[GNC] Linux build

[David H]

Hi Jimmy R,

That's pretty much the steps outlined at
https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Building_On_Linux - see below.

Cheers David H.

Build using Cmake and Make

mkdir build-gnucash-4.<x>                 # create the build directory
- Note: Named to identify the source since it is not necessarily
within the source directory.cd build-gnucash-4.<x>
# change into the build directory
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$HOME/opt  ../gnucash-4.<x>     # As
shown this will install in the opt directory in /home/<user>.
make                                      # builds the program and
associated libraries
make install                              # prefix with sudo if you do
install to /usr/local or /opt as admin privileges are required.

Build using CMake and Ninja

mkdir build-gnucash-4.<x>                # create the build directory
- Note: Named to identify the source since it is not within the source
directory.cd build-gnucash-4.<x>                   # change into the
build directory
cmake -GNinja -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$HOME/opt ../gnucash-4.<x>     #
As shown this will install in the opt directory in /home/<user>.
ninja                                    # builds the program and
associated libraries
ninja install                            # prefix with sudo if you do
install to /usr/local or /opt as admin privileges are required.
