 AG3 for Ubuntu 8.10, "intrepid ibex"

Overview
The packages available here for an AG3 toolkit installation are made on and for the current Ubuntu testing distribution named Intrepid Ibex. Please advise of any problems to the contact email address below.

Please consult the Issues section below before proceeding with installation!

Installation
Firstly, add UQVislab to your list of download repositories by one of the following methods -
1. manually create a file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/uqvislab.list with the following entries:
deb http://www.vislab.uq.edu.au/debian intrepid/
deb-src http://www.vislab.uq.edu.au/debian intrepid/
or 2. add those lines to your existing /etc/apt/sources.list file
or 3. add those lines in the Third Party Software tab of the Settings->Repositories widget of Synaptic
or 4. run this command in a shell:
sudo wget http://www.vislab.uq.edu.au/debuntu/sources.list.d/intrepid.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/uqvislab.list

*** Please Note *** If upgrading from a previous version, please completely remove it first by running this command in a terminal:
sudo apt-get purge accessgrid3.1
(or whatever the previous version is).

To complete the installation using Synaptic, open the Synaptic Package Manager and reload the package information (use the Reload button, or select Reload Package Information from the Edit menu). Now search for and install the accessgrid3.2 package (it will be found in the AccessGrid section). A number of prerequisite packages should also be automatically installed.

Alternatively, the installation may be completed from the command line, with apt-get, by running the commands:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install accessgrid3.2



Everything should be set to go now - run VenueClient or VenueClient -d from a shell or run it from the "Access Grid 3" entry in the main menu (assuming Gnome desktop).
