Trouble with build

[MammothJerk]

This is way more involved then i've ever been in compiling scripts and apps through python/perl/etc, so i'm way out of my depth.

I first ran into trouble with the activeperl installation, when downloading the .msi/.exe it does not include the Win32-Console package which seems to be required. on top of that i kept getting the It looks like you don't have either nmake.exe or dmake.exe on your PATH,so you will not be able to execute the commands from a Makefile. You can install dmake.exe with the Perl Package Manager by running: error even though i added visual studio to the PATH. I then just copied the nmake.exe over to perl64/site/bin and then i tested it from C:\ and it was indeed still picked up, yet while running the bat file i still ran into the above error. At this point i gave up on activeperl and switched to strawberry, changed up the .bat paths, and then ran it with no problems.

Now trying to run the LibTorrentBuild.bat i ran into the problem where b2.exe wasn't recognised. googled a bit and found out i had to run the bootstrap.bat from inside the boost directory to make this file appear. ran the .bat again and it finished with no hiccups.

now we come to the GTK3Build.bat where i'm stumped, not quite sure what i'm missing here.

been a bit of a trek getting to this point so i was hoping i could get some pointer, or else my journey ends here and no deluge 2 for me

if you need more information/full logs just let me know

The nmake issue you might have better luck adding it to your path manually vs the script, however remember any cmd/ps windows being used would need to be reopened to have the path update or even a OS restart.

Sorry I missed the b2 command part. Updating the instructions now.

The GTK3 issue I got that when a download had failed. For a few days recently the nasm site was down this maybe where you ran into an issue. gvsbuild appears to have a issue in their python code for handeling errors, other wise if you read the code that the error comes from you would see it is trying to print info on an error. irony? lol either way if i had to guess it was because a download failed, and likely nasm, their site has been back for a bit now id try again.

I believe i properly got the nasm-2.14.02-installer-x64.exe and running it seems to work just fine while installing.

I took a look through the .bat and was wondering what the "set MSYSPATH=C:\msys64\usr\bin" is supposed to be, i don't think anything i installed gave me this folder or any items. Also whats up with the references to the 2019 visual studio? i installed that too just incase.

im still getting the same error, heres the full log if it tells you anything.

[doadin]

sorry for the confusion, in the readme it says to download nasm this is for separate use outside of building GTK3, gvsbuild/gtk3 downloads its own copy for its use. as i mentioned before the error is coming up because of two things 1 the an error occurred with a file it downloaded whether or not that was with nasm or something else whether it it didnt have room to save it, idk.

The "SyntaxError" is an error made while trying to print the download error. Thats the ironic part, the syntax error is coming because the script tried to print details of a different error.(It went from one error right into another) The "tar.exe: release: Cannot stat: No such file or directory" part tells me though that the script tried to use tar on a file that doesn't exist. Why that file doesn't exist i don't know. Had the print worked we might have gotten that info.

[doadin]

msys is also a dependency I forgot to add to the list in readme ill add that as well.

The info about vs2019 is just a comment in CMD/bat REM is just a comment so all those lines are just information just in case someone using the script would want to change to vs2019 or another the info is there to do so. but in the execution of the script those lines do nothing.

I uninstalled everything and deleted all the folders, restarted my computer, installed everything again and unzipped all the archives to C:\, and then ran the .bats in order, now when i reach GTK3Build.bat i get an error that it cannot find build.py. Should i try to reinstall everything again or do you see where the problem is?

@MammothJerk

I have been having the same issues as you. Everything from the active perl not working and changing over to Strawberry to your latest post with the cannot find build.py.

[doadin]

"unzipped all the archives to C:" Did you do that or did you extract gvsbuild to C:\gtk-build\github ?

"unzipped all the archives to C:" Did you do that or did you extract gvsbuild to C:\gtk-build\github ?

I know you were talking to @MammothJerk, but here is what i have. Here is what i have C:\boost_1_70_0 C:\deluge-develop C:\gtk-build\github C:\libtorrent-RC_1_2 C:\msys64 C:\OpenSSL C:\Python\Python37 C:\Strawberry\perl C:\Program Files\NASM

also looks like there is a typo in your OpenSSLBuild.bat on line 4. cd C:\SpenSSL guessing that should be C:\OpenSSL

[doadin]

also looks like there is a typo in your OpenSSLBuild.bat on line 4. cd C:\SpenSSL guessing that should be C:\OpenSSL @Kraevin opps, corrected.

@MammothJerk @Kraevin Also I just made a lot of edits, please sync.

ye sorry i did indeed extract gvsbuild to C:\gtk-build\github

also looks like there is a typo in your OpenSSLBuild.bat on line 4. cd C:\SpenSSL guessing that should be C:\OpenSSL @Kraevin opps, corrected.

@MammothJerk @Kraevin Also I just made a lot of edits, please sync.

i edited that by myself in the bat so that didn't affect anything

I'll try it again and get back to ya

Deleted everything form the folders created by the .bat files, also deleted and re-downloaded all .zip files. GTK3Build.bat still fails, this time with new info

the first "if NOT exist "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Community\VC\Auxiliary\Build"" echo VS 2017 not found" is just the command being run you would see only a line "VS 2017 not found" if that was the error line however the line above "The syntax of the command is incorrect." is the error and that was a typo in the script i fixed that now.

alright new error again, i tried extracting gvsbuild-master to both C:\gtk-build\github\gvsbuild and C:\gtk-build\github neither worked but each gave a different error. i'm not sure which one to use since gvsbuild-master also has a subfolder named gvsbuild heres the log for C:\gtk-build\github\gvsbuild

[doadin]

i believe you extract subfolder named gvsbuild to C:\gtk-build\github\gvsbuild

[doadin]

build.py is in gvsbuild-master so i guess instead of extracting the folder in the zip extract the stuff inside the folder to C:\gtk-build\github\gvsbuild.

[doadin]

@MammothJerk fixed that error now. the fix is remove -v -d after build and put -d after build.py that was one of two edits i was supposed to do before but i got distracted and only did the other.

[doadin]

I feel like maybe I should use the gvsbuild-master folder since theres like three "gvsbuild" or w.e. folders... kinda makes it confusing which.

[MammothJerk]

Seems like i'm missing the pygobject dependency, and from what i can find it is only available for up to python version 3.4.

Build succeeded.

Seems like i'm missing the pygobject dependency, and from what i can find it is only available for up to python version 3.4.

Build succeeded.

Project(s) not built:
    pycairo

Missing dependecies:
    pygobject
Error: 2 project(s) missing ;(

C:\gtk-build\github\gvsbuild>

pygobject is part of the gtk3 build its saying its missing in order to build pycairo.(which both are needed for deluge) One of the changes i made to the script was to make it so the gtk3 build process prints debug info so somewhere in the console there should be info to help see why.

Ill update the deluge script to fix its issue as well.

[MammothJerk]

i think this is the relevant portion of the output about pycairo

that issue is because wheel is missing(pip install wheel) updated the script again. Sorry there so much missed when you already have a dev environment setup I don't always remember everything. This proccess is good for both of us. :)

ye no worries :).

With the latest .bat files now everything install and Deluge runs!

the only thing left would be a dark theme, i don't suppose you have any idea how to get that added? :)
otherwise no biggie, thanks a lot for the help with setup

I am not that familiar, last Iknow you could pu themes in like a gtk folder in appdata or something but details im not sure.
