Okay. I don't have a good solution, but here's what I do to run
LimeWire: Download the "LimeWireOther.zip" file from their official
site <http://www.limewire.com>, extract it to a directory, and run the
"runLime.sh" script inside the "LimeWire" directory.
unzip LimeWireOther.zip
cd LimeWire
sh runLime.sh &
It did work for me without problems (though, I used it for testing and
didn't spend a lot of time with it. I would say I used it for about 15
minutes).
