Daniel Nöthen - 2024-02-24

Hello Rafael, thanks for the kind words :)

Actually the current instructions include "curl-devel" which worked fine for me.
Did you follow some old instructions which didn't include neither curl-devel nor libcurl-devel?
I am wondering why they name their packages sometimes libfoo-devel and sometimes only foo-devel. Do you know the difference between them?

An AppImage is available on the official home page:

Best,
Daniel

  Hi Daniel
  First, thanks for your great job!!!! ;)
  I was trying to compile BUTT for openSUSE Tumbleweed, and there is only one step you should update in instructions. Please, add "libcurl-devel" to zypper command. So it will be:
  sudo zypper in fltk-devel portaudio-devel libmp3lame-devel libvorbis-devel libogg-devel flac-devel libcurl-devel<o:p></o:p>
  And then compilation will be successful.
  On the other hand, did you think about to create an AppImage version? That way, Linux users will only need to download and launch BUTT instead of install libraries and compile.

Rafael Linux User - 2024-02-26

First I wanted to thank you (what a pain) for something new that I didn't know about, and for which I compiled your Linux version ... you have taken the trouble to create an AppImage version!!!! I always use the AppImage version if available of any application. "Run away from Flatpak, you fools!!!".

Since that version exists, I won't need to compile, but I did double-check my initial comment and the package is not correct. Here are my steps:
1. I downloaded source code
2. I extracted all content to proper folder
3. I opened "INSTALL" file, where command for openSUSE appear as
sudo zypper in fltk-devel portaudio-devel libmp3lame-devel libvorbis-devel libogg-devel flac-devel libfdk-aac-devel libopus-devel libopenssl-devel libopus-devel libsamplerate-devel dbus-1-devel curl-devel

and that's the point: library "curl-devel" doesn't exist in openSUSE, as you can see in attached file, that is the output of "zypper se curl" command. It's a typicall issue. For reasons I don't know, openSUSE and maybe Fedora too, usually name "libwhatever-devel" to source files.

Thanks from Linux community for create BUTT and the AppImage version!! ;)
