Having returned from an academic visit to Perth WA, I'm getting back to my attempt to set up a build-bot to allow for building of versions of gnumeric that are up to date e.g., Windows cross-compile. I've still lots to learn.
My current problem concerns a matter that has appeared several times in the archives, namely libgsf. The jhbuild default for building libgsf creates 1.14.4, but the gnumeric.spec.in wants 1.14.6. Can someone point me to documentation on how to put in the correct settings? The JHBuild manual gives the syntax, but not the location of the defaults. There's also some glitchiness with scripts for gtk+: Here there appear to be no "make" rules for install all or test all, but ignoring the errors seems to be OK. However, I'm ultimately going to want to avoid stoppages and manual intervention on these scripts. For information, my goal is to have a web page to select the settings for the build and send an email notification when the result is done. And I'm painfully aware that this will mean figuring out how to package up everything so it works for other folk. Collaboration welcome -- this sort of thing is not part of my computer background in numerical and web programming. My gut feeling is that in order to get the system I want set up, I'm likely to have to document and clean up some of the scripts, which will be useful anyway.
