High,
now I'm trying to build R13.2 on Slackware 14.1, trying to follow the
instructions found at
https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/How_to_Build_TDE_Core_Modules
This doc leaves several questions open:
1. It doesn't say which release this is about. In the "Suggested
Build Order" section it talks about tqt3, so I guess it's about R14
already, though R14 isn't (actually) released yet. And what if any-
one is forced (or just likes) to install R13.2 or even older release
anyway?
It was ported from the old wiki, so unless someone's changed it
recently, it's for 13.X.
2. It isn't clear about the build tool to use for
the different
packages. When talking about the autoconf -> cmake migration, there
should be some details of which package in which release is to be
done with which build tool, or each package should have a quick note
about this in the README or whatever...
"List of Packages Building with cmake" says " Build everything not in the
list above with autotools." autoconf is part of autotools.
If you think that's unclear, can you suggest a better way to word it?
(That's a sincere question, not an attempt to needle you. The more people
understand the wiki, the more of them will have a good experience with
Trinity.)
No idea if I should attach the error output from a
cmake approach.
Do, please, since that's the expected build system for tqtinterface.
