compilation settings

Hi there,

I'm new to this list and to linux as well.
I recently installed an ubuntu distribution (7.10), this is how I
discovered Tomboy, which is a nice software!

As a windows developer, I'm lost in the linux world, so I'm asking some
help:
I installed MonoDevelop and tried to compile Tomboy in terminal
(transcript of session follows).

~/svn-external/tomboy is where I installed the sources from the repository
http://svn.gnome.org/svn/tomboy/trunk

Is it the right way to compile Tomboy?
Now I don't know what to do. Please help!
Thank you in advance!

Awesome!  You might want to upgrade to 8.04, which was just released.
It should make it easier for you to build the latest versions of
popular software.  But you should be able to build Tomboy on 7.10.

Hi Antoine,

All the information you need is right here (please read carefully):

http://live.gnome.org/Tomboy/Developers

After following the compiling instructions once, you should be able to
build in MonoDevelop.  Occasionally, as things change in the Tomboy
build infrastructure, files are added, etc, you will have to rerun
./autogen.sh.

Note that your choice of --prefix is very important.  If you want to
overwrite your exisiting installation, you would want to use
--prefix=/usr.

Your output indicates that you need to install gnome-common.  Running
`sudo apt-get build-dep tomboy` (as mentioned in the instructions I
linked to) may bring that in for you.

This is standard for building most software in Linux.  If you have any
other questions, feel free to bug us here or in #tomboy!

Sandy

(Please make sure to reply-all so the whole list benefits)

Tomboy does not currently run on Windows.  It is our plan to have this
fixed during the current development cycle.  So the answer to your
question is that you can make it run on XP by joining the development
effort!  :-)  Check out our roadmap (which links to a few details)

Cheers,
Sandy

That is where I saw you where the Win32 coordinator.
If I'm not misunderstanding, some parts will be win32 specific.
I'll be happy to port some of these parts. Could you direct me to the
right place?
Is there someone who manage to compile Tomboy on a window platform?

Cheers!
