Having trouble configuring VPS

Post by Agility »

In the past I used this link to setup my server

http://wiki.armagetronad.org/index.php? ... x_computer

However, once I get to this step things go bad...

sudo apt-get install bzr build-essential automake libboost-dev libxml2-dev libsdl-image1.2-dev libsdl-mixer1.2-dev ftgl-dev libglew-dev bison pkg-config autoconf autotools-dev libprotobuf-dev protobuf-compiler

Error message comes up and everything does not download.

I was running ubuntu 18.04 but I reimaged my vps to run debian 10 thinking that would solve the case. Not sure what to do.

What's the error message? It is likely one of those packages is either not in apt-get or the package name has changed.

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package ftgl-dev
root@localhost:/home#

And I know running from root is dangerous but I forget how to setup a user with all privileges lol

FTGL I believe is only a requirement for the client. Either way, try adding `--ignore-missing` before `install` to the apt command to ignore nonexistent packages.

If you want to include it, I believe the package name is now libftgl-dev
