Hi guys,
I'm new to running synchronet on Linux, and luckily I'm still in testing before
re-releasing my system in the Linux environment. I have no problems building
using the GNU Makefile
make install SYMLINK=1

The issue happens when I do a git pull, and follow instructions in the wiki for
updating.
I change directories into /sbbs/repo/src/sbbs3/
I ensure I run SBBSEXEC=/sbbs/exec
and SBBSCTRL=/sbbs/brsl
and then I run, as directed
make RELEASE=1 symlinks setcapH

In Debian, under debian 12, the following command works, and I think it has to
do with gmake being used. Can this be updated in the wiki?

make RELEASE=1 SYMLINK=1 SETCAP=1

I hope this helps.

NER

So I got make RELEASE=1 symlinks setcap
to work
setting the environment valiables using SBBSEXEC/sbbs/exec/
and SBBSCTRL=/sbbs/ctrl
does not work. You must run export to set these
export SBBSEXEC=/sbbs/exec
etc.

I'm not sure if this requires a wiki update but it might be able to be
clarified.

As expected. That's a normal Linux procedure, and is indeed documented
on the Wiki, right here:
https://wiki.synchro.net/install:nix#configuring

Seems clear already. Also, you generally don't need to use the SBBSEXEC
environment variable, just the SBBSCTRL.

A lot of the issues I ever had with the environment variables is sovled with ln -sf. If you were getting something weird with the SBBSEXEC dir that might do it.

Something like -

sudo ln -sf ~/sbbs /
