if you are interested in another tester for Slackware
14.0, and
you
can point me towards some up-to-date instructions on how to
acquire
and compile R14.0, I'd be happy to give it a try and report on any
issues I find.
I no longer have my web site running, where originally I had that
documentation and build scripts. If you are interested then contact
me directly off list. I don't want to offer my build scripts
publicly. My build scripts are complex because I am one of the main
testers for Trinity. I need flexibility with how I compile and
test. That said, I would enjoy seeing somebody reduce the build
scripts to a point that theoretically could become slackbuilds.org
compatible. :-)
As a side note, would be nice if there was somebody using 13.1 or
13.37 who could compile Trinity with HAL support to ensure that
part of Trinity still functions as expected. I've gone full 14.0
here on all systems because that reduces my own time and overhead.
Probably likewise for you. That said, if there were simpler build
scripts (like the KDE3 scripts in Slackware 12.2) and a basic wiki
(we could add such a page to the Trinity wiki), then others running
13.1 or 13.37 could test and enjoy Trinity too. :-)
There are other Slackers who want to run Trinity (browse the LQ
forum), but there are no wiki pages or build scripts to make that
more accessible for Slackers. :-( Possibly if we work together we
could make that happen?
