3. set the plugin repository's root folder containing CMakeLists.txt to where is the source code
4. choose a build folder
5. Set OpenCV_DIR, QT_MAKE_EXECUTABLE, and nomacs_DIR
   • Copy CMakeUserPathsGit.cmake and rename it to CMakeUserPaths.cmake
   • Set all paths to your own builds of nomacs etc.

Build Plugins (Ubuntu)

Build nomacs

Since you need to reference the nomacs resources from the nomacs-plugins directory, specify the nomacs paths in
nomacs-plugins/CMakeUserPaths.cmake:
- Copy CMakeUserPathsGit.cmake and rename it to CMakeUserPaths.cmake
- Set all paths to your own builds of nomacs etc.

In the nomacs-plugins directory run cmake to get the Makefiles:

cmake .

Compile Plugins:

make

This will build all the Plugins set to 'ON' in nomacs-plugins/CMakeLists.txt and create a plugins directory in nomacs/ImageLounge. Running ./nomacs from the nomacs/ImageLounge directory should now list all the built Plugins in the Plugins tab.
