    From Rick Smith@1:105/81 to All on Sun Sep 18 13:50:44 2022
    Hello All!

    I inherited 1:105 and I have to change its server, the only piece I do not have experience with is makeNL its running fine currently on a rpi but I am moving setup to a x86 so I need to compile makenl for vanilla linux and I am having trouble finding some good instructions... Any help appreciated...

    Regards,

    Rick

    Didn't have a ton of luck using makenl on linux as the information is so spread out and inaccurate a lot of the time. I did manage to figure out nlmake and its been working solid ever since.. Not sure how much help I can be but if you need help let me know and I can try.
    The one I use I got from:
    https://github.com/ftnapps/nlmake.git

    *** Quoting Rick Smith from a message to All ***

    I inherited 1:105 and I have to change its server, the only piece I
    do not have experience with is makeNL its running fine currently on a
    rpi but I am moving setup to a x86 so I need to compile makenl for
    vanilla linux and I am having trouble finding some good
    instructions... Any help appreciated...

    This is what worked for me on Ubuntu Server 20.04.5 LTS:

    sudo apt install cmake pandoc build-essential zip unzip
    cd /tmp
    wget -O mn350src.zip
    https://sourceforge.net/projects/makenl/files/makenl/3.5. 0/mn350src.zip/download
    unzip ./mn350src.zip
    cd makenl-3.5.0/
    mkdir build
    cd build/
    cmake .. && make && sudo make install

    (the wget & https line should all be on one line).
