This script doesn't support Dapper (6.06); it only supports Edgy and Feisty. You can try these instead:

Actually it does install aMSN 0.96. It downloads the 0.96 tarball from SourceForge regardless of what version is in the repository. If you click on Help->About, you should see aMSN 0.96 (or 0.97 if...

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...

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...

Yep, definitely. In fact, before I wrote this script there was a thread on here that provided debs for installing the beta Tcl/Tk with aMSN. That's partly what prompted me to write this script.
...

Ah, unfortunately there isn't really a quick way to do that. The script uses the build-dep command in apt to install all the packages required to compile a package from source. Once you're done...

1) Those happen because the version of the toolkit we're using is still in alpha testing, so it has bugs. Unfortunately there isn't a stable build out with anti-aliasing support yet, which is why...

That looks like there are errors in your apt repositories. Edit the file /etc/apt/sources.list as root, and see if you can find the problem; if not, post the contents here and I'll see if I can fix...

Hmm, that's very strange. Can you pastebin the contents of your sources.list?

It seems the script is having trouble downloading the source code through Subversion. Try the snapshot version of the script here:

Hmm, that's very strange. The problem wasn't caused by not having removed aMSN; installing the old aMSN from the repository is the first thing the script does.

I'm also not sure why CVS login...

Thanks, I added these dependencies to the script.

If anyone else finds any more missing packages, let me know.

Since aMSN 0.96 has been released, I updated the script to install it instead of 0.96rc1. If aMSN is asking you whether you want to upgrade, tell it no, and simply download and run this script again.

Glad to hear.

I added error-checking throughout the script, so now if anything goes wrong, it will abort (leaving your original aMSN intact). I also added code to automatically clean up its...

Ah yes, sorry about that. I'm not sure why it can't find TLS. I spoke to the aMSN developers and they mentioned that the pkgIndex.tcl fix the script performs should let it find it, but it didn't work...

This is a fully automated script to add anti-aliasing support to aMSN. This will compile Tcl and Tk 8.5 and recompile aMSN 0.97 for it. This will NOT replace your existing Tcl/Tk installation, so...
