[Therion] Therion fails on Fedora 41

Sat Nov 9 13:25:41 CET 2024

This is a clean folder since it is a new version of Therion.  I did not 
try to recompile 6.2.0.

"branch master" is not a term I understand.  Does that refer to the git 
repository?

I did figure this out.  The solution is to use the git repository rather 
than the tar.gz file that is on the web site.  My revised compile 
process is this:

0) Open a bash window
1) Change to ~/Installs
2) git clone https://github.com/therion/therion
2.5) Change to ~/Installs/therion (should be a new directory)
3) mkdir build
4) perl makeconfig.pl
5) cd build
6) cmake ..
7) make -j 4
8) Become root
9) Change to the build directory.
10) make install

With this I now have working Therion on Fedora 41.

Thanks!
