Before I'm taking the plunge, can anyone verify that this would certainly work for Lenny AMD64?

What's so difficult about copy pasting 3 commands (and adding 1 line to a file) after I took the effort to explain exactly what to do?

I really appreciate your effort. Many thanks.

Your methods may work but is there any guarantee that if those ubuntu packages won't bork my system? Ubuntu only based on Debian but not it.

I'm use Debian Lenny on AMD64, and the appropriate Ubuntu packages work just fine. Doesn't the Spring install guide tell you to follow the Ubuntu directions?

In general, Ubuntu packages will work just fine -- try installing them and see. If a package installs, it's likely that it will work as expected.

did you start with:

Code: Select all

apt-get build-dep spring-engine

This makes me think that either you skipped it, or the check failed.

you can try

Code: Select all

apt-get install libsdl-dev libglew-dev libsablevm1-dev
to install the development packages it's complaining about and try again; if it mentions any more unmet build dependencies, you can install them like this.

Well, if you're dead-set on compiling, it's your choice. But the (COMPILED) Ubuntu packages really do work, FWIW.

Have you actually tried following the instructions on the Linux install guide? I assure you that those instructions worked quite well for me, who happens to be running Debian Lenny AMD64.

"Lenny" is the name of the current Debian Unstable release. Follow the instructions; you'll then be asked to follow directions for the Ubuntu install. While doing so, use the instructions for the latest release of Ubuntu, "Intrepid Ibex".

Afaik, Lenny is the current "testing" release

:oops: Yeh got me. Unstable is always named Sid -- I knew that! Shame, shame, shame. I think my ego is too large to hide...

In any case, my /etc/issue says that I'm using release 5.0, which would be Lenny. I used the "Unstable" instructions, though, and they worked for me. (It may be pertinent that I actually do use some packages from unstable -- but don't let that stop anyone who's running pure Lenny from trying the instructions for Unstable/Sid. Might work.)

I can't get it to work with Lenny. The Ubuntu package depends on a ton of libboost stuff that apt can't find. I just spent 3 hours installing countless packages from Unstable trying to meet the dependencies then found I couldn't. Can't compile from source either. Same problems. If anyone manages it, please share.

In summary, the compiled Ubuntu packages DO NOT work with Debian Lenny.

Edit: libsablevm1-dev seems to be the killer.
