Re: [Debian / Ubuntu] 1-line script: install Minetest Git
I had a problem similiar to that before...what I mean to say is that NO /.minetest was installed.
the error I keep getting is
EDIT: found the terminal error:
Is there a way I can change the version. It says that it's 0.4.13-dev-452dflc
is there something newer? or more stable?

Re: [Debian / Ubuntu] 1-line script: install Minetest Git
oh sweet merciful Calinou. Thank you for this code. My original post rings true once more.
Had to completely wipe my precise and go for trusty, but that also could just be coincidental. I had been messing around with stuff (nothing too bad but close enough for me to realize I skirted danger) and ended up with a 1 program not fully installed or removed and realized I probably messed around too much. It was just an easier solution to break it to the floor and start fresh.
I'm a smash it against the wall kinda girl Used to study architecture so this statement was literal at times.
So if nothing else I can say on a Samsung Chromebook armf 64-bit this code works like a dream.
Sincerely,
Belle

Re: [Debian / Ubuntu] 1-line script: install Minetest Git
On Debian 8.2 I got this:
After replacing libjpeg8-dev with libjpeg62-turbo-dev I was able to build Minetest.
EDIT: Oops, has already been mentioned on the page before, sorry.
Code: Select all
Package libjpeg8-dev is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
However the following packages replace it:
libjpeg62-turbo-dev

Re: [Debian / Ubuntu] 1-line script: install Minetest Git
Hello All,
I must say in advance I am sorry if this post is out of order.
I am new to your forum and very new to linux.
I am running Ubuntu 14.04 LTS in 64-bit on an AMD x4 640 CPU with 15gb ram.
I have installed and played with the game Minetest for a few days and have fell in love with it (I have had Minecraft for all most 4 years). Now since the switch to Ubuntu from windows my minecraft is so laggy but Minetest runs super, here is where my problems start.
1. My software center will only offers version 4.9 of minetest and I would like to get the newest version 4.13.
2. most of the code work I have found is dated and not working as listed, with me having no knowledge of how to work with on in linux I am so lost, but willing to learn.
What I need is someone to show (teach) me how to do things step by step.
Or show me where the information is already. Like I said I am very new to linux and now just enough to get in some deep water fast. LOL.
Thank you for your help.

@GreenIron7817, take a look here and ask anything that you don't understand:
https://launchpad.net/~minetestdevs/+ar ... ntu/stable
This page explains far better than I how to add a PPA in your system and how to upgrade it.
With this PPA installed on your system you'll get the last minetest stable release (0.4.13 at this moment).

Sure, I just need to have a reliable dependency list for Fedora. Simply put, I need to know which set of packages needs to be installed to make Minetest build, starting from a "bare" Fedora install.benrob0329 wrote:Would it be possible to make one for Fedora?

Re: [Debian / Ubuntu] 1-line script: install Minetest Git
This worked on both my laptop and my server, but I cannot figure out where to put mods. I have tried putting them in ~/.minetest/mods but this did not work, and on my server there is no longer a /usr/share/games/minetest directory. I have tried putting mods in the old directory which is showing on my laptop, but that does not work either.
Help would be greatly appreciated - my server depends heavily on mods and has now been down for almost 2 days.
My server is running Ubuntu Server 15.10 if that helps.
Thanks in advance for your help!

Re: [Debian / Ubuntu] 1-line script: install Minetest Git
If you used the portable method, you should put mods in the Minetest installation folder itself, that is, if you didn't change anything in the script, ~/minetest/mods (note the lack of a period before "minetest").endev15 wrote:This worked on both my laptop and my server, but I cannot figure out where to put mods.

If you used the non-portable method, you can use ~/.minetest/mods for an user-wide mod or /usr/share/games/minetest/mods (or /usr/share/minetest/mods, I don't remember) for a system-wide mod.

Re: [Debian / Ubuntu] 1-line script: install Minetest Git
Got it working. Turns out that by default the Minetest root folder on non-portable installation is in the local folder instead:Calinou wrote:If you used the portable method, you should put mods in the Minetest installation folder itself, that is, if you didn't change anything in the script, ~/minetest/mods (note the lack of a period before "minetest").endev15 wrote:This worked on both my laptop and my server, but I cannot figure out where to put mods.

Re: [Debian / Ubuntu] 1-line script: install Minetest Git
strange if I run the complete build script on a clean xubuntu system I get a 0.4.13dev version if I then run the update script I get the current 0.4.14dev version.
Re: [Debian / Ubuntu] 1-line script: install Minetest Git
It is possible to make a server with this Build?
Or is that only possible in the non-portable Build?
It would me nice if it is possible.
Please help.

I installed the new portable 0.4.14 Version, but there won't work the shift click to take stuff in other Inventors.
Is that only a Problem of the portable Version or is that a Problem from all Linux Versions.
I test the ctf Game there isn't the Problem.

Re: [Debian / Ubuntu] 1-line script: install Minetest Git
I tired this on my laptop and it worked until i had top fix a broken package via grub. I then tried unistalling it and reinstalling it and also updating it, none of the above worked. When i type minetest into terminal it throws this error at me:

Re: [Debian / Ubuntu] 1-line script: install Minetest Git
Okay I used this on a Lenovo B570 running Ubuntu 16.04, no problems so far.
But I was wondering whether would actually work, or whether it would say something like "minetest package not installed".
Also I tried building a .deb package with the "portable" install, IDK if it actually works though. Although I'd like to know all the essential program folders and files I need to package.
Thanks!
EDIT: It seems to work expect the only minetest folder I can find is in /usr/share/games/minetest and there is no mods folder, ie I don't know where to put my mods.
EDIT: Never mind this was a version downloaded from the Ubuntu reps.
But I was wondering whether
Code: Select all
sudo apt-get --purge remove minetest

Re: [Debian / Ubuntu] 1-line script: install Minetest Git
I made a script that you can pass options to. It creates a deb package that is installable, removable and likely to be shared. It also works out needed deps according to what you want to build. And offers to install them and continue. It's inspired by the Debian one liner in this topic and by studying the real packages.
I'll release when I've tested it and polished it up more.
