I don't like unstable software. Makes me nervous.

also I had a lot of trouble compiling it with Linux for some reason, so I don't want to install more and more versions all of the time.

What kind of troubles? Nowadays I always 'compile' the latests minetests through copy/paste from the readme.txt on the Github.

My personal experience is that the unstable versions of minetest are as stable as the stable ones. Also most current mods and servers are frequently updated to and/or depending on the newest (unstable) version of minetest.

Okay, I'll give it a try. Of course I don't have 12.04, so that could be part of it, I just don't know.

-edit- Oh yeah, no clue what I'm doing, thats why I use Stable. Because I can just use apt-get to install it.

Post it if you encounter problems, maybe I or some experienced Linux users can help you.

I tried updating using apt-get install and it siad I had the newest, so the repository maintainer must only use Stable. Whats the package for daily builds (for natty) so I can add it?

I do not know much about Linux. I do know I have the same text also often. After that I just start copying and pasting the text of the readme.txt in my LXTerminal. You tried that?

$ wget https://github.com/celeron55/minetest/tarball/master -O master.tar.gz
$ tar xf master.tar.gz
$ cd celeron55-minetest-286edd4 (or similar) (celeron55-minetest-25cf375 now, I compiled it yesterday)
$ cd games/
$ wget https://github.com/celeron55/minetest_g ... all/master -O master.tar.gz
$ tar xf master.tar.gz
$ mv celeron55-minetest_game-* minetest_game
$ cd ..
$ cmake . -DRUN_IN_PLACE=1
$ make -j2 (takes around 5 minutes)

Edit: I don't get the 'I have to use the stable' part

Because there are stable builds and daily builds of Minetest.

Edit1: CPed the whole mess of text, minus some edits to not confuse Terminal. Lets see what happens.

Edit2: A whole mess of nothing happened, error msgs everywhere, minor explosions.

I never spent much thought about that, I assume I always go for the daily build because of copying and pasting the text of my previous post.. So I can recommend that one.Thinking about it, this Daily build is around 20 days old.

Copy and paste a line at a time, and then press enter.
Copy and paste the next line, and press enter.
Do not copy/paste the $ --> That indicates the $ in your terminal

Sorry for my too short explanation :-/

I edited out the $ and (stuff in paranthesis) and Terminal should have been able to handle them all at once, since it reads each command and finishes it before moving on, but I'll try it one at a time. Cant hurt.

Normally I open my file manager to look for the most recent minetest name when I get here: $ cd celeron55-minetest-286edd4 (or similar) (celeron55-minetest-25cf375 now, I compiled it yesterday)

Lol. I tried 3 times to paste plain text, what worked, but it kept putting url before it, even when I removed it...

Good to read you solved it!

try with the full name from the terminal. It must work!

edit:

The only difference with the previous link is that here there's _game behind minetest, making the link to long to display all the text

Did step 3 and 4 go well/were you working from the right directory??

$ cd celeron55-minetest-25cf375
$ cd games/


edit: Or did you already do step 8 (moving) before 7?
$ mv celeron55-minetest_game-* minetest_game


Sorry I'm running out of options :-/


EDIT: I saw you are working in the right directory. Is the minetest_game tar in that directory?

gives me

Inspiron-600m:/home/celeron55-minetest-25cf375/games$ tar xf master.tar.gz
tar: This does not look like a tar archive

gzip: stdin: unexpected end of file
tar: Child returned status 1

In my /home/TOPYWO/celeron55-minetest-25cf375/games folder I have a file called master.tar.gz.

When I doubleclick it I see: celeron55-minetest_game-87a1e37

Try this if you still want: Go with your file manager to:

Inspiron-600m:/home/celeron55-minetest-25cf375/games

Under tools (upper line of your file manager, you have the option to open the current folder in the terminal. So do it.

then try again this line:

WITH https after wget and before ://

wget ://github.com/celeron55/minetest_game/tarball/master -O master.tar.gz

I took https out for this post, because the forum keeps making a link of it. You must in your terminal put it between wget and :// but attached to ://

Sorry for this way of writing but I'd hate to make typo's

New mess

-- Could NOT find IRRLICHT (missing: IRRLICHT_LIBRARY IRRLICHT_INCLUDE_DIR)
-- GetText disabled
-- Could NOT find OpenAL (missing: OPENAL_LIBRARY OPENAL_INCLUDE_DIR)
-- Could NOT find VORBIS (missing: OGG_INCLUDE_DIR VORBIS_INCLUDE_DIR OGG_LIBRARY VORBIS_LIBRARY VORBISFILE_LIBRARY)
-- Sound enabled, but OpenAL not found!
-- Sound enabled, but Vorbis libraries not found!
CMake Error at src/CMakeLists.txt:65 (message):
Sound enabled, but cannot be used.

To continue, either fill in the required paths or disable sound.
(-DENABLE_SOUND=0)


-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

-edit- I don't use sound anyways. So no loss there but I may need the rest of it.

No problem, I'm not tired yet :-)

Close and open your terminal and type:

apt-get install build-essential libirrlicht-dev cmake libbz2-dev libpng12-dev libjpeg8-dev libxxf86vm-dev libgl1-mesa-dev libsqlite3-dev libogg-dev libvorbis-dev libopenal-dev

First time I compiled I missed half of this line. I guess you have the same problem.

Then go to:

Inspiron-600m:/home/celeron55-minetest-25cf375

i think the cd.. let's you move from your /game folder to your celeron55-minetest-25cf375, so go to that folder.

Now try again:
cmake . -DRUN_IN_PLACE=1

and then:
make -j2
