I changed the script here is what I changed.

# Perform the magick
for step in `echo \"$BuildSteps\" | xargs`; do
   echo \"Performing step $step...\"
   $step

to this

# Perform the magick
for step in `echo \"$BuildSteps\" | xargs`; do
  echo \"Performing step $step...\"

What you essentially did here is made it so it doesn\'t actually execute the steps. It just prints out the name of the step. What error were you getting prior to removing said line?

I was getting this error message.

ben@ubuntu:~$ /home/ben/easy_planeshift/build
The following steps will be performed (in order):

- Backup art directory
- Perform CVS update
- Clean out binary objects
- Check dependencies
- Compile all software packages
- Restore art data from backup

Will begin in 5 seconds...

As mentioned in the README file, the build script must be run from inside of the easy_planeshift directory. Please try the following:

cd /home/ben/easy_planeshift
./build

Now it gives this error message.

Can you show me the output of \"./build -diagnose\" ?
Also, if possible, paste the contents of of \"scripts/save_art.sh\". If possible, get on IRC at irc.freenode.net #planeshift-build and I can help you figure out this problem in realtime.

[bobmaster]

How do I diagnose it? I tryed going on irc.freenode.net #planeshift-build but it said it was forbidden. Oh, here\'s the art script.
#!/bin/bash

# This script backs up your Planeshift \"art\" directory
# Only works if you have previously run save_art.sh

BACK_DIR=\".psart\"
SAVE_DIR=\"binaries/planeshift/art\"

echo \"Copying art directory to backup location\"

rm -rf \"$BACK_DIR\"
mv \"$SAVE_DIR\" \"$BACK_DIR\"

As it says in the README file, when inside of the \"easy_planeshift\" directory.. you type \"./build -diagnose\" and hit enter.

It appears that you are using an old version of the scripts, please view the first post in this thread (by me) and follow the instructions CAREFULLY for updating your version of the scripts.

After you do this, running \"./build -version\" should show your build script version as \"1.0\"

After you ensure that you are using the new version of the scripts, try building again (as described in the README) and let me know if that fixed your problem.

I got it to work thank you for your help.

Hi! Thank your for your script!
But...

./psrun psclient starts - I can log in with my character and then it hangs.

Shell output is (about 1000 times):

  Going to load and unload maps
Setting background Loading Background
  Going to load and unload maps
Setting background Loading Background
  Going to load and unload maps
Setting background Loading Background
  Going to load and unload maps

Running on Gentoo - will now try debugging mode...

[oliver123]

When using debug mode, gdb complains about a missing \"start.S\" file when I try \"list\". And ddd (gdb GUI) complains about this already at the start. Maybe gdb doesn\'t know where to find the source files?

Does anyone have an idea how to solve that problem?

Thanks,
Oliver

When I try to build  I get alot of nothing basically.  There is no psclient binary, but there is an updater binary.  Some parts of CS don\'t build right either - because I get weird errors when running pssetup.

But I don\'t know how much that helps so here are the errors I get when trynig to run pssetup:

WARNING: could not load plugin \'crystalspace.font.server.freetype2\'
WARNING: could not load plugin \'crystalspace.graphics2d.glx\'
Error loading Graphics2D plugin.
WARNING: failed to initialize plugin \'crystalspace.graphics3d.opengl\'
No 3D driver!
psclient:  No 3d driver (iGraphics3D) plugin!


I thought the no freetype was weird so I wnt to see if I had it installed.  What I learned was that my repository contains only a dummy package for freetype2 as a transitional package to libttf2 which is installed.  The build needs probabily to be able to know of libttf2 nowadays instead of the old freetype2 - I don\'t know it this is a your script thing or CS build. I installed the freetype2 dummy package and reran pssetup but that error was still there so it must be something that must be needed at builttime - I\'m rebuilding now.................done! opp nope exact same errors as before even after freetype dummy package installed... plus the other errors are still there too of course but I didn\'t have any idea about waht to do with them.   Anything else I can post? In the meanwhile I\'ll compile with debugging symbols and see what the output is then

@Induane: Try to do:

./build 2>error.log

or, if You already have all sources downloaded

scripts/compile_all.sh 2>error.log

Check error.log after finished build. What errors have you there ?

[Induane]

I figured most of it out.  I got CS to build right alon without Cal3d.  The main issue was missing dev files for X.  These aren\'t checked for in the scripts.  Also, I cannot build Cal3d at all. I\'m still having annoying automake errors.  Frustrates me to no end.  So as it sits, I\'ll end up using the binaries.
