I've been building iterations of my UpLib installer all day. As part of
this, I build every dependency from source and install it. Usually, the
longest part of this is building an open-source PDF renderer. However,
today the longest part by far is building PyLucene, and in particular
the part where it does a Subversion checkout of the Lucene sources. Very
slow today.
Is there any way to include a pre-wrapped version of these sources?
Shouldn't just a jar file do OK? Can I generate such a version somehow?
What I'm building is PyLucene-2.4.0-1-src-jcc.tar.gz.
You can do:
$ make sources
$ tar -cvjf lucene-java-2.4.1.tar.bz2 lucene-java-2.4.1
Then, before you do your regular PyLucene build:
$ tar -xvjf lucene-java-2.4.1.tar.bz2
That way, the Lucene sources are found and the 'svn export' step doesn't
need to be run.
Andi..
