Updating version
« on: November 30, 2005, 01:00:13 am »
The server has just gone down for a restart, and I\'ve run the updater (It seemed to work, although there wasn\'t much to update).

Now when I try to log back in it tells me that my version isn\'t correct. I think this is Linux specific, because laanx.fragnetics.com says that there are 17 people logged in.

Same for me

It is the same for me : I update and server said that I have a bad version...
Two possibilities :
1) a Linux specific issue (I run a Slackware current)
2) The mirror I use to downlaod updates (solome or something like that) is not up-to-date.

There\'s been an update (about 30 minutes ago). You\'ll have to wait for new binaries or build from source.

Yes, I must apoligize for that.  One of my long standing tasks is to make sure the updater works well so that I can add linux binaries to it.
It seems like everytime I get started I end up working on something else.   Right now I have a pretty full list of stuff to do so I cannot say when I will get on it.  I will do my best though.   So linux people don\'t feel left out!  

Right now your only action is to rebuild your psclient from source ( only need to update planeshift code base to today, no changes in CS or CEL. )

I thought the update was just a few bits of data or something. Does that mean that it\'s now version 0.3.013?

Is that the CVS source we need to build from?

It\'s not quite  0.3.013 yet which is scheduled for a few weeks.  We didn\'t update CS/CEL just PS code to the latest date. So if you are building from source use today\'s date for planeshift source code.

The assumption here is that as Linux user, you know how to access CVS.

I for one am not a programmer, and can make no sense of CVS at all.

If a source tarball was available that I am capable of using, otherwise I\'ll just have to wait.

Needless to say I am slightly dissappointed.

Working on it.  ( I know I\'ve said that before but I actually am ).  How would you feel about a script that uses cvs?  So everything would be wrapped and you would just have to run something like ./rebuild.sh?

I guess along the lines of how gentoo does an emerge.

Thankyou.
« Reply #8 on: November 30, 2005, 02:43:32 am »
I would certainly appreciate it, as no doubt would others in the same situation as myself.

I am not totally unfamiliar with the command line, and am even capable of writing simple bash scripts, so not a deadset Linux newbie, just not a programmer.

Cheers.

Windows uses .exe to denote an \'exe\'cutable file.

Running the Planeshift updater should solve your problem

I am unable to be more helpful sorry, but I can say that your operating system is not Linux.

Cheers.

I just created the snap shots for the code, uploaded them, created a web page and then realized they were of the wrong date.   I am a bit strung out tonight so I will have to re-generate them and upload them again, probably won\'t have time tonight so will be tomorrow sometime.

Just wondering, wuld this ./rebuild.sh be for the source version or binary version (well the 3.11 patched twice to current 3.12)?

I an use the commandline and compile source code, but always end up with heaps of problems with the PS project, thus now only use the binary versions.

As I understand the ./rebuild.sh script would get you the latest sources from the CVS repository and build binaries from them and you shouldn\'t need any patches. Of course you still need to get updates for the art files.

It cannot be used as a generic installation method for Linux users, because not too many of us have development packages installed, like cvs, compilers, header files etc.
