Building simulator version off master

Is there any docs on how to build simulator version of master from git? I am looking but cannot find any

Try one of the ready made deb's first, here
buildbot.linuxcnc.org/dists/
I never had to build a simulator, usually one of deb's works, depending on the distro you are using.
It saves a lot of time and nerves.
Look for master-sim folders

The uspace option will build without a rt kernel, is that what you're thinking of ?

I am on linuxmint 19.

I just want something I can run to test some stuff. I am tired of testing on production machines, and hoping all goes well.

I wrote some quick notes here:
forum.linuxcnc.org/9-installing-linuxcnc...xcnc?start=30#129459

Instructions for Ubuntu 18.04 but should be good for Mint as well.

Have a read of the link I gave, should answer your questions.

configure: WARNING: The LinuxCNC binary you are building may not be
distributable due to a license incompatibility with LinuxCNC (some portions
GPL-2 only) and Readline version 6 and greater (GPL-3 or later).


What is that? followed by:

configure: error: To configure LinuxCNC in this way, you must
invoke configure with "--enable-non-distributable=yes". Note that on
Debian-based systems, you may be able to use libreadline-gplv2-dev instead.
