ns3-dev installation error

[inam]

Hi All,

I am trying to install the ns3-dev, for which I am following https://www.nsnam.org/support/faq/setup/

But after the clone step using:

hg clone http://code.nsnam.org/ns-3-allinone
cd ns-3-allinone 

./download.py

and I run the 

./build.py

I get the following output:

# Build NetAnim

 =>  qmake -v

qmake: could not exec '/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt4/bin/qmake': No such file or directory

Can anyone help, please?

Hello Inam,

From what I can get from your log is that, you have a pybindgen in parallel to your ns-3-dev folder, but it is not yet built, hence the version number is not generated. 

Try going to pybindgen and building it as per its readme instruction.
