# tar jxvf iPodder-linux-2.1.tar.bz2 # cd iPodder-linux# sudo ./install.sh(take the defaults)
The only glitch is wx libraries aren't in the default PYTHONPATH, so set this environment variable either at the command line, or pop it in ~/.bashrc
export PYTHONPATH=/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/wx-2.5.3-gtk2-unicode/:$PYTHONPATH-unicode:$PYTHONPATH
Now clean up a little bit...
$ cd ../
$ rm -rf iPodder-linux iPodder-linux-2.1.tar.bz2
Now, you are all set to start iPodder!
$ (nohup iPodder&) # or add it to a menu bar button
Getting closer to not needing any special knowledge to get iPodder running on a GNU/Linux distro...

Just for searchers, this is the problem you see if you don't set the PYTHONPATH:
$ iPodder

It's fine up-to that pont. But it still needs some python-xmms stuff?? What should I install?

Are you in the /opt/iPodder directory when you startup? It looks like
ReplyDeletepython isn't finding iPodder-provided libraries.
I don't use iPodder to *listen* to the downloads and have set in iPodder's
preferences to use "No Player". If you can't even get iPodder up
and running, edit ipodder.cfg so there is a line that looks like this:
player_type = 'NoPlayer'
On startup there is a message saying "xmms couldn't be imported".
FWIW, here are the xmms-related packages I have installed.
$ dpkg --list|grep xmms
ii gxmms 0.2.1-2 Simple GNOME applet to control the basic fun
ii python-xmms 2.03-1ubuntu1 Python interface to XMMS
ii python2.3-xmms 2.03-1ubuntu1 Python interface to XMMS (Python 2.3 version

Thank you to all above. I ran into almost all of the above problems on my desktop machine, and if I had read more carefully, it would not have taken me the half hour it did to get everything working fine.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tip about PYTHONPATH.. I googled.. found it and now it works
ReplyDeleteNice one :)
