Hi all I have made a new version of the kdenlive builder wizard I created a couple of weeks ago.
It has a number of improvements, but I reckon the two most important to this list is the ability to build kdenlive4, and the inclusion of gdb debugging support in the startup script: if started through the startup script, and gdb and kdialog is installed, it will query the user to run through gdb, and in case of a crash, retain a log with lots of info in it. It has been tested on a clean kubuntu 8.04 with KDE 4.1 applied, where it appears to work [see below for steps]. But, in keeping with Dan Dennedys advice, I would really (really really) love to get some feedback from this list, before I start blowing the horn for it. Oh, and perhaps an important note: the wizard configures mlt with --disable-qimage because I simply could not figure out a way to reliably let the mlt configure system know where to find qimage.h. (Shouldn't the sources include Qt/qimage.h at the least, or something?). I have made the wizard available for testing at http://www.dydensborg.dk/software/kbw/kdenlive_builder_wizard.kmdr Its a 400 KB download - please give it a try. Thanks Mads P.S. For the list/google, here are the steps I followed on Kubuntu 8.04 to test it: 1) install Kubuntu 8.04 2) apt-get update ; apt-get upgrade 3) follow instructions at http://www.kubuntu.org/news/kde-4.1 to get kde 4.1 installed 4) apt-get install kommander subversion g++ cmake pkg-config kdelibs5-dev libsdl1.2-dev libxml2-dev (This adds more than 100 packages to the system) 5) log out, log in using kde 4.1 6) run "kmdr-executor kdenlive_builder_wizard.kmdr", follow the instructions on-screen. Press "Cancel" after succes, press "open folder", click "kdenlive_start" and you are in bussiness. Note, that this compiles mlt without the modules dv, frei0r, gtk2, jackrack, qimage, resample, sox, and vorbis. The logfile does contain instructions on getting support for these modules, but the above is a working baseline. Search for MLTDISABLED in the log file for more information. -- Mads Bondo Dydensborg [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.madsdydensborg.dk/ Virtually every major technological advance in the history of the human species-- back to the invention of stone tools and the domestication of fire-- has been ethically ambiguous. - Carl Sagan (The Demon-Haunted World) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Kdenlive-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/kdenlive-devel
