Vienna package not found about intarna

[martin-raden]

Hi @Cold7
the problem is the missing pkgconfig library information of the installed ViennaRNA package.

Please use the --disable-pkg-config option in the configurecall and it should work fine..

Best,
Martin

Hi @martin-raden, thanks so much for your help. Unfortunately, adding the --disable-pkg-config flag did not resolve that problem, and the error message is still appearing. Should I reinstall Vienna from the non-precompiled version?

[martin-raden]

mhh.. the check is looking for the library headers etc. so --with-vrna should point to the folder that contains include/ViennaRNA/vrna_config.h and lib/librna.a (or .la). so this might be --with-vrna=/usr/share/ViennaRNA for you (but not sure.. please check for the location of the named files).

please check if this works:

configure --disable-pkg-config

or

configure --disable-pkg-config --with-vrna=/usr/share/ViennaRNA

using whatever path hosts the library headers and lib-files.

If that's not working you might have to relate to a local build of the vienna package. I havent tested building in debian systems, since I dont have access to them. alternatively, you might install the prebuild viennarna package via conda. with that, the above will work or you can directly install intarna via conda. ;)

Hi again @martin-raden

Thanks for your comments. I tried searching the above-mentioned files, but I was not able to locate the library. Finally, I have uninstalled the precompiled version and compiled it by myself and now it works, so I think that this can be marked as closed.

Thanks again for your help

Best,
Sebastian
