[Eug-lug] Recompiling in Ubuntu

[Ben Barrett]

If this is what you're referring to (or a different version number), then it
looks to be python.
http://www.linspire.com/lindows_products_details.php?package_name=3Dlos-aol=
&pg=3Dspecs
So the usual "./configure ; make ; sudo make install " variant to build &
install from source will not do it in this case.
Being that it is python, I can't imagine you'd need to recompile the
bytecode (python is similar to java in this regard)...
The shell script in the above-linked package has a shell script at
marlin_build_los-aol-0.0.6/losaol
refers to a document at /usr/share/los/isps/en_US/html/AOL_instructions.html
which might be worth tracking down for that Linspire distro... I didn't find
that on google though :)
I see it is unfortunately unsupported by its publisher at present.

HTH,

    Ben
