I had issues installing Bfilter v1.1.4 under CentOS5.2 and Fedora 8, due to the use of AutoPackage. I ended up having to work around it, but that turns out to be pretty easy. The key is that the .package file contains a tar.lzma file. If you have everything else installed - which you probably do in a standardish desktop GUI environment - then you can just use this rather than use all of the autopackage stuff, which broke for me.
will get you the info we need. To get the file out use
After this you'll need to install lzma packages - centos does not have any standard repos with lzma but they are available through a public repo http://pj.freefaculty.org/Centos/. Then just uncompress the file using
(and yes, you need to direct input into lzma and redirect the output to a new file). Then you can untar it and start using it. Hope this helps, sorry its not better formatted but this TinyMCE/FCKeditor window (whichever) isn't letter me enter new line characters, which is pretty lame. Colin.
Code:
% egrep --text '(compression|data_size)=' bfilter-gui-1.1.4.x86.packageCode:
tail --bytes=1113910 bfilter-gui-1.1.4.x86.package > bfilter.tar.lzmaCode:
lzma < bfilter.tar.lzma > bfilter.tar
