Title: linux source package for 3.0.0 released
Post by: MatzeB on 31 January 2008, 10:11:03

I just uploaded the final source package for glest-3.0.0 to sourceforge. Read the README.linux file for build instructions.

http://downloads.sourceforge.net/glest/ ... 0.0.tar.gz (http://downloads.sourceforge.net/glest/glest-source-3.0.0.tar.gz)

The README.linux states:

Code: [Select]

To build and install the game use the following commands (in the top glest
directory).

cd mk/linux

Alas, there is no such directoy:

Code: [Select]

glest-source-3.0.0# ls
aclocal.m4  autom4te.cache  configure.ac  glest.ini         Jamconfig.in  Jamrules     mk      README.linux
autogen.sh  configure       glest_game    glest_map_editor  Jamfile       license.txt  README  shared_lib

glest-source-3.0.0# ls mk/
autoconf  jam

I think it's meant to be jam not linux, that was a command for a previous version.

It doesn't matter, because
./configure
jam
works from the top directory as well.

Sorry, my mistake. If you download Glest 3, you extract the glest-source-3.0.0 folder and run the commands from the top glest directory like it says.

ie.
Extract
> cd glest-source-3.0.0
> ./autoconf.sh (if needed ?)
> ./configure
> jam

i get glest compiled correctly.

Then i move glest executable and glest.ini in a folder where i've unzipped data files.

I get a situation like this:

glest folder containing glest extecutable, glest.ini, folders data, maps, etc...

But when i try to start glest i get a File not found error. Nothing more specific is given in output, only this and i can't understand.

What's wrong?

Thanks

Hi ^^
I'm trying to build a glest package. Is there any standard way to have the userdata in the users homedir? Fedora creates symlinks in ~/.glest, but this seems quite ugly to me =/
