I would like to included Gem in the Pd-extended auto-builds. Anyone up for trying it out? The compile farm is already automatically syncing to the pd-gem CVS every night. Another option is to import a snapshot into the pure-data CVS and build it from there.
i prefer the former (pulling pd-gem instead of mirroring it into pure-data).
anyhow, i am "up for trying it out", which steps are required on my side?
I think the best way to go about it is to add "gem" and "gem_install" targets to packages/Makefile or packages/linux_make/Makefile. Ideally it would go in the first one since that's used on all platforms. The second option is for things that are platform- specific. Then that "gem" and "gem_install" targets just need to be added to the "all" and "install" targets.
Does ./configure work on all platforms? That would make life much easier. Also, since the WinXP auto-build machine is MinGW-based, it would be quite handy to have ./configure working on MinGW also.
I am working on getting the auto-builds to report failures via email, so people know when they broke something. I am thinking that these emails would then go to pd-dev.
