Yate-qt4 latest version anyone?

[yenz]

Hello everyone!

New here and new to Sabayon, and was just wondering how to install the latest version of the VoIP client Yate-qt4 and if anyone has already done it?

I have have attempted to compile from source but without success. I couldn't figure out which compilation tools to install to get it to compile successfully.

Any pointers in the right direction will be great!

Hi, welcome to the Sabayon forums.

Manual compilation or installation of any application in Sabayon is unsupported and discouraged, if you want to go on that way, keep in mind that you are on your own
The proper way to do it is either using portage or entropy, I see that 4.1.0 version is available in portage.
Anyway, since the very latest version is unavailable in portage the only way you can get it now is by manual compilation, again, keep in mind that this way is discouraged, error prone and possibly dangerous.

To install this application manually (which is unsupported ), by looking at the source tarball, especially the README file, it looks like any regular source distribution, you just need to install GCC:
(as root)

Code: Select all

equo install gcc


Compile it using the usual steps:

Code: Select all

./configure
make


Then install it:
(as root)

Code: Select all

make install
