OpenEMM no longer works on Ubuntu (64-bit)

Post by bk007 »

ia32-libs are required for OpenEMM on a 64 bit machine, but Canonical has decided to end support for the transitional package of ia32-libs (as of v13.10). This significantly reduces the number of configurations OpenEMM can be used on.

What are the OpenEMM plans for compatibility?

The standard platform we use for development and production is RedHat, i.e. we will make sure that OpenEMM runs without 32 bit libraries at the latest when RedHat makes the switch.

Alternatively, you can compile the C files for your platform yourself. Download the source tarball of OpenEMM and execute its build script as user root to create your own customized binary tarball:

Code: Select all

ant -f openemm_build.xml build
