13:16 <cmeik> Are there good build instructions for building locally in like, for instance, a home directory?

13:16 <cmeik> I can't make any changes to the system that I'm building on -- like new apt repositories, etc.

13:17 <cmeik> It seems like a starting point is just to build pony locally in my home directory.

13:17 <cmeik> But, I can't seem to find where it's specifying any particular version requirement -- would master work?

13:19 <cmeik> Looks like I need LLVM.

14:25 <SeanTAllen> Sorry to have missed this cmeik

14:25 <SeanTAllen> Are you on Ubuntu cmeik ?

14:25 <SeanTAllen> If yes, which version?

14:27 <SeanTAllen> to install LLVM locally you can do what we do in TravisCI... https://github.com/WallarooLabs/wallaroo/blob/master/travis/install.sh#L6

14:29 <SeanTAllen> that travis/install.sh has how to pretty much install everything from source although you might need to change from prefixes and set some LDLIBRARY_PATH variables and what not

14:40 <aturley> hi cmeik!

16:11 <slfritchie> cmeik: In my experience, the Pony compiler also works well when invoked in the source dir after building, and last phase linking with the runtime libs also works. /path/to/source/build/release/ponyc. Or install to your desired dir via "make destdir=$HOME/where/you/wish install".

16:16 <slfritchie> cmeik: Also, I forgot to mention this after we chatted ... https://github.com/slfritchie/slf-configurator/blob/master/ALL-wallaroo-dev.sh but replace `./ponylang-ponyc.sh` with the script that builds ponyc from source, `ponylang-ponyc-from-src.sh`. Hm, though your $HOME-dir-only environment would have the same restriction on installing the `pony-stable` package? So you'd need a tweak to the `ponylang-stable.sh`

16:16 <slfritchie> script also?

17:35 <cmeik> I'm waiting to see if Northeastern will just install the dependencies on the machine that I'm going to be running on, because that will just drastically simplify things and I won't have to worry about doing all of the builds myself.
