Hi,

I've installed the haiku live image and downloaded the webpositve source
code, but now I'm not sure how to build it.

There's a file txt named HOWTOBUILD.txt but it seems it's quite outdated.
e.g. gcc4 is not installed by default on haiku image, and
installoptionalpackage doesn't provide this package.

Is there anything I'm missing? Any thoughts?

AFAIK the instructions are not outdated, but you need to use a hybrid image that has GCC4 installed. If you already used a hybrid image, then GCC4 should aready be installed and you have to activate it with "setgcc gcc4" from the command line. This will toggle a link somewhere to point to the GCC4 build tools.

Best regards,
