I would like to start a discussion about 'true' source package.

I believe that at this moment, we are close to the ability to build U++ on most modern posix system with X11.

Please check the latest version, especially if you have anything else than ubuntu or even linux Wink

I believe we do not need ./configure; the only reason I can see for that is warning about missing libraries - if somebody is willing to create such script, I would be happy to add it.

BTW, to resolve problems with different directory structures, I think one possible solution is to put ALL possible paths to include/lib lists - am I right? Smile

What is sort of missing is 'make install'.

I guess 'make' should call external script there; and my initial plan is as follows:

- if it is run as root, it would install into /usr/local

- if not, it would install into '~'; if there is 'bin' in '~', put theide there, otherwise to '~/'.

Any more ideas?
