This is 100% guaranteed to work in a Bourne Again shell environment (bash or sh). Other shell solutions to be posted shortly.
So much work is going into making a detailed installer for all methods that I have a new idea.
I think a new modified installer is in order. I will make a script that will do all the necessary magic with the LimeWireLinux.tgz tarballs and possibly the RPM packages.
This has been updated Aug 16, 2002.
ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Each Post will be categorialized by installation method in relation to packaging scheme (ie rpm, emerge, tarballs, and deb) Not in that exact order mind you. Let us begin with the RPM enthusiasts out there using blackdown:

I had posted to these forums a solution to everyones' ails (no complaints or disagreements so far) and I will repost my solution to this thread.
<snip>
**Note**
This portion is for blackdown java vm instructions. Scroll further down for other instructions for IBM and Sun.
********
I get this when I do:
java -version
<output>
java version "1.3.1"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build Blackdown-1.3.1-02b-FCS)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build Blackdown-1.3.1_02b-FCS, mixed mode)
</output>
Make the appropriate changes depending on where you installed your java installation whether it be sdk or jre:
I put where I downloaded my j2sdk1.3.1-02b-FCS:
/usr/lib/j2sdk1.3.1
You can find your path by typing this command:
which -b java
into my PATH in my .bash_profile:
(Using vi, a linux editor like windows "edit" program, type:
vi .bash_profile
press "i" (eye) to insert/edit/add the following.)
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/j2sdk1.3.1
export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH
(Hit "Esc" to end editing. Then type:
:wq
to save and quit).
If you are in a graphical environment using KDE, Gnome, blackbox, etc use kate, kwrite, or gedit instead.
After doing that, I remove kaffe from my system but I have a dependency problem with my wizard packages. I do this command to keep that program around:
rpm -e kaffe --nodeps
This removes all instances of kaffe binaries from /usr/bin.
I next create soft links to the /usr/bin directory but blackdown has most of all of it's java commands (ie java, javac, etc) as symbolic links. Some people´s configuration will not allow that many symlinks (That is a softlink pointing to another softlink)
the symlinks point to a "hidden" file called .java_wrapper. So I link this to my /usr/bin directory like so:
ln -s /usr/lib/j2sdk1.3.1/bin/.java_wrapper /usr/bin/java
After doing that, I execute the LImeWireLinux.bin installer (do this as a regular user and not root. I don't know a way to install it system wide as root yet without making a script.):
./LimeWireLinux.bin
Installation works. Program installed, running, and functional. I discovered that I had to install the program as user instead of trying to set it systemwide as root.

Please let me know by leaving a comment or anything if you have any problems or success with my solution. |

After reading your solution to the prob. installing LimeWire I finally got the installer to work:
I then tried running the prog. And got this error message:
[root@xeio] LimeWire]# sh runLime.sh
/usr/java/jre1.3.1_05/bin/i386/native_threads/java: relocation error: /usr/java/ jre1.3.1_05/lib/i386/libpreemptive_close.so: symbol __libc_sendto, version GLIBC _2.0 not defined in file libc.so.6 with link time reference
Have any Sugstns ??
I really appreciate your help
