Amule does not work with libupnp in (K)ubuntu 8.04

[Flink Del Dinky]

Binary package hint: amule

Runnning Kubuntu AMD64

$ apt-cache policy amule

$ lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 8.04.1
Release: 8.04

amule expects a version of libupnp that is not present.

When I run amule and look at the 'aMule Log' tab I see the following upnp error:
2008-06-26 02:04:57: ExternalConn.cpp(169): External connections disabled in config file
2008-06-26 02:04:57: MuleUDPSocket.cpp(78): Created Server UDP-Socket at port 4665

2008-06-26 02:05:00: UPnP.cpp(1134): Universal Plug and Play: UPnP Error: CUPnPControlPoint::AddPortMapping: Wan Service not detected.

When I run:
$ locate libupnp.so
/usr/lib/libupnp.so.2
/usr/lib/libupnp.so.2.0.3

So I get a lowid. Also even if I forward ports in my routers firewall I still get a lowid. Ktorrents upnp works fine. Looks like amule is looking for libupnp.so.3 which doesn't seem to exist in AMD64 8.04 (but maybe in other architectures?).

This is not a error

For now there are two versions of linupnp: libupnp2 and libupnp 3. Hardy
only has libupnp but aMule is multi-plataform and multi-operative-system and
for this check all versions of libupnp.

This say that libupnp2 works:

*2008-06-26 02:04:57: UPnP.cpp(91): Universal Plug and Play: Successfully
opened libixml.so.2.
2008-06-26 02:04:57: UPnP.cpp(91): Universal Plug and Play: Successfully
opened libupnp.so.2.*

Respect of lowid is a common problem in aMule and also in eMule, but I
suggest you wait some days for aMule 2.2.1 (or aMule 2.2.2...) stable
release and try again.

My router is a ZyXel Prestige 660H

Hi Flink Del Dinky, I have forwarded your problem to the aMule forum. The answer of one of aMule developers was:

"The WAN service was not detected, maybe your router is using a different service string."
