QSSTV-5.2d compiling

QSSTV-5.2d compiling

[David]

Hi All...have had great problems with compiling QSSTV-5.2d on Fedora 
Core 2 and Mandrake 9.2 or 10......I found it wouldnt compile at 
"sstvparam.ccp"...found the alternate copy of this on the net and 
overwrote the origional.....that compiled ok.....the next problem was 
with 'zoomform.cpp'....chased all over the net and finally found a 
qsstv-5.2d.diff.gz file used in Debian for QSSTV.......noted that there 
was mention of using 'touch' on the 'zoomform.ui' file .....patched the 
origional qsstv-5.2d.tar.gz after untaring.....still no joy......then 
went and had a look in the '/debian/rules' file and saw the lines under 
build.....used the following command in the qsstv-5.2d dir after 
untaring it.....
touch qsstv/configform.ui qsstv/ftpform.ui qsstvrecform.ui 
qsstv/zoomform.ui qsstv/freqform.ui qsstv/posform.ui qsstv/textselect.ui
then ./configure && make  no more error problems...su then make install....
great now i have QSSTV up and running.....

Hope this helps anyone who has had problems......the touch command could 
be written into the configure system somewhere but i dont know how to do 
it....

Thac has working rpm spec files for this. AND.....he uses a for loop (if I
recall correctly) to accomplish what is needed. <- You might like to check
this out.

Thanks, David, you were a great help.  I had just downloaded qsstv
when your note came through.  To summarize for others, using David's
info to get qsstv running:

   - Go to http://eu.hurd.gnuab.org/pub/debian/pool/main/q/qsstv/

   - Download qsstv_5.2d.orig.tar.gz and qsstv_5.2d-8+cfg.diff.gz

   - After untarring/gzipping, patch -p 0 < qsstv_5.2d-8+cfg.diff

   - touch qsstv/configform.ui qsstv/ftpform.ui qsstvrecform.ui \
     qsstv/zoomform.ui qsstv/freqform.ui qsstv/posform.ui \
     qsstv/textselect.ui

   - And you're all set to configure, make, & install.

73,
