Io Binaries for Ubuntu 8.10 i386 (Intrepid)

January 4th, 2009 Posted in io

I provide experimental binary packages for the desktop and server edition but as the desktop edition has “gdebi” the setup is a bit different as it’s able to install all needed depencies, so it’s rather a download and doubleclick procedure. If you are running the server edition, you have to download a script that installs all needed packages. The binaries though are the same, don’t worry.

If you want to help building packages for Io, you are welcome.

Desktop edition

Download the following packages and just double click them. Ubuntu’s “gdebi” will install the packages.

I did my testing on a freshly installed Ubuntu 8.10 i386 desktop edition where I applied all available updates (around 215mb). Always issue “sudo apt-get update” before you install new packages.

Server edition

If you are running Ubuntu 8.10 server edition, download the following script and execute it with sudo.

wget http://iolanguage.org/packages/ubuntu/8.10/script/i386/install_io.sh -O /tmp/install_io.sh
sudo chmod 744 /tmp/install_io.sh
sudo /tmp/install_io.sh

Wait a bit until it has finished. You can now start io by just typing “io” in your shell.

Missing modules

Modules I have not included are:

  • CFFI
  • ObjcBridge
  • SoundTouch
  • TagDB
  • TagLib

I hope you enjoy Io.

Kind regards,
