Yade

QGLViewer qt4 problem debian

Asked by Christian Jakob

Hello again,

 Now I try to install yade on debian lenny.
 This time I get an error with qglviewer and qt4 while compiling yade.

me@debian $ scons
 scons: Reading SConscript files ...
 @@@ Using profile default (scons.profile-default) @@@
 Eigen 3 math library will be used
 Yade version is `bzr2818' (bzr2818), installed files will be suffixed with
 `-bzr2818'.
 All intermediary files will be in

 ERROR: Unable to compile with optional feature `qt4'.

 If you are sure, remove it from features (scons
 features=featureOne,featureTwo for example) and build again.
 Note: Building with Qt4 implies the QGLViewer library installed (package
 libqglviewer-qt4-dev package in debian/ubuntu, libQGLViewer in RPM-based
 distributions)

root@debian # find /usr/lib -name *glviewer*
 /usr/lib/libqglviewer.a
 /usr/lib/libqglviewer.so.2.2
 /usr/lib/libqglviewer.prl
 /usr/lib/libqglviewer.so.2
 /usr/lib/libqglviewer.so
 /usr/lib/libqglviewer.so.2.2.6

root@debian # aptitude search libqgl
 i libqglviewer-dev
 i A libqglviewer2

 config.log said:

 /usr/bin/ld: error: cannot find -lQGLViewer

 To solve this problem I tried this:

root@debian # ln -s /usr/lib/libqglviewer.so /usr/lib/libQGLViewer.so
root@debian # ln -s /usr/lib/libqglviewer.so /usr/lib/libQGLViewer-qt4.so
root@debian # ln -s /usr/lib/libqglviewer.so /usr/lib/libqglviewer-qt4.so

 But it doesn't solve the problem. It only changed the error message in
 config.log to:

 error: undefined reference to 'QGLViewer::QGLViewer(QWidget*, QGLWidget
 const*, QFlags<Qt::WindowType>)'

 Cheers,

 Christian.

Hi,

libqglviewer-dev and libqglviewer2 are QT3-oriented [1] and [2], but Yade uses QT4. That is why you have to use libqglviewer-qt4-dev and libqglviewer-qt4-2 instead, which are not in repos of Lenny [3] and [4]. You can try to install it separately.

> Eigen 3 math library will be used
Do you have eigen3 in your system?

Maybe I should upgrade to Squeeze?! ...

Anyone another idea?

Hi,

I think the better solution would be to install yade at least on
Debian Squeeze. Better on "testing".

Probably libqglviewer-qt4-2 has some dependency problems with Lenny.

Hey there! As an automated bot, I've scanned through some relevant threads and compiled a summary for your reference. Feel free to explore further by clicking the links provided below.

Title: "Problems with scons PREFIX=/home/daniela/YADE"
User faced issues with Yade while rebuilding with 'scons clean' and './yade-bzr2880 --debug --rebuild'. Adjusting chunkSize to 2 or more resolved the problem. Daniela used yade-daily which worked, and asked if it's possible to run simulation parallel with this software. Anton suggested running debug mode with './yade-bzr2880 --debug'. The issue is now resolved, and Yade-daily will be updated periodically automatically for those who do not need to modify the code.

Title: "compilation failed on debian wheezy"
The user encountered an error related to redefinition of previously defined code while building a new version of YADE, which was resolved by jduriez's suggestion. The issue persists even with the latest git version on Wheezy and is expected to be fixed when python-git 0.3.2~RC1-1 migrates to Wheezy. Cleaning the scons.profile from 'garbage' is also recommended.

Title: "Problem since I installed Ubuntu 16 Xenial"
User inquires about Yade version, Anton recommends using either the latest stable or trunk version. The user successfully syncs forked repository to trunk after following GitHub guidelines.
