I am working on the updated documentation and I am in the process of
updating the installation information
Since I am not in the position of trying all distributions it would be
good if I got a little help
In order to COMPILE FROM SOURCES in the different distros...
And I do say - from sources.
Which packages (deb or rpm or whatever) are needed for the different
distributions?
I think we are pretty up to date with the current documentation for
Ubuntu/Debian. We should still check though
But what about Rasbian, Fedora, Centos, openSUSE, Manjaro, Arch, and
whatever?
If anyone can contribute with a list of names for their favorite distro
- here in the mailing list will be fine. Then I will add it to the wiki.
I consider making only a generic installation procedure in the generel
guide and have special pages on the wiki for each strange distro. Then
you can all help keeping them up to date.
The build from sources once you have the right resources installed
should be the same everywhere

I use Slackware (currently using 14.2 x86_64). Here's the most up-to-date
build for it https://slackbuilds.org/repository/14.2/system/motion/ using an
old tarball of motion-20120717_0fb31d6.tar.xz
Is that what you are asking for?

The guide includes an extensive section on how to obtain the source
code, get all the dependencies and build motion from source on various
platforms which needs to be updated. For debian systems, it indicates
the particular apt packages that are needed. For openSUSE, the guide
currently only lists SOME of the zypper packages that are needed to
build motion. The question is where to obtain and how to install all
the needed building packages on other distributions. Also, if there are
any particularly unique building steps, then that would be desired in
the guide. Below is the sample section for openSUSE. We are trying to
fill this in with accurate information, eliminate the "Not known by
author" and create similar sections for all the other distributions.
/openSUSE Packages/
/ Required/
/ sudo zypper install autoconf automake libtool/
/ sudo zypper install --type pattern devel_basis/
/ sudo zypper install libjpeg8-devel/
/ sudo zypper install -t pattern devel_C_C++/
/ Optional Packages/
/ FFMpeg Functionality(Required for creating movies, using
network cameras, etc. SEE NOTE BELOW!)/
/ sudo zypper ar -f -n packman-essentials
http://packman.inode.at/suse/openSUSE_13.1/Essentials/ packman-essentials/
/ sudo zypper ar -f -n packman-multimedia
http://packman.inode.at/suse/openSUSE_13.1/Multimedia/ packman-multimedia/
/ sudo zypper install libffmpeg-devel/
/ MySQL database functionality/
/ Not known by author/
/ PostgreSQL database functionality/
/ Not known by author/
/ SQLite3 database functionality/

Subject: [Motion-user] process_id_file

If I have two motion instances and two different config files, with the
process_id_file setting in each set to:
process_id_file /var/run/motion/a.pid
process_id_file /var/run/motion/b.pid
And start the first, I see a.pid, but if I start the second, a.pid
disappears and b.pid appears - however the first process is still
running. Any thoughts?

I don't have such issue:
mk808:~ # grep process_id_file motion.mk808-uvc.conf motion.mk808.conf
motion.mk808-uvc.conf:process_id_file /var/run/motion/motion-uvc.pid
motion.mk808.conf:process_id_file /var/run/motion/motion.pid
mk808:~ # ls /var/run/motion/
motion-uvc.pid motion.pid
