Compiling Second Life First Look 1.13.3.58018

UPDATE – new build: no better results, and I filed my first bug for SL.

Here is my system specs and here’s what I did:

tar xzf slviewer-src-FL-1.13.3.58018.tar.gz
unzip slviewer-artwork-FL-1.13.3.58018.zip
tar xzf slviewer-linux-libs-FL-1.13.3.58018.tar.gz
tar xzf fmodapi375linux.tar.gz

cd fmodapi375linux/
cp api/inc/* ../linden/libraries/i686-linux/include/
cp api/libfmod-3.75.so ../linden/libraries/i686-linux/lib_release_client/

export SLSRC=~/Desktop/sl/Opensource/1.13.3.58018/linden
cp -a /usr/include/atk-1.0 ${SLSRC}/libraries/i686-linux/include/
cp -a /usr/include/gtk-2.0 ${SLSRC}/libraries/i686-linux/include/
cp -a /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/include/* ${SLSRC}/libraries/i686-linux/include/gtk-2.0/
cp -a /usr/include/glib-2.0 ${SLSRC}/libraries/i686-linux/include/
cp -a /usr/lib/glib-2.0/include/* ${SLSRC}/libraries/i686-linux/include/glib-2.0/
cp -a /usr/include/pango-1.0 ${SLSRC}/libraries/i686-linux/include/
cp -a /usr/include/cairo/* ${SLSRC}/libraries/i686-linux/include/

cd ../linden/indra/
vim newview/linux_tools/client-manifest-i686
(I uncomment the two lines corresponding to libllkdu and libkdu – then they should be automatically copied into the right place in the runtime directory as I’m following the ‘Packaging the client’ instructions)

scons DISTCC=no BTARGET=client BUILD=releasefordownload

First Look binary gave me great improvements on Linux (60%-100% more FPS), so I’m going now building the sources of 1.13.3.58018. Here is the Wiki page with useful info.

I’ll try to solve the partial problem I met last month using BUILD=releasefordownload scon option (that builds a complete tarball for the end-user, similarly to the ones we download from the Linden website). After the building, I extract the resulting .bz2 archive, but the viewer didn’t start – the app_settings directory lacked lots of files. Instead, i could successfully run the viewer from the source tree…and it worked fine.
I probably misunderstood the Wiki instructions here…then Tofu Linden cleared to me that BUILD=releasefordownload is supposed to work with the slviewer-linux-libs bundle as well.

However, this time I have installed via apt-get these libraries:

• libboost-dev libboost-regex-dev libapr1.0-dev libaprutil1.0-dev libjpeg62-dev libsdl1.2-dev libvorbis-dev libexpat1-dev.

then uncompressed the viewer tar.gz:

• tar xzf slviewer-src-FL-1.13.3.58018.tar.gz

defined the location of the sources (“linden” dir.):

• export SLSRC=./linden (change this according to your case)

I was going to install all the additional dependencies (the last ones in the Prerequisites section of the Wiki page) but I stopped trying to patch xmlrpc-epi.

I continue then as described in the article of the last month. This will need a couple of hours – I go to eat now!

As the last month, it works only from inside the sources tree. But it rocks!
