I am stumped. I am building Gnucash 3.7 on Debian Linux 9.9. I have built several versions in the past using cmake, make, and checkinstall.
I am following https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Building_On_Linux to the letter. - Made a build directory, and cd-ed into it. - cmake ../gnucash-3.7 <- location of my source files. (No need to set -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX as I am using the default /usr/local) - make - sudo checkinstall -D --install=no The failure occurs when running checkinstall. I get the following error: Install the project... -- Install configuration: "" -- Installing: /usr/local/share/doc/gnucash/AUTHORS CMake Error at cmake_install.cmake:36 (file): file INSTALL cannot find "/home/mike/builds/gnucash- 3.7/ChangeLog.1999". There is, indeed, a valid file at /home/mike/builds/gnucash- 3.7/ChangeLog.1999. I cannot figure out why checkinstall cannot see it. All files in this directory are owned by me, so sudo checkinstall should be able to work. It's got to be something simple. Any thoughts? Thanks!
