mod6: I have a new V99994 in testing as I type this.
mod6: and I worked on the makefile thing over the weekend. i'm getting there.
mod6: so, trust me, as soon as I have something, you'll be the first to know.
mod6: shinohai: im also running the new V99994 build script with the updated openssl url now actually. as well, the makeflies (the original ones from trinque) work as long as it contains the updates that I put in for the lastest versoin of V.
mod6: I'm currently in the process of V-ifiying these now. Which actually, passed one test just fine.
mod6: It's a bit circular though.
mod6: One would have to either, pull down /just the makefiles/ and build .. OR pull V, sync against the mirror (or place patches in by hand), then press, then build the pressed dir (which also pulls patches depending on what is set in the makefiles themselves)
mod6: the latter would build the full orchastra, and i believe (although haven't tried yet) you can simply place boost, openssl, and bdb in the 'shit' directory by hand to avoid downloading of deps from a remote site.
mod6: same with V iirc. anyway, gotta check that part out a bit more.
mod6: anyway, it could be arragned both ways: 1. we hand out a bundle of makefiles - you make, you get a bitcoind. 2. you get V, you press your own thing, then you make the makefiles as you wish.
mod6: either way, a bit more work to do here.
mod6: but off to a good start.

mod6: building via makefiles from pressed wild makefile.vpatch ... so far so good...
