Thanks. See my email discussion with Eeli -- the *.qm files are now
automatically created during the build (during every build, regardless
of whether they were just built a minute ago, and they are created in
the build/ dir not where they used to be -- but at least they do
build!). That works.
However, there seems to be "strangeness" in the way the make logic works
that I can't understand (yet). I'd call it a bug, except that I might
just not be understanding how things are *supposed* to work!
In particular, using an updated svn tree, I am finding that:
make # Build and test-install BibleTime
find . -name "*.qm" | xargs rm # Remove qm files
cd build && make messages # Attempt to recreate the qm files
does not actually recreate the qm files, and I am not sure why. Perhaps
you guys will force me to learn cmake, if this continues :)
