I have been attempting to compile geany from git and although it appears to build successfully, when I try to run it, the following error is displayed:
> (geany:29825): Geany-ERROR **: 16:14:48.297: Cannot create user-interface: Failed to open file “geany.glade”: No such file or directory
Trace/breakpoint trap
I have configured the build with './autogen.sh --prefix=/opt/geany' and when I type in the following:
> /opt/geany/bin/geany --print-prefix
the following is displayed:
> /opt/geany
/opt/geany/share
/opt/geany/lib
/opt/geany/share/locale
Due to the error, I tried to install from the repository for my linux distribution (Debian testing/buster) on a 64 bit machine and even their version has the same problem.
I can change to the /opt/geany/share/geany directory and then run the program and it will start up (as the glade file is in that directory) but then it will not load the plugins that I have also built from git.
I note that in the Makefile that GEANY_DATA_DIR is being set to /opt/geany/share/geany which seems to be correct but it does not seem to be getting taken into account in the final executable or libraries.
Any help in this matter would be much appreciated.
