Running on RaspberryPi

I thought yEnc was included as a dependency, I already have python-yEnc package. Or is it a different version I need?

No, you are correct. Manual compiling of such dependencies is not necessary on Debian, as everything should be available in packaged form (the python-yenc package in this specific case). The fact that it's running on raspi makes no difference.

The optimized C version is not installed by default, this is a diffrent version which is faster than python-yEnc.

When you start sabnzbd, you can check the log for this line to make sure you are running the better version:

Are you absolutely sure? I did some quick benchmarking and it seemed the built-in version was much slower.

Short version of how I did it:
Use this to add unofficial repositories: http://blog.anantshri.info/howto-add-ppa-in-debian/
then use this to add the sabnzbd repo: http://wiki.sabnzbd.org/install-ubuntu-repo

I'm not really quite sure of the implications of adding additional repositories, and it is an older version of SAB.. But it has been working really well for me (now with sickbeard), so I'm happy, and happy with my purchase

Cool, that works.

I'm now running SABnzbd 0.7.0 on my Raspi with Debian (Linux raspberrypi 3.1.9+ #90 Wed Apr 18 18:23:05 BST 2012 armv6l GNU/Linux)

FWIW /etc/apt/sources.list now contains the following line:

Code: Select all

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/jcfp/ppa/ubuntu lucid main

So Debian Squeeze is equivalent to Ubuntu Lucid?

I'm such a unix noob that I'm kind of embarassed to ask this. So with that said, when I do the above and update, I error out with:

W: Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/jcfp/ppa/ubunt ... id/Release Unable to find expected entry 'main/binary-armhf/Packages' in Release file (Wrong sources.list entry or malformed file)

I went on the launchpad site and did find that repository but beyond that I'm not sure what to do next. Could one of you guys give me a pointer?

thanks

If you're a *x noob, why not just "sudo apt-get install sabnzbdplus" ... and you're fine.

actually I've got it all running (almost) smoothly, but I've spent the last 5 hours reading different posts and starting again. (sab, SB, CP)
I wanted the latest version, otherwise I could have just kept the 0.6.x that came easily.
In the end it was another post of yours and jcfp's that did the trick, thanks
