Compiling Error

[NIGHTCAST2000]

Hi everyone,
I'm having trouble compiling the lastest version of Celestia from the CVS repository.

I'm compiling it from my O.S Kubuntu Gutsy Gibbon.I use Cervisia to update and checkout the source.

Here's what I did,I right-clicked on my repository folder and selected "open terminal here".I then issued the command

Code: Select all

make -f Makefile.cvs

I then ran

Code: Select all

./configure --with-kde

.After configure finished,I then ran

Code: Select all

make

Make nearly finishes,but get stuck on this error

Code: Select all

I have put the entire compile process into text file,and uploaded it to MediaFire,the link to it should be here:

I hope somebody can help me with this one.

NIGHTCAST2000,
I checked the cvs browse at source forge and the file celsplashscreen.h has not been altered for over a year now. Maybe that file got corrupted somehow? When was the last time you compiled this on O.S Kubuntu Gutsy Gibbon?
cartrite

[NIGHTCAST2000]

Hi Carttrite,
I did the compile yesterday and that's when the error started to appear.All I did was delete the original celestia folder,did a fresh checkout with cervisia,using the checkout commands

Code: Select all

cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@celestia.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/celestia co -P celestia

from:http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Celestia/Development/Linux_platform

the other checkout command didn't work for me for some reason.

I then did a "sudo make uninstall" to remove celestia from the original locations where it installs itself,and then did a "make clean to do a fresh compile.

I hope that helps,

Regards,
NIGHTCAST2000

I'm not sure what is going on. A couple of things you may want to try.
1. Make sure the file celsplashscreen.h is in the directory.
2. open it with emacs and compare it to other header files that passed.
check for signs of corruption.
A couple of questions.
1. When was the last time you had a successful compile on this OS?
You may want to check which cvs files were updated since then and check those too. http://celestia.cvs.sourceforge.net/celestia/
2. Did you update your system's development files since your last successful compile?
I did a successful kde compile a couple of weeks ago with Suse 10.2. So everything worked on my system.
cartrite

[NIGHTCAST2000]

Hi cartrite,
I've checked the celsplashscreen.h and it is in my CVS sandbox,it is in /home/steve/Desktop/celestia/src/celestia/kde.I have downloaeded the file from the main CVS branch and compared it with the one I have.I have discovered them to be the same.

The last successful compile was a few days ago(I can't remember exactly)
I do update my system regularly whenever I can via Adept.I have recently compiled the latest version of QT(version-4.3.2) from source,but I'm not 100% sure if that would affect it.

I have also experimented with ./configure,admittedly.Yesterday,I paased the options:--theora --enable-dependency-tracking --with-gl-lib=/usr/lib --with-glut-dir=/usr/lib --with-kde --withx --with-qt-dir=/usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.3.2.

I hope that helps,

Regards,
NIGHTCAST2000

[cartrite]

I think the Qt version may be your problem. Not sure. Whoever handles the kde gui should answer that one. I don't think Celestia's ready for Qt 4? My configure line looks like this

Code: Select all

./configure --prefix=/home/cartrite/share/celestia/kde-10252007 --with-kde --with-qt-dir=/usr/lib64/qt3 --with-qt-libraries=/usr/lib64/qt3/lib64 --enable-libsuffix=64 --with-lua

I'm not sure why I have 2 entries for qt, dir and libraries, It was long ago that I started configuring with that line. It works. If it ain't broke, don't fix it someone once said. I just keep changing the prefix.
cartrite

[NIGHTCAST2000]

Hi Cartrite,
I've looked at your last reply and here's what I did.
I went to my software folder where I downloaded and compiled my QT-4.3.2 source,and ran sudo make uninstall.

After I uninstalled it,I opened my celestia folder in Konsole,then I did a make clean,thenmake -f Makefile.cvs,then./configure --with-kde and then make

but I'm getting the same error message I hope that helps,

Regards,
NIGHTCAST2000

[cartrite]

I don't think you understood me. If the .h files in the kde folder are pointing to the qt3 libs and you are using qt4 libs, that may be why your getting the error. You'll need to point to qt3 libs if you still have them on your system.
Here is part of celsplashscreen.h

Code: Select all

#include <vector>
#include <qpainter.h>
#include <qwidget.h>
#include <qstring.h>
#include <qpixmap.h>
#include <qrect.h>
#include <qcolor.h>
#include <qfont.h>


These files are part of qt3. The same files may be different in qt4. If true, this would give you the errors.
cartrite

[NIGHTCAST2000]

Hi Cartrite,
I'm sorry if I mis-understood.I'll give some more info.Not only did I had the Qt source code,I do have the QT3 and QT4 packages downloaded and installed from adept.

I'm not sure what would be the best way to set the --with-qt-dir= prefix to get configure to put it right again.Or would I have to manually edit some .h files to get them to point in the right direction?

Regards,
NIGHTCAST2000

[cartrite]

Come to think of it. I seem to remember building qt4 when I first started using Suse 10. A while ago now. There was a certain way to configure the qt build so it could be used to build other programs. Can't remember. I do remember that I could never get that qt build to compile Celestia's kde version. So I gave up and use the qt version that comes with Suse 10. Never did find out why. Maybe it was because of the reason I gave above?

I would try to set --with-qt-dir= prefix to qt3. I would not edit any .h files. That would not do any good unless you were rewriting the qt library. Bid task . Don't do it.
cartrite

[NIGHTCAST2000]

Hi Cartrite,
I've looked at your last two posts and here's what I did.

I ran "make clean" and "make -f Makefile.cvs" again.I then ran"./configure --with-kde --with-qt-dir=/usr/include/qt3"

After that I ran make,but I'm still getting the same error message

I do very much hope I don't have to re-install my entire Kubuntu O.S again

Regards,
NIGHTCAST2000

[cartrite]

./configure --with-kde --with-qt-dir=/usr/include/qt3"

The include folder holds header files

Code: Select all

--with-qt-dir=/usr/lib64/qt3

You should probably point to /usr/lib/qt3 or where ever the libs are stored.
You shouldn't have to reinstall anything. Just get the configure line right.
cartrite

[NIGHTCAST2000]

Hi Cartrite,
I've followed your advice and did (after a make clean and make -f Makefile.cvs)"./configure --with-kde --with-qt-dir=/usr/lib/qt3.

I then ran "make again,but I'm still getting the same error messages at the end.

Regards,
NIGHTCAST2000

[cartrite]

If you run just ./configure --with-kde, look at the configure output on the terminal and see what qt version it wants to use "finds" and where it is.

It looks like your qt3 libs are in /usr/share/qt3/lib so pointing to usr/lib/qt3 won't work. But if that is what you ran the first time, then you'll probably still get errors if you use --with-qt-dir=/usr/share/qt3/lib but if you haven't already, try it.. I'm at a loss if it doesn't work. Somethings wrong but I'm not sure what.

I think you could be right Cartrite,I thank you very much for your help.I'm not sure what to do to be honest.I'll give it one last try and see what happens.

I'm considering changing my Linux O.S back to Fedora 8,but I'm still thinking about it at the momnet.

I wouldn't change the OS just for this. Take a break from Linux for a while and use Windows. Maybe someone will see this and come up with an answer down the road.
A good night's sleep does the trick for me sometimes. After the break, maybe you'll realize something you did or forgot to do. Take it easy.

Hi Cartrite
I've just solved my problem.What I did was delete the celestia folder I was compiling from,and did a fresh check-out with cervisia.

I then ran the usaul commnads and celestia compiled successfully

I'd like to thank you again for trying to help me out.

NIGHTCAST2000!
