Hallo, João Miguel Pais hat gesagt: // João Miguel Pais wrote:
I just installed ubuntu on my thinkpad, and was trying to compile pd
there. Apt-get and the package administrator only install an earlier
version, so I guess it's necessary for now to do it from the tar.gz file.
(I would recommend to get a full checkout from CVS once, so you will be up to date all the time without having to download everything again, "cvs up" will get you all changes.)
The compilation fails, because the c compiler can't output the right file
format (?). Did this already happened to someone? I'm sure it's a basic
thing, but for me that's not basic at all. I join the config.log file, if
it isn't getting too personal.
You're probably missing a lot of stuff which Ubuntu's default install may think is unnecessary. (While I think, a lot of stuff installed by Ubuntu is unnecessary, but that's another story... ;) Normally if you install the "build-essential" package your compiler should work. For Pd you also need several "-dev" packages, like libasound-dev etc. The easiest way to get these on a Debian system is to install the build-dependencies for the puredata package with "apt-get build-dep puredata".
