Linux manual installation

Manual installation is for advanced users.

You can find installation .deb and .rpm packages at Burster Download page.



Burster 1.5.4 Linux 64bit  &  Burster 1.5.5

tar.gz package for manual installation:
burster_1.5.5-2_i386.tar.gz (21-06-2012)
burster_1.5.5-2_amd64.tar.gz (01-05-2012)
burster_1.5.5-1_amd64.tar.gz (19-04-2012)
burster_1.5.4-1_amd64.tar.gz (25-03-2012)

This release was tested on Ubuntu 11.04, Ubuntu 11.10, Linux Mint 11 and Linux Mint 12. This system uses /usr/lib as library directory. In some 64bits distribution there is only lib64 directory so use   /usr/lib64   everywhere below instead of   /usr/lib

Put   bursterplayer24   and   blenderplayer26   into   /usr/bin

Library   libburster.so   should be visible to your browser, so put this file into   /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins

On 64bit systems put   libbursterdecode64.so   into   /usr/lib/  On 32bit systems put   libbursterdecode.so   into   /usr/lib/

Put python scripts folders   python26   and   python32   into   /usr/lib/burster

Execute this command line:   ldconfig -n /usr/lib

If you like, put license files into   /usr/share

Make sure you have installed libraries:  libjpeg62, libpng12-0

Older 32bit systems may require libstdc++6 in version 4.6.1 or above.

Congratulations for this new step!
And thank you! Burster looks awesome!

Quoting djevil:
I tried to install on Ubuntu 10.04,
needed Python 3.2, installed Python from src, but libpython cannot be installed, because Python3.2 cannot be found (it finds Python2.6 by default), though it is in PATH and can be evoked thru commandline

Did anyone got burster installed on Ubuntu10.04?


Installing libpython3.2 with apt-get should work. There will be Burster 1.5.2 soon with statically compiled python.

Hello, I tried to install but cannot find libjbig (only for Windows) and libjpeg,so.8, I have got libjpeg.so.62.
And libpng, is it libpng12 from libpng-dev packet?

My system is Ubuntu 10.04

greets Dave


You should install libjpeg8, libpng12, libpython2.7 and libpython3.2 (using sinaptic package menager).

Deb package with dependencies in progress.

Will be soon. Just after we prepare bugfree 64-bit it will be compiled into 32 bit.

Quoting Pawel:
unfortunately still doesn't work on Ubuntu 11.04 (64bit)
(firefox / chrome / opera)
copied all the files, checked the libraries, restarted browser, restarted system...


Hello Pawel, please run firefox from console. I am sure firefox will complain on some missing libraries.

Please send me output from console at p.kroliszewski (at) gmail.com
