Netatalk on Intrepid once again

The deb file I used to use isnt working. But this script does work for compiling netatalk with SSL support so it actually works:

mkdir -p ~/src/netatalk
cd ~/src/netatalk
sudo apt-get install devscripts cracklib2-dev dpkg-dev libssl-dev build-essential
sudo apt-get build-dep netatalk
apt-get source netatalk
cd netatalk-2.0.3
DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=ssl dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc
sudo debi

echo “netatalk hold” | sudo dpkg –set-selections

$ sudo ln -s /lib/libgcc_s.so.1 /usr/lib/vmware/lib/
