GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 707106
Aisleriot doesn't build "out of the box" due to PySol-related error
Last modified: 2013-09-14 12:28:23 UTC
I'm seeing the following error when building Aisleriot: $ git clone -q git://git.gnome.org/aisleriot && cd aisleriot && ./autogen.sh [...] checking for requested card theme formats... svg,pysol checking for PySol card themes base path... configure: error: When enabling the PySol card theme format, you must specify the PySol card themes base path. IMHO autogen.sh without flags should "just work", and so by default Aisleriot shouldn't require the PySol card theme. JHBuild also expects that projects build without any special flags, and chokes when trying to build Aisleriot.
The right paths for common distros are available in configure.ac, just uncommon distros have no defaults. Not a bug, IMHO.
