Category: Compile-Time Group: SVN version Status: Open Resolution: Accepted >Priority: 7 Private: No Submitted By: dooglus (dooglus) Assigned to: Robert B. Quattlebaum, Jr. (darco) Summary: synfigstudio can't find icons - bad value for IMAGE_DIR Initial Comment: I built synfig and synfigstudio from the current svn sources using Debian Unstable. The config.h which was generated by ./configure when building synfigstudio has this line: #define IMAGE_DIR "/pixmaps" This results in synfigstudio being unable to locate any of the graphics (for the splash screen, and the icons, for instance) unless I export an environment variable: export SYNFIG_ROOT=/usr/local Doing that works around the problem. Note that when I ran 'bootstrap' I saw warnings about the versions of autoconf and automake I was using. I just tried running 'bootstrap' again to copy and paste the warning here, but they no longer appear. Now all I see is: bootstrap: Using autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.60a bootstrap: Using automake (GNU automake) 1.7.9 but I'm pretty sure yesterday it was telling me something like "the version of autoconf is wrong; got 2.60a, expected 2.59(something) - bootstrap may fail". bootstrap didn't appear to fail, so I ignored the warning and carried on. I mention it now because maybe it's these 'wrong versions of auto*' which caused IMAGE_DIR to be set incorrectly. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Paul Wise (pabs3) Date: 2007-02-01 05:31 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=35028 Originator: NO About the IMAGE_DIR thing, that was caused in SVN r180 as part of an attempt at better relocatability. Fixing this attempt using the same scheme as I wrote for nsis is on my TODO list and is a blocker for the next release IMO. BOOTSTRAP MUST DIE!!! jebus I hate that thing (also a blocker, but for practical reasons - make dist is broken, probably because of bootstrap). I hope to replace it with autoreconf at some point. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=757416&aid=1568925&group_id=144022 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
