Compilation question
« on: March 04, 2008, 12:29:28 PM »

I usually try the daily CVS on a machine that, due to its hardware limitations (700 Mhz, 128Mb RAM) takes something like 2~3 Hours to compile the whole program.
I use this machine for power saving reasons. It runs amule daemon really well, and has enough space for a bunch of downloads. But sometimes i cannot afford to be 3 of the day's 24 Hours compiling. Not talking about the times that for some reason the compilation crashes, taht times, after 2 hours of code and more code of compiling stuff, for finally seeing an error messsage, i go mad!
I have anothe rmachine. Is an AMD 6000+ Dual Core, with 2 Gb RAM 667 Mhz. The compilation is reduced to 2~3 Minutes.
So i would REALLY appreciate if anyone can tell me a way to compile this CVS on the fast machine, for installing it on the slow one. I think is a far better idea than 3 daily hours of compilation.

I insist i would really appreciate some help on this subject, because i really like to try and report the bugs i find. (As you should probably realized already) :P

Thanks!

The "Slow" one in which i want to install, runs Ubuntu Server 7.10, while the "Fast" one , the one i want to use just for compiling, has Ubuntu 7.10 (The standard one)

Cheers!

In this case it doesn't matter as you use the same version on both computers (i.e. the same library versions are installed) and you can use binaries compiled on the new computer on the old one.
There might be problems with 32/64 bit, though.
