[gentoo-user] Limewire

[Bruno Gola]

   Hello again guys ;)

I was trying to merge that p2p software called Limewire, when ive done:
emerge limewire it works, but, when i try:
$ limewire
I get this error:

bruno@br ~ $ limewire
/usr/bin/limewire: line 4: java: command not found

Does anyone knows what should I do correctly or just tell me a better
p2p software (i use pysoulseek and amule)?

Thanks
Bruno Gola

do you have java, don't you? (google for "gentoo java wiki" and "gentoo 
java-config")

when you can type in a terminal "jav..." and press tab and you get:
java javac javaws... etc, limewire must work

Limewire should have pulled in a jre as a dependency, unless you
installed it with the --nodeps option. 

>From the fact that you have java-config but NOT javac or java, I am
willing to bet that you have a problem with your paths. So, my guess
is that you tried to run limewire immediately after emerging it? If
that is the case, what happened is the following:

emerge limewire pulls in a JRE as a dependency, most likely
blackdown, which installs to /opt/blackdown-jre...

it also adds a rule in /etc/env.d to add /opt/blackdown-jre.../bin to
the search path. And emerge then calls env-update. 

The problem is that the shell you did the emerge in, and any shell
you opened before the emerge, read the old /etc/profile when they
loaded, and hence does not no about the new paths to search for the
java runtimes. 

What you should do is run
  source /etc/profile
in the shell you are trying to run Limewire
Or quit your current shell and start a new one and run limewire from
that.

Sounds to me like you didnt have java installed before you installed
Limewire.  Just log out of the shell, and start a new one and the new
shell will have java in it's path.

I've had good success with gtk-gnutella.

# eix gtk-gnutella
* net-p2p/gtk-gnutella 
     Available versions:  0.93.3 0.94 ~0.95 ~0.95-r1 ~0.95.3 
     Installed:           0.95.3
     Homepage:            http://gtk-gnutella.sourceforge.net/
     Description:         A GTK+ Gnutella client


I tried limewire several years ago, and at the time is was a known
spyware/adware p.o.s.  It may have mended it's ways since. 

hth,

cooper.
