This 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.
This builds either the master branch or a release. As of this writing, debian package building is broken in v2.6.2, but fixed in master.
Adjust the following values according to your needs.
# Version of xenomai release to use. Stable versions listed here: # http://download.gna.org/xenomai/stable/ #XENO_VERSION=2.6.2 # broken, so... # ** Building from master, so bump minor version and add 'pre' XENO_VERSION=2.6.3pre
# Xenomai package release; this should be bumped with each new release PKG_RELEASE=1
# If building from master, set this variable: MASTER_OPTS="--git-upstream-branch=master --git-upstream-tree=branch"
# Your name and email for the commit FULLNAME="John Doe" EMAIL="jdoe@example.com"
