Cinnamon 2.x porting

[brokenman]

ok. Good luck.

[roelof]

Thanks ,

One question : Does your gnome iso have svn. I also installed the devel module but still no svn.

Roelof

[brokenman]

No svn.

slackyd -g subversion

[roelof]

And which package does contain the autogen.sh script ?

Roelof

[brokenman]

I dont' understand.

autogen.sh is a source file script. It comes with source packages.

[roelof]

oke,

When I want to compile cjs from source I see that it cannot be found.
I see that Slackbuilds have a package called autogen but that one will not work
When doing sh autogen.sh I see the message that C cannot make executables.

This is also not working.

When I want to build cjs with the buildtools of dropline gnome I see these messages: http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/foru ... nome-devel

According to the dropline developers there is a problem on Porteus. This package is compling well on stock slackware.

Roelof

[roelof]

Im giving up on this matter.

According to the dropline developers there is a problem on Porteus. This package is compling well on stock slackware.
Read back through this thread. I compiled ALL packages with no problem and got cinnamon running on Porteus, albeit without menu functionality. The problem is not with Porteus. I compiled everything from the git sources. If you are getting this error about the compiler then check that the script that sets your architecture is detecting it ok. Are you using phantomx slackbuilds on i.86?

[roelof]

No,

I use the build system of the dropline developers.

In that case be sure you have the correct 05-devel.xzm module for porteus present. Use slackyd to get the latest autoconf files: slackyd -s auto
As i mentioned earlier i suggest you wait a few days and use the latest porteus version (release tomorrow) as it will contain latest slackware base.

[roelof]

Without Gnome I think. For 14.1 there is no droplinegnome.

One question: For your fat gnome do you use the files from dropline gnome developers or the slackbuilds from phantomx.

Roelof

If you are using fat gnome then you can see all packages in /var/log/packages. In there you will see that i used the existing dropline slackware packages with the exception of the following which i had to recompile:

Code: Select all

at-spi2-atk-2.8.1-x86_64-1jay.xzm
at-spi2-core-2.8.0-x86_64-1jay.xzm

The packages are here: http://www.droplinegnome.org/files/3.8/x86-64/

[roelof]

Oke,

And the package gobject-introspection of Gnome 3.10 has the problems Im facing.
So I think I wait till the next version of Porteus is avaible and try again.

[roelof]

One question : Can I update porteus to the next version or can I better go for a clean install ?
