#5 How I got qavimator to install in Ubuntu 12.04 LTS.

[sfmember1138]

The way I got this project to install in Ubuntu 12.04 was as follows:
1.) Download a local copy via a corrected svn line:

svn co https://svn.code.sf.net/p/qavimator/code qavimator
qmake -makefile

2.) Qmake shows an error message that "TARGETDEPS" was depreciated in ~/qavimator/src/src.pro on line 88, and that "POST_TARGETDEPS" should be used instead. This was solved using:

gedit (path_where_you_downloaded_qavimator)/qavimator/src/src.pro

2.) Find line 88 and comment it out and inserted the update line after it:

# TARGETDEPS += ../libquat/release/libquat.a
  POST_TARGETDEPS += ../libquat/release/libquat.a

3.) Save the file and run:

make

4.) This threw errors about GLUT dependencies not being met therefore:

sudo apt-get install freeglut3 freeglut3-dev

5.) A repeat of step 3, produced no further errors and the following went without any further hitches:

make install

6.) From here all that was needed was to run the program from the command line:

qavmiator

Seems to run ok. Not sure how to use the program yet, but at least I got it running. :)
