Title: AMD64 build libs required
Post by: bob on April 07, 2015, 10:34:29 am

Information for people trying to run on unsupported distros.

Many of these require other libs. If you have your dependencies in place you should be able to get MC to work.
The version of the library is important. Major version revisions often have different API's and as such won't work.

For Wheezy (builds prior to 20.0.100):

Code: [Select]

libidn11 1.25
libgnutls26 2.12
libgcrypt11 1.5
libgpg-error0 1.10
libtasn1-3 2.13
libuuid1 2.20
For Jessie:

Code: [Select]

libp11-kit0
libtasn1-6
libgnutls-deb0-28
libgcrypt20
libidn11 >=1.28
libuuid1

Standard libs that should exist on any linux AMD64 GUI platform.

Code: [Select]

libpthread
libdl
librt
libX11
libXext
These graphics libs and their dependencies should exist on most any linux AMD64 GUI platform. You may need to retrieve proper versions.

Code: [Select]

libgtk2.0 2.24
libglib-2.0 2.32
libgl1 or libgl1-mesa-glx
xdg-utils
exo-utils or kde-runtime or konqueror  or gvfs-bin or libgnome2-0 or pcmanfm

The base (PCF ONLY) Lucida font is usually found in

Code: [Select]

xfonts-75dpi
The actual default font is the following:

Code: [Select]

-b&h-lucida-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-p-71-iso10646-1
The unifont is the following:

Code: [Select]

-gnu-unifont-medium-r-normal--16-160-75-75-c-80-iso10646-1

For the clueless amongst us [yep, me again], how do you add these libs to a system?

Is it a simple:

Code: [Select]

sudo apt-get install ??

Or is it something more involved?

This information is mainly for people trying to get MC running on non-debian based distros (Suse, Centos, etc).
Debian based distros like Ubuntu and Mint would likely get everything they need by using the MC apt repositories.
