Installing CKAN on Solus
Similarly to other Linux distros:
- Download the most recent CKAN.exe
- Install the needed packages via
sudo eopkg install curl-devel curl-32bit-devel libgdiplus-devel openssl-devel mono mono-devel
- Use the legacy Mono TLS Provider (I'm not developer, so I vaguely understand this, but it seems that CKAN will not download mods or will start and stop at 1% unless you run this command) (source: https://dev.getsol.us/T3881
export MONO_TLS_PROVIDER=legacy
Not sure if this step is still required after further troubleshooting fixes, but alas, its still here for now...
- As mentioned in the SSL certificate errors wiki page, run:
sudo cert-sync /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt
- Run ckan.exe with mono
mono ckan.exe
This is what worked for a newly installed version of Solus
Good luck all!
