Jacques,
*First of all: I noticed you are part of darktable's documentation team. In* *that capacity do you commit your work/changes, using git, to the repositoryin any way?* I know NOTHING about how git works! :) Yes, I'm helping with the documentation, but only in a copy-editing sense. And that input is being facilitated by adding comments to the threaded conversation on github. Someone else (Pascal, I think) then merges my edits with the master. *I'm asking because I've been assuming that you only want to get the latestdevelopment version on your linux box to play around with.* Correct. *Are you by any chance pulling darktable from outside the main branche?* No idea! :) *Have you tried to install a 2.7.0 .deb package in the near past byany chance?* Nope. Because of your mention about 'git pull' saying 'already up to date': It's not clear to me if you tried my instructions or have been working with your existing copy and used mine as a rough reference only. Tried both. Followed all of your instructions, as well as tried combining your instructions with the instructions found at https://redmine.darktable.org/projects/darktable/wiki/Building_darktable_20 *Starting clean might be a good idea (that is assuming you haven't alreadytried).* Yeah, tried that, too. I have just followed your cmd line output to the letter. Everything appeared the same for me as you got. Once I got to the end of it all, I ran ./build.sh It failed. Because I'm a numpty who didn't put sudo at the head of the cmake command. :) Once I did add sudo, it worked! Thanks heaps for your help! Much appreciated. :) Is there a reasonably approachable set of instructions that I can read up on all this? Seems to me there's a lot of incantations, spells, and dancing around in the moonlight to make this shit happen, and I don't understand what all the instructions actually mean. But I'd like to learn.

To: Bruce Williams <stu...@audio2u.com> Cc: darktable-user <darktable-user@lists.darktable.org> Hi Bruce, We basically have the same setup; a production user and a different test version user. Mint is an up to date version, no problems there. Oh, wow I see mention of 2018 in the copyright message output you posted! Definitely not what you want to see..... First of all: I noticed you are part of darktable's documentation team. In that capacity do you commit your work/changes, using git, to the repository in any way? I'm asking because I've been assuming that you only want to get the latest development version on your linux box to play around with. I myself am in this category. Are you by any chance pulling darktable from outside the main branche? (Don't ask me how to do or check that, that is beyond my git knowledge). The git clone command I gave will not do this btw. It will clone the main branche. Secondly: Have you tried to install a 2.7.0 .deb package in the near past by any chance? I'm not aware of there being one, but I just want to cover the bases. Because of your mention about 'git pull' saying 'already up to date': It's not clear to me if you tried my instructions or have been working with your existing copy and used mine as a rough reference only. Starting clean might be a good idea (that is assuming you haven't already tried). After a git clone the local branche is definitely not up-to-date when it comes to rawspeed! In my previous mail I showed the commands and not the output that is shown on my side of things. Might come in handy as a reference: This is shown on my box when I start clean: /data/General/Git/darktable $ id uid=1004(jade) gid=1004(jade) groups=1004(jade),27(sudo),10000(jd) /data/General/Git/darktable $ cd .. /data/General/Git $ rm -rf darktable/ /data/General/Git $ git clone git://github.com/darktable-org/darktable.git Cloning into 'darktable'... remote: Enumerating objects: 173514, done. remote: Total 173514 (delta 0), reused 0 (delta 0), pack-reused 173514 Receiving objects: 100% (173514/173514), 342.21 MiB | 21.09 MiB/s, done.

I'll leave it at this for the moment. Give the above a try and see if you get similar results.
