Hi Bruce, Maybe this might help to see if your flow of the build is the same as mine (which works, although it is scripted by now):
I'm assuming that /home/darktable/darktable is the dir that git puts the clone into. All this should be done as a normal user! If you have been mixing normal user and root user make sure that the /home/darktable/darktable directory is removed before you do the following: To get a clean copy use: cd /home/darktable/ git clone https://github.com/darktable-org/darktable.git The above will not work if there is already a cloned version present. You need to remove the content from the darktable directory first. Normally you only do this once. But there are legitimate reason to do this more often. You also need the rawspeed module: git submodule init git submodule update To update an already present clone: cd /home/darktable/darktable git pull And update rawspeed: git submodule update To build: You need a clean build dir so: If present delete and then create a build directory: cd /home/darktable/darktable rm -rf build # ignore error of non-existing directory mkdir build cd build Run the cmake and make commands (most simple form shown): cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release .. make Install by running: sudo make install. To check version: /opt/darktable/bin/darktable --version Hope this helps. My output looks like: /opt/darktable/bin/darktable --version this is darktable 2.7.0+1954~g50ad5ba6c copyright (c) 2009-2019 johannes hanika darktable-...@lists.darktable.org compile options: bit depth is 64 bit normal build SSE2 optimized codepath enabled OpenMP support enabled OpenCL support disabled Lua support enabled, API version 5.0.2 Colord support enabled gPhoto2 support enabled GraphicsMagick support enabled OpenEXR support enabled Op Mon, 7 Oct 2019 22:17:17 +1100 Bruce Williams Schreef: > OK, so it seems that doing "sudo cmake...." was part of the solution. > That resulted in a completed log with no errors. > But I'm still on the same version I was on before. > 2.7.0 (and no string of characters after it, like I've seen in other > people's screenshots). > Which makes me think I have not refreshed from git correctly. > I've issued this command: > > git clone https://github.com/darktable-org/darktable.git > > The tail end of which shows: > > release-2.6.0rc0 > release-2.6.0rc1 > release-2.6.0rc2 > release-2.6.1 > release-2.6.2 > release-2.7.0 > > This makes me think I'm not seeing the daily builds. > Do I need some other git clone command in order to see the daily versions? > Sorry for sounding like a complete noob.
