Building a Xenomai Runtime PackageThis howto describes building the xenomai-runtime package from git. The Xenomai runtime package is needed by the Xenomai threads versions of LinuxCNC (xenomai-kernel and xenomai-user). See this page for more info: XenomaiKernel This recipe was developed on Ubuntu Precise, amd64 arch, but will probably work for other versions of Debian-like distros and other arches. It assumes you want to build a specific release. Building from the head of the master branch will need some tweaks to the below procedure. Prerequisites ==Set variables needed for the build === Adjust the following values according to your needs. # Which xenomai release to use. Stable version here: # http://download.gna.org/xenomai/stable/ XENO_VERSION=2.6.2 # Your name and email for the commit FULLNAME="John Doe" EMAIL="jdoe@example.com" install prerequisite packagesThese may not be enough; git-buildpackage will print a list if more are needed. # package build prereqs sudo apt-get install devscripts debhelper dh-kpatches findutils # git build prereqs sudo apt-get install git-core git-buildpackage download patchThis patch fixes a problem with the build. It will be sent upstream and hopefully integrated.
