Hello,
Sorry for the delay, but I needed to manually validate the mail as you
aren't subscribed.
> Over Christmas I promised myself a couple of days to build ghdl from
source, following
http://sourceforge.net/p/ghdl-updates/wiki/build%20ghdl%20from%20source%20on%20Linux/.
It seemed like the first step to learning enough simulation, ada etc
to be one-day useful on the project. I still have some way to go. For
example, for the next iteration I think the 'g' in gmake might be
significant and I'm still tripping over paths.
Anyway, I'm doing the build in a vagrant container which is great for trying
out different linux dependencies. This leads to my discussion query;
* Is there already a public vagrant box or definition, including all the
right dependencies? It would be a huge leg-up for me as a new joiner.
No, as far as I know.
If there's no such vagrant box, it would be great to create one. Two options:
* Uploading/downloading the built vagrant box .. would chew GB bandwidth but
would have the advantage of being independent of the developer's desktop o/s.
* More reasonable would be git files/scripts. There's already a build
standard script (build_gcc), but this way it's runnable and repeatable with all
dependencies.
Feel free to investigate that, I have never used vagrant boxes.
Regards,
Tristan.
