Re: [mh] Misterhouse 3.0 questions

[Carl M. <cmc...@co...>]

Thanks, jared, for the quick tutorial.

I was on stable, got sort of wound around the axel so deleted my 
Misterhouse folder and ran git again to download stable, following a bit 
more carefully the step by step HERE 
<https://github.com/hollie/misterhouse/wiki/Getting-started>. I then did 
a git checkout master and git branch -va now says I am on master.
I did the "git fetch upstream" and "git merge upstream/master" which 
returned the response "Already up-to-date.".

git push returned a bunch of errors, I think I see why - I bet you have 
a github account and are developing?

I am going to experiment a bit with what I now believe may be up to date 
master to see if I see differences, then I'll be back.

I am running on an embedded platform with a customized kernel.(Asus 
router RT-N16 running DD-WRT and Optware)
I'll tackle GD (gd) later. It could be that my Perl-GD package will work 
once I am running master.

Thanks for all the hints and direction
