Apollon

I searched on Sourceforge for a Linux compatible kazaa client and found Apollon. I also saw that it had an all in one installer so I downloaded it thinking that life would be easy. After unzipping the file I entered the new directory and ran the install.sh. First it asked me where I wanted to have the program installed and recommended either /usr or /usr/local. I chose /usr. Then it states that the application is being unpacked followed by a line that says Compiling giFT. It fails the compilation and I get this error:

Code:

libltdl support is temporarily required.  Please install the appropriate
library and header files &#40;which includes the -dev package&#41;.  See config.log
for more details.

Now when it asked me for this library I looked on my Mandrake install disk for the .RPM. I found that this library was already installed to

Code:

/usr/lib/libltdl.so.3
/usr/lib/libltdl.so.3.1.0
/usr/share/doc/libltdl3-1.4.3
/usr/share/doc/libltdl3-1.4.3/README

I changed my $PATH variable to include these directories.

Code:

export PATH=$PATH&#58;/usr/lib&#58;/usr/share/doc

I still get the above error about libltdl however. Can anyone shed some light onto this?[/code]

did you also check for the devel package? it is different than the main package for the libraries...

**imported_Ghost** · 02-07-2004

I don't think I have that one but I searched my installation CDs and on the internet and I couldn't find those libraries.

libldtl* belongs to the libtool libraries.. make sure that you have libtool and libtool-devel installed

Ok I got libtools off the internet and reinstalled them and got past the part I was originally stuck at. Now a new problem has arisen. While I'm running ./configure for Apollon I get this:

Code:

checking for Qt... configure&#58; error&#58; Qt &#40;>= Qt 3.1 &#40;20021021&#41;&#41; &#40;headers and libraries&#41; not found. Please check your installation!

I know Qt is installed because I spent an hour compiling and installing it. But I can't make the ./configure see it.

did you check that the version of QT is >=3.1?? also, make sure that you have the QT *development* package installed.. that is what contains the header files and such that configure is looking for...

I have version 3.3. I went and installed the x11-free version of Qt 3.3. It still doesn't work. Is there a configuration file I should look for? What about an evnironment variable?

**lordnothing** · 02-17-2004

the package should be something like qt-<version>-devel-i386.rpm or whatever.. it will have the word "devel" in it.. the *development* packages are where all of the *headers* are...

I didn't use a .rpm file, I compiled from source. I'll try to find an rpm.

**imported_Ghost** · 02-18-2004

I give up. Installing this isn't worth all the trouble it's causing.
