My problem is figuring out what to tell Launchpad so it will build from source for Trusty. The debian/control file wants debhelper >= 11. It looks like 9.2 is available for Trusty do I'll try to downgrade that to >= 9. googletest isn't available for Trusty. Somehow I'll need to get that into my PPA first and have it built for Trusty there. Ditto for locales-all. Haven't found that one yet. Also need ibgwengui-gtk3-dev and libwebkit2tk-4.0-dev So, if I can figure out those five packages for Trusty, then we'll take another crack at building for the PPA. I can build on my own box just fine. Teaching the PPA up on Launchpad is another story! --Steve > On Sun, May 26, 2019 at 11:51 PM Stephen M.
