Here are some notes on using the 0.8.x git version on Ubuntu.

EDIT: first install a regular sabnzbd via the Ubuntu Software Center. It will take care of activating Multiverse and installing the needed other programs (unrar etc)

First: installation of the git version:

Code: Select all

mkdir git-sab
cd git-sab
git clone https://github.com/sabnzbd/sabnzbd.git sabnzbd
cd sabnzbd
git checkout --track origin/develop

Updates later on, in the sabnzbd directory:

Code: Select all

git pull

Show which branch you're using:

Code: Select all

sander@appelboor:~/git-sab/sabnzbd$ git branch
* develop
  master
sander@appelboor:~/git-sab/sabnzbd$

SAB 0.8.x can handle 7zip files. However, if SAB says:

Code: Select all

2013-04-27 17:31:49,335::WARNING::[SABnzbd:516] 7za binary... NOT found!

then install "p7zip-full". After that, SAB should say:

Code: Select all

2013-04-27 17:40:07,134::INFO::[SABnzbd:514] 7za binary... found (/usr/bin/7za)

FWIW:

Code: Select all

sander@hapee:~/git-sab/sabnzbd$ dpkg -S  /usr/bin/7za
p7zip-full: /usr/bin/7za
sander@hapee:~/git-sab/sabnzbd$

SAB 0.8.x will announce itself via bonjour.

If SAB says

Code: Select all

2013-04-27 17:33:37,664::INFO::[zconfig:65] No Bonjour/ZeroConfig support installed

then you have to install:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install libavahi-compat-libdnssd1

After that, SAB will say

Code: Select all

2013-04-27 17:44:27,850::DEBUG::[zconfig:98] Try to publish in Bonjour as "hapee" (0.0.0.0:8080)

and will announce itself via bonjour/zeroconf/avahi
