Thanks for sharing link to this blog post, I found Tutorial: Contributing to Racket[1] helpful as well, in building the latest racket source locally. But I can't find any instructions for how to build/install latest DrRacket after cloning it from GitHub and link it with my fresh racket build. I looked at 'Building Installers' section at [2], but that looks needlessly complicated for my need -- I just want to generate a build for my local machine (Mac OS X) for small hacks to DrRacket IDE. Perhaps I need to use the package system as you mention, but it's not clear what is the correct way of doing that. I tried a variant of `raco pkg install <drracket/drracket>` from the git clone, which succeeded with some errors and installed DrRacket at ~/Library/Racket/6.2.0.4/DrRacket.app, but opening the app fails with the following error: ``` $ open DrRacket.app LSOpenURLsWithRole() failed with error -10810 for the file /Users/k4rtik/Library/Racket/6.2.0.4/DrRacket.app. ``` [1]: http://blog.racket-lang.org/2012/11/tutorial-contributing-to-racket.html [2]: https://github.com/plt/racket/blob/master/INSTALL.txt -- Kartik -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Racket Users" group.
