Need Help Installing lmule in SuSE8.2, SVP
Hello all, I am having a few problems understanding how one installs lmule in SuSE 8.2. After looking through the archives I found the following instructions: #### start #####
Download http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/lmule/lmule-1.2.1-1.src.rpm?download, install it and build your own binary RPM via 'rpm -bb'. Otherwise you won't be able to run the lmule of that package due to incompatible libraries (in your case wxWindows).
Philipp
Thanks Philipp. It complained about some wxWindows packages I was missing but once those were installed everything worked like a charm. #### end ##### so I downloaded lmule-1.2.1-1.src.rpm but when I run rpm -bb lmule-1.2.1-1.src.rpm I get the following message. linux:/ftp/Install/Lmule # rpm -bb lmule-1.2.1-1.src.rpm File /ftp/Install/Lmule/lmule-1.2.1-1.src.rpm does not appear to be a specfile. linux:/ftp/Install/Lmule # rpm -b lmule-1.2.1-1.src.rpm rpm: --build (-b) requires one of a,b,i,c,p,l as its sole argument Would someone please be so kind as to give me a few specific pointers on how to install lmule. TIA James

Did you try: (from man rpm) Building: rpm [--rebuild] [sourcerpm]+ -- Richard Bos Without a home the journey is endless

rpm -bb aplies to the spec file, that should be after rpm expansion in /usr/src/packages/SPECS/ -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson
