Hi Johan,
Unfortunately the actual names of the packages vary across distros, so I
can't only warn about the generic package name. People will have to
figure out what that actually means on their favourite distro.
I'm not sure what your git package fail is. Try removing it completely
from /opt/ltib/usr/src/rpm/BUILD/ and re-try. If that fails you need to
look at why the directory bld is empty or unreadable (as seen in your
output):
(cd blt && tar cf - .) |
BTW: please feel free to send patches to improve the project. You may
be the first on Mint (I've never tried).
Regards, Stuart

Hi Stuart,
Thanks for your reply. I'm a few steps further now, but ltib is not
working yet. See below.
The wget command works, and produces exactly the expected output, so
network connectivity seems fine. Also, I know I am not behing a proxy.
Anyway, I have installed libwww-perl and the initial messages have
disappeared. Also, the rpm-4.0.4.tar.gz error has disappeared.
The next error was that the 'flex' command was not found, so I have
done `sudo apt-get install flex' as well, and manually removed
/opt/ltib/usr/src/rpm/BUILD/lkc-1.4 before retrying. Shouldn't a check
for flex have been included earlier in the ltib script?
Anyway, I tried again, and now I get the following error for the git:

As a side note, ltib initially complained about a number of missing
packages, including ncurses-devel and zlib-devel. However, 'apt-get
install ncurses-devel' and 'apt-get install zlib-devel' cannot find
these packages (in the default Mint repositories). It took me some
time to figure out that libncurses5-dev and zlib1g-dev provide the
required functionality. Would it be a good idea to include this
information in the ltib output, so that other first-time installers
don't loose time?

Hi Johan,
The warnings mean that ltib can't test whether or not
proxies/networking is available.
I suspect from your error: "Can't get: rpm-4.0.4.tar.gz at ./ltib
line 834".
you have network connectivity problem.
To check this, on the machine you're running ltib, make sure you
can run:
wget -q -O - bitshrine.org/gpp/rpm-4.0.4.tar.gz.md5
<http://bitshrine.org/gpp/rpm-4.0.4.tar.gz.md5>
It should show: b92c46d5add17d6edff235d776cc1af3 rpm-4.0.4.tar.gz
If that doesn't work you don't have Internet access. That means
you may need to configure the .ltibrc if you're behind a proxy.
Ideally you should install the missing HTTP::Request::Common and
LWP::UserAgent Perl modules, these should be in libwww-perl, so:
sudo apt-get install libwww-perl

Hi,
I'm trying to install ltib on Linux Mint 1.6, but no succes: the
error is "Can't get: rpm-4.0.4.tar.gz at ./ltib line 834".
This is the first time that I am trying to use LTIB. I did the
following:
cvs -z3
-d:pserver:[email protected]:/sources/ltib co -P ltib
cd ltib
./ltib
Output is:
Don't have HTTP::Request::Common
Don't have LWP::UserAgent
Cannot test proxies, or remote file availability without both
HTTP::Request::Common and LWP::UserAgent
Installing host support packages.
This only needs to be done once per host, but may take up to
an hour to complete ...
If an error occurs, a log file with the full output may be found in:
/home/johan/ltib/host_config.log
If you would like to see the log messages as the host packages
are built and
installed:
* Open another terminal in the same directory
* Run the command: tail -f host_config.log
* When you're done with the tail, use CTRL+C to exit
Exiting on error or interrupt
Please see >> /home/johan/ltib/host_config.log for details
I don't understand the first four lines (about HTTP and LWP); is
this related?
Here are the contents of host_config.log:
