:: which is exactly why we started this whole initiative, to provide osgEarth binaries first and foremost. now, on the subject of getting these package changes reviewed and merged into upstream/master... i don't think that's realistic, given that i did my own thing to make it work *on my distribution*, so as it stands, for the sake of progress, we should focus on our branch, it's very clear to see how each plugin/dependancy was built from .mk files to check for regressions, my fork is so off the upstream it's not even funny, converting some packages to CMake and reverting to stable GCC among others. -- [[User:Hamzaalloush|Hamzaalloush]] ([[User talk:Hamzaalloush|talk]]) 20:16, 29 May 2015 (EDT)

: ok, I see - I was mainly referring to required OSG/SG and FG level patches to ensure that those are merged (think CMakeLists.txt stuff). Regarding mxe, I would suggest to gather all related patches/branches and establish this as a "fork" intended to support compilation of OSG-based applications like FlightGear, which would mean that other OSG projects/developers may sooner or later be interested in using such an "mxe.osg" fork. Equally, I would hope that using the OBS would help us do some more testing on non Ubuntu distros eventually (I am also on Ubuntu 14.xx) to ensure that "mxe.osg" works across a handful of main distros. For now, the focus should probably be coming up with an osgearth.mk module to see if the OSG integration is able to link other OSG apps, i.e. SG/FG afterwards. Once that is the case, we can review poweroftwo's batch file and create separate simgear-osgearth.mk and flightgear-osgearth.mk files for FG/osgEarth. The Superbuild shouldn't be a priority right now, but I will make sure to check what is required to get that working. Thanks so far everybody, great job !--[[User:Hooray|Hooray]] ([[User talk:Hooray|talk]]) 09:00, 30 May 2015 (EDT)
