Greetings, Having gotten fed up of compiling and installing Plan 9 from User Space on all of my machines, I have packaged p9p for Ubuntu Linux and am hosting it on my package repository Ubuntu NLP [http://cl.naist.jp/~eric-n/ubuntu-nlp].
The packages are still very basic; I am literally building p9p with INSTALL -b, copying the results into a package, and calling INSTALL -c when the package is installed on the user's machine, but if you would like to give them a try, do the following: 1) Add Ubuntu NLP to your /etc/apt/sources.list file: deb http://cl.naist.jp/~eric-n/ubuntu-nlp <distro> plan9 deb-src http://cl.naist.jp/~eric-n/ubuntu-nlp <distro> plan9 where <distro> is one of the following: dapper, feisty, gutsy, hardy, intrepid (There seem to be some issues with the edgy repository that is preventing me from supporting it) 2) Add my public key to your keyring for package verication: wget http://cl.naist.jp/~eric-n/ubuntu-nlp/8ABD1965.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add - 3) Refresh the apt sources: sudo apt-get update 4) Install plan9ports: sudo apt-get install plan9ports 5) Add $PLAN9 to your environment: PLAN9=/usr/share/plan9 export PLAN9 PATH=$PATH:$PLAN9/bin export PATH If you have any questions or comments, let me know. --underspecified
