Errors in compiling radiance in Ubuntu 8.1

Hi Jack,

I have used ./makeall install for compiling radiance and not scons . The
errors encountered during the compilation process is attached in the
text file. Kindly let me know whether these errors are fatal and how to
rectify these errors.

OS is Ubuntu 8.1

GCC version is 4.3

Regards,

Ganesh.

Hi Ganesh,

I have not used the scons tool to compile radiance before. However, it
looks to me like these errors relate to testing compiled radiance
commands rather than actually doing the compile. To assure yourself of a
clean compile it might make more sense to use the " makeall" script to
do a fresh compile:

./makeall clean
./makeall install

then if you get errors you can report those as they will relate to the
actual compile process.

Do people actually use Scons to build radiance? Is this something that
should still be maintained or perhaps removed?

Dear Developers,

I am a new user to radiance. I have compiled the Radiance V3.9 code in
Ubuntu 8.1 and there were some errors during the compilation. I ran the
tests in ray/test directory and the results are attached in text file.
Kindly let me know whether the radiance installation is alright or I
have to reinstall them.

Compiler :gcc 4.3

- you're missing some -dev packages. Look which header files are missing, search
which package they're included in and install them
- if you want to install to /usr/local, you might need to run the install part
as root

The better solution for you might be to run

sudo apt-get install radiance radiance-materials radiance-doc

as Ubuntu 8.10 ships with radiance 3R9.
Don't forget to read /usr/share/doc/radiance/README.Debian afterwards.

Cheers,

Bernd

Ganesh.

One problem is that you don't have X11 development files installed (like
"X11/Xlib.h", "X11/Xutil.h"). Add the package from your repository. That
should deal with most of the problems.

Then you don't have permissions to add or delete files in "/usr/local/"
where Radiance would be installed by default. You have to run "./makeall
install" as a "sudo" command or as root.

Thomas
