[QGIS-Developer] Queries on building QGIS 3.

[Tudor Barascu]

 Hi,
The library problem can be mitigated by exporting the path to the libraries before running qgis from source.
E.g. create a  start-qgis.sh with
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/pathto/qgis-master/lib/pathto/qgis-master/bin/./qgis

Then run it..
All the best,
Tudor

 Hi all! I built QGIS master (2a960c5) using the instructions from (a) https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/ blob/master/INSTALL supplemented by (b) https://www.lutraconsulting. co.uk/blog/2017/08/06/qgis3d- build/ because I wanted to try the new 3D features. My machine runs on Xubuntu 16.04. The build works fine but I noticed a few things.
1.) Plugins are unavailable when running QGIS from ./output/bin/qgis of the build directory. The Settings tab of "Manage and Install Plugins" says "No Python support detected thus no settings available." Is this normal? I've only tried building QGIS recently so I don't know if it is.
2.) After doing a ninja install, running qgis from {$HOME}/apps/bin fails because it can't find the shared libraries that I used in (b). I tried making simlinks to the said libraries to (b) but to no avail. Is there an updated/better way to build QGIS with 3D support on Xubuntu 16.04 or should I stick to running from the build directory?
3.) What's the update or plan for the Processing -> Commander function in QGIS 3? I can't seem to find it in my build.
Thank you in advance. Cheers!
