[Hampshire] Portsmouth and South East Hants LUG - February 18th IRL
This month's meet will be at Broad Oak, with the usual IRL start of 1pm, and sandwiches will be available. I did have a rash thought about managing a talk on Docker / Portainer this month, but ongoing 'challenges' with the NHS have put paid to that. I can still cover it in an unplanned chat if anyone is interested to see what I've been up to, but a formal talk will have to wait. I do have a couple that have been offered so just need to sort out some dates. On the Docker front, if anyone has any insights on volumes that are store somewhere other than /var/lib/docker/volume/ and aren't network mounted I'd be interested to find out more. As far as I can work out from the documentation that's against the Docker way, unless you use bind mounts rather than proper volumes (which of course are configured as volumes just to confuse you!). Computers are supposed to be logical, unfortunately programmers not so much ;-) See you there or, well, erm, not I guess - it is purely voluntary, but we still don't bite and we have no plans to. Oh, final point of note, I will be looking to head off around 5pm ish this month. Things are often thinning out by then so I don't expect it will be an issue, but just mentioning in case it impact transport choices. (Being lazy again this month with one email to all lists, hopefully the cross post won't upset any of the configurations!). Keep safe.

[Hampshire] Compiling from source
Hi all Sorry to ask a question I've kind of asked before but... I'm trying to compile Elkulator [1] from source. I've done this before and (forgive me I can't find the name of the list member who very kindly helped) come across similar problems. The docs tell me that certain libraries need installing - which I've done - which is more than I managed last time! Thus far I can get a Makefile which seems ok - but I'm getting compilation errors which require a level of C that I perhaps once had but have definitely forgotten / API has changed too much. I'm compiling for Ubuntu Jammy - so if anyone would like to help - I can post the errors. There are a huge amount of them so (unless anyone offers) I won't post them to the list and clog everyone's inboxes.

The emulator uses autoconf, so it's worth recording the output of the configure run. In fact, I tend to record everything when I'm building from source. Try something like: ./configure 2>&1 | tee Config-1.log I append a serial number to the log files, as you rarely get it right first time. Another tip is to keep the configure invocation for future reference. Once you have the log, check it for errors or reports of missing elements that you expect to be there. Depending on how it was set up, configure can report a dependency as "missing", but still complete.
