BUILDING
$ cd indra $ scons DISTCC=no BTARGET=client BUILD=release
- resulting unstripped binary is then newview/secondlife-i686-bin
RUNNING FROM INSIDE THE TREE
- preparing to run 'in-tree'
- ensure you have indra/newview/app_settings/static_*.db2 - if not, you'll find it in the 'binary-common' package.
$ cp ../../scripts/messages/message_template.msg app_settings/
- running it!
$ ( cd newview && LD_LIBRARY_PATH=../../libraries/i686-linux/lib_release_client:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}:/usr/local/lib ./secondlife-i686-bin )
PACKAGING
Doesn't work 'out of the box' as an automated process right now.
OLD Ubuntu build notes - may be incorrect
Ubuntu 5.10 and higher uses a newer version of libc6 with a bug fix that breaks our codebase.
If you see errors of the form:
obj_dat.c:(.text+0x857): undefined reference to `__ctype_b'
...when you try to build our codebase then you need to enable the CTYPE_WORKAROUND. If you use 'make' or 'dmake', add the
following lines to your ~/.bashrc file:
export SIMULATOR_CPPFLAGS="-DCTYPE_WORKAROUND"
export RPCSERVER_CPPFLAGS="-DCTYPE_WORKAROUND"
export DATASERVER_CPPFLAGS="-DCTYPE_WORKAROUND"
export USERSERVER_CPPFLAGS="-DCTYPE_WORKAROUND"
export TEST_CPPFLAGS="-DCTYPE_WORKAROUND"
If you use 'scons', add the follow line to your ~/.bashrc file:
export SERVER_CPPFLAGS="-DCTYPE_WORKAROUND"
Source your ~/.bashrc, or open a new terminal, and build again.
