2. RSS Automation
3. ......

• 0.0.1

Dependancies

• cmake (make)
• git (make)
• boost
• glibmm

Compiling/Installing

GNU/Linux or Mac OS X

$ mkdir -p build/ && cd build/
$ cmake ..
$ make

Ubuntu notes

The version of libgtkmm in 14.04 is a bit out of date. To fix this do:

$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3-staging
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

ArchLinux

You have it easier, dumbass nerds and your "bleeding edge" repos. Install from the AUR

Windows

Requires CMake, MinGW, msys and all dependencies. Note that since gtorrent uses gtkmm/headerbar.h you must use at least gtkmm-3.9.16. (Note: I have not verified that gtkmm-3.9.16 is enough) This has dependencies ['giomm-2.4 >= 2.37.7 pangomm-1.4 >= 2.27.1 gtk+-3.0 >= 3.9.16 cairomm-1.0 >= 1.9.2 gdk-pixbuf-2.0 >= 2.22.1'`] Note that since the prebuilt gtk package for Windows is currently at 3.6.4, you must compile gtk yourself. This is a clusterfuck and is poorly supported but possible with enough hacking, good luck. Note: Libtorrent-rasterbar 1.0 fails to compile on Windows. It can be patched, but I recommend compiling the svn branch instead. Revision 10121 works for me with shared libraries compiled against shared boost with bjam. Since bjam does not generate files for pkg-config you should build with automake and install the one it creates to the appropriate directores. Additionally, the bjam script for building shared libraries is messed up and attempts to -lboost_system -lboost_chrono regardless of the libraries full name, so I recommend simply making a copy of the .dll and .dll.a with those names.

In a bash shell:

mkdir -p build/ && cd build/
cmake -G "MSYS Makefiles" ..
make
gTorrent.exe
