Re: [orca-list] The great secret of building from source



Hi David,

That is a valid question and request. I think that what happens is that the more advanced users are busy trying to improve Orca and sometimes end-up not investing time in a script for the rest of us to help out.

It's understandable. My own technical team sometimes does not have time to help me out. Attached I am sharing a script I used to use to try various versions of Orca on my F123 system. If any more technical person wishes to use that as a base for a more up-to-date orca installation script, please go ahead. Just share it back with the list so we can all try it with 12.04.

Please do not use it on a production machine unless you understand what it does. I think it needs some updating for use with 12.04.

Best,

Fernando

Hi everyone,

It seems many on this list are happily building and running orca from
source, but no one willing to share the great secret of what is or is
not required these days for things to work correctly.
With the orca website out of date, this list would be the logical
resource to have this question answered and then the answer moved to the
orca site to bring it up-to-date again.
So asking for the third time:
What are the steps to build the current versions of orca+at-spi2 and
anything else necessary to help test things out.
David
