Howto Install “lame” mp3 ripper on Debian Linux using apt-get

Lunes, 18 de Enero de 2010

Lame wont come with your Debian Distro because some GPL licencing issues, however it is possible to get it to install manually by compiling it or with a bit of fiddling to add lame with APT-GET since i dont feel comfortable compiling stuff I opted for the later method and here is how step by step. I am assuming you have root access and basic console knowledge. if you find problems with this Tutorial post a comment and i will do my best to help you.

First you need to add the source so apt-get knows where to look.

To do so: add in your: “/etc/apt/sources.list”

nano /etc/apt/sources.list
deb http://www.debian-multimedia.org testing main

Then you need to tell apt-get to reload the list:

apt-get update

This will return an error and a key that looks like this (don’t panic):

GPG error: ftp://www.debian-multimedia.org Somthing Release:
The following signatures couldn’t be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 07DC563D1F41B907

Just run from the console:

gpg --keyserver pgpkeys.mit.edu --recv-key 07DC563D1F41B907

gpg -a --export 07DC563D1F41B907 | apt-key add -

This will get rid of the NO_PUBKEY error; now you need to run again:

apt-get update

Then apt-get will be happily updated and you are ready to install your lame; run this:


apt-get install lame

apt-get install libmp3lame0 libmp3lame-dev

And voila now lame is installed in your system.
