Styx requirement

[ajray]

Hey there,

I just checked out the bzr current, and I'm trying to build firtree
under Fedora 11 (which has already been fun and a half).

After getting all of the LLVM stuff I needed built, and downloading
and building Styx, I've run into a small problem: How do I specify
where the Styx resources are?

I have the Styx bin in my $PATH, but `cmake ../firtree` (from my build
directory) still fails with the following message:

CMake Error at cmake/Modules/UseStyx.cmake:11 (MESSAGE):
Styx (http://speculate.de/) is required.
Call Stack (most recent call first):
cmake/Modules/UseStyx.cmake:16 (_styx_find_package)
llvm-frontend/styx-parser/CMakeLists.txt:10 (add_styx_grammars)


-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!


I just downloaded and built Styx 1.7.5 which the site says is the
latest stable.

Thanks,
~Alex

Additionally, I'd love to start adding OpenCV functionality through
opencv's python interface, but that will have to come after I get this
successfully built.

Also: at some point it's gonna be easier for me to pull up an Ubuntu
VM and just build it there. This is straightforward enough for me; is
that the right way to go?

I'm not sure this is a good thing or not, but it was actually simpler
for me to install virt-manager under Fedora 11 (virtual machine
manager) and just make an Ubuntu virtual machine. Quick and dirty,
but now all of the requirements are packages.

Just my 2cents.
