This will generate a 'config.vars' file, which you can then +include in your package. Then when you want to build the game, put this +file the directory pointed to by $BUILD_WORK (default is the current +directory), and do + ./build.sh uqm reprocess_config +to generate all the configuration information for the build, and then + ./build.sh uqm +to build the game, and + ./build.sh uqm install +to install it. + +You may wish to set the environment variable BUILD_WORK to a directory +where the files created in the configuration and build process should be +stored. That way, the source tree will remain clean and no write access +to it is required. + + |
