CEL installation

[confused]

I having a major problem compiling PS as a result of CEL not installing correctly.

Downloaded the latest cvs copy of CEL

Here is the commands sequence to compile CEL:
./configure --enable-new-renderer (no errors)
jam (no errors, and babout half the targets done)
celtst -relight (with a man model that animates as you move, also no visible defects could be seen)
./cel-conf --prefix (returns /usr/local)

Checked installation location (/usr/local) and nothing appears in the obvious places /usr/local/bin/, /usr/local/include/, /usr/local/lib/ and /usr/local/share/.

jam does not seem to do any installation of files, nor does ./configure create any makefiles for installing CEL file to either the default (/usr/local) or --prefix=? locations, as is done with CS.

How does one overcome the installation problem.

You shouldn\'t install cel and CS. Use CRYSTAL, CSCONFPATH and CEL environnement variable instead. (CRYSTAL should point to the CS source dir, CEL/CSCONFPATH to the cel one)

[confused]

So basicly for CS, CRYSTAL is set to the installation /usr/local/, in which PS and CEL locates the libs in /usr/local/lib/, binaries in /usr/local/bin/, and config & data located in /usr/local/share/crystalspace/

For CEL the prefix and default prefix is not used at all, thus CEL and CSCONFPATH must be set as /root/planshift-sources/cel/, but this forces one to play as root, which is not a good thing to do.

I prefer to have the files installed in standard locations, thus if I copy the binaries from source to the standard location it should work.

granted it kinda sucks that cel is so raw that it doesn\'t install...

but then again, can\'t you compile the sources somewhere else, e.g. in /opt?
after all what\'s the point of compiling the sources as root?

[confused]

I decided I just going to look at CS installation and copy the CEL build files to similar locations as done with CS.
