Linux SVN compilation

[erzapito]

I'm trying to compile the SVN version on linux and I get this error:

 * [UFO] src/qcommon/common.c
src/qcommon/common.c:38:31: error: ../../svnversion.h: No existe el fichero ó directorio <-- "File not found"
src/qcommon/common.c: In function ‘Mem_TagMalloc’:
src/qcommon/common.c:1253: warning: format ‘%i’ expects type ‘int’, but argument 3 has type ‘size_t’
make: *** [debug-linux-gnu-x86_64/client/qcommon/common.o] Error 1

Any idea why this happens?

erzapito,

It looks like the build system might not be creating this file at the moment even though it is needed for compilation. As a work-around, create a file svnversion.h in your root trunk directory with a single line as the content:

Code: [Select]

#define SVN "4557+"

You can safely ignore any warnings generated during compile.

PS: feel free to drop by on our IRC chat channel: #ufo:ai on server freenode if you run into more issues, there is quite often someone there who can help (or failing that stick to these forums).

Our build system expert has now fixed it so svnversion.h is no longer required to compile the game. So ignore the above workaround, SVN up and try again
