      I am having a similar error compiling the source for brl-cad 7.2.2 on an Ubuntu 5.04 (Hoary Hedgehog) system. I was able to compile the source okay on Mepis 3.3, but I just switched to Ubuntu and it's not working.

      After getting a few packages, I was able to run ./configure okay. Running make, I get an error a few lines after where Martin did. Here is an excerpt of the terminal output:

        Your error message indicates that it cannot find the X11 headers:  tk.h:100:29: X11/Xlib.h: No such file or directory

        There are two possible reasons for this.  1) You really don't have the X11 developer headers/libraries installed or 2) configure wasn't able to detect that you have them installed.  Since you are on Ubuntu, I'm going to slightly presume option #2, but you should still verify that you indeed do have the X11 headers.  i.e.  'locate Xlib.h' reports what?

        From the compile line, it's trying /usr/X11R6/include/X11/Xlib.h so if it's not there, that would be the problem.  There are a variety of workarounds, but I'd need to have a better idea of what your pariticular setup is first (i.e. is it really installed and if so, where is Xlib.h).

      Daniel - 2005-05-03

      After typing 'locate Xlib.h', it only returned the copy in ~/brl-cad-7.2.2/src/other/libtk/xlib/X11/Xlib.h

      I then installed the Xlib-dev package, to see if that would fix the problem. On running locate, it still only returns the copy of Xlib.h in my home directory.

      If I cd to /usr/X11R6/include/X11/, it shows a file Xlib.h in the directory when I type 'ls', but it doesn't appear to be finding it when I type locate

       
      • Sean Morrison

        Sean Morrison - 2005-05-03

        That is to be expected.  The locate database does not update automatically/immediately.  Most systems are configured to update the locate database sometime in the middle of the night.  If the Xlib-dev package really was what you needed, you should be able to rerun configure:

        ./configure
        make

        If you notice, when you run configure there will be lines referring to X11 like "checking for header X11/Xlib.h ... yes" .. paste them here if make fails again as well as the summary lines at the end of configure for LIBS and CPPFLAGS.

      I tried to compile the source again and came up against a different error:

      followed by lots more if_ogl.c errors.

      I've looked through Synaptic, but I haven't been able to figure out which package to install to solve this.

      When I type 'locate if_ogl.c' it finds ~/brlcad-7.2.2/src/libfb/if_ogl.c

      When I ran ./configure, the portions concerning X11:

        Good, that's progress believe it or not.  It successfully found the X11 headers and libraries.  What it did not find is the Open GL headers/libraries.  The lines that say checking for GL/... should say yes as well.  That means you probably need to install some other -dev package (mesa-gl-dev? mesa-dev?) as well, still.

        It doesn't "require" opengl to build, but it's presently hard-wired to presume that it's available.  In the near future, that will be auto-detected and disabled when not available.

      I downloaded and installed the packages xlibmesa-dev, xlibmesa-gl-dev, and xlibmesa-glu-dev. I then ran ./configure and make and got the same error as before.

      The xlibmesa-gl and -glu libraries are the X.org version of the Mesa 3D library. If I want to install the normal version, Synaptic makes me uninstall the normal Mesa libraries. Here is the blurb from Synaptic:

      Mesa 3D graphics library [X.Org]
      Mesa is a 3D graphics library which presents an API intended to be compatible
      with OpenGL.  X.Org maintains its own version of the Mesa library (which is
      regularly resynchronized with the official one) to permit development of the
      X.Org X server's Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI), which makes the 3D
      acceleration features of many modern video cards available to X client
      programmers.

        Same error as before most likely because you didn't run autogen.sh again perhaps?  Configure caches results from previous configure runs, so it wouldn't have even tried to search for the headers a second time if you just reran configure (which I may have forgotten to mention.. *ahem*).  Rerun autogen.sh then configure and see if it still doesn't find the GL/gl.h headers (which you should have as /usr/X11R6/include/GL/gl.h).

        It sounds like the package you really needed might have been called mesa-gl-dev?  Either way, the headers should be nearly identical for our purposes and it sounds like you already have the libraries installed.  So to recap, ./autogen.sh && ./configure .. make sure it finds GL/gl.h during the header section checks and that it'll probably add -lgl or somesuch to the LIBS.

      This time it got past the GL errors. The next snag is with Sc.

      I ran ./autogen.sh, ./configure, and make, and received lots of errors about sc.c. I looked around in Synaptic and downloaded and installed libsc-dev. I then reran autogen, configure, and make. This time I received a shorter list of errors:

        That particular dependency is actually fixed in the latest CVS version 7.2.3 and will be released in 7.2.4 in a day or two, but it's easy enough to resolve locally for 7.2.2 also.  It's basically expecting a termlib/termcap/curses/ncurses library.  Install any one of those, and you should finally be good to go after reconfiguring.

        Cheers!

      I downloaded and installed libncurses5-dev, and it solved that particular problem. The next one I came up againt was about libcursor.so. I installed libxcursor-dev, ran autogen, configure, and make, and the error still occured:

        That is our libcursor that's missing the curses symbols.  I think you're there, you just have leftover objects in the way:

        ./autogen.sh
        ./configure
        make clean
        make

        The make clean is, of course, the important step in your instance so that when you do the make, it really is starting clean.

      I ran ./autogen.sh, ./configure, make clean, and make, and came up against the following error:

      Making all in tclscripts
      make[2]: Entering directory `/home/dgreisen/brlcad-7.2.2/src/tclscripts'
      ../../src/bwish/btclsh ../../src/tclscripts/ampi.tcl ../../src/tclscripts

      make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1

      Looking through the installed packages, I had tcl8.4, so I installed tcl8.4-dev. I then ran ./autogen.sh again, and this time it failed, with messages like:

      /usr/share/aclocal/tcl.m4:228: warning: underquoted definition of SC_LOAD_TCLCONFIG

      and

      configure:34233: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_HAVE_HEADERS
      configure:34654: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_TRY_CPP
      configure:35711: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_STRUCT_TIMEZONE
      ERROR: autoconf failed

      Do I need to use an older version of tcl? My other options for packages are 8.0 and 8.3

        Hrm, this seems like a step backwards and it should not have been.  If you can join #bzflag on irc.freenode.net, I can help you interactively and hopefully/probably in a much much shorter amount of time instead of this message ping pong.  You need an IRC client (like an instant messaging client, but instead of person to person, it's designed for multiuser "rooms") and you can use http://irc.brlcad.org to try to access via a web browser.  Hang around long enough and I'll respond (feel free to just idle there).

        As for this last error, I'm a little bit baffled without seeing the full log.  It made it all the way to the tclscripts directory, yet is complaining that libbu failed to build.  This has nothing to do with your system libtcl/tk, by the way.  Perhaps you could send me the entire build log transcript from autogen through configure and make?  This would do the trick:

        ./autogen.sh >> build.log 2>&1
        ./configure >> build.log 2>&1
        make >> build.log 2>&1

        Then you could mail that log to me (brlcad at users dot sourceforge dot net should work) -- alternatively, hop on IRC and we can interactively figure out just what's going wrong.
