Unofficial .deb (i386) packages
Currently tested with:
* Debian lenny * Ubuntu Hardy (8.04) * Ubuntu Intrepid (8.10) * Ubuntu Jaunty (9.04)
These are packages I (coyled) created and use to run an assortment of
regions in OSGrid (though there's nothing OSGrid-specific in these
packages). You're welcome to use, but please back up your OpenSim.ini,
- .xml, *.db, and other important files before installing, just in
 
case. But I use these packages on a regular basis, and they work fine for me.
Here you'll find repositories of three different flavors:
   "releases"
       -- official versioned releases (e.g. 0.6.3)
   "testing"
       -- the SVN revision number which is "recommended" for OSGrid
          region admins each week during the OpenSim developer office
          hours on Wright Plaza
   "unstable"
       -- an SVN revision number close to HEAD, usually no more than
          a couple days old
       -- this may contain untested changes and/or breakage
   
For Debian users, depending on which repository you choose above, add one of:
deb http://pkg.knifejaw.com/debian opensim releases modules
or:
deb http://pkg.knifejaw.com/debian opensim testing modules
or:
deb http://pkg.knifejaw.com/debian opensim unstable modules
to your /etc/apt/sources.list .
For Ubuntu users, depending on which repository you choose above, add
one of:
deb http://pkg.knifejaw.com/ubuntu opensim releases modules
or:
deb http://pkg.knifejaw.com/ubuntu opensim testing modules
or:
deb http://pkg.knifejaw.com/ubuntu opensim unstable modules
to your /etc/apt/sources.list .
Then run:
# apt-get update # apt-get install opensimulator
OpenSim will be installed in /usr/lib/opensim , logs will appear in /var/log/opensim , and it'll create an opensim user & group. It doesn't install any start/stop scripts, as people tend to have different preferences on how to do that.
