Re: Trinity on Slackware

Hello and sorry for the late reply,

I have published my SlackBuilds generator for TDE on GitHub. Please read the README before using it. I haven't tested it on pretty much anything but my main Slackware64-current machine, so you can expect bugs. You can also expect it to fail with some error I had not foreseen. I don't plan to spend much time, but I'm open to feedback and I will accept bug reports (contributions are even more welcome ;-))

https://github.com/blu256/tde-slackbuild-gen

Use it to build packages not provided by Ray-V's SlackBuilds and make sure you specify the correct path settings based on where you installed TDE (I tested mostly with the /usr prefix).

Instructions:
1. Clone the repository of your chosen package or otherwise obtain its source code. 2. Run `./gentdesb <dir>`, where <dir> is the directory where the source code is stored (e.g. ` ./gentdesb mathemagics`, if your source code is in a directory named "mathemagics" under the current directory).
3. You will be prompted for some basic information (paths, build type).
4. gentdesb will generate an appropriate SlackBuild based on your input and the detected build system for the package. You are advised to actually take a look at the generated SlackBuild, just for safety (no, don't worry, I haven't sneaked a `rm -rf /` in there).
5. Run the generated SlackBuild (e.g.`./mathemagics.SlackBuild`)
6. Install the generated package (e.g. `installpkg /tmp/mathemagics-git-x86_64-1_tde.tgz`). Its name will be reported by the SlackBuild when the build finishes.
