Thanks. I appear to have the build dependencies worked out using scons, but I don't see a blender binary created. According to the docs there should be an "install" directory, which I don't see. I see a "release" and "release/bin" containing "blender-softwaregl" and "blender-thumbnailer.py", but nothing else.
$ python scons/scons.py ... Install file: "release/scripts/addons/add_curve_extra_objects/add_curve_torus_knots.py" as "/home/josh.stratton/Public/install/linux/2.71/scripts/addons/add_curve_extra_objects/add_curve_torus_knots.py" Install file: "release/scripts/addons/add_curve_extra_objects/add_curve_spirals.py" as "/home/josh.stratton/Public/install/linux/2.71/scripts/addons/add_curve_extra_objects/add_curve_spirals.py" Install file: "release/scripts/addons/add_curve_extra_objects/__init__.py" as "/home/josh.stratton/Public/install/linux/2.71/scripts/addons/add_curve_extra_objects/__init__.py" scons: done building targets. $ On Thu, Jul 31, 2014 at 10:34 PM, Campbell Barton <[email protected]> wrote: > You didn't say what OS you're on but each platform has similar steps: > > http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:Doc/Building_Blender > Link to your OS (eg Linux) > > http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:Doc/Building_Blender/Linux > Link to the Distro (eg Ubuntu/CMake) > > Each doc on building has a section like this: > > http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:Doc/Building_Blender/Linux/Ubuntu/CMake#Get_the_source > > On Fri, Aug 1, 2014 at 3:12 PM, Josh Stratton <[email protected]> > wrote: > > I've been to that page and neighboring pages, but I must be crazy > > because I don't see the URL for the repository.
