"Developers and Unix users *only*:
* Download Quackle source code (requires scons
<http://www.scons.org/> and Qt 4
<http://www.trolltech.com/download/opensource.html> to compile):
quackle-0.91-source.tar.gz
<downloads/quackle-0.91/quackle-0.91-source.tar.gz>
See README for compilation instructions",
is it documented which Unix(es) or Unix-like Operating System(s) Quackle
is being developed on? If the OS was freely available, I might want to
get a copy to try to improve my chances of successfully compiling
Quackle and its prerequisites, though it's probably wildly optimistic to
hope that I might succeed, as I'm not skilled in compiling from source
and usually get no end of error messages when I try.
At the time of writing, I can't access
http://sourceforge.net/projects/quackle, as it's down for maintenance.
Maybe there's a relevant FAQ there.
I tried to compile Qt 4 on Suse 10.0, having failed to find pre-compiled
Qt 4 packages for Suse, but didn't get past the ./configure stage (which
halted with the following:
...
gmake: g++ : Command not found
gmake: *** [project.o] Error 127
...).
There's talk at
http://lists.freestandards.org/pipermail/lsb-futures/2006-March/001987.html
of Qt 4 packages being made available for Fedora Core 5, though I
haven't yet discovered whether such packages are in fact available.
Fedora Core 5 is on the cover DVD of the June 2006 Personal Computer
World I recently received but I haven't tried it yet. If I could
install Quackle's prerequisites as packages, rather than having to
compile them from source, that would be an advantage from my point of view.
I expect I'll just have to stick with Windows versions of Quackle unless
I can find installation instructions or scripts which work with a
version of Linux I have and the hardware I have. I shall be pleased
if/when a further release of Quackle fixes the problem which prevents it
working on Win98. In the meantime, I suppose I can revert to using the
original release of Quackle for Windows when I want to use Quackle on
PCs which don't have a recent version of Windows installed.
