Title: TI-84 ROM image problem
Post by: juha.kivekas on April 03, 2013, 03:33:40 am
Because getting a rom image seemed hard, i have been test-running my programs on the actual calculator (with no big problems so far).
Now, i'd like to do some debugging. My problem flows kind of like a depth first search:
get debugger->get emulator->get wabbitemu->get ROM-image->get TiLP->get all dependencies->install TiLP->[problem HERE]

Seems like i'm missing package "libarchive".

I installed TiLP according to  what was told here:http://ourl.ca/12289 (http://ourl.ca/12289)

I dont know what "libarchive" is, but i tried to apt-get and it said:

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package libarchive

Im running ubuntu 12.04

You need libarchive-dev :)
Are you using http://lpg.ticalc.org/prj_tilp/download/install_tilp.sh ? Modern versions list the packages one needs to install (build dependencies).

Oh, that was a simple fix, it installed now :)
i was in fact using install_tilp.sh, but i wasn't playing enough attention.

It's good that you have compiled and installed TiLP, but it is in the apt repositories.

True, but the packages in the Debian/Ubuntu repositories for most versions are severely outdated (read: a version before I became the maintainer in June 2009). Nobody should use those, until they're upgraded to something sane :)

It's recommended to build TiLP. How can one update the repos by the way

By maintaining the packages. alberthro has become their maintainer on the Debian side, and he has already started updating them (and sending me patches and complaints from the packaging tools so that I could fix the code / distribution), but package lists have been frozen for a while, until the next release of Debian is released (which should occur soon) :)

So a reasonably recent version of TiLP should soon be in the Ubuntu/Debian repositories? Cool! Do you know if there'll be support for any other distros?

Ah, i just found this thread: http://ourl.ca/18034 It seems TilEm2 should also soon be available from the repositories :D

EDIT: It appears there was also work being done to get TiLP into the Fedora repositories, i dunno if it's still being worked on or not:

Hopefully, but that will require Debian 7.0 to be released first, and then alberthro will be able to re-upload the packages for review and sponsorship.

At least Arch and OpenSUSE already have libti*/gfm/tilp packages. There are unofficial packages for Fedora ( http://www.cemetech.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=6610 ), and now that the single biggest roadblock was cleared (usage of an embedded fork of minizip), it should be easier to make them official.

Alongside libti*/gfm/tilp, yup, hopefully :)
