Error loading linux version of rockbox utilities

[bradders]

I am trying to load the ubuntu feisty version of the excellent rockbox utilities but am experiencing an error.

The error that keeps coming up is:
"Error: Dependency is not satisfiable:libwxbase2.8-0"

Can anyone help?

Since Ubuntu is based on Debian, these instructions should work.

Enter the following in a terminal session:

echo "deb http://apt.tt-solutions.com/debian/ etch main" >> /etc/apt/sources.list
apt-get update
apt-get install libwxgtk2.8-0

Afterwards, try rbutil again. Keep us posted.

the wxwidgets version of Rockbox Utility is outdated and will soon get replaced by a new, Qt4 based version. Currently there are no binaries around (but I expect that we'll start distributing binaries soonish) so you'd need to build it yourself. In case you want to try this, grab the rbutil module from svn, go to the folder rbutil/rbutilqt and run qmake-qt4 && make.

(Of course you can still use the old version )
