Hello,
I managed to build Workrave for Linux on Ubuntu after getting some help from Daniel Nylander. I still haven't been able to build Workrave for Windows though. I am primarily a Windows user and I would like to customize Workrave a little bit for my use. I followed the instructions in the build/README file and managed to get through all steps in the build/build-cross.sh script after changing version on some packages. I got stuck in the build/build-packages.sh script. First I ran into a problem of having a too late version of texinfo that was detected as a very old version that I managed to workaround by hacking some files and downloading later versions of some libraries. But I never managed to run build-packages.sh without compiler/linker errors. If I remember correctly it was glibmm that failed to build. Do you know a linux distrubution/version where cross-compiling of Workrave for Windows works more or less out of the box?

Hi,

Is > branch_v1_9 mainly just a snapshot of the files at the time of 1.9.0? branch_v1_9 is for all 1.9.x development. i.e. the "stable" releases. trunk contains my attempt to rewrite the entire networking support in Workrave (originally started in the networking_rewrite branch). I guess this will become 1.10 in 6 - 12 months.

I think for now I will therefore be interested in getting branch_v1_9 to build and as a target for patches. -- Joe ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Workrave-user mailing list Workrave-user@... https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/workrave-user |
