Re: [Emc-developers] RTAI Package Building Failure
I mostly figured this out, both the docs issue and the module building issue. As for docs, the `nodocs` option is completely ignored. When I fixed that, I get: # some clean-up rm -f /home/ntu/linuxcnc/debian/tmp/usr/share/doc/linuxcnc/examples/sample-configs/*/*position*.txt make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/ntu/linuxcnc' debian/rules override_dh_installdocs-arch make[1]: Entering directory '/home/ntu/linuxcnc' # Sample configs go in `usr/share/doc/linuxcnc` (not # `.../doc/linuxcnc`) because that's where the # `linuxcnc` launcher script looks for them, and that's # inconvenient to change. dh_installdocs --doc-main-package=linuxcnc --package=linuxcnc install -m0755 -d debian/linuxcnc/usr/share/doc/linuxcnc install -p -m0644 debian/copyright debian/linuxcnc/usr/share/doc/linuxcnc/copyright mkdir -p debian/linuxcnc/usr/share/doc/linuxcnc mv debian/linuxcnc/usr/share/doc/linuxcnc/examples debian/linuxcnc/usr/share/doc/linuxcnc mv: cannot stat 'debian/linuxcnc/usr/share/doc/linuxcnc/examples': No such file or directory make[1]: *** [debian/rules:88: override_dh_installdocs-arch] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/ntu/linuxcnc' make: *** [debian/rules:43: binary] Error 2 dpkg-buildpackage: error: fakeroot debian/rules binary subprocess returned exit status 2 So I'm leaving the always-on documentation build alone for now. As for the failing modules, the problem is that when you build LinuxCNC Debian packages, you're in the top directory of LinuxCNC, _not_ the src directory. In linuxcnc/src/Makefile, the value of M is $(PWD) however when you build Debian packages, this value now needs to be M="$(PWD)/src" How to conditionally set M=$(PWD) vs. M=$(PWD)/src depending on whether building a Debian package or not is beyond me, but that's the issue.

Re: [Emc-developers] RTAI Package Building Failure
What on the command line do you pass to trigger building LinuxCNC against RTAI? I'll need the full ./debian/configure stuff and the dpkg-buildpackage strings and whatever else is required.

Re: [Emc-developers] RTAI Package Building Failure
I have hardly any experience writing Debian packages, and the ones for LinuxCNC are quite complicated. I will try building your tree on my Debian system soon and see if I can help at all. I hope someone else can chime in. Alec ___ Emc-developers mailing list Emc-developers@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-developers

Just a quick run-in-place install for testing. Yes, I have been building and running RIP with RTAI continuously. Compiling works fine, it’s (fairly) clearly something not quite right in the debian folder. ___ Emc-developers mailing list Emc-developers@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-developers
Re: [Emc-developers] RTAI Package Building Failure
I have no idea where your problem might be coming from but I'm guessing it might be missing the "M" argument. i.e. $(PYTHON) modsilent.py $(MAKE) KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS=$(moduledir)/Module.symvers -C $(KERNELDIR) M=$(PWD) CC=$(CC) V=$(BUILD_VERBOSE) modules For the record, I have been able to build and run LinuxCNC against RTAI GNU11 and the new libm-kbuild branch by doing a classic ./configure rip install. Your problem must be stemming from the debian/ directory in LinuxCNC. As a sanity check, have you done the same to ensure your RTAI environment is all good? Just a quick run-in-place install for testing. Alec ___ Emc-developers mailing list Emc-developers@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-developers
[Emc-developers] RTAI Package Building Failure
I reverted the change which removed the ability to build RTAI packages (https://github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/commit/6f285604ac1a1b58b2d65d5904ffec3998a833ef ) and I have created a new branch to build RTAI debs ( https://github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/tree/andypugh/2.9_rtai ) However I am not getting a successful build: See: https://paste.debian.net/1295890/ I can see what the issue is, I think. The system uses a Makefile in usr/src/linux-headers. (KBuild?) to build the modules, and that it being passed a too-short path: scripts/Makefile.build:42: /home/andypugh/linuxcnc-dev/Makefile: No such file or directory Note that the /src/ is missing from the file path. I have got further by adding a softlink to the Makefile in that spot, but then it fails with /objects/ Does anyone know what needs to change to modify that path? -- atp "A motorcycle is a bicycle with a pandemonium attachment and is designed for the especial use of mechanical geniuses, daredevils and lunatics." — George Fitch, Atlanta Constitution Newspaper, 1912 ___ Emc-developers mailing list Emc-developers@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-developers

And that is still required a/o yesterdays update to master. I still have to use file->open if I want to get the gcode I just edited 20 seconds ago. My conclusion is that there is a cache someplace that is not being invalidated by the file->edit call. And only the file->open forces a re-read of the dirs contents. The time lag, is the dir sort as the instant files name is vise-screw6.ngc and scrolling to the end in one mouse motion is foiled by the need to keep the mouse motion /ON/ the slider.

[Emc-developers] adding library requirement to pyvcp_widgets
Hello I am working on pyvcp_widgets, esp the bar widget. I added a 'style' that is extreme simplistic, its just a single line with a user defined 'thumb' ( thumb is old school for the indicator that moves along the length of the bar ) Anyways, rather than try to guess what shapes to allow, I added a tag to the xml 'dwgf' ( dwgf for the drawing file, a tkinter polygon designed by user) for example "emptyDiamond.py"https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-developers
