Are you trying to build Linuxcnc from source or installing/updating LInuxcnc from Buildbot? I'm still not sure what distro you are working with. (You seem to have talked about several.)
I have not tried to build from source on Lucid for a very long time. (But I do recall having a great deal of difficulty meeting all the dependencies.) Are you sure all of your custom modules are still "custom", or needed? There have been a lot of little goodies added to Linuxcnc since 2.5-2.6 days. Maybe they can be added using halcompile (formerly known as comp)? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Les Newell" <les.new...@fastmail.co.uk> To: "Enhanced Machine Controller (EMC)" <emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net> Sent: Wednesday, June 28, 2017 12:51:51 PM Subject: Re: [Emc-users] Rough motion with servos Hi Todd, I did that but I can't build because it needs Python >=2.7 and the repositories only contain 2.6. I tried a very basic test config with with the version that is shipped with 2.7.9 and it appeared to run smoothly, at least once I figured out I needed to pet the watchdog. I'm not going to admit how long it took me to figure that one out :-[ I can't run my lathe properly because it depends on a bunch of custom modules which I can't sort out until I can build LinuxCNC.
