1. Add a new file named BUILD.rst based on the Compilation page of the Wiki. The BUILD file includes an update to the Ubuntu build guide to close issue number 4086 and a newly updated Fedora build guide tested in Fedora 39. The Windows and MacOS build guides are direct copies of the current guides on the wiki. The PyPy section is taken directly from the wiki. 2. Update READ.rst to link to BUILD.rst where it currently links to the Compilation page of the Wiki.

Thanks for this. Much appreciated, this will be very helpful for folks. I’ve put the fedora section in the wiki for now… We should also adjust the build config to show a link there if the build fails on fedora. The Ubuntu change still needs to be done, and the bug in #4096 still needs to be fixed. Probably I’d prefer a compilation guide in docs/ and I know someone else already started writing one for there. Will give them a nudge to see where they’re up to. |
