[fixed] Linux mint-- setupBuildDeps.sh script for svn doesn't... linux mint OS

[jammyjamjamman]

Running the script puts up the error message:

Code: [Select]

We have detected the following system:
 [ LinuxMint ] [ 13 ] [ maya ] [ x86_64 ]

On supported systems, we will now install build dependencies.

Unsupported Linux distribution.

Please report a bug at http://bugs.megaglest.org providing the following information:
--- snip ---
SVN version:  3793
LSB support:  1
Distribution: LinuxMint
Release:      13
Codename:     maya
--- snip ---

For now, you may want to take a look at the build hints on the MegaGlest wiki at http://wiki.megaglest.org/
If you can come up with something which works for you, please report back to us, too. Thanks!

I reckon if you were to get the script to recognise mint and run as if it was using Ubuntu it should work  .

Should be added now into svn

Thanks Softcoder (I didn't get around to it, yet).
Jammy: You can get a copy of the script with Softcoders' changes from http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/megaglest/browser/trunk/mk/linux/setupBuildDeps.sh - it can safely replace your old copy, just be sure to make it executable after downloading, e.g.:

Code: [Select]

cd megaglest-3.7.0-beta2
mv setupBuildDeps.sh setupBuildDeps.sh.orig
wget http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/megaglest/browser/trunk/mk/linux/setupBuildDeps.sh
# The next one step is optional, to see what has been changed:
diff setupBuildDeps.sh.orig setupBuildDeps.sh
chmod +x setupBuildDeps.sh
sudo ./setupBuildDeps.sh

Thanks. The script works fine now.
