Compiling the source code

[Newbe]

Hello,
I'm trying to compile the client on my own but aren't able to...

I'm getting this error:

Code: Select all

Could NOT find PCRE (missing: PCRE_LIBRARIES)

although I have pcre installed on my system :

Code: Select all

rpm -qe pcre
pcre-7.8-3.fc12.x86_64

Any idea where I could find needed libraries?

thx in advance!

You also need the developer package of PCRE that includes the header source files. If you can't get it, download the latest pcre source package and compile & install this yourself.

I installed 2 more packages :

Code: Select all

rpm -qa | grep pcre
pcre-static-7.8-3.fc12.x86_64
pcre-7.8-3.fc12.x86_64
pcre-devel-7.8-3.fc12.x86_64

Still no success in compiling.
Can you take a look at this list of packages and tell me which could contain needed headers? :

Code: Select all

gambas2-gb-pcre.x86_64 : Gambas2 component package for pcre
lua-rex.x86_64 : Regular expression handling library for Lua
ocaml-pcre.x86_64 : Perl compatibility regular expressions (PCRE) for OCaml
ocaml-pcre-devel.i686 : Development files for ocaml-pcre
ocaml-pcre-devel.x86_64 : Development files for ocaml-pcre
opensips-regex.x86_64 : RegExp via PCRE library

Well, I haven't used Red Hat in many years and I'm on Debian myself so I can't comment on the packets that you need. pcre-devel-7.8-3.fc12.x86_64 looks + the regular pcre packet (you need both of course) look good to me. Ignore the rest of the packages on your list.
Why does cmake fail? Post the complete cmake output.

there :

Code: Select all

CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake/Modules/FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake:57 (MESSAGE):

Cmake cannot find your pcre libs. Try the command ldconfig as root to update your dll database.

[Newbe]

Didn't work...

Code: Select all

$ locate libpcre
/lib64/libpcre.so.0
/lib64/libpcre.so.0.0.1
/usr/lib64/libpcrecpp.so.0
/usr/lib64/libpcrecpp.so.0.0.0
/usr/lib64/libpcreposix.so.0
/usr/lib64/libpcreposix.so.0.0.0

What libs are missing?

[Heiko]

ok try making a link /usr/lib/libpcre.so to /lib64/libpcre.so.0 and run ldconfig

EDIT: The second alternative is to use qmake instead of cmake. This is more configurable for you.
cd mudlet/src
qmake
post output of qmake if this fails
otherwise make to compile

qmake-qt4 didn't give me any errors, but make did...

I'm not sure if I made it correctly, I typed:
qmake-qt -project
qmake-qt -makefile

[Heiko]

Your commands deleted the correct project files You need to copy the original mudlet/src/src.pro to mudlet/src again to continue and type "qmake-qt4" again.

You need to install the qt-4 development packet to get the qt headers.
