Problem solved with cvs version!

Dear list, when trying to load Gem within pd I get the following error

/usr/local/lib/pd/extra/Gem.pd_linux: undefined symbol: glUniform2i Gem: can't load library

which has been reported before on this list. It has been proposed to compile Gem against another OpenGL version (instead of using aptitude install gem) or/and to install the Ubuntu's Bleeding Edge Drivers by Alberto Milone.

I would like to try that but unfortunately I cannot even run configure for compiling Gem. I have done the following steps:

1. Downloaded GemLibs & gem-0.90.0 and copied them both to the same

src directory such that they are neighboured.

2. Run makeauxlibs within GemLibs. Compiled without errors.

3. Entered gem-0.90.0/src/Gnu (deleting config.cache) and tried to run

./configure which gives the following output:

creating cache ./config.cache HEAD: /usr/include /usr/local/include ../../../GemLibs/ LIBS: ../../../GemLibs/ /usr/local/lib /usr/local/src checking host system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu Configuring for Gem.pd_linux checking for gnu make... yes checking for c++... c++ checking whether the C++ compiler (c++ ) works... yes checking whether the C++ compiler (c++ ) is a cross-compiler... no checking whether we are using GNU C++... yes checking whether c++ accepts -g... yes checking for gcc... gcc checking whether the C compiler (gcc ) works... yes checking whether the C compiler (gcc ) is a cross-compiler... no checking whether we are using GNU C... yes checking whether gcc accepts -g... yes checking for a BSD compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c checking whether make sets ${MAKE}... yes checking for sh... sh checking how to run the C preprocessor... gcc -E checking for X... libraries , headers checking for dnet_ntoa in -ldnet... no checking for dnet_ntoa in -ldnet_stub... no checking for gethostbyname... yes checking for connect... yes checking for remove... yes checking for shmat... yes checking for IceConnectionNumber in -lICE... yes checking for MMX... checking MMX found... .: 2315: makeauxlibs: not found

The script makeauxlibs is existing in this very directory. No idea why it can't be found. The path ../../../GemLibs/ is as already mentioned leading correctly to the GemLibs directory.

4. I tried to run ./src/Gnu/configure from the gem-0.90.0 directory.

This leads to the following output:

creating cache ./config.cache HEAD: /usr/include /usr/local/include ../../../GemLibs/ LIBS: ../../../GemLibs/ /usr/local/lib /usr/local/src checking host system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu Configuring for Gem.pd_linux checking for gnu make... yes checking for c++... c++ checking whether the C++ compiler (c++ ) works... yes checking whether the C++ compiler (c++ ) is a cross-compiler... no checking whether we are using GNU C++... yes checking whether c++ accepts -g... yes checking for gcc... gcc checking whether the C compiler (gcc ) works... yes checking whether the C compiler (gcc ) is a cross-compiler... no checking whether we are using GNU C... yes checking whether gcc accepts -g... yes checking for a BSD compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c checking whether make sets ${MAKE}... yes checking for sh... sh checking how to run the C preprocessor... gcc -E checking for X... libraries , headers checking for dnet_ntoa in -ldnet... no checking for dnet_ntoa in -ldnet_stub... no checking for gethostbyname... yes checking for connect... yes checking for remove... yes checking for shmat... yes checking for IceConnectionNumber in -lICE... yes checking for MMX... checking MMX found... checking for main in -lX11... yes checking for main in -lXext... yes checking for XF86VidModeGetAllModeLines in -lXxf86vm... no checking for sin in -lm... yes checking for main in -lz... yes checking for glInitNames in -lGL... yes checking for gluLookAt in -lGLU... yes checking for png_set_compression_level in -lpng... yes checking for TIFFOpen in -ltiff... yes checking for jpeg_read_header in -ljpeg... yes test: 3228: ==: unexpected operator test: 3234: ==: unexpected operator checking for FTGLPixmapFont in -lftgl... yes test: 1: ==: unexpected operator checking for open in -lgltt... no checking alternate -lgltt in ../../../GemLibs/ /usr/local/lib /usr/local/src... find: ../../../GemLibs/: No such file or directory configure: error: Build gltt library somewhere

So, I tried to compile gem with the option --without-gltt / --without-gltt which didn't solve the config-error. Then I tried to install the gltt library leading to more errors.

5. After successfully installing the freetype-lib I run ./configure

--with-ttf-dir /usr/local/src/freetype-2.1.10/ --with-ttf-includes /usr/local/src/freetype-2.1.10/include/ --with-ttf-libraries /usr/local/lib for the gltt libs. The Makefile was created and running make led to

/bin/sh ./libtool --mode=link g++ -g -O2 -Lyes -o libgltt.la -rpath /usr/local/lib FTBitmapFont.lo FTEngine.lo FTFace.lo FTFont.lo FTGlyph.lo FTGlyphBitmap.lo FTGlyphPixmap.lo FTGlyphVectorizer.lo FTInstance.lo FTPixmapFont.lo GLTTBitmapFont.lo GLTTFont.lo GLTTGlyphTriangulator.lo GLTTOutlineFont.lo GLTTPixmapFont.lo GLTTGlyphPolygonizer.lo GLTTGlyphPolygonizerHandler.lo -lXmu -lXi -lXt -lSM -lICE -lXext -lX11 -lm cd: 5059: can't cd to yes libtool: link: cannot determine absolute directory name of `yes' make: *** [libgltt.la] Error 1

And well the Makefile looks rather strange with for example:

TTF_INCLUDES = -Iyes TTF_LDFLAGS = -Lyes ..... ttf_includes = yes ttf_libraries = yes

The latter is probably rather something for the gtll-list, but maybe someone had that problem already?

I would also appreciate a gem-compilation without the font support if anyone knows how this is possible.

Thanks a lot in advance, Jeannette.
