We currently migrate to MediaWiki from our old installation, but not all content has been migrated yet. Take a look at the Wiki Team page for instructions how to help or browse through our new wiki at wiki.linux-vserver.org to find the information already migrated.

To get a recent version of the util-vserver package under sarge, follow these instructions as root:

Get build dependencies first. This way you avoid getting sid-packages to your sarge.

apt-get build-dep dietlibc-dev
apt-get install debhelper m4 python-dev e2fslibs-dev gawk autotools-dev net-tools vla iptables wget procps modutils module-init-tools autoconf

Edit /etc/apt/sources.list and insert this line (for now. you can remove it after the procedure...):

deb-src http://ftp2.de.debian.org/debian/ sid main

Then compile the packages.

# apt-get update
# cd /somewhere/where/the/debs/should/go/
# apt-get build-dep dietlibc-dev
# YOU-SHOULD_NOT_NEED_TO apt-get -b source dietlibc-dev
# dpkg -i dietlibc_0.29-4_i386.deb dietlibc-dev_0.29-4_i386.deb
# YOU-SHOULD_NOT_NEED_TO apt-get build-dep libbeecrypt6-dev
# apt-get -b source libbeecrypt6-dev
# dpkg -i libbeecrypt6_4.1.2-2_i386.deb libbeecrypt6-dev_4.1.2-2_i386.deb

## this should already be resolved:
# YOU-SHOULD_NOT_NEED_TO apt-get build-dep util-vserver
# apt-get -b source util-vserver
# dpkg -i util-vserver_0.30.208-1_i386.deb
