emelfm2, utility file manager, now with gtk2!

[landotter]

My favorite file manager for heavy duty work is now available in sexy gtk2! :D

Great for renaming series of files and changing permissions on recursive directories.

:)

Get it from here: http://master.grad.hr/~ivoks/ubuntu/emelfm2_0.1.0-1ubuntu1_i386.deb (http://master.grad.hr/%7Eivoks/ubuntu/emelfm2_0.1.0-1ubuntu1_i386.deb)

Its not in my synaptic. Which apt repository is it in?

[kleeman]

btw I compiled it from source (version 0.1.2) easily enough and it looks very nice. Thanks for the tip...

Ooopsies. It's only in Synaptic since I installed it. LOL, Wow, I feel stupid. :P

You can grab a Ubuntu deb here: http://master.grad.hr/~ivoks/ubuntu/emelfm2_0.1.0-1ubuntu1_i386.deb (http://master.grad.hr/%7Eivoks/ubuntu/emelfm2_0.1.0-1ubuntu1_i386.deb)

Please excuse me, I don't get out much. :D

Great, my favourite file manager now looks good too!

[buildid]

thanks , normally i use "mc" but this it seems iam gonna use this one for a while...

[Gandalf]

sudo mv /usr/X11R6/bin/emelfm2 /usr/local/bin/emelfm2

After that try it again.
/usr/X11R6/bin/emelfm2 is installed via the deb file so it's not advised at all to move it, please use symlinks instead!!


sudo ln -s /usr/X11R6/bin/emelfm2 /usr/bin/emelfm2

[ykpaiha]

how is it possible this one could be forgotten by Ubuntu!!!

mc is in repos but not emlfm2 !!!!

sad it's far before any, the easiest tool around...

Does anybody have a package for 64bit gutsy?

[cronos6]

same here, where I could find a 64bit version for Gusty ?

Thanks ;)

[kleeman]

Get one from here:

Anybody have the 32bit version for emelfm2 for gutsy?

My version that I used in Feisty core dumps all the time since I've updated to gutsy.

I downloaded the latest source-code release is: emelfm2-0.3.5.tar.gz (1055 kb) - 2007-07-27, from http://http://emelfm2.net/emelFM2

I untar'd the file then tried to compile.

$ make
Package gtk+-2.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `gtk+-2.0.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'gtk+-2.0' found

This tells me I don't have and environment variable called PKG_CONFIG_PATH
[QUOTE]$ env | grep PKG
@pacman:~$[/CODE]

Synaptic tells me that gtk2-engines is installed...is that the right package? I'm not sure what emelfm2 is looking for in order to compile.

emelfm2 version 2-0.3.6 was released yesterday
http://emelfm2.net/rel/emelfm2-0.3.6.tar.gz
fixes some annoying bugs with gnome.
-- DY

I was able to compile after installing libgtk2.0-dev

sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev

Then I did the make, sudo make install, and all was well.

emelfm2 works great in gutsy.

I tried to build a deb package by but for some reason my system can't find "configure."

bighead@pacman:~/mydownloads/emelfm2-0.3.6$ ./configure
bash: ./configure: No such file or directory


I installed checkinstall and tried to build the package as in the instructions below, but no-joy.

Create an Ubuntu (Debian) package (.deb)

Install package tools:

gksudo apt-get install checkinstall

Rebuild package using "checkinstall":

cd /path/to/extracted/package
./configure
make
checkinstall

Keep the resulting ".deb" file for future use. It can be installed using:

gksudo dpkg -i package.deb

Note: These are basic instructions that may not always work. Some packages require additional dependencies and optional parameters to be specified in order to build them successfully.
