I'm still a bit of a freshie on Ubuntu and linux in general, so please bear with me.

I found this package that I would like to implement on my Ubuntu SSH managed server: http://repcached.lab.klab.org/

Is that possible in any way, or does it requres a degree in some to-me-unknown compiling rocket science?

Thanks!

SVN is just source control management, so to install it you will have to get the source code of the software and compile it yourself if a pre-made package does not exist.

You can do this by getting the latest source code from their SVN repository (using svn checkout), or by download and unpacking a .tar.gz.

After that, the most common install procedure is to go to the folder with makefile and do a make and then a make install which will compile it, then install it.

However for this particular package it looks like a fair amount of knowledge is required to get it working, so you might want to familiarise yourself with the *nix environment and memcached first.

  • You forgot the ./configure step.
