Re: [Planner] How do I build planner ?

John,

Assuming that you have checked out the planner source tree
to e.g. /home/john/planner

Then
	
	cd /home/john/planner
	su root
	./autogen.sh

***wait around 3 minutes ***

	make

*** wait around 5 minutes ***

	make install

** wait around 1 minute then run your program ***

	exit
	planner

Thats it !.

Now the hardish bit if autogen.sh didn't work....

Autogen.sh may complain of various unistalled stuff.
On my Mandrake 9.2 system initially I couldn't do
a ./autogen.sh in the planner directory (which I'd
checkout from CVS) due to automake not being the
correct version.

The autogen.sh talks about needing automake installed
and refers you to version 1.4 when in fact it wants
automake 1.7. I also needed intltool >=0.28 (Mandrake
9.2 uses 0.27 but 0.29 is in cooker).

Automake1.7 needs autoconf2.5 thus first step is...

rpm -Uvh autoconf2.5-2.57-5mdk.noarch.rpm

and because automake < 1.4-22.p6.mdk conflicts with
automake1.7-1.7.6-1mdk

I had to do...

rpm -Uvh automake-1.4-23.p6.mdk.noarch.rpm

and then I could do....

rpm -ivh automake1.7-1.7.6-1mdk.noarch.rpm

Finally...
rpm -Uvh intltool-0.29-2mdk.noarch.rpm

Also to fix the GTK_DOC_CHECK(1.0) error you need
the gtk-doc package installed. On a Mandrake 9.2 system
this is...

rpm -ivh gtk-doc-1.1-3mdk.noarch.rpm  )

(Gtk-doc may have a few dependancies e.g. I added,
rpm -ivh libxslt-proc-1.0.33-1mdk.i586.rpm
rpm -ivh docbook-style-xsl-1.61.3-3mdk.noarch.rpm

Obviously on your distribution the exact package names
will vary.

Rgds,
Lincoln (new to Planner too !).
