RetroShare Portable 0.5.4 with VOIP plugin

#1 Post by markreaves »

Tested on: Puppy Precise
Download: https://www.dropbox.com/s/5omd8y7bmi50d ... hare0.5.4d
MD5: e03126aca5c7038f4447729629ab11fb

Instructions:
Download then do:
chmod u+x RetroShare
./RetroShare

Used PortableLinuxApps to make portable.
http://portablelinuxapps.org/

If you wish for the settings to be stored in a portable manner, use the following:

* Download above file.
* Place it in a folder somewhere and make it executable
* Inside same folder create a new file called "launcher"
* Inside launcher file add the bash script that is in quotes below.
* Save and make executable
* Create a folder named "config"
* Launch it by doing: ./launcher appname
#!/bin/bash

PWD= `pwd`

chmod u+x "$1"
mkdir -p "$PWD/config/$1"
export HOME="$PWD/config/$1"
./$1
NOTES: This has not been FULLY tested to work yet as I have no network of friends formed yet. I have tested it to load and generate a new profile. If you want to use a stronger key for your profile (say 4096bit) then use GPG to generate it and use it. I forget right off how to use such but I know it can be done.

Wow, that's fast! :) I am going to test it after work today!

I almost can't wait for the first puppy linux channel to be opened on RS

Until then, for people who like visual instructions, here are a couple of good RS tutorials:

plus, there is an unofficial android version which ready for testing for people who want to experiment in connecting their phone with their computer:

missing lib

#3 Post by Dromeno »

OK, I told ya I could not wait.... In Lucid 528005 I get this error:

sh-4.1# RetroShare
RetroShare: /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.15' not found (required by RetroShare)
RetroShare: /lib/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.15' not found (required by RetroShare)
RetroShare: /lib/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.15' not found (required by ./lib/libQtGui.so.4)
RetroShare: /lib/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.15' not found (required by ./lib/libQtCore.so.4)
sh-4.1#

Is it possible to include it in the program?

If I'm not mistaken a new "portable" would have to be made for Lucid. Since I do not have Lucid and no room to play with it I may have to attempt a new package "blind" lol. Over the next couple of days I will see what I can come up with.
