Title: Linux full compiling of PS CB
Post by: confused on January 10, 2005, 08:14:49 pm

The CEL part of the installation is really starting to make me very fustrated no matter which script I use or sequence of commands found in Installation documents and ./configure --help.

Could someone give a complete list of commands needed to retrieve from CVS (well this seems for the same for every script, but only base directory changing) and compile cal3d, CS, CEL and PS as root so that any user can run PS CB (including the psconfig and updater).

Thanx

I\'ve not installed as root before so I am not 100% sure if PlaneShift will pick up the location of CEL correctly.  Normally it uses the CEL variable to find the cel-config to figure out where the libs are.  The \'install\' part on linux needs a bit of work.

I edit the default .bashrc to allow all users to get the export variables CRYSTAL, CEL and CSCONFPATH.

I get a bunch of permision errors when attempting to compile as a normal user, thus using root to compile PS.

Hmm, can you give some of these errors? I might be able to help a bit on those

try checking out as a regular user in some directory accessible to that regular user, like $HOME :)

What if I place the planshift source directories into a general directory which is located in /usr/local that is visible to all users and not just root.

Build as root.

Just have to clean up the system of all previous failed installation attemps.

Thanx for your help so far.
