RE: [Ltib] qtopia package build failure while building ltib from CVS (Savannah)

[Daniel Widyanto]

Hi Stuart,

I added that one ("Copy the fonts or Qtopia won't run"). Actually without the 
fonts, the compilation will succeed, but the qtopia will crash (it will return 
to command prompt after I run it, with some error message if I'm not mistaken). 

Regarding the X library, I partially remember adding Xlib-dev package to my 
Ubuntu 9.10 to build Qtopia, but I cannot remember exactly which library that 
I've added.

Anyway, Rajesh Marathe has succeed compiling Qtopia 2 for his board. So, we'll 
know whether this thing really works or not on other platform =)

Regards,
-daniel

Hi Hamilton,

Nothing significant has been changed in qtopia-4 lately, but I don't 
normally build this (not one of the packages I added) so am not best to 
comment.

I've just tried a rebuild of qtopia (2) for imx27 and it build without 
any problems (I do have X and a number of other non-default packages 
enabled).  My host distro is Dreamlinux 3.5 (Debian Lenny).  I'm 
guessing in my build environment that directory got created by the 
Qtopia build due to some configure/environment test.  I'm not really 
sure why that clause was added (the comment is: "Copy the fonts, or 
Qtopia won't run", but I would have expected Qtopia's build system to 
take care of that.  As a hack (maybe someone understand how to build 
Qtopia properly?) I've checked in this patch to qtopia.spec which should 
relieve the symptom:
