[build] Updates to Makefile
- Truncate descriptions
!211 (merged)
Copied from the description inSome things to do/discuss
-
There is a debian directory with build stuff. But there is also
branding/templates/debian
. I think the debian dir is not used anymore. I deleted the directory and ranmake vendor
andmake build
(on Arch Linux) - that worked. Can we delete the directory? -
As you are responsible for Mac/Windows: there are Ansible scripts in
scripts/ansible/macos/site.yaml
. They also contain qt5. Do we want to update (and test)? Or remove the whole thing? -
In
gui/build.sh
there is also something with qt5 (it's Windows) - Can you fix it?
QMAKE="`pwd`/../../mxe/usr/x86_64-w64-mingw32.static/qt5/bin/qmake"
-
There is an
install_go
target in the Makefile. It is not called/documented. We currently only need it for Debian 12. But theadd-apt-repository ppa:longsleep/golang-backports
command failed (see above). How to handle that? We can remove it from the Makefile and update the docs (abouth Debian) -
In the Makefile, there are two qt5 occurrences with Mac. Can you fix this?
dependsDarwin:
@brew install git golang make qt5
#@brew install --default-names gnu-sed
@brew link qt5
-
There is a directory
branding/thirdparty/qt5
with a filebuild-qt5-static.sh
. It's not used (if I grep) or documented. Can we delete it? -
.github/workflows/nightly.yaml
contains some qt5 occurrences (Windows/Mac). Can you fix that? -
There are some qt5 occurrences in docs/*. For me we have a lot of outdated documentation we don't use. I think we should create an issue and check all the docs in the repo. Then fix the docs what we find necessary and remove the rest.

7:There's a barebones binary that launches the same backend that the qt5 client uses.

32:* Convert snap to use a qt5 base (so that updates are kept small).
