sctest REQUIREMENTS ------------------------ tde is needed to run sctest To compile sctest, the tde development packages are needed: tdelibs-devel, tdebase-devel and python scons is also needed http://www.scons.org (this tool also used by Blender, ..) Make sure scons is at least v0.96.1, otherwise the compilation will fail. In case if you do not have it, a minimum distribution is provided (see SCONS below) -> One should only have to run : $ scons # scons install (do "scons install" as root - the menus may not show up if you skip this step) SCONS ----- -> If scons is missing, use the one bundled with PROGRAMNAME : ./unpack_local_scons.sh python scons.py python scons.py install (run the last command as root) -> For your convenience, a quick makefile is created : ./unpack_local_scons.sh make make install USEFUL SCONS COMMANDS --------------------- build the targets : scons install them : scons install clean the project : scons -c uninstall : scons -c install build in parallel : scons -j2 CONFIGURATION NOTES ------------------- The installation scripts are relying on the tde-config program. The programs tde-config, qmake, uic and moc must be accesssible through your PATH. Qt and tde may not be installed as expected (in QTDIR and TDEDIR) So until tde-config is able to give that information, you may have to give those paths. Here are some examples : On Fedora/Redhat scons configure kdeincludes=/usr/include/tde/ On Debian scons configure qtincludes=/usr/include/qt/ kdeinclude=/usr/include/tde/ To install in some particular location with additional include paths scons configure prefix=~/tmp extraincludes=/tmp/include:/usr/local/include For more options to tune the build look at the .py files available on the top-level directory : generic.py, kde.py, ... The build system is based on bksys, a build system that replaces autoconf, automake and make in a row. Feel free to report your opinion about it to the authors. BUILDING RPMS OR DEBS WITH CHECKINSTALL --------------------------------------- With checkinstall 1.6, use $ scons # checkinstall --fstrans=no --nodoc scons install # scons uninstall --------------------------------------- enjoy KStreamRipper Michael Goettsche
