Build configuration
For the moment, the best way to configure Smil is with the shell script config-smil. This script will take into account that you're inside an Anaconda and configure Smil accordingly.
This script can be found inside
contrib/scripts directory of Smil distribution.
Usage of this script is explained from the help command :
config-smil help
$ config-smil help
config-smil
Usage :
config-smil [ options ] SourceDirectory
Options :
--help
This message
--prefix=prefix
This option defines the prefix where Smil will be installed.
Default value is /usr/local.
--addon=name,name,name,...
A comma separated list of Addons to enable
Default enabled Addons : Color Filters HoughTransform
Example :
config-smil --addon=GraphCuts --prefix=/usr/local/Smil-27 /home/sources/smil

So, in short words, to configure, compile and install Smil under Anaconda, the simplest way is something of the kind :
Download
$ mkdir sources $ cd sources $ git clone https://github.com/ensmp-cmm/smil
Change git branch (optional)
$ cd smil $ git checkout develop $ cd ..
Configure, compile and install
$ mkdir build $ cd build $ ../smil/contrib/scripts/config-smil ../smil $ make -j 6 $ sudo make install
When building
Smil with Python, each instance of Smil is valid only for the version of Python it was linked. So, if you intend to run Smil with different versions of Python, you'll need to build as many instances of Smil as you have versions of Python.
The easiest way to do this is to use different prefixes. E.g. :
/usr/local/Smil-2.7, /usr/local/Smil-3.5, /usr/local/Smil-3.7 …
Defining a prefix for Python 2.7
config-smil --prefix=/usr/local/Smil-27
