Installing CFAN on Ubuntu 14.04

  • Install Mono.

First, follow the instructions on the Mono-Project Getting Started install page to add the mono-Project repository (the version of Mono on the Ubuntu repositories might be out of date and will not run CFAN properly). Then,

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install mono-complete
  • Import certificates (as same user you'll run CFAN with)
mozroots --import --ask-remove
  • Download libcurl4-openssl-dev
sudo apt-get install libcurl4-openssl-dev
mono cfan.exe

Option 2 (requires binutils setup):

# Make cfan.exe executable (you only need to do this once)
chmod 755 cfan.exe
# Start cfan
./cfan.exe

Notes:

  • On some systems CFAN might present an error/warning about not being able to set x locale modifiers. This can be fixed by running LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 mono cfan.exe
