Need help compiling Automatic for Duo
I found Automatic and want to use it with Transmission. I've gotten a lot of packages installed on my Duo to compile, but I'm stuck. Here is the error I'm getting: checking for LIBXML... configure...

Just remove the hash marks there for a quick test. After saving this modified automatic.conf it should start without any further complaining. How to set up automatic to use real feeds with real torrents is up to you since I don't use any torrent stuff here.

No feed URL specified in automatic.conf!
Just open /etc/automatic.conf and look for this code:
#feed = { url => ""
# cookies => ""
# }
Change (for testing purposes) to:
feed = { url => "http://whocares.de/feed"
cookies => ""
}
(don't forget to remove the hash marks like I did ;))
Also at the very end of the file there's a set of commented patterns:
#patterns = { "Name.of.Something.I.Want.to.Download.Automatically.*HDTV"
# "Something.else.to.download.*720p"
# "(?!.*720p)Some.Video.But.Not.The.HD.Version"
# }
Just remove the hash marks there for a quick test. After saving this modified automatic.conf it should start without any further complaining. How to set up automatic to use real feeds with real torrents is up to you since I don't use any torrent stuff here.
