already ;-)
devel/gettext
and (but you will also have this already ;-)
devel/gmake
You know how to install ports as a BSD user, so I don't have to tell you, I hope. It's just too easy you know. In case you're very new to FreeBSD, consult the great handbook at [1].
NOTE: If you think you have wxGTK installed because you see wxGTK2, you should know, wxGTK is linked against GTK1 and wxGTK2 is linked against GTK2. Using wxGTK2 with aMule will become aMule unstable! You have to use wxGTK, not wxGTK2.
Configure
The ./configure does not work 100% automagically, we must help it out a bit.
I used the following line of configure, wich may differ for you a bit due to different OS or library versions you have installed
Right now this line works for FreeBSD 5.2-CURRENT 03-May-2004 for example but version numbers may be different for FreeBSD 5.2.1 or the upcomming 5.3.
Edit the <your home> tag, of course, or install it elsewhere.
./configure --prefix=/home/<your home>/amule --with-wx-config=/usr/X11R6/bin/wxgtk-2.4-config --with-wxbase-config=/usr/X11R6/bin/wxgtk-2.4-config
NOTE: This is one single line, not 3 lines or whatever wiki/html/your browser wraps this line into.
You will see configure doesn't find gdlib-config, even if you installed gdlib. dont care, its just not there and its no "must have". Just skip it.
NOTE: If you get the following warning
WARNING!! Your wxWidgets copy has been linked against GTK2 and this will make aMule be unstable, use so much cpu and ram. You have been advised, don't report bugs so.
at the end of configure you are probably linking against wxGTK2 instead of wxGTK. aMule will memleak and eat your CPU. It will probably crash as well. Use wxGTK as mentioned above!
Patch 1
The problem would be:
[...] /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lcryptopp gmake[2]: *** [cas] Error 1 gmake[2]: Leaving directory `/home/eugene/aMule-2.0.0rc3/src' gmake[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/home/eugene/aMule-2.0.0rc3' gmake: *** [all] Error 2
So we patch it now:
edit src/Makefile
Search for the line containing
cryptopp
This line will read as:
LIBS = -lcryptopp
Add -L/usr/local/lib to that line
Now the line will read as:
LIBS = -L/usr/local/lib -lcryptopp
Patch 2
The problem would be:
[...] amule.cpp:39:30: execinfo.h: No such file or directory amule.cpp:40:28: mntent.h: No such file or directory In file included from /usr/local/include/cryptopp/pkcspad.h:4, from /usr/local/include/cryptopp/rsa.h:9, from ClientCredits.h:32, from amule.cpp:86: /usr/local/include/cryptopp/cryptlib.h:1358:9: warning: "/*" within comment amule.cpp: In member function `virtual bool CamuleApp: nInit()': amule.cpp:423: error: `setmntent' undeclared (first use this function) amule.cpp:423: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in.) amule.cpp:429: error: `getmntent' undeclared (first use this function) amule.cpp:431: error: invalid use of undefined type `struct mntent' amule.cpp:427: error: forward declaration of `struct mntent' amule.cpp:432: error: invalid use of undefined type `struct mntent' amule.cpp:427: error: forward declaration of `struct mntent' amule.cpp:437: error: invalid use of undefined type `struct mntent' amule.cpp:427: error: forward declaration of `struct mntent' amule.cpp: In member function `virtual void CamuleApp: nFatalException()': amule.cpp:982: error: `backtrace' undeclared (first use this function) amule.cpp:987: error: `backtrace_symbols' undeclared (first use this function) gmake[2]: *** [amule-amule.o] Error 1 gmake[2]: Leaving directory `/home/eugene/aMule-2.0.0rc3/src' gmake[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/home/eugene/aMule-2.0.0rc3' gmake: *** [all] Error 2
So we patch it now:
As there is no official FreeBSD support in aMule yet we will patch it to work... Well there is OpenBSD support and this support will work for us too :-)
Edit src/amule.cpp
and insert
#define __OPENBSD__
at the top of this file. I placed it right before the first #include line...
"What a workaround!" you may scream. Hey, we don't fiddle too much around with the code, just hack it to work and get ready to share ;-)
Make
make will fail, use gmake
make is BSD make, gmake is gnu make. They are not compatible.
Now do:
gmake
Get yourself a hot green tea (I prefer some sort of sencha) while it is compiling.
Then do:
gmake install
Use it
Just start it with /home/<your home>/amule/bin/amule or wherever you installed it to...
Have phun

Update - Using the port
I've just released the 2.0.0rc3 port. See [2] (and [3]) to download it.
Since the port is not (yet) officially available, you'll have to uncompress it (tar xvzf file.tgz) into the /usr/ports/net directory and then do a standard make install.
Any feedback welcome, many thanks to Eugene for this great wiki :)

2.0.0rc4a ports
Hi all, new update to this wiki : 2.0.0rc4a ports are available. No, you ain't dreaming, you've just seen an 's' appended, because there are two ports.
Unfortunately, FreeBSD 4.x (and Gcc 2.95) doens't provide some required libs (see the patches inside the archive) to build this brand-new aMule version, so I released two ports :
- One for the 4.x branch, wich won't compile under 5.x : Includes many patches, sometimes tricky, to make it work. This could lead to unstability and requires further testing. Any feedback welcome :)
- Another one for the 5.x branch, wich won't compile under 4.x : This one doesn't include any patch.
To download the ports : [4] or [5].
Enjoy !
