Обсуждение: Compiling PgAdmin 1.8.x on Debian Lenny AMD64 ?

Hi,

I tried to compile the source distribution on Debian Lenny AMD64 to
create a Debian package, which failed.

Running "dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot" in the root of the source
distribution gave the following error:

"dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot
tail: cannot open `debian/changelog' for reading: No such file or directory
dpkg-buildpackage: failure: tail of debian/changelog gave error exit status 1"


Running "dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot" in the pkg directory  of the
source distribution errors that suggested that there should be a
wxWidgets 2.7.0-1 source (?) installation somewhere in the PgAdmin
source tree, which is not the case.

I have a (compiled) version of wxWidgets 2.8.0 installed from a
repository maintained by the wxWidgets people (http://apt.wxwidgets.org/
etch-wx main). 

Is it possible to build a .deb file from the source distribution, using
my own version of wxWidgets or do I have to fall back to "./configure ;
make make install"?

TIA

Nop: it keep complaining about an embedded wxWidgets:

Life would be easier without the wxWidgets maintainer's silly dispute with the wxWidgets people ...

Why's it referring to wxWidgets 2.7.0? It should be built against 2.8.x.

I will take care of this at the end of the week (friday), OK?

Hi,
i have followed the instructions and the build and install worked fine for
me after installing the stated dependencies (on Ubuntu 7.10 - amd64).

Furthermore, i managed to get pgadmin3 it to work fine after install (at
least as far as creating a new table, column, key, inserting a row and
selecting it out - all against postgreSQL 8.3.0). -which is a lot further
than i could go with the previous version.

Thanks for your work and clear instructions!

As a user of PostgreSQL for one day, and (2 week) novice of *nix world, i am
ecstatic at the documentation and support that has enabled me to get this
far!

Let me know if there's anything i can provide that may be of use to you in
making this package available to everyone.

Regards,
RuiDC
