Re: [Denemo-devel] Building GTK+ to be relocatable

[Jeremiah Benham]

Its funny that you mentioned all this as I was creating a "bundle" in gub for a 
linux target. I created a new installer that just simply puts everything in a 
diectory and then compresses it.

http://denemo.org/~jjbenham/gub/uploads/denemo-0.0.0-0.linux-x86.tar.xz

All you have to do is uncompress it and go into denemo-0.0.0 and 
./Launch_Denemo.sh. It is more for testing at the moment. Lilypond is not 
installed in it and the new changes to ./configure don't allow denemo to find 
my portmidi. There are also some font issues. I can apply these changes to the 
gtk3 branch but I may have the same problems. The advantage of this approach is 
that I can execute this "bundle" with a live disto.
