[OpenAFS-devel] afs ppc

[Tim Spriggs]

Hi Emmanuele,

  You can try "apt-get install openafs-client". If that doesn't work then
you might try adding the testing tree of debian to your sources.list:

  deb http://mirrors.kernel.org/debian/ testing main non-free contrib

# apt-get update
# apt-get install openafs-client

  This should work, but if the Ubuntu sources are different enough, you
might not want to use these. If the dependancies are not quite the same
then you could have the package built from the sources provided. You'll
need the sources entry to do this:

  deb-src http://http://mirrors.kernel.org/debian/ testing main non-free contrib

# apt-get update
# apt-get source openafs-client
# cd openafs-1.4.0
# dpkg-buildpackage

  This will build the packages on your machine and then you can install
them manually by using "dpkg -i (package file.deb)"

  Let me know how it turns out.

Thanks,
-Tim
