General Linux

OSRA v1.3.7

  1. Compile and/or install all the necessary [Dependencies].
  2. Unpack OSRA package.

  3. Run /configure. By default all dependencies should be autodetected. If not, you need to specify them: ./configure --with-tclap-include=/usr/local/include/tclap --with-openbabel-include=/usr/local/include/openbabel-2.0 --with-openbabel-lib=/usr/local/lib

    Note: In order to generate and install manpages, you need to --enable-docs
    4. Run make; make install. Now you can use OSRA.

OSRA v1.3.6 and earlier

  1. Compile and/or install all the necessary [Dependencies].

    Note for OCRAD: Starting with ocrad-0.19 OCRAD compilation generates libocrad.a library used by OSRA. You need to run ./configure && make to compile OCRAD.
    Note for GOCR: If using version 0.47 or later compile the library libPgm2asc.a the following way: cd gocr-0.47; ./configure CPPFLAGS=-fPIC LDFLAGS=-fPIC; make libs;
    2. Unpack OSRA package.
    3. Edit the included Makefile to make sure you have the correct locations for potrace, gocr, ocrad, openbabel (or rdkit), and tclap.
    4. Check that GraphicsMagick++-config location (it's a script that comes from GraphicsMagick installation) is in your PATH. You might have to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to /usr/local/lib.
    5. Set ARCH variable to one of the following:
    1. unix – for linux,unix,osx
    2. win32 – for building on Windows MinGW environment.
    6. Running make should then generate the executable ./osra.

Debian

OSRA v1.3.6 and earlier

  • You need Debian [squeeze](http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/) distro.

  • To create needed Debian packages one need to install:

    apt-get install \
    build-essential dpkg-dev fakeroot

  • To generate libgocr-dev package download the sources for original [gocr_0.48](http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/g/gocr/) package and apply [gocr-dev_0.48.debian.patch.gz](https://sourceforge.net/projects/osra/files/contrib/1.3.6/gocr-dev_0.48.debian.patch.gz/download). After that compile the package in the ordinary way:

    # apt-get source gocr
    # zcat gocr-dev_0.48.debian.patch.gz | patch
    # cd gocr-0.48
    # dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot
    # dpkg -i ../libgocr-dev_0.48-1_i386.deb

  • Basic development packages for OSRA are:

    # apt-get install \
    libgraphicsmagick++1-dev libpotrace-dev libgocr-dev libocrad-dev libtclap-dev libopenbabel-dev libnetpbm10-dev libbz2-dev

  • Download original OSRA sources from here and apply the attached patch [osra_1.3.6_Makefile.patch.gz](https://sourceforge.net/projects/osra/files/contrib/1.3.6/osra_1.3.6_Makefile.patch.gz/download):

    wget -nv http://cactus.nci.nih.gov/osra/osra-1.3.6.tgz

    cd osra-1.3.6

    zcat osra_1.3.6_Makefile.patch.gz | patch

    make

Additional information

If you get the error: 

/usr/lib/gcc/i586-suse-linux/4.3/../../../../i586-suse-linux/bin/ld: cannot find -latk-1.0
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

you need to correct the link /usr/lib/libatk-1.0.so to point to correct library version /usr/lib/libatk-1.0.so -> libatk-1.0.so.0.2809.1. This happens because you installed library package with older release version then corresponding -devel package.
