Re: [Passwordsafe-linux] 64bit

[Jim S. <jsh...@gm...>]

Here are some tips for those wanting to run Password Safe on Linux 
distro's other than Debian and Ubuntu.

I used Alien - a Perl script that converts one package manager format to 
another - to convert the Ubuntu DEB packages to RPM's.  This allowed me 
to run both Ubuntu versions on openSUSE 11.3 32 bit.  Version 0.1-1 
worked well and 0.3 worked even better.

But since then, I moved to a new machine running openSUSE 11.3 64 bit. 
Now the RPM's won't build because there are so many missing libraries 
and I can't find them in the repositories.

So for now I'm back to running Password Safe under Wine - which I've 
been doing since version 2.16 back in '06!  It works really well under 
Wine.  In fact, I used to be the Super Maintainer for Password Safe at 
WineHQ..  About the only functions that don't work are the ability to 
open a login page in your browser and auto-login.
