I don't use Windows at all, but from what I understand, the Windows binaries that NiLuJe publishes are self-contained. So normally, they should simply work, regardless of your Windows version.

Thanks, will check that out then. For now I will make it DIY instructions for anyone to try out before I pack it up.

For me. I had to take note of..

Quote:
If you want to do it the hard way:

Get libarchive-3.0.4 from http://libarchive.github.com/
Configure it (I do a minimal build for the binary packages: ./configure --enable-static --disable-shared --disable-xattr --disable-acl --with-zlib --without-bz2lib --without-lzmadec --without-iconv --without-lzma --without-nettle --without-expat --without-xml2)
Build it
DON'T install it
Instead, create an includes directory in KindleTool/KindleTool/
Copy archive.h & archive_entry.h from the libarchive-3.0.4/libarchive directory in that includes directory
Create a lib directory in KindleTool/KindleTool/
Copy libarchive.a from the libarchive-3.0.4/.libs directory in that lib directory
(it is there... really...)
And finally, make clean && make in KindleTool
with that it builds great.

Thanks for the tips.

@DuckieTigger: The 'mingw' binaries are native, like silver18 said, you can run them in your favorite native Windows terminal . (One thing of note, though: it'll probably horribly break on anything non-ASCII, and even then, some libarchive output might be mangled [char vs wchar, and all the fun it implies])..

The 'cygwin' binaries, on the other hand, will only run inside a cygwin shell, but should be as 'stable' as any other POSIX build, so, if you encounter a weird error with the native binary, it can't hurt to check if a POSIX-friendly build fails in the same way .

@twobob: IIRC, there's now a separate buildscript (tools/simple-linux-static-build.sh) that handles that automagically, because there's apparently a staggering number of Linux distro out there running out of date software ;D.

@NiLuJe: welcome back

... and to add a bit more to the stress, could you please take a look at this post and the follow-ups? Bottom line is that there seems to be a B01F Paperwhite out there (japanese 3G model), which doesn't seem to be supported yet (though I didn't check as thoroughly as I should have, I'm just assuming that's the reason).

If so, could you please include support for that model, and release the binaries? That'd be very much appreciated... Thanks a ton!

@ixtab: Thanks!

Ah! I've been expecting this one to pop up for quite some time now, so I'm glad to finally have it pinned down!

Japanese 3G PW support has been added to github. No ETA yet on the next binary release, but it probably won't happen until the next couple of weeks.

(@ixtab: If you really need Linux binaries, I can probably rush those tonight).

Yeah, that would really be great! I'm currently looking at the JBPatch stuff - thanks to Amazon, everything got broken again with the new FW, of course , but I'd really like to release a version that works for everyone (as of now).

Spoiler:

ixtab@linux:~/kindle/git/JBPatcher/dist$ ldd `which kindletool`
linux-gate.so.1 => (0xf777f000)
libcrypto.so.0.9.8 => /lib32/i686/cmov/libcrypto.so.0.9.8 (0xf760a000)
libz.so.1 => /usr/lib32/libz.so.1 (0xf75f5000)
libc.so.6 => /lib32/libc.so.6 (0xf7494000)
libdl.so.2 => /lib32/libdl.so.2 (0xf7490000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0xf7780000)


^ That's the one I'm referring to. Thanks again!

Updated the first post with Linux & Windows binaries (for now). OS X users, beware of the filename .

Released 1.5.7, with Canadian 3G PaperWhite support .

(Still no up to date OS X binaries until I get my hands on a Mac, though...).

@NiLuJe, make a heroic attempt, rewrite it in Go. You'll get for free: compress, archive and crypto support in standard library, statically linked binaries, easy and fast cross-compiling for Windows, Linux, OS X.
