Hi Sasha, Thank you for your kind words to me and others in the 'community'.
It seems you have installed PLIB, OpenSceneGraph (OSG), simgear, simgear-cs, etc into the 'global' environment, that is the 'standard' install situation, and then dealt with the obvious clash between cvs simgear, and git simgear-cs libraries... And offer some good information if other want to 'try' this ;=)) thank you again. As an alternative, I only install plib, OSG, cvs-SG, git-SG, etc, relative to the build directory by careful use of --prefix=<path> during the ./configure stage. As I have stated before, and as you indicated, the rules as I see them are :- - cvs FG will only compile with cvs SG - git TG will only compile with git SG - and cvs TG will NOT compile at all ;=(( It may be possible to compile cvs TG against an OLDER cvs SG version, like -rPRE_OSG_PLIB_20061029, or there abouts, but have not tried this... So I, and some others, have some do-it-all scripts to achieve this :- seb : http://seb.marque.free.fr/fichiers/scripts/bash/compile.tgz Francesco : http://wiki.flightgear.org/index.php/Scripted_Compilation_on_Linux_Debian/Ubuntu and mine, based on that by Francesco - now version 1.0.9 http://geoffair.net/tmp/makefg - plib,osg,sg(cvs),fg(cvs),fgrun,data - opt Atlas http://geoffair.net/tmp/maketg - plib,osg,sg(git),tg(git),data You just create a new folder in your user space, like say tg, and run the script - ~$ md tg ~$ cd tg ~/tg$ ./maketg Note, it is run WITHOUT 'sudo', and as a 'user', not 'root', and on the initial run, it does require your pwd to do apt-get install <long list> of packages, and tools... But after that everything is created sub to this main directory, and in the case of the TG tools, they are installed in $HOME/bin. You can thus add $HOME/bin to your PATH ~/tg$ export PATH="$PATH:$HOME/bin" makes the tools accessible 'globally', and/or this can be added to $HOME/.bashrc, or $HOME/.bash_aliases to have it in every terminal. And - ~/tg$ ./maketg --help will show a list of options it supports. It is meant to be repeatedly run, and will only build what was not done previously, or when there is a source change, or update request, PLIBUPD, OSGUPD, TGUPD, etc... Now onto the scenery, the purpose of the TG tools ;=)) With this suite of TG tools available, you may want to take a look at my :- http://geoffair.net/tmp/makeCYYT script. This builds St John, but it would not be too much trouble to adapt it to build Nova Scotia (CYHZ)... And I have a developing page detailing some of the 'fun' building scenery :- http://geoffair.net/tmp/newscenery.htm which will at sometime be moved to my FG sub-web... and has some other reference links near the bottom... Have FUN ;=)) and thanks again for your experiences, and work around... I hope more users will join in the 'scenery' experience ;=)) Regards, Geoff. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Stay on top of everything new and different, both inside and around Java (TM) technology - register by April 22, and save $200 on the JavaOne (SM) conference, June 2-5, 2009, San Francisco. 300 plus technical and hands-on sessions.
