Wiithon is an excellent WBFS disk manager for Linux, but it only includes instruction for Debian/Ubuntu (BOO!). I have tested the following method in Fedora 14, and it worked for me 😉
Open up a terminal and enter the following commands:
su -c 'yum install gcc gcc-c++ glibc glibc-devel glibc-headers glibc-devel.i686 ImageMagick pygtk2 glade2 libglade2 python-sexy python-sqlalchemy gnome-icon-theme gettext bzr'
# this installs the prerequisites for Wiithon – most of these will probably be installed already.
bzr branch http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~wii.sceners.linux/wiithon/trunk wiithon1.2
# Install the Wiithon 1.2 source code using Ubuntu “Bazaar” source code management tool.
cd wiithon1.2
su -c 'make'
# Wait for it to finish. It should return a “Compile OK”
su -c 'make install'
# Wait for it to finish. It should return a “Wiithon Install OK”
su -c 'gpasswd -a $USER disk'
# Add current user to the “disk” group. You need to Logout of Fedora then log back in after this.
Now if only I could get it to download cover-art via my bizarre work proxy I’d be happy 😉
UPDATE 05 SEPT 2011:
Just checked under Fedora 15 and this method still works perfectly 😉
