Aside for some warnings I got to compile vegastrike.
However the ending message was
[100%] Building CXX object CMakeFiles/vegastrike.dir/src/python/briefing_wrapper.cpp.o
[100%] Linking CXX executable vegastrike
[100%] Built target vegastrike
cp: cannot stat {edited_home_dir}/build/Vega-Strike-Engine-Source-0.5.3/build/{vegastrike,vegaserver,setup/vssetup,objconv/mesh_tool}': No such file or directory
enon@ws-0:~/build/Vega-Strike-Engine-Source-0.5.3$ bin/vegastrike
bash: bin/vegastrike: No such file or directory
:~/build/Vega-Strike-Engine-Source-0.5.3$ ls ./bin
:~/build/Vega-Strike-Engine-Source-0.5.3$
The built binaries were found in the "/Vega-Strike-Engine-Source-0.5.3/build" folder, however trying to run from {VS}/build/vegastrike produced this
$ build/vegastrike
Registering codec ogg.
In path /{edited_home_dir}/Vega-Strike-Engine-Source-0.5.3/build
Vega Strike

GOT SUBDIR ARG =
Found MODDIR = /mods
USING HOMEDIR : {edited_home_dir}.vegastrike As the home directory
CONFIGFILE - No config found in home :{edited_home_dir}/.vegastrike/vegastrike.config
CONFIGFILE - No config found in data dir : /vegastrike.config
CONFIG FILE NOT FOUND !!!
Panic exit - no configuration
so I tried running
$ build/setup/vssetup
and got
Error: Failed to find Version.txt anywhere.
looking further I found {VS}/data empty (not mentioned in README.md)
So I unzipped "Assets-Production-0.5.3.zip" and copied everthing from inside the "Assets-Production-0.5.3" folder into the {VS}/data foleder
BTW could you change the name from "Assets-Production-0.5.3" to data to avoid confusion.
Both " build/setup/vssetup" and "build/vegastrike" execute
"config.log" not found

In such a huge codebase, gcc sometimes gets confused with multi-threaded compilation. In such cases, cd build and make -j1 to see if the problem comes from that.
Help with codebase maintenance is always welcome

make completed correctly, I tracked the problem to the last line {VS_root}}/sh/vsbuild.sh
Code: Select all
cp $BUILD_DIR/{vegastrike,vegaserver,setup/vssetup,objconv/mesh_tool} $BIN_DIR
I toyed around a bit trying to solve the porblem ( before moving on to actually testing game

Debian uses "Dash" instead "Bash" for normal shell scripts via /bin/sh. maybe this is specific to Dash.
And/or possibly some strange function on how cp behaves in a shell script. From what few examples I looked it looks fine. I tried using -R (recursive) option to no avail.
I even tried executing this line from direct cmdline. still nogo.
I'll kill some brain cells over the weekend on this

The safest way would be to split this line into one cp per file.

I was right about suspecting bash/dash difference. I had thought about splitting up like you said.
but if you change the " #!/bin/sh" ---> "#! /bin/bash" the script euns correctly
See
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/572 ... 02#5725402
for a better explination
"BUT I Got all these other sh files"
Code: Select all
grep -rl '#!/bin/sh' ./ | xargs sed -i 's\#!/bin/sh\#!/bin/bash\g'
will change all sh files recursiely (i am using this trick to change cs_*.h related #includes to respective Python #includes)

Thank you for the info, I stumbled on this on Ubuntu too.

I think the better command would be:
Code: Select all
grep --exclude-dir='.git/' -rl '#!/bin/sh' ./ | xargs sed -i 's\#!/bin/sh\#!/bin/bash\g'
Just so you won't change anything in the .git/ files

well changing /bin/sh to /bin/bash should run just fine - even .git/ files
it would be the same as if /bin/sh pointed to /bin/bash, as some do
It realy is a small point when the 0.5.3 GitHub branch gets stomped upon
