Daily and Stable - both at once?

[GreenXenith]

Hello!
I have recently taken interest in trying the daily builds. I want to try them, but I also want to keep the stable. If I add a new repository (daily instead of stable) and use the apt-get install minetestc55 (I am using Xubuntu), I am assuming that it will replace the stable build (if not let me know).
Is there a way to have both the stable and daily at once on my system?
Thanks!

You can use the one line build command to build it yourself - the daily build will then just be in a folder in home rather than system wide.

If you use the version which is not run in place / not portable it'll also use the same files. Make sure you remove the sudo make install command

Make sure you remove the sudo make install command

What does that mean?

EDIT: Nevermind I think I found it.

It worked! Thanks!
Here is full code:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install -y git build-essential libirrlicht-dev libgettextpo0 libfreetype6-dev cmake libbz2-dev libpng12-dev libjpeg8-dev libxxf86vm-dev libgl1-mesa-dev libsqlite3-dev libogg-dev libvorbis-dev libopenal-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev libluajit-5.1-dev liblua5.1-0-dev libleveldb-dev; cd; git clone https://github.com/minetest/minetest.git; cd minetest/games; git clone https://github.com/minetest/minetest_game.git; cd ..; cmake . -DENABLE_GETTEXT=1 -DENABLE_FREETYPE=1 -DENABLE_LEVELDB=1; make -j$(nproc); minetest; echo -e "\n\n\e[1;33mYou can run Minetest again by typing \"minetest\" in a terminal or selecting it in an applications menu.\nYou can install mods in ~/.minetest/mods, too.\e[0m"

Now do I have to run this every time I want to try a new daily build?

You just have to run this:

Code: Select all

git pull origin master && make -j$(nproc)

A daily build is simply-ish a version of Minetest with new changes, but the thing is that is unstable and sometimes can crash if there is an error. (not everytime).
Depending on your Operative System you can get them in this area of the forum.
