            Bug ID: 379529
           Summary: Krita build instructions are hard to follow.
           Product: krita
           Version: git master
          Platform: MS Windows
                OS: MS Windows
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: krita-bugs-n...@kde.org
          Reporter: r03...@gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

Hello,

I thought of marking this as "wishlist" but the instructions are keeping me
from doing any development at all. I don't doubt people who currently have the
build process working can build the project, but it is almost impossible to set
up and does not seem to produce repeatable results. This is not a criticism of
this project specifically; many Windows projects have this problem, and a good
many of them came from a Unix or Linux codebase.

It is my recommendation that the project be ported to the KDE on Windows
project's Craft buildsystem
(https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Build_from_source/Windows).
This would make many of the steps currently in the build process redundant, and
allow for the reuse of the directory structure already present for other KDE
dependencies.

I would offer to do this myself but I can't make heads or tails of Craft.
