Haven't seen that. I could check with pd (0.)43 again to see whether that's the bug that GridFlow had with it.
this appears also on pd-extended-0.42.5
With any patch, or only those using [display] or [#see] ?
(libs not found are libdc1394, libmpeg3, quicktime, ... although they are all installed and can all be found in /usr/include)
Send me your config.log.
here it is: http://pastebin.com/cPKhKSWQ
the nasm problem is fixed in 9.14 (it's a ./configure problem ; you can fix it using --force-nasm)
dc1394 is a bigger problem : the API was changed, and thus part of gridflow/src/dc1394.cxx would have to be rewritten, and I have no such camera. In addition, the laptop I just bought doesn't have any FireWire port (but I still have the other laptop).
libmpeg3 says «found» in your config.log.
quicktimehw also says «found» in your config.log (after several attempts to find it).
quicktimeapple can't possibly be found on a Linux OS.
most things listed by ./configure are optional (g++ and libstdc++ are the only mandatory parts).
it seems that my friend needs those abstractions
Can't your friend use the ones bundled in the version of GridFlow that will be loaded ? No functionality got removed, but many patches depend on changes in abstractions, and some abstractions may depend on changes in other externals that are part of GridFlow, so, it's way better to not mix and match parts of different versions.
I thought that the bugs in the patch (random freezes, shutdown etc) might be related to those missing canvas/objects but I'm not sure..
I haven't had random shutdowns for three years now, and I don't remember ever having random freezes. If you think that the problem has to do with GUI objects, try making smaller versions of your patches that use less GUI objects and see whether the error messages and/or the freezes and/or the crashes disappear. You may notice patterns that will narrow down the possibilities, and then perhaps you'll have enough information to be able to write a bug report.
ps: I uploaded
upgraded ?
to ruby-1.9.1 just in case but same problems with building (and I don't see any new gcc/g++ in the ubuntu repos)
Not necessary. I don't run ruby 1.9.x anymore, only 1.8.x, and the GridFlow 9.14 ./configure doesn't trigger the ruby [BUG] anymore.
