Re: [gnome-love] video guide for gnome/jhbuild

[Sriram Ramkrishna <sri ramkrishna me>]

Yes, sadly we don't have a video guide.  We do have a link for smoke testing using the stable tarball releases.  But it's not quite as smooth as I would like it.  There is still some brokenness.  Until we can work out a repeatable process it's hard to have a video HOWTO.

We need a group of jhbuilders who will bug developers to fix broken packages that don't build and also to maintain a jhbuild area that will take notes on each build.

Any takers willing to take on this challenge?  I can help mentor as I would like to see this happen.

Hello good people,

Would love to see something like this for gnome/jhbuild.....

"
There are many aspiring developers who want to help the growth of KDE,
but they don't know how to build KDE from scratch. It's not just about
make and make install. It's harder than that. I have seen many cases
where an aspiring developer would seek info on how to build KDE and he
would be point to some Wiki or othe guide which can be extremely
technical in nature and less 'tutorial. Finally KDE lead Aaron Aaron
Seigo has started a series of video tutorials on Youtube showing
building process of KDE.

Have tried jhbuild a couple of times, without success...

Best regards!
