I followed the instructions on the openscad site to build it and its dependencies from source. It built the binary to the source directory but I don't want the source anymore. Can I separate it from the source code? Can I move it? Or is there a way to build it to another path instead? -- View this message in context: http://forum.openscad.org/Build-or-move-openscad-to-another-path-tp21977.html Sent from the OpenSCAD mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

I usually grab from git, (so I can periodically update) I'm assuming you're using the source tar ball the Makefile should have an install target you will probably have to put the dependency libs somewhere (/opt/openscad-libs/ ?) and run with a LD_LIBRARY_PATH script or better yet for each dependency (like CGAL etc) go back to that projects website and see how that project is intended to be installed (many may well just be make install!) I got lucky on Void Linux as most (if not all) dependencies were in the repo - and new enough that I can build from github - there have been some substantial bug fixes so from my point of view it was worth doing (not sure how old the source tar ball is!) at any rate its great you got it working!
