Compilng Celestia SVN on Fedora15

[NIGHTCAST2000]

Hi alll,
I have a problem with Celestia. I have downloaded the latest SVN version(Rev5163). I have tried with either gtk,KDE,glut,and qt as a frontend. THe trouble is I keep getting this error when running make:

Code: Select all

/../thirdparty/Eigen/Eigen/src/Core/util/Memory.h:343:13: error: ‘ptrdiff_t’ does not name a type

My graphics card is a Nvidia Geforce 6,800 GT (Nv40) with the latest Nouveau Driver from the git repositories.

Having looking at the forum today, I see these discussions using the QT4 creator (I have installed it using yum) I would like to know on exactly how to use it on the downloaded SVN code. As far as I know I have the dependencies installed...

Regards,
NIGHTCAST2000

Hi john Van Vliet,
I'd like to thank you for the advice. I had put in

Code: Select all

#include <cstddef>

in the top of /thirdparty/Eigen/Eigen/src/Core/util/Memory.h like this:

Code: Select all

#include <cstddef>
#ifndef EIGEN_MEMORY_H
#define EIGEN_MEMORY_H

// FreeBSD 6 seems to have 16-byte aligned malloc
// See http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base/stable/6/lib/libc/stdlib/malloc.c?view=markup
// FreeBSD 7 seems to have 16-byte aligned malloc except on ARM and MIPS architectures
// See http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base/stable/7/lib/libc/stdlib/malloc.c?view=markup
#if defined(__FreeBSD__) && !defined(__arm__) && !defined(__mips__)
#define EIGEN_FREEBSD_MALLOC_ALREADY_ALIGNED 1
#else
#define EIGEN_FREEBSD_MALLOC_ALREADY_ALIGNED 0
#endif]

the addition of the code is on line 26 in that file. The full path is: "/trunk/celestia/thirdparty/Eigen/Eigen/src/Core/util/Memory.h"

The compilation got me a lot further than before,but unfortunately,I've hit another snag.

Code: Select all

I've had a look at the ./configure options to see if I could direct the compilation to my packaged verion of Mesa,or point it to my git version.

Hi John,
I guess I wouldn't blame you for not going through the "growing pains" of going through form one version of GCC to another. I do vaguely remember those times from upgrading from one distribution version to another. Personally, GCC-4.6 hasn't been too bad,it does throw the odd wobbly now and again,but generally it has been fine. Hopefully,when GCC-4.6.1 comes out,things will be better. I'll see if I can get GCC-4.5 from yum and I'll use that for the time being if I do have it available.

I would like to thank you for trying to help me out John.
