Our first project, teagtk and teaqt - Finished!

[Joble]

Out of pure desparation I'm working on this again.  Seems there are two versions, gtk and qt.  I think I'll try to build them both, I need the practice.

[Joble]

OK, this thing built fine but I do have a question.  tea is now qt, tea for gtk has been renamed teagtk, since I intend to try to build them both, would this line suffice in my spec file to keep things straight in the repo?
GTK Spec file:
Obsoletes:   tea-17.6.1-1pclos2007

Hmm, answered my own question I think.  Installed tea from the repo, then installed teagtk, and now they are both installed, so that didn't work as I expected it would.

try:

Code: [Select]

Obsoletes: tea <= 17.6.1-1
..might want to make that version number higher..  ie. last shared qt-gtk version (..just in case someone has personal RPM install)

[Joble]

I will give that a try, Thx Travis.

[Joble]

Code: [Select]

Obsoletes: tea <= 17.6.5

Code: [Select]

That did it, now to build the qt version and check for conflicts!

Thx Again Travis!

[Joble]

Another Delay.  The QT version requires QT4.4 or higher, which it looks like we have in synaptic, so I installed task-qt4 and searched for qmake, there are symlinks to it all over the place but it does not exist in /usr/lib/qt4/bin/ which is where all the symlinks point.    

qmake -> /usr/lib/qt4/bin/qmake  (It does not exist)

I will send the updated gtk version to contribs, but if I ever get the qt version built and they conflict, I will have to mkrel 2.

Sent!

Edit:

Nice!  We now have qmake.

At my whits end for the moment, here's where it left off, any help appreciated:

Try removing / commenting out the corresponding lines from the files section of your spec.. 

You may get new errors about un-packaged files afterward; if you do, then add the file/paths for the un-packaged files to your files section.

looks like your getting close! 

[Joble]

You pointed me in the right direction for sure.  Got it to build with no errors and installs fine, but..... I can't find the executable!  Either they forgot it   or I'm still doing something wrong.  

[MaddogF16]

/usr/bin?? /usr/share/bin??

[Joble]

Not there, does not exist.  Could not find with which and could not updatedb and locate it.  It's not there.

[travisN000]

Try to configure/make/install it manually and see what it does? 

if it really doesn't exist, contact the developer

[Joble]

The source installs the executable to /usr/local/bin/

After watching the source build, it looks like qmake is what actually builds the executable and the make file, so I think the problem lies there, with the spec file.

I am learning a bit about what not to do, with trying different things.

[travisN000]

Maybe try changing ...buildroot/usr/bin/* to ...buildroot/usr/local/bin/*
 

[Texstar]

Try adding to your specfile

%define prefix /usr
