Build problems (Linux) about desurium

[Jookia]

Does this happen without install-deps.sh (stupid question, but have to make sure you didn't cause the problem yourself)

[matthiaskrgr]

Hi, I'm another archlinux user, and I got the same issue here.

I wonder if someone could make an arch aur building script which builds desurium.

[lodle]

the second error on fedora looks like a missing libgconfig. Try changing the target for gtk in libs.gyp from settings to none and see if that fixes your first issue.

[boskee]

Desurium also fails to build on Ubuntu 11.10. I will push my fix and send pull request shortly.

[a-mroz]

Ok, I made some progress :)

• Arch:
  I removed Desurium sources and cloned it again (probably working on the same copy from two different systems wasn't the best idea...), changed 'settings' to 'none' in libs.gyp and it worked :) Didn't build cef yet, but I hope that it will be ok.
• Fedora:
  I somehow managed to build wxWidgets, but later there are some problems with libnotify:

Package libnotify was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libnotify.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'libnotify' found

while trying to load build.gyp

Later I will try again from scratch and see if that helps.

[datacompboy]

This error:
Exception: Target ../src/third_party/libs.gyp:gtk#target has an invalid target type 'settings'. Must be one of executable/loadable_module/static_library/shared_library/none.

fixed by change in ../src/third_party/libs.gyp type: settings to correct shared_library / static_library

[boskee]

@Sadam36 Just install libnotify-devel rpm. That should be added to install-deps.sh, along with libnotify-dev for Debian/Ubuntu.

[a-mroz]

@boskee I saw libnotify installed, but didn't think about libnotify-devel, thanks.

Now I am having problems with building cef - third_party/build_lin/cef.log ends with:

make: *** [out/Release/obj.target/base_i18n/base/i18n/break_iterator.o] Error 1

I found here that it might be connected with having gcc 4.6 instead of 4.4, so installed gcc 4.4 from AUR, changed /third_party/chromium/src/Makefile but it didn't work (probably I should change other file...). I will try later build on fedora, and copying libcef_desura.so from desura.

[Jookia]

I gave up a while back on building cef.

[LarryRotgut]

After running /BuildCef.sh and it failed I did this to get it to compile:

$ cd ../chromium/src
$ rm -r out
$ cd cef
$ /usr/bin/python tools/gyp_cef cef.gyp -I cef.gypi -Dwerror=
$ cd ..
$ make cef_desura BUILDTYPE=Debug -j4
$ mv out/Debug/lib.target/libcef_desura.so ../../../../build_out/debug_lin/lib/
$ mv out/Debug/lib.target/libffmpegsumo.so ../../../../build_out/debug_lin/lib/

By default cef fails to build if there are any warnings since warnings are treated as errors. You have to specify "-Dwerror=" to get around it.

[Jookia]

Hmm. Could you put that in a pull request?

[higuita]

i'm on a slackware64 and manage to build desurium just after the release, but not anymore...
with the latest tip
After changing the in the libs.gyp all type: settings to type: shared_library i gave it another try and now its giving errors the build in the wx_controls and uicore:

any ideia?

[Jookia]

Use the latest libnotify, or go to the line and screw with the ifdef.

[a-mroz]

@LarryRotgut thanks, It helped :)
I also built Desurium on Fedora - there was problem with lstdc++ while building bootloader. I tried different packages and making symlinks, but no luck. What helped was removing -static-libstdc++ from Desurium/src/executable/bootloader_lin/bootloader_lin.gyp ;)

[aljones15]

in gentoo I had to replace all the type settings with none in order to the libs.gyp errors to go away. anyway compiling now hopefully it'll work.

[Jookia]

A reminder to you guys -- If you fix stuff, please submit a pull request.

[Jookia]

I fixed the settings -> none error on my fork. Will push soon.
