Is it possible to run a tribler client on a debian machine?
Is there a debian UI or command line interface?
Yes, I do all my development on a Debian machine, the only issues is that WX 2.8 support has been dropped from Debian. You will have to obtain these dependencies either from oldstable or experimental. The plan is to migrate to WX 3 after Tribler 6.5 is released.
Once you have wx installed, the rest of dependencies are available from the standard Debian repos, just download the .deb from github or tribler.org and install it.
Let me know if you need more help.
About the command line interface: There’s only a couple of command line services that can be executed without the GUI frontend, an RSS to Tribler channel publisher and a tunnel helper instance.
It would be really nice to be able to run Tribler completely headless, but right now it’s not possible.
Hello.
I have tried to install package “tribler”, downloaded from
https://github.com/Tribler/tribler/releases/download/v6.4.3/tribler_6.4.3_all.deb
Installation was done on Debian 8 (Jessie).
Before that package I have installed these packages:
libav-tools
libjs-excanvas
libjs-mootools
python-apsw
python-cherrypy3
python-crypto
python-gmpy
python-libtorrent
python-m2crypto
python-netifaces
python-pyasn1
python-requests
python-twisted
python-wxgtk2.8 // version “2.8.12.1-12” for “wheezy (oldstable)” found at
https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=python-wxgtk2.8&searchon=names&suite=all§ion=all
When I start tribler from GUI, nothing happens.
When I run “tribler” command from terminal it says “Starting Tribler…” and closes.
I have also tried the package (version “6.4.3+git20150522.3557ba92-1”) from Debian’s repository:
https://packages.debian.org/sid/tribler
It required me to install “python-leveldb”, but it also does not work 
What should I do next?
Thanks.
Could you have a look at /tmp/$USER-tribler-XXXXXXXX.log and see if there’s anything useful there?
