Revision as of 05:18, 19 January 2009
The following packages and their dependencies are required to run OpenSim on a default Debian 4 netinstall:
- mono
- libmono-corlib2.0-cil
- libmono-sqlite2.0-cil
- libmono-system-web2.0-cil
- libmono-microsoft8.0-cil
- libmono-system-runtime2.0-cil
- libmono-oracle2.0-cil (new dependency since r7587)
Hint #1: It is possible to use Debian Etch, but you will need to add custom repositories for mono to work. However installing or upgrading to Lenny/Sid will enable you to use the standard debian repositories. This is a good thing.
Hint #2: OpenSim will run on Mono 1.9.1, but seems to run a little better on Mono 2.0.1
Upgrading Etch to Lenny
I culled this from the a a little post on go2linux http://www.go2linux.org/upgrading-debian
To upgrade the Linux Debian Stable Etch to testing Lenny, just need to follow these two steps.
1. Edit sources.list
sudo vi /etc/apt/sources.list
and change all words etch to lenny, or stable to testing
2. Update and upgrade
sudo aptitude update
sudo aptitude install apt dpkg aptitude
sudo aptitude full-upgrade
Note: When I ran aptitude full-upgrade , I got a bunch of package configuration options - I took the safe option and just went with whatever it suggested. If you have no idea what you are doing (like me) then that's probably your best bet.
