This is a history of my attempts at running tahoe-lafs in a fresh pogoplug v4 with archlinuxarm:
v1.9.2
Preparation:
# #Can't go straight to building v1.10 from source without dependencies, so go for the AUR-based package to get dependencies installed # #Install an AUR helper, python and build tools # pacman -S yaourt python2 gcc patch .. snip .. # #Make 'python2' available as 'python' # ln -s /usr/bin/python2 /usr/local/bin/python
Installation:
# yaourt -S tahoe-lafs
This is the first list:
==> tahoe-lafs dependencies: - net-tools (already installed) - python2 (already installed) - python2-zope-interface>=3.6.5 (package found) - twisted (package found) - python2-pyasn1 (package found) - python2-crypto (package found) - pycryptopp (building from AUR) - nevow (building from AUR) - python2-foolscap (package found) - python2-simplejson (package found) - zfec (building from AUR) - python2-pyopenssl (package found) - pyutil (building from AUR) - python2-argparse (building from AUR) - zbase32 (building from AUR) - python2-mock>=0.6.0 (building from AUR)
Arch will then try to install each of these. Some packages do not list 'arm' as a valid/supported architecture, so you will have to manually edit the PKGBUILD file:
==> Continue building python2-mock ? [Y/n]
==> --------------------------------------
==>
==> Building and installing package
==> WARNING: Building package as root is dangerous.
Please run yaourt as a non-privileged user.
==> ERROR: python2-mock is not available for the 'arm' architecture.
Note that many packages may need a line added to their PKGBUILD
such as arch=('arm').
==> ERROR: Makepkg was unable to build python2-mock.
==> Restart building python2-mock ? [y/N]
==> -------------------------------------
==> y
==> Edit PKGBUILD ? [Y/n] ("A" to abort)
==> ------------------------------------
==> y
Please add $EDITOR to your environment variables
for example:
export EDITOR="vim" (in ~/.bashrc)
(replace vim with your favorite editor)
==> Edit PKGBUILD with: vim
.. [edited PKGBUILD and manually added 'arm' to the architectures] ..
The same happened to the following packages:
pycryptopp zbase32 zfec
Eventually, all the dependencies will be installed. But my tahoe-lafs installation fails to complete because of some error:
==> Continue building tahoe-lafs ? [Y/n]
==> ------------------------------------

And, as normal user:

[y/N] ==> ----------------------------------- ==>
Will try in an arm virtual machine with more memory. Stay tuned.
v1.10.0
After you're done with all of that, try a standalone v1.10 again:
$ unzip allmydata-tahoe-1.10.0.zip .. snip .. $ cd allmydata-tahoe-1.10.0 $ python setup.py build .. snip .. $ ./bin/tahoe --version allmydata-tahoe: 1.10.0 foolscap: 0.6.4 pycryptopp: 0.6.0.1206569328141510525648634803928199668821045408958 zfec: 1.4.24 Twisted: 13.0.0 Nevow: 0.10.0 zope.interface: unknown python: 2.7.4 platform: Linux-Arch_Linux_-armv5tel-32bit_ELF pyOpenSSL: 0.13 simplejson: 3.2.0 pycrypto: 2.6 pyasn1: 0.1.4 mock: 1.0.1 setuptools: 0.6c16dev4
Still need to test web interface, storage node, etc.
Also, the test suite will not complete:
$ python setup.py trial
running update_version
no version-control data found, leaving _version.py alone
