Thank you!
Everything seems to have compiled, waiting for the blockchain download (a complete one) before I'll be able to test if it works.
I also found the discussion on the bug-tracker about this issue. Little odd to make an Ubuntu specific makefile for GNU/Linux and I'm not just saying that because I've never been a fan of Ubuntu. Nevertheless I'm glad a fix is in the works.
Last thing left is figuring out how to get my printer(s) to work without an internet connection and I'll also be able to get an offline Armory up and running.
Topic: Can Armory be compiled on a non Ubuntu GNU/Linux? (Read 512 times)
Hi Joey, yes it is doable, especially with the fix I just personally committed to the Armory repo.
If you don't want an unstable branch, then here's some instructions:
edit cppForSwig/Makefile, remove the two lines with dpkg-buildflags
Then, edit cppForSwig/whereispy.sh and near the bottom there is a line "while [ 1 ]" change that to "while false".
Hope that helps, let me know if you need more help. There's some stuff that's a little bit dicey in there, so if the build fails, you might want to blow out your source tree and start from a clean (make clean might be insufficient)

Should the answer be yes, would it be possible to post the steps/changes needed for that to happen.
I've tried compiling on openSuSE 13, but the make command fails at a dpkg-something step. That step seems to be used to get the ld- and cppflags on ubuntu.
So I figured I'd try and edit out all the references to ldflags and cppflags, but now make just stalls with no message at all.
Btw, I'm a newbie on this forum, so I'm not allowed on the official armory discussion thread.
