Problems

  • A lot of problems when trying to build on MacOS are mentioned here: Sess14-Buildbot on Cairo
  • The first time the command GIT CLONE works because there is nothing before that execution but the second run should be an update instead of a checkout. What could be the proper GIT command to have as the step?
I have decided to remove the checked out code and checkout the trunk before each build
  • I need to do SUDO MAKE INSTALL, but this requires user's input which breaks the automated concept. What could be the right step?
Used ./configure --prefix=/path/to/somewhere to avoid building somewhere where I require to have sudo privileges

Notes

These notes are for learning purposes and documentation

Feb. 15th release

Where will I put code and screenshots?

What has been released this week:

Steps to meet requirements

  • sudo apt-get install buildbot
  • sudo apt-get install git-core //This is to get the version control that cairo uses, it is called GIT

Steps to make it happen

  • buildbot create-master ~/cairomaster
  • Put the master.cfg to the the created master
  • buildbot create-slave ~/cairoslave localhost:9876 cairoslave
  • buildbot start ~/cairomaster
  • buildbot start ~/cairoslave
  • firefox http://localhost:8020 //This is to be able to see the results of the build

Build Cairo manually

make[2]: Entering directory `/home/armen/sandbox/cairo2/pixman/pixman' test -z "/usr/local/lib" || /bin/mkdir -p "/usr/local/lib" /bin/bash ../libtool --mode=install /usr/bin/install -c 'libpixman-1.la' '/usr/local/lib/libpixman-1.la' /usr/bin/install -c .libs/libpixman-1.so.0.9.6 /usr/local/lib/libpixman-1.so.0.9.6 /usr/bin/install: cannot remove `/usr/local/lib/libpixman-1.so.0.9.6': Permission denied make[2]: *** [install-libLTLIBRARIES] Error 1

  • sudo make install //I had to use SUDO
  • whereis libpixman-1
  • cd ../cairo && ./autogen.sh
  • ./configure
  • make
  • make install //the same problem with SUDO

make[2]: Entering directory `/home/armen/sandbox/cairo2/cairo/src' test -z "/usr/local/lib" || /bin/mkdir -p "/usr/local/lib" /bin/bash ../libtool --mode=install /usr/bin/install -c 'libcairo.la' '/usr/local/lib/libcairo.la' /usr/bin/install -c .libs/libcairo.so.2.14.0 /usr/local/lib/libcairo.so.2.14.0 /usr/bin/install: cannot create regular file `/usr/local/lib/libcairo.so.2.14.0': Permission denied

  • sudo make install

Running the tests and getting an index.html file with them

  • make test //takes long time
  • cd test && make html
  • firefox index.html
