building anjuta2 on Debian Woody: success!



I initially posted this on the anjuta-devel list .. looks like I wanted to
post it here actually .. hopefully it will help some other anjuta newbies
like me ...

---------------------

Ok, I didn't try hard enough yesterday. I've been able to build anjuta2 on
a debian woody. I'll post below all the stuff I had to go through, maybe
it can be helpfull to other adventurous people out there:

grab from gnome cvs (see anjuta website/dev section for gnome cvs info):
anjuta2/
gdl/
gnome-build/
gnome-debug/

I wanted to isolate all of the stuff I compiled in a specific Anjuta
prefix. So it's gonna be /home/timo/Anjuta/usr for now. My work log
follows:

# using a /home/timo/Anjuta/usr prefix
# for installation of the CVS HEAD packages
# and installation of anjuta2

export PATH=/home/timo/Anjuta/usr/bin:$PATH

# compiled gdl with prefix (./autogen --prefix=/home/timo/Anjuta/usr)
# make install

# next, building gnome-build
# need to set ACLOCAL_FLAGS to find the gdl.m4 files
# (the m4 files are needed during automake step,
# i.e. building the configure script)
export ACLOCAL_FLAGS="-I /home/timo/Anjuta/usr/share/aclocal"

# then, the system gnome-config needs to be able to answer correctly
# when something asks about the config information for gdl
export GNOME_LIBCONFIG_PATH=/home/timo/Anjuta/usr/lib

# this allowed to build gdl and gnome-build so far
# then gnome-debug wants GAL 0.12.0 or higher
# which is not in Debian Woody yet
# grabbing explicitely libgal and libgal-dev from sid (Debian unstable)
# installs without conflicts (dpkg -i ...)
# after installing GAL, gnome-build will configure and compile

# and then .. jump to anjuta2 ..

Ok .. once the anjuta2 binary is there .. it's not very impressive when
you are running it. But if you want a creepy feeling, try this:

ldd anjuta2

TTimo :-)
