can't build latest hugin from source on ubuntu (error with flann_cpp_s)

[Jeffrey Martin]

I'm trying to build hugin from source, on Ubuntu (I installed Ubuntu today)

After some missteps with getting the latest pano13 compiled, I finally got to building Hugin, but now I'm getting this error:

[ 36%] Built target flann_cpp_s
Scanning dependencies of target flann_cpp
make[2]: *** No rule to make target `src/foreign/flann/CMakeFiles/flann_cpp.dir/build'.  Stop.
make[1]: *** [src/foreign/flann/CMakeFiles/flann_cpp.dir/all] Error 2
make: *** [all] Error 2

If anyone can explain what to do, it would be very much appreciated :-)

thanks,
Jeffrey

Hi Jeffrey,

I haven't seen that error (I'm using ubuntu maverik).
The only difference is that I'm using a separate build directory. I
usually do something like this:

$ cd hugin.hg
$ mkdir build_release
$ cd build_release
$ cmake ..
$ make

ciao
Pablo

[Jeffrey Martin]

Hi Pablo,

I tried that, but I get this flann_cpp error again.

I'm really getting frustrated - 24 hours to install hugin and still nothing. I tried everyone's suggestions, and still nothing. I might be a beginner with Ubuntu but I really didn't expect something like this.... Oh dear.

When doing this,
sudo apt-get update

I get these errors.

is there any point in continuing?

[Tim Nugent]

That path is wrong. Go here:

http://ppa.launchpad.net/hugin/nightly/ubuntu/dists/

And you can see what's available, doesn't look like karmic is supported.

[Jeffrey Martin]

Ok, obviously my version of ubuntu (9.10) is causing me problems. I'm going to upgrade to 10.10.

But wait - 32 bit or 64 bit? I have 2x cpu's and 8GB ram.

[Tim Nugent]

But which CPUs do you have? If there are 64 bit... go with that Ubuntu version

Cheers,

Tim

[Jan Martin]

I said so before in your other thread.

There is no Karmic Koala version!
Stop trying to install from a non-existent repository.

Go for Lucid Lynx  10.04. It's LTS. = Long Term Support.
Avoid the latest Ubuntu version as there will be many incompatibilities with programs not yet updated to it.
Most programs support the latest LTS version and TRY to cover the latest version.

Here is a list:

These error messages are caused by the fact that you tried to use the
nightly builds from the hugin builders ppa. This would have resultet in
binary packages being installed, so you would have been able to use a
recent huging build without having to build it yourself.

However, there are no such builds for karmic. Therefore, I advise you to
remove the hugin/nightly entries from your sources.
As there is AFAIK no command line tool for removing apt entries, yoi
will euther have to do that in the GUI (System -> Administration ->
Software Sources) or by manually editing /etc/apt/sources.list.

However, this has nothing to do with the compiling. In other words, this
error message has no relation to the problems you face trying to compile
your own, actual hugin version.

Regards

Stefan

Jan,

the confusion is coming from the fact that my friend has ubuntu 9.10 and hugin installed with no problem. but it's the version 2010.4, not the latest version.

I'm upgrading to 10.04 now.

If you upgrade than consider that on 10.10 the cmake is erroneous.

(try somehow to downgrade cmake from 2.8.2 to version 2.8.0.)

This depends on your cpu obviously. Try to master own compile ...

Kornel

[Jeffrey Martin]

10.04 is booting up now :)

now let's try this again...

[Jeffrey Martin]

Ok, after upgrading to 10.04, it works.

now i have this 2010.5.0.19ef8ad7ee6a which is the very newest version if I'm not mistaken.

so it seems that my problems came from trying to install this newest hugin on ubuntu 9.10.

Thank you everybody for all your help and advice. Sorry to take up so much space on this forum with my problems. Now everything is working I'll try to be quiet :-)))

Hi all,

I had the same error with flann_cpp (I'm also building in a separate
subdirectory). No cache files to be deleted. I had given up and checked out
the stable 2010.4 branch which built fine.

So now I started looking at it again, and found during the configure process
the following:
CMake Error: CMake can not determine linker language for target:flann_cpp
CMake Error: Cannot determine link language for target "flann_cpp".
which seems to be the reason for the missing make rule. Maybe some cmake-Guru
knows how to proceed there.

My system is a 64-bit Opensuse 11.2

Cheers,

Pit

Hi all,

I had the same error with flann_cpp (I'm also building in a separate
subdirectory). No cache files to be deleted. I had given up and checked out
the stable 2010.4 branch which built fine.

My system is a 32-bit Uhu-Linux 2.1. The hugin is 2011.0.0 beta 2.

Any idea?

Lajos

[Pit Suetterlin]

Hi Lajos,

see the 'Hugin-2011.0_beta2 released' thread - you'll have to upgrade cmake.

In what way erroneous? I've been using cmake 2.8.2 on my Kubuntu 10.10
system for months and it has always done precisely what it's supposed
to do.

Kay

[Kornel Benko]

Creating debian package with "make package" will create a deb file which includes a tar file.
This tar file normally includes directories and regular files.
But cpack from the 2.8.2 version of cmake creates only the regular files.
That is, installing with dpkg is ok if the destination directories are already there.

The target directory creation is missing.

...is just more broken than in previous and latest version. AFAIK it has
always been "broken" in that the Debian packages build with CMake/CPack don't
pass basic Debian tests / policies. Google for a thread in this list where
Andreas Metzler gives the details.

Using the combination of
make package && sudo dpkg -i <NAME_OF_THE_GENERATED PACKAGE>
is barely better than using
make && sudo make install

If you are serious about building debian packages use dpkg-buildpackage

Some instructions (geared at producing a package for a PPA on Launchpad) are
at [0].

Theoretically it would be possible to follow the above instructions and build
binary snapshot of any version of Hugin including development branches; and
distribute them from a Launchpad PPA (any Launchpad member can have their own
PPA), but so far nobody has gone there yet.

It is. But still I am using this build-process without problems. (Until now I was using the 2.8.0 version, but since some days I use the 2.8.4 version on ubuntu 10.10)

(Got it from "ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/c/cmake/"

cmake_2.8.4-2_amd64.deb

cmake-data_2.8.4-2_all.deb

cmake-qt-gui_2.8.4-2_amd64.deb

)

Naturally I don't follow you here. Installing through package makes it easy to deinstall also.

Ok, maybe it's valid for me only ...

An alternative which I use is checkinstall, which works even when the
make package doesn't. I'm sure it's not the best solution, but it
works for me (and as Kornel says, it's easier to de-install).

Now the compile/package for hugin 2011.0.0 beta2 solved on UHU-Linux
2.1. Thanks.
Newer cmake build (2.8.4), new cmake need upgrade the libarchive to 2.8.4.

Now another problem, when i use help->about, hugin crash.

Same here (with the 2011.0.0 beta2 tarball)

Confirmed, that one(*) also doesn't crash for me.

easier than `sudo make uninstall` ?

[Kornel Benko]

Yes. Suppose you make a new build, with different (maybe renamed) files or directories.

Now the `sudo make uninstall` would try to uninstall the _new_ data, leaving some old data installed.
