Several things to note:
- (For CloudLab users) Do not set the
$MY_INSTALL_DIRto be within your home directory. CloudLab will erase everything in your home directory even when you take a snapshot of disk image. - (For Ubuntu 18.04 users) Use Option A in the following post to update cmake: https://askubuntu.com/questions/355565/how-do-i-install-the-latest-version-of-cmake-from-the-command-line.
- (For Ubuntu 18.04 users) Update your g++ to the latest versions 9.x.x:
$ sudo apt install software-properties-common
$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-toolchain-r/test
$ sudo apt install gcc-9 g++-9- Avoid using
make -j. - Run the following command before compiling our code:
$ export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$MY_INSTALL_DIR/lib/pkgconfig
$ export PATH=$PATH:$MY_INSTALL_DIR/bin
$ make
