Those instructions are not meant for spoon feeding.

*Sigh*
I mean,
duh.
Literally the entire description of what you need to do first is:
Quote:
Building must run on a Linux computer.

Not, "On a linux system, with the required dependencies", not "on a linux system with qmake and <other dependencies> installed". They say "You need linux to run this".
Additionally, literally 2 lines above that:
Quote:
In general builds proceed in two steps, first build all the dependencies, then build the calibre installer itself.
|
I realize at this point I think the "bootstrap" step is supposed to be run in the build environment, but it's called out in the readme as "Requirements"
before the step which builds the components on which it depends. "Requirements" implies "you need to do this first".
If nothing else, again, the documentation (such as it is) is extremely misleading.
Wrong documentation is worse then no documentation.
