Opening of the repository Debian/Ubuntu

This is the first post and with the announcement of the official repository of the Debian / Ubuntu.
The packages have been compiled on Debian Lenny, but I’m testing on Ubuntu Intrepid.

You’ll find the stable and unstable binary (currently 1.4.7 and 1.5.14).

For any communication please contact me on valdan@valdan.net or write in the forum http://wif.altervista.org/index.php in the section “Un Pinguino a Wesnoth…”.

The commands to add the repository:

sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
Paste the following text at the bottom:

deb http://download.tuxfamily.org/itwesnoth/debian/ binary/ #wesnoth binary stable/unstable
deb-src http://download.tuxfamily.org/itwesnoth/debian/ sources/ #wesnoth sources stable/unstable

save and exit gedit and go in the terminal:

sudo apt-get update

Now if you want to install the stable:

sudo apt-get install wesnoth

instead if you want to install the development:

sudo apt-get install wesnoth-unstable

The interesting thing is that the two packages are not in conflict with each other!

Then you can install them all!!! ;)

Basic packages are only in English and Italian, but you can add other languages … See how.
Look for the string that corresponds to your language / usr/share/i18n/SUPPORTED
and now edit a file containing the string and insert it in the folder / var / lib / locales / supported.d /locales
reconfigured with dpkg-reconfigure locales
For example, if there was the Italian should do this:
gedit /usr/share/i18n/SUPPORTED
I try the string corresponding to Italian (ca_IT.UTF-8 UTF-8) to copy and edit a local
sudo gedit /var/lib/locales/supported.dlocal
paste in which the string
now reconfigure
sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales
and you’re done!

You can leave a response, or trackback from your own site.

    Hi, I’ve done the instructions, after sudo apt-get install wesnoth the terminal shows these:

    -desktop:~$ apt-get install wesnoth
    E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock – open (13: Permission denied)
    E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root?

    Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
    requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
    distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
    or been moved out of Incoming.
    The following information may help to resolve the situation:

    The following packages have unmet dependencies:
    wesnoth: Depends: wesnoth-core (>= 1:1.8-1~karmic1~itwesnoth1) but it is not going to be installed

    Is there a way I could install it without using synaptic? The reason why I went on such trouble is I don’t want to use Synaptic.
    I need to know the licenses of those programs I download to my computer. With synaptic I don’t get to read the license first.

  • V4LD4N scrive:

    I hope to answer the right questions … my English is very poor.
    The software is licensed under GPLv3.
    To install from the terminal (to get a sure) write this in a terminal:

     sudo aptitude install wesnoth-all

    Let me know if you solved.
