hello there,

i get a small problem with the i386 package; I'm running Mint 17.3.

installing the .deb the configuration script results in an error with a wrong symlink (screenshot attached).

ln error string basically says (in italian on my system) "/usr/local/bin/attract and /usr/local/bin/attract are the same file".

the problem does not show up with the amd64 .deb on another Mint 17.3 system I have.

thank you for creating this packages, good job! :-)

HI! I'm a total newb. Not only to Attract-Mode, but to Ubuntu as well. I've managed to install all the packages listed in the 1.5.2, and many others not listed, that the installer kept saying I needed. I've gotten to a point where I already have gcc install, but the libstdc++6-4.9 is telling me that I need gcc-4.9-base. The Software center says my already installed copy is newer, so why doesnt libstdc++6-4.9 recognize this?

I've been installing packages for over 3 hours now. Can anyone please help?

I'm trying to install 1.6.2

Thanks in advance.

P.S. By newb I mean I've just install Ubuntu for the first time ever less than 6 hours ago. Converting over from Windows 7.

Wow! I feel so stupid. Rookie mistake. Kept accidentally clicking on 1.5.2 which wanted dependencies. Clicked on 1.6.2 worked fine. Thanks!

hello, i confirm the bug in the i386 package: the "postinst" has a typo in it.

to correct the bug, just extract the package using dpkg-deb, edit "postinst" and re-create the package.

original "postinst" code

Code: [Select]
#! /bin/bash -e

ln -fs "/usr/local/bin/attract" "/usr/local/bin/attract"

should be

Code: [Select]
#! /bin/bash -e

ln -fs "/usr/local/bin/attract" "/usr/bin/attract"

as in the amd64 package

i attach my corrected package to this message

Thank you very much for that!

    I never could get it to work on mint 17.2 or 17.3 (couldn't get it to compile either...but it compiled/worked on everything else!

Although this was my mistake  :-[

Hi Akafox,
I was wondering if you had the chance to install ubuntu 16.04 and tried to compile attractmode on that system?
What packages did you install on 15.10 to compile?
Thanks

I am installing 16.04 as I type this actually. I have not tried to compile yet..however I will do so no later than tomorrow.

As for a list of packages..let me get back to you on that after I find my notes. Been awhile.

Great akafox.  I would appreciate it if you can successfully compile it on 16.04.  I thought I installed every required prerequisites but always fail near the very end.
I rather have attractmode running in pure ubuntu than to have to run it in a iWindows 7 virtualbox.

are you asking for a 1.6.2 for 16.04? the package may install even on 16.04 haven't tried..but I can.

One reason i waited is because ray posted 2.0 on the 20th..and 16.04 came out the next day.
