Compiling for unusual directories? #7

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
Hi, fantastic looking piece of software you've got here. Hopefully this will be 
an easy one:

Is there any way to compile gimp-normalmap for systems with GIMP installed in 
an unusual place? I'm currently running a version of GIMP on Linux (Ubuntu) 
compiled from the current git code, and I prefer to keep it in my Home folder 
as described at http://www.gimp.org/source/howtos/gimp-git-build.html. I've 
taken a cursory look into the makefiles and didn't immediately see any way to 
set a directory. Also, I would prefer not to solve this through environment 
variables, but I'll go that route if there's no other way.

Thanks in advance!

It should be as simple as altering the PKG_CONFIG_PATH variable to point to the 
pkg-config files for your custom installation (covered in the link you 
provided), and then modify the GIMPTOOL variable in the Makefile to use your 
custom installation's gimptool.
