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
+
 
+
This will also work when moving from Lenny to Sid.
+
 
+
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.
+
 
+
''' Getting the prerequisites '''
+
 
+
Ok first you need a bunch of stuff to get started - then you need Mono 2.0.1 (trembles) or better...
+
 
+
  aptitude install subversion ruby
+
  aptitude install nant ( this gets you a bunch of the mono stuff anyway )
+
  aptitude install build-essential swig autoconf gawk mono-common binfmt-support bison libglib2.0-dev
+
 
+
And a few more things...
+
 
+
  aptitude install libmono-microsoft8.0-cil
+
  aptitude install libmono-oracle2.0-cil
+
 
+
 
+
''' Install Mono 2.0.1 '''
+
 
+
Yes... you know you wan't to do it... this is one way ( compile from source ) there are several others but this worked for me.
+
 
+
  wget http://ftp.novell.com/pub/mono/sources/mono/mono-2.0.1.tar.bz2
+
  tar xf mono-2.0.1.tar.bz2
+
  cd mono-2.0.1
+
  ./configure --with-libgdiplus=yes
+
  make (you may see a bunch of warnings, but do what I did - ignore them)
+
  make install
+
 
+
Ok cool, now type "mono -V" and you should see something like this:
+
 
+
  Mono JIT compiler version 2.0.1 (tarball)
+
  Copyright (C) 2002-2008 Novell, Inc and Contributors. www.mono-project.com
+
  TLS:          __thread
+
  GC:            Included Boehm (with typed GC)
+
  SIGSEGV:      altstack
+
  Notifications: epoll
+
  Architecture:  x86
+
  Disabled:      none
+
 
+
''' Now for Opensim itself! '''
+
 
+
Just do this:
+
 
+
  svn co http://opensimulator.org/svn/opensim/trunk opensim (this may take a few minutes)
+
  cd opensim
+
  ./runprebuild.sh
+
  nant
+
 
+
nearly there...
+
 
+
  Make sure you rename the Opensim.ini.example file to Opensim.ini
+
 
+
  cd bin
+
  mono OpenSim.exe
+
 
+
 
+
Enjoy :)
