Went back to top of Building LinuxCNC from the wiki. cd linuxcnc-dev/src make clean ./autogen.sh ./configure --with-realtime=uspace skipped make, sudo make setuid,source ../scripts/rip-environment, checked ulimit=unlimited cd linuxcnc-dev/debian ./configure uspace cd .. dpkg-checkbuilddeps returns a null dpkg-buildpackage -b -uc an hour+ later it hangs building doc pdf's, can't convert this and that,can't find inkscape or imagemagick. Install them. This is stuff that dpkg-checkbuilddeps SHOULD have reported if it wasn't dumber than a rock. So it looks like I've wasted 2 hours and have got to start all over with a make clean. I have previously done the make, sudo make setuid, setup the rip-environment and done the runtests, which it pass without any raised eyebrows. The result is the code on my web page thats dependency broken. Do I have to do all that before issueing the dpkg-buildpackage -b -uc? runtests takes about an hour by itself, I ask because it appears the make etc, appears to do its own make and buildpackage ignores that, doing it all over again. Thank you all. Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
