This is an old revision of the document! The Future Rosegarden 2.0The end is closer every day. After months of slogging, we finally have something tangible, and quite broken.
Rosegarden 2.0 Working environmentHere's how to check out, update, and test-build the Qt4 port. Note that this code is now in the Subversion trunk, it is no longer a separate branch. (The old, stable code is the separate branch now.) First you'll need the Qt4 and KDE4 headers. On Ubuntu this one line seems to be enough: $ sudo apt-get install kdelibs5-dev Yes, that's a 5. Then, $ svn co https://rosegarden.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/rosegarden/trunk/rosegarden $ cd rosegarden $ sh ./bootstrap.sh $ ./configure $ make $ ./rosegarden If that fails catastrophically, you probably need to edit the Makefile to adjust it to your environment. For the old KDE3 codebase we used a comprehensive CMake-based build system; this has never (yet) been converted to the new code, so we are testing a simpler autoconf configuration instead. It should work, but it's not guaranteed. If you find fixable problems, please report them to the -devel list. There is no need to install anything, as it is all encapsulated in the one rosegarden binary. Bug trackerWe're not going to start using the SourceForge tracker to keep track of things until later in the process. Instead, we've got this handy dandy Tracker Page |
