| 1 | This is a history of my attempts at running tahoe-lafs in a fresh pogoplug v4 with archlinuxarm: |
| 2 | |
| 3 | Preparation: |
| 4 | {{{ |
| 5 | # #Can't go straight to building v1.10 from source without gcc, so go for the AUR-based package to get dependencies installed |
| 6 | # #Install an AUR helper, python and build tools |
| 7 | # pacman -S yaourt python2 gcc patch |
| 8 | .. snip .. |
| 9 | # #Make 'python2' available as 'python' |
| 10 | # ln -s /usr/bin/python2 /usr/local/bin/python |
| 11 | }}} |
| 12 | |
| 13 | Installation: |
| 14 | {{{ |
| 15 | # yaourt -S tahoe-lafs |
| 16 | }}} |
| 17 | |
| 18 | This is the first list: |
| 19 | {{{ |
| 20 | ==> tahoe-lafs dependencies: |
| 21 | - net-tools (already installed) |
| 22 | - python2 (already installed) |
| 23 | - python2-zope-interface>=3.6.5 (package found) |
| 24 | - twisted (package found) |
| 25 | - python2-pyasn1 (package found) |
| 26 | - python2-crypto (package found) |
| 27 | - pycryptopp (building from AUR) |
| 28 | - nevow (building from AUR) |
| 29 | - python2-foolscap (package found) |
| 30 | - python2-simplejson (package found) |
| 31 | - zfec (building from AUR) |
| 32 | - python2-pyopenssl (package found) |
| 33 | - pyutil (building from AUR) |
| 34 | - python2-argparse (building from AUR) |
| 35 | - zbase32 (building from AUR) |
| 36 | - python2-mock>=0.6.0 (building from AUR) |
| 37 | }}} |
| 38 | |
| 39 | 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: |
| 40 | |
| 41 | {{{ |
| 42 | ==> Continue building python2-mock ? [Y/n] |
| 43 | ==> -------------------------------------- |
| 44 | ==> |
| 45 | ==> Building and installing package |
| 46 | ==> WARNING: Building package as root is dangerous. |
| 47 | Please run yaourt as a non-privileged user. |
| 48 | ==> ERROR: python2-mock is not available for the 'arm' architecture. |
| 49 | Note that many packages may need a line added to their PKGBUILD |
| 50 | such as arch=('arm'). |
| 51 | ==> ERROR: Makepkg was unable to build python2-mock. |
| 52 | ==> Restart building python2-mock ? [y/N] |
| 53 | ==> ------------------------------------- |
| 54 | ==> y |
| 55 | ==> Edit PKGBUILD ? [Y/n] ("A" to abort) |
| 56 | ==> ------------------------------------ |
| 57 | ==> y |
| 58 | |
| 59 | Please add $EDITOR to your environment variables |
| 60 | for example: |
| 61 | export EDITOR="vim" (in ~/.bashrc) |
| 62 | (replace vim with your favorite editor) |
| 63 | |
| 64 | ==> Edit PKGBUILD with: vim |
| 65 | |
| 66 | .. [edited PKGBUILD and manually added 'arm' to the architectures] .. |
| 67 | }}} |
| 68 | |
| 69 | The same happened to the following packages: |
| 70 | {{{ |
| 71 | pycryptopp |
| 72 | zbase32 |
| 73 | zfec |
| 74 | }}} |
| 75 | |
| 76 | Eventually, all the dependencies will be installed. But my tahoe-lafs installation fails to complete because of some error: |
| 77 | {{{ |

| 119 | Will try in an arm virtual machine with more memory. Stay tuned. |
