README FIRST!!!
|
|
|
|
|
|
To build this code after doing a Git clone, run:
|
|
|
|
$ acprep update
|
|
|
|
If you try to configure/build on your own, you are almost certainly going to
|
|
run into problems.
|
|
|
|
|
|
F.A.Q.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Q: The build fails saying it can't find utf8.h
|
|
|
|
A: You didn't run acprep update.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Q: The build fails saying it can't find boost_regex
|
|
|
|
A: Look in config.log and search for "boost_regex", then scroll down a bit
|
|
until you see the exact compile error. Usually it's failing because
|
|
your include directory is different from anything acprep is expecting to
|
|
see. It could also be failing because your Boost library have a custom
|
|
"suffix" on them.
|
|
|
|
Let's say your Boost was installed in ~/boost, and every library has the
|
|
suffix '-xgcc42'. This is what you would run:
|
|
|
|
CPPFLAGS=-I$HOME/boost acprep --boost=xgcc42 update
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Q: Something else fails, or Ledger crashes on startup
|
|
|
|
A: This, I am most interested in hearing about. Please e-mail me a copy of
|
|
config.log and your build log to <johnw@newartisans.com>. Also, if
|
|
Ledger is crashing, try running it under gdb like so:
|
|
|
|
$ gdb ledger
|
|
(gdb) run <ARGS TO LEDGER>
|
|
... runs till crash ...
|
|
(gdb) bt
|
|
|
|
Send me that backtrace output, and the output from "ledger --version".
