| Summary | 0016748: Feature request: Allow running without installing | ||||
| Description | As mentioned in https://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=16745#c49536, you have to install scribus before you are able to run it. I think it would improve the development workflow if this isn't neccesary. There are a couple advantages of not having to run make install: - No sudo needed. The installation directory needs sudo permissions to access. - One fewer command needed - It's quicker Are there any big blockers that make this hard to do? | ||||

HI We won't support this. However I think you can change a few things and then you won't encounter the below issues: - Use a home directory based install directory. Use a cmake option like -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=/home/<username>/scribus/install15x for example - You do not need to make and then make install. Just simply run make install Apart from the time to install, which is just a few seconds, its not really any slower. thanks Craig |
