Snowglobe is where open development is most active right now. Follow these instructions to compile (and patch) Snowglobe sources on Linux using SVN.

This page is meant to be a quick, step-to-step, easy-to-mantain reference. See Compiling_the_viewer_(Linux) and links provided there for more details and information on dependencies, errors, etc.


Get last Snowglobe Trunk sources

svn co http://svn.secondlife.com/svn/linden/projects/2009/snowglobe/trunk

Get current libraries and artwork

./trunk/scripts/public_fetch_tarballs.py

Prepare / configure

cd linden/indra/
./develop.py configure

PATCH

Learn how and where to apply a patch.

(PLEASE CONFIRM/DENY): If you need to apply patch, you will usually have to do it inside linden/ directory.

cd ../
cp (...)/your-patch.txt .
patch -p1 < your-patch.txt

Compile

  • cd indra/viewer-linux-i686-relwithdebinfo
  • make

After compilation you get (...)/linden/indra/viewer-linux-i686-relwithdebinfo/newview/Snowglobe-something.tar.bz2 - copy it somewhere, extract it and do as usual.
