Ubuntu Feisty Fawn Packages

by Gary "ChunkyKs" Briggs · in Torque Game Engine · 04/19/2007 (9:15 pm) · 7 replies

Mostly because I'm lazy and want to keep a record of this for myself. From a fresh install of feisty fawn, you need these packages for TGE.1.5.1 to compile:
libpng-dev
libfreetype6-dev
g++
libgl1-mesa-dev
freeglut-dev
nasm
libxft-dev
libsdl-dev

For the lazy out there [as I will be next time I come to read this post...], copy and paste this line:
sudo apt-get install libpng-dev libfreetype6-dev g++ libgl1-mesa-dev freeglut-dev nasm libxft-dev libsdl-dev

Might want to try aptitude rather than apt-get it's much better at catching dependency issues, IMHO.
Great work though, I'm going to make a shell based installer for TGE 1.5 that will download all dependencies and then patch torque so it can build w/o problems.

If apt-get is missing dependency issues, then that's a bug in apt-get, and you should probably let the fine folks at ubuntu or debian know - they've been using apt to solve dependencies since debian was invented in 1993.

PS I've never seen apt do anything wrong, personally.

I used Synaptic Package Manager found on the menu under "System > Administration > Synaptic Package Manager", and I was able to compile TGE 1.5 with no problems.

Hello,

I'm on Ubuntu Feisty fawn and I've got this error while compiling :

make[1]: execvp: ../lib/xiph/linux/checklinks.sh: Permission non accordee
make[1]: *** [out.GCC4.DEBUG/torqueDemo_DEBUG.bin] Erreur 127
make: *** [default] Erreur 2

(translation if needed :
Permission non accordee = Permission not allowed
Erreur = Error)

Here's the input before compiling :

make -f mk/configure.mk OS=LINUX COMPILER=GCC4 BUILD=DEBUG
make clean
make

I don't get it, I tried a sudo make, same Error 127.

Any ideas would help.
