How would you host a 0.76 on linux?

I am thinking of renting a Linux VPS for a year but I have never used the OS and I want it to be 0.76 as well. I already have the host chosen I just want to know how I would do it before I buy it.

An easy way is to install Ubuntu then follow these instructions: http://code.google.com/p/pysnip/wiki/SetupUbuntu

But instead of this:

Code: Select all

hg clone https://code.google.com/p/pysnip/
cd pysnip

...do this:

Code: Select all

wget http://aloha.pk/files/aos/pyspades/pyspades076.zip
unzip pyspades076.zip
cd pyspades076

Then continue following the rest of the instructions beginning at:

Code: Select all

sh build.sh

What if I was hosting it on windows?

Follow this simple tutorial: https://code.google.com/p/pysnip/wiki/W ... rceInstall

However, instead of cloning the repository using the command prompt,

Code: Select all

hg clone https://pysnip.googlecode.com/hg/ pysnip

...download it yourself from the link izzy provided and then proceed on with running build_all_mingw.bat (I also believe there is a command line alternative, but I'm appalling with batch).

Trust me, it's better on Linux. Mostly because it's not designed to be a total pain in the ass to code on/for (I'm looking at you, Windows), and it's better to just get the Pysnip source and build it yourself.

This is the recommended fork, by the way:

Code: Select all

git clone https://github.com/Ericson2314/pysnip/ pysnip
cd pysnip
git checkout protocol076

and follow on from there.

There's also my fork which is 0.76 by default but it has that incomplete Iceball tunnel which you might want to turn off:

Code: Select all

git clone https://github.com/iamgreaser/pysnip/ pysnip
cd pysnip
