Getting Gnash

The Gnash team builds binary packages for a number of architectures, primary to make it easier for people to stay uptodate with Gnash between releases. You can get to the entire list via these links. Please remember these are often bleeding edge, but most of the time should be stable. Most problems can will likely be the following update.

Because these are experimental packages, there may be issues with dependencies, or other problems. The prefered place to get releases is from your regular distribution channel. These packages are built primarily to allow people to test snapshots of Gnash between official releases.

These packages are built and signed by me (--[[User:Rob|Rob]] 13:47, 11 March 2010 (MST)), so here's how to get my GPG key to verify the packages till I figure out how to make this automated.

Debian users can set their systems up to use our deb repository of Gnash snapshots. Add one of these to your sources.list file, and then run "apt-get update".

For Debian:

deb http://www.getgnash.org/debs/debian lenny main
deb http://www.getgnash.org/debs/debian sid main
deb http://www.getgnash.org/debs/debian squeeze main

For gNewSense:

deb http://www.getgnash.org/debs/gnewsense metad main

For Ubuntu:

deb http://www.getgnash.org/debs/ubuntu maverick main
deb http://www.getgnash.org/debs/ubuntu lucid main
deb http://www.getgnash.org/debs/ubuntu karmic main

Fedora

Fedora users can set their systems up to use our yum repository of Gnash snapshots. Create a gnash.repo file, put this following text as the contents, and the copy the file to /etc/yum.repos.d/.

[gnash-snapshot]
name=Gnash Snapshot for Fedora $releasever
baseurl=http://getgnash.org/yum/fedora/$releasever/updates/$basearch/
enabled=1
#gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=http://getgnash.org/gnashdev.key

OLPC - X0

The One Laptop Per Child X0 machines are currently either geode based (the older ones), or VIA c7 based (the new beta ones), both of which are x86 based. However the OLPC distribution is based on Fedora 11, so the above works on the X0 as well. Adding our repository is the best way to keep flash working on your X0.
