##I have downloaded from https://sourceforge.net/projects/golly/ ... golly-3.3/
tar xvf golly-3.3-src.tar.gz
##I have made a snapshot of the virtual machine where I build Golly
##uname -a
##Linux martin-VirtualBox 4.18.0-15-generic #16~18.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Thu Feb 7 14:06:04 UTC 2019 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
EDIT: I should have read ~/Downloads/golly-3.3-src/docs/Build.html
Question1: this Build.html is the best available document how to build Golly on Linux ... ?
(BTW, I have found an unofficial copy https://github.com/AlephAlpha/golly/blo ... Build.html )
(EDIT: https://sourceforge.net/p/golly/code/ci ... Build.html )

wget https://github.com/wxWidgets/wxWidgets/ ... .5.tar.bz2
sudo apt-get install mesa-common-dev
sudo apt-get install freeglut3-dev
tar xvf wxWidgets-3.0.5.tar.bz2
cd wxWidgets-3.0.5/
mkdir build-gtk
cd build-gtk
../configure --with-gtk --disable-shared --enable-unicode --with-opengl
this failed:
googing this message was not easyconfigure: error:
The development files for GTK+ were not found. For GTK+ 2, please
ensure that pkg-config is in the path and that gtk+-2.0.pc is
installed. For GTK+ 1.2 please check that gtk-config is in the path,
and that the version is 1.2.3 or above. Also check that the
libraries returned by 'pkg-config gtk+-2.0 --libs' or 'gtk-config
--libs' are in the LD_LIBRARY_PATH or equivalent.
at this point I panicked, and
sudo apt-get install wx3.0-headers #3.0.4
sudo apt-get install wx-common
sudo apt-get install wxglade
maybe I will have to revert to the snapshot of the virtual machine that I have made in the beginning
----
EDIT 2: my mistake, I apologize
Question2: I could not find
local-gtk-template.mk
... actually any *.mk except
local-win-template.mk
((EDIT: I have found it now
https://sourceforge.net/p/golly/code/ci ... emplate.mk))
-----
sudo apt-get install python2.7-dev
sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev
interestingly, after this , the
../configure --with-gtk --disable-shared --enable-unicode --with-opengl
succeeds
----
I am going to revert to the snapshot of the virtual machine that I have made in the beginning
(EDIT there is also an AppImage viewtopic.php?f=4&t=3627&p=86021#p86042 )
