Did you? I just checked it and I can't find any working link for a snapshot anywhere I look. Either I'm missing something here or it's excessively borked.

IF you already have git installed, and have a mudlet git directory setup; just brows to the root folder and do

Code: Select all

git pull git://mudlet.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/mudlet/mudlet master
This should pull the most recent source, updating your local copy.

If you do not have a mudlet/git initialized directory, you should be able to do a

Code: Select all

git clone git://mudlet.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/mudlet/mudlet
and accomplish the same.

Never used git. I've just been using that link to directly download the tar.gz. Didn't see any reason to complicate matters when that method worked perfectly already.

EDIT: Meant to say thanks, I'm installing git, appreciate the help.

Ok, I did all the above, but still couldn't compile until I added dependencies hunspell, libhunspell-1.2-0, and libhunspell-dev. I also copied the hunspell souce folder into the /mudlet/src folder, though I'm not sure if this is necessary...

Edit: Also, the qmake folder seems to have moved in the QtSDK. It was in the QtSDK/Desktop/Qt/474/gcc/lib folder for me.

Edit 2: Oh, and if you're having weird problems, run "make distclean" before trying to recompile.

Edit 3: And, for some reason executing the compiled mudlet file from the file browser window causes mudelt to be unable to find some required lua files. I have to exec it with ./mudlet from a terminal window for it to work properly..

Note: After upgrading to Ubuntu 11.10, I had to create a soft link to liblua to allow the compile to work.

ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/liblua5.1.so /usr/local/lib/liblua.so

Adjust "x86_64-linux-gnu" as appropriate for your system (this is based on a 64bit version of ubuntu).
