Ubuntu 18.04: cannot compile binary
leder11011 opened this issue · 8 comments
Previous git sources allowed me to generate mdless binary.
Now I only get errors:
Please give me a hint how to compile mdless binary!
leder@leder-ryzen-home:~/Git/mdless$ bundle update
The gemspec at /home/leder/Git/mdless/mdless/mdless.gemspec is not valid. Please fix this gemspec.
The validation error was 'metadata['homepage_uri'] has invalid link: "TODO: Put your gem's website or public
repo URL here."'
leder@leder-ryzen-home:~/Git/mdless$ gem build mdless.gemspec

Is there a reason you're not just using gem install mdless? I haven't made any significant changes that should break your ability to compile, but you're getting errors I can't explain without a more info on what you're trying to do.
OK: fresh git clone installed mdless binary in bin folder. But I am unable to:
- delete
binfolder - compile binary
mdlessby myself
Any ideas? This should be possible in order not to checkout the binary, but do a git pull on the sources and implementing any changes by myself!
Not sure about 18.04, but on ubuntu 20.04 it compiles and runs successfully. I did:
sudo apt install rake
rake package
sudo rake install
I previously had a snap installed for mdless - but it didn't like one of the terminal types I use. The one I compiled has no trouble with it.
