I have no idea about a bug in 17.12 which is now an old version. Here is how to compile/install the last version:
If you want to install in the default destination /usr/local you only have to type: mkdir build cd build cmake .. make sudo make install If you want to install in a non standard place, use: cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/somewhere/in/the/system Only if you want to debug, you have to add the option: -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug without the brackets. BTW you don't need to be root when compiling RG. You have to be root only when installing with "sudo make install" or with "su" then "make install" Hope it helps Yves Le 27 avril 2020 à 02H56 (-0400) liebre...@grossmann-venter.com a écrit : > I must add that I cd to build before I execute the cmake inastruction > Either way it doesnt make a difference it remains the same problem. > > > > > > root@1:/rosegarden-19.12# ls > > AUTHORS CMakeLists.txt COPYING Doxyfile > > rosegarden.spec.in src cmake CONTRIBUTING > > data README scripts test > > > > root@1:/rosegarden-19.12# mkdir build > > > > root@1:/rosegarden-19.12# cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=[PREFIX] > > [-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug] > > CMake Error: The source directory > > "/rosegarden/rosegarden-19.12/[-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug]" does not > > exist. > > Specify --help for usage, or press the help button on the CMake GUI. > > root@Tango:/rosegarden/rosegarden-19.12# > > > > > > _______________________________________________ > > Rosegarden-user mailing list > > Rosegarden-user@lists.sourceforge.net - use the link below to > > unsubscribe > > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/rosegarden-user > > > _______________________________________________ > Rosegarden-user mailing list > Rosegarden-user@lists.sourceforge.net - use the link below to > unsubscribe > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/rosegarden-user _______________________________________________ Rosegarden-user mailing list Rosegarden-user@lists.sourceforge.net - use the link below to unsubscribe https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/rosegarden-user
