Is there a reason for not installing from Github vs the repository. I take it that there is a special repo for tlf than what is in Ubuntu (ver 1.1.5)? What is the repo url or path to put in Ubuntu software sources?
Here is what I have used before and to update tlf which includes some of the prerequisites and appears to git from guthub/Tlf. #!/bin/bash #If you want a non-root local install you can do the following: #Create your local programs directory and add it to your path echo 'export PATH=$HOME/local/bin:$PATH' >> ~/.bashrc source ~/.bashrc mkdir ~/local #for local hamlib #echo 'export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$HOME/local/lib' >> ~/.bashrc #source ~/.bashrc #Install tlf #first install these so tlf will configure without complaining sudo apt-get install build-essential sudo apt-get install autoconf sudo apt-get install libglib2.0-dev sudo apt-get install libncurses5-dev git clone https://github.com/Tlf/tlf.git tlf pushd tlf autoreconf --install ./configure --prefix=$HOME/local --enable hamlib #for hamlib #PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$HOME/local/lib/pkgconfig/ ./configure --prefix=$HOME/local --enable-hamlib make install popd echo tlf will be in $HOME/local echo directions are in $HOME/local/share/tlf Jim/W3FA ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ed" <au...@comcast.net> To: "Ervin Hegedüs" <airw...@gmail.com>, "Jim Bruce" <jimw...@gmail.com>, "TLF" <tlf-devel@nongnu.org> Sent: Sunday, August 31, 2014 3:30:12 PM Subject: Re: [Tlf-devel] TLF install and newer computer >> From a terminal :: >> >> sudo apt-get install build-essentials >> >> sudo apt-get build-dep tlf >> >> Make sure you have all the needed repositories checked. > > at this way you will compile and install Tlf from the repository, > not from the current source tree, from Github. > > > Ervin > HA2OS > > No, that is not correct. To install tlf from the repository:: sudo apt-get install tlf The 1st one installs the basic tools for building from source. The 2nd one installs only the dependencies that tlf needs.
