I'd have to agree with all this. I stopped trying to build FlightGear years ago because it is highly non-trivial. Having been involved in several large engineering and training simulations over the years, I can say that in my experience it's almost always non-trivial. :-) But, I think that if some effort was expended, that process could be improved and made simpler or more automated for FlightGear. I'd like to see the build process formalized for building under: 1) Linux 2) Cygwin 3) MSVC++ (using the latest Express compiler freely downloadable) 4) Mac There ought to be some kind of install wizard for the source code, and an interdependency checker, or similar.
