problem installing celestia 1.3.0 into Knoppix (debian)

[adyga]

plz help, I am using Knoppix (sorta Debian unstable) with KDE3.1 interface only, I tried to install it from the source package by:
./configure --with-kde
but I had an error, and cant figure out what is the problem it tells that its in the config.log , well lots of info there and I am completely lost !!
HELP PLZ !!

[Christophe]

We can't help if you don't tell us what the problem is. You need to post here the end of the output of ./configure --with-kde and also the end of the config.log file (where the error occurs).

You're probably missing some library or some header file (devel package).

[adyga]

well, the config.log is too big about 117 KB !! and in the end there is no useful info such as:

Code: Select all

#define HAVE_UNISTD_H 1
#define HAVE_VSNPRINTF 1
#define KDELIBSUFF ""
#define PACKAGE "celestia"
#define PACKAGE_BUGREPORT ""
#define PACKAGE_NAME ""
#define PACKAGE_STRING ""
#define PACKAGE_TARNAME ""
#define PACKAGE_VERSION ""
#define SIZEOF_CHAR 1
#define SIZEOF_CHAR_P 4
#define SIZEOF_INT 4
#define SIZEOF_LONG 4
#define STDC_HEADERS 1
#define VERSION "1.3.0"
#define ksize_t socklen_t
#endif
#ifdef __cplusplus
#include <stdlib.h>

configure: exit 1

so how to post 117 KB log file ???????

[Christophe]

Send me your config.log file by e-mail at chris@teyssier.org

I'm glad you found a solution to the Knoppix installation problem Adiga.

[adyga]

thanks man
all my attempt to install celestia over linux (knoppix) was to get rid of window$ soon
keep up with the good work Celestia Community !!

If you want to take part you could contribute a polish translation :-) how does that sound? Of course you don't have to.

[adyga]

man, I will be glad to do it, I speak arabic as well
how did you know that I know polish ?? maybe from my IP logged to forums ?
well I will give it a try, but I can't promise you

Nop, from the .pl ccTLD in your email adress :-)

well I will give it a try, but I can't promise you :oops: :D

Don't worry if you can't, but if you start working on it don't forget to post a message in the other thread so that we don't have somebody else working on the same translation(s).

adyga:

After looking at your config.log, it seems not to find the Qt development library (or at least the include files). Could you send me the output of this command?

$ find / -name qapplication.h -print

Maybe you didn't install the Qt development library, or it's installed in a nonstandard location.

[adyga]

hi, jamarsa, after waiting for over than 3 minutes for the command to finish:

Code: Select all

/usr/include/qt3/qapplication.h

hmm, ?

hehe Christophe , I feel so dumb lol

Code: Select all

Nop, from the .pl ccTLD in your email adress :-)
