To Build From Source: Xiphos...For Success, What's Needed?
I would like to build Xiphos.
When I have tried in the past it failed, I'm not sure why, that was awhile ago.
The instructions from: xiphos.org/download/
Check out the current GIT source tree with:
git clone https://github.com/crosswire/xiphos.git
Then build under Linux using:
cd xiphos
cmake -S . -B build -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr -DGTKHTML=ON
make -C build
sudo make -C build install
Seems so easy...but when you look at the dependencies at github...
