Mcbuilder

How to build mcbuilder for Make Controller on Linux

Instructions are for Fedora 14 up to Fedora 16

• Install dependencies

yum install dbus-devel

• Get the source

svn co http://makecontroller.googlecode.com/svn/mcbuilder/trunk mcbuilder

• CD into the source

cd mcbuilder

• Update mercurial entries for future pull, edit ~/.hgrc and add

[trusted]
users = storage
groups = staff

They must match the user/group where qextserialport sources are being downloaded

• Replace qextserialport

cd src
mv qextserialport qextserialport-orig
git clone https://github.com/qextserialport/qextserialport.git

• Go to the root folder of mcbuilder

cd ../../

• Patch the project file. This is because libhal is no longer supported since Fedora 16, and some sources have been renamed.
