Sounds like he is using docker to build a 20.04 LTS container (matching
his target OS), so that he might be able to "ninja install" in the
container, and obtain code that could be installed outside of docker.
docker here is being used for a backport environment.
I'm not a gnucash developer, but generally, if you have a good build in
docker, you should be able to "ninja install" into some scratch dir,
make a tar file (or whatever), and get that out of docker. Then, untar
that on the target machine.
One complication is that the build might assume it is installed in
/usr/bin, for example, and you might need to tell it to install in
/opt/gnucash, if the build is not relocatable. I haven't built gnucash,
but if there are any instructions for installing in non-standard
locations (ie: not /usr/bin), follow those instructions.
This is what I am trying to do. Will build again with the intended
target directory matching the one from the other device and then copying
everything across. Will post again how it went.
thanks, Hajo
