Hello!

I want to create harbour binary for Kanotix distribution from latest sources. I try to connect to harbour CVS with Tortoise but it is not working.

Where I can download sources that you use
for May 2006 Harbour binaries?

Thanks, Roman

P.S. Do you plan to release trial version of FLH?

Hello!

CVS is working! It had to change CVSROOT to
:pserver:anonymous@harbour-project.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/harbour-project

Roman,

Glad to know you got it working. Yes, Sourceforge announce such change some weeks ago.

No, not by now.

Hello!

Somebody/something removed me from harbour mailing list
so I missed that sourceforge announcement. I re-subscribed today!

BTW, is there a simple tutorial how to build harbour from source
in Linux (Debian: kernel 2.6.16.16, gcc 4.0.3-3)? Where do I
start?

Thanks, Roman

Roman,

Yes, there have been some problems with the mailing list.

Use make_rpm.sh, it works fine.

Hello!

Are you sure that make_rpm.sh should work fine in Debian,
which is not RPM based?

Thanks, Roman

Roman,

Have you tried it ?

Hello!

Yep! It stops with message

Code: Select all | Expand

If you want to build Harbour compiler
you have to install the folowing RPM files:
make gcc binutils bison flex bash ncurses ncurses-devel

Anyhow, I installed missing parts using apt-get, created Harbour using ./make_tgz.sh ét voila - here is my first Linux app:
