YPOPs! for Ubuntu

[anujseth]

Thomas Skariah has been kind enough to port YPOPs! for Ubuntu.

If you're interested in downloading the packages, visit his site: YPOPs! for Ubuntu

Thanks Thomas.

Is the modified source available? I can't get the CVS code to compile for me.

[anujseth]

The code in CVS is not sync'ed with the changes done by Thomas. That will take us a while to complete.

You could get in touch with Thomas for the sources he has.

Hi,

I've asked Thomas if he could compile a recent version and he did (my many thanks to Thomas as I now have email again)

As a reply to my request, Thomas said:

ok, I have built a new package of YPOPS! 0.9.5 for Debian-i386 platform. But since there are new changes committed after this release, I assume it is not very stable.

Seems stable enough for me so far...

Thanks Thomas, by the way!

Hi

Thanks Thomas for making such a nice tool's Ubuntu compatible package.

I have a tiny problem and I hope that you guys can help me.

I have installed Ypops in Ubuntu Fiesty, I can start it from terminal but after that from where am I supposed to access it? In windows I can see a taskbar icon but in Ubuntu I can't seem to find out anythig!!!

Please help me out..I need this piece of gem very badly.

Unfortunately, YPOPs for Ubuntu or any other linux platform does not have a GUI frontend . If you want to change the configuration, you would have to use a text editor to edit the file /etc/ypops.ini

I'm runnind Fedora (Red Hat based, not debian) so I can't use the new package. Is the source available anywhere?

Could someone post a direct link? Maybe I'm just blind, but I can't seem to find it on the site...

[Sarten-X]

Yep. I'm blind.

Not used to apt at all... bah.
