          It's fairly easy to install Democracy Player and it's really turning out to be a kick in the pants to watch some of the stuff available to watch for free.  This following was simply harvested from the forums and assembled here for your pleasure.  The only minor difficulty with installation was the use of an ancient libboost-python version thus the --force-all & symlink.  
 
Code: 
wget http://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/pculture.org/democracy/linux/debian/Democracy-0.8.2-i386.deb
 
apt-get install libboost-python1.33.1
 
dpkg -i --force-all Democracy-0.8.2-i386.deb
 
ln -s /usr/lib/libboost_python-gcc-mt-1_33_1.so.1.33.1 /usr/lib/libboost_python-gcc-mt-1_33.so.1.33.0
 
 
 
 
If you get some unresolved dependencies do:
 
Code: 
apt-get -f install
 
dpkg -i --force-all Democracy-0.8.2-i386.deb
 
 
 
Don't worry about this message:
 
Code: 
dpkg: democracyplayer: dependency problems, but configuring anyway as you request:
 
 democracyplayer depends on libboost-python1.33.0 (>= 1.33.0-1); however:
 
  Package libboost-python1.33.0 is not installed.
 
 
 
 
To launch simply type:
 
Code: 
democracyplayer
 
 
 
This really is something different & interesting. |

          DOH! I should have known the KDE users would not have gconf installed!  Note the error:
 
Code: 
No module named gconf 
 
 
 
Try:
 
Code: 
apt-get install gconf2
 
 
At any rate the democracyplayer is still a bit buggy and I have not resolved how to keep it installed through an upgrade.  Just the same it was fun to try out. |

          Hi,
 
 
I installed python2.4-gnome2 and  python-gnome2 (together with all dependencies). One of both did it, I think rather the first one.
 
Give it a try...

Wow that is a lot of packages just to install one.
 
 
The python-gnome2 pulled in like 50 packages including things like the mozilla browser and a lot of gnome junk.
 
 
The apt-get -f install removed democracyplayer as well. Oh well off to try to reinstall it. Looks interesting. Well no joy , installed both the python packages above with their ton of dependecies plus gconf2 and I still get the following error:

So what am I missing? Looks like the app itself is having issues. |

          hm..... in my case the python-gnome2 would install only some few extra packages, it seems that you have on older version of Kanotix. than I. I have the easter-version RC4
 
Do you have an actual version of python2.4-gtk2? I am quite sure that the problem is some python issue.
 
 
BTW: I also have to "apt-get -f install" before I add anything and to reinstall democracyplayer again at the end... I do not know how to get rid of this.

          I am running the easter RC4 with most of the updates.
 
 
Even after installing all the packages suggested and using apt-get -f install democracyplayer shows as broken in Synaptic.
 
 
Oh well no biggie, I installed it in winxp and wasnt too impressed. I was hoping it was more along the  lines of streaming tv and not stuff I had to download. |
