I'm struggling to install git-subtree with Cygwin and there hasn't been any good tutorials online focused on building from source in Windows. Have you ever had this issue, and what is the best strategy to tackle it?
git-subtree is not part of a package. However, like gitk you can manually
install it
wget rawgit.com/git/git/master/contrib/subtree/git-subtree.sh
install git-subtree.sh /bin/git-subtree

Very noob question, from a user used to Linux and switched to Win.
I'm building a project as a library in Qt, and I am missing libsqlite3. Normally on Linux I'd install it via sudo apt install libsqlite3, but how can I do it in Windows?
I'm using MSVC2019 tools for building my app.
thank you!
I installed IntelliJ and WebStorm on my Linux Mint distro. The problem I have is that I cannot use the integrated terminal on both of the software. In both of them there is a problem with my bash binary location. I researched and saw that the software manager in Linux Mint installs flatpak software by default, and that it works as a sort of a container. I tried to change the location of my bash binary to var/run/host.. but it didn't seem to work.
I read that people solve this by installing the tar version of the software or using snapd. Since snapd is not supported by Linux Mint, what are my alternatives? Can I somehow give access to my software to use my bash, npm, etc... and if not, why is it that flatpak makes these things so difficult?..
Flatpak works as a sandbox environment - each pack has its own runtime environment and because of security reasons, flatpak apps do not have direct access to host files. There could be a lot of problems due to this.
Please try reinstalling the IDE using one of the officially recommended options (https://www.jetbrains.com/help/webstorm/installation-guide.html) - download the tar.gz from https://www.jetbrains.com/webstorm/download/#section=linux, or use the toolbox app to manage installations
I have been trying to install all these libraries for the QEMU build but they seem to throw various errors one after the other. I am spending so much time installing these libraries and solving the errors. Is there any easy way where I can get the whole package installed? or a guide on how to install?
Update: I was working with MingW and understood I could install few libraries from their installers or with command ming-get. But Libgcrypt is still not installed
I'm trying to install Jython on my Mac (Snow Leopard). The installer prompts me to install it under
/Users/myusername/jython2.5.2
However this seems to be an inappropriate place to install an interpreter core, library modules etc...
Any suggestions as to where might be a more appropriate folder... What about
/User/bin/jython2.5.2
Would there be any side-effects of doing this?
I would go with /usr/local/bin, as that is the standard directory for user-installed binaries in the rest of the *nix world. Plus, it's already in your PATH. Using Homebrew helps managing these things.
If you use Homebrew you don't have to worry about these things.
brew install jython
I have recently shifted to OSX environment, so don't know much about MacPorts.
Is there a way to tell MacPorts to pick already installed packages. For instance to install
sudo port install meld
its requiring hell lot of packages, including python2.6. But I already have python2.6 installed.
No there isnt. If you want to link against system installations then use Homebrew or compile manually yourself. Personally i prefer Macports because its completely isolated. Ive got plenty of disk so having duplicates doesnt bother me.
