Hi, maybe this will only be undertood by the one that made the Linux install script (planeshift_CBV0.3.006.sh).
I have a quite slow machine (P2 333 128MbRAM) runing excelently a SlackWare 10 (updated at the minute) and I\'m running as root, to stablish the environment.
I will speak as a developer since I could just say \"the installation gave this error\", but I\'m not into the development of planeShift so I might be wrong about details.
Well, compilation of CS gave me an error and I found out that was \"Jam\" not being well distributed so I dl\'ed Jam and conpiled myself in about 30segs. I put jam binary on /usr/local/bin so is accesible to the \"automatic compilation\" process.
Cal3d compiled fine. CS compiled fine, cel compiled fine, but planeShift didn\'t. Here is where the CRYSTAL environment variable comes to scene.
The installation gave me an annonying error like \"code_update.sh not found\". Went to the planeShift compilation dir ($INSTALLDIR/planeshift) and found out thet ./compile went wrong displaying \"cannot find CRYSTAL environment variable\". I dunno if it\'s a distro policy or a bug but even if you make the export CRYSTAL just before the ./compile, this script doesn\'t recieve the variable. Don\'t even bother about --with-cs-path (I think it\'s like that), I ve tried.
Well all this is only if I dl\'ed from CVS (Yes on the installer question about updating), couse if not, the ./configure don\'t even is in $INSTALLDIR/planeshift, neither any of the binaries or Makefile or Jamfile.
I\'ve kinda gave up at the point I have to d\'load all from CVS and compile manually, and make sure jam is compilling the client.
GG all (??)
