Repository
From The DarkMod Wiki
Contents |
To make it easier to install Darkradiant for Ubuntu and Kubuntu users, we have created an repository, which is located here:
http://www.bloodgate.com/mirrors/tdm/pub/packages/
The repository contains packages for 32 bit (i386) and 64 bit (amd64).
Using the repository
You can enter it into your package management apt like so:
Open up a root shell (or use a normal shell and do sudo su) then add the following line to your /etc/apt/sources.list file:
Ubuntu/Kubuntu
echo "deb http://bloodgate.com/mirrors/tdm/pub/packages XXX main" >>/etc/apt/sources.list
where you need to replace XXX with the codename for your release. Here is a list:
- Ubuntu/Kubuntu 7.10: gutsy
- Ubuntu/Kubuntu 8.04: hardy
- Ubuntu/Kubuntu 8.10: intrepid
- Ubuntu/Kubuntu 9.04: jaunty
- Ubuntu/Kubuntu 9.10: karmic
Example line:
echo "deb http://bloodgate.com/mirrors/tdm/pub/packages karmic main" >>/etc/apt/sources.list
for Ubuntu/Kubuntu 9.10.
Basically, append the right line to the file /etc/apt/sources.lst once.
Then run:
apt-get update apt-get install darkradiant apt-get install darkradiant-plugins-darkmod
In the future, you will be automatically informed of updates to Darkradiant :)
Last resort
For Debian-based distributions, you can also download the .deb files directly from:
http://www.bloodgate.com/mirrors/tdm/pub/packages/pool/main
How to put new DEB files into the repository
This information is for the developers, or for anyone who wants to maintain an updated repository somewhere else:
If you want to update the repo, you need to do:
- sync the remote directory
http://www.bloodgate.com/mirrors/tdm/pub/packages/to a local copy (using any FTP client you want) - put a new DEB file in the correct directory under
packages/pool/main/[UBUNTU_RELEASE], then run:
./regen_repo.sh
Afterwards, upload the changed/new files with FTP to bloodgate.com.
Or just send the link to the new DEB file to either OrbWeaver, Greebo or Tels.
Note: You need an FTP account for this, if you are not one of the people already with one, you won't be able to update Bloodgate.com. Sorry :)
