| emerge / emerge.py is a tool to build the kde sources and its third party requirements on MS Windows.
| | #REDIRECT [[Guidelines and HOWTOs/Build from source/Windows]] |
| | |
| To start an emerge based install, checkout the sources from the svn-directory of emerge into a new directory, which we will call '''kderoot'''.
| |
| | |
| This can be accomplished with the following command:
| |
| <pre>svn co svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/trunk/kdesupport/kdewin32/emerge</pre>
| |
| | |
| Alternatively, you can checkout the sources using a program like [http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/ TortoiseSVN].
| |
| | |
| Be sure to use a copy of Subversion that was built on Windows so that checked-out files do not use UNIX line endings. If you check out with UNIX line endings, the ''patch'' program will fail when attempting to apply a patch whose line endings don't match the system's.
| |
|
| |
| Copy the file '''kdesettings-environment.bat''' into the folder '''kderoot\etc''', rename it to '''kdesettings.bat''' and change it according to your needs.
| |
| | |
| You can get 'some' help if you run: <pre>C:\kderoot\emerge\bin>emerge --help</pre>
| |
| | |
| Below the directory '''kderoot\emerge\portage''' you have the categories as subdirectories which contain individual packages.
| |
| | |
| To build every required package for e.g. '''kdebase''' enter '''emerge kdebase'''.
| |
| If you want to make a dry run, add the option '''-p''' to it.
| |
| | |
| emerge is mostly usable together with the kdewin-installer but we're currently still working on some packages which are packaged in a wrong way.
| |
| To use emerge with the installer, you have to change the '''directory_layout''' in the '''kdesettings.bat''' to '''installer''' (see that file for more detailed information).
