How to install Eagle 5 on Debian?

Former Member
Former Member over 14 years ago

How should i install Eagle 5 (system wide if possible) on Debian?

I tried this way:

 

_________________________________________________

 

  1. wget ftp://ftp.cadsoft.de/eagle/program/5.11/eagle-lin-5.11.0.run

  2. checkinstall eagle-lin-5.11.0.run

 

checkinstall 1.6.2, Copyright 2009 Felipe Eduardo Sanchez Diaz Duran

           This software is released under the GNU GPL.

 

 

The package documentation directory ./doc-pak does not exist.

Should I create a default set of package docs?  :

 

Preparing package documentation...OK

 

      • No known documentation files were found. The new package

      • won't include a documentation directory.

 

*****************************************

        • Debian package creation selected ***

*****************************************

 

.

.

.

.

 

Installing with eagle-lin-5.11.0.run...

 

========================= Installation results ===========================

/var/tmp/tmp.dCDqw6xmHT/installscript.sh: 4: eagle-lin-5.11.0.run: not found

 

        • Installation failed. Aborting package creation.

 

Cleaning up...OK

 

Bye.

 

_________________________________________________

 

End of my screenlog

 

Any hints? On debian its important to build a .deb first. Else it

could mess up my system and i can never uninstall eagle again.

 

So the example with sh on the website is quite dangerous.

 

Any hints for debian?

Kind regards,
