Included libraries preen. Forward compatibility.
Posted: Wed Jan 15, 2025 6:00 pm
I'm hoping to help update the libraries bundled with the Oolite installer for Linux, as I run it on two different distros, and always need to shovel some libraries into $HOME/GNUstep/Applications/Oolite/oolite-deps to get it working on whichever is not the current build distro.
I've made a fork which builds (currently) using Ubuntu 20.04 for best spread of compatibility possible with the free github runners.
For the API docs, I've temporarily botched around the doxygen latest, reverting to whatever version is included in 20.04 as the latest tarball needs newer libs. For reasons I don't care about right now, as it shouldn't affect the installer, the 'deploy site' stage fails during build.
I've run it on Ubu 20/22/24 to figure out what libs need bundling. Please try this on your distro of choice, run it from a terminal if it fails, and let me know here (or on github) what other libs need bundling.
I'll tidy up and do a PR if this plays nice for others.
