Automatic Script for Anti-Aliasing aMSN

[keith_21]

Hi, I'm a beginner to Linux, and I was having difficulty installing this script. I get the error

E: You must put some 'source' URIs in your sources.list
ERROR: Could not install build dependencies.

Any ways to fix this? Thanks in advance.

Hello. I've tried to install this script, but when the installation was finishing, I've got the next error:

application-specific initialization failed: too many nested evaluations (infinite loop?)

Ah, it seems your sources.list is missing the deb-src repositories. Can you please post the contents of the file /etc/apt/sources.list? I assumed they were just commented, but if you're missing the lines altogether, I may need to modify the script to add them.

Hello. I've tried to install this script, but when the installation was finishing, I've got the next error:

Ooh, that's a strange one. This may be a compilation bug in Alpha 5 that has since been fixed; you can try compiling it from CVS instead. Launch the script with the cvs command-line option, like this:

bash fixamsn.sh cvs

Hopefully that will help.

Hello!
I have got the same error like guyz Th1eF` and supersrbin2000.
I use Ubuntu Edgy Eft.

Here are the last few rows from console:

Reading state information... Done
E: Can not open file
/var/lib/apt/lists/ubuntu.beryl-project.org_dists_edgy_main-edgy_source_Sources - open (2 No such file or directory)
ERROR: Could not install build dependencies.

Here is my sources.list

Could you help us, please?
Thank you!!

Edit: I have found amsn_0.96+dfsg1-0ubuntu2_i386.deb (but is is for Feisty Fawn) when I try to install it says: Dependency error: libc6.
So I think we need a script for older version 0.95 of amsn which is in Edgy Eft`s repository. Am I wrong?

[iGama]

I'm going to try and update the script so it creates .deb packages if i succed i will share it.

Alright, I updated the script to use its own sources.list, so it should fix the problems you guys are having. Give it a try and let me know if it still doesn't work.

Also, I don't recommend using the cvs option right now; the current aMSN trunk seems to segfault while starting up.

Thank you a lot, man!!! Now it works withou ANY problems, I have got 0.95 aMSN installed

BTW: you should change the installating information from " amsn 0.96 will be installed" to "amsn version from you repository will be installed".

I wonder you know how can I add amsn icon to the up-right corner of my window border. See the screenshot.

I just want to point out that you HAVE TO be very careful with the new "clean" option since it removes your ~/.amsn directory, with all your options and conversation logs.
I really don't understand why it has been inserted!!

I just got this:

svn: PROPFIND request failed on '/svnroot/amsn/trunk/amsn'
svn: PROPFIND of '/svnroot/amsn/trunk/amsn': Could not read status line: Secure connection truncated (https://svn.sourceforge.net)
