apt-get install sextractor does not place or creates the binary correctly
Opened this issue · 5 comments
I'm installing sextractor and scamp in a docker container based on debian and while scamp creates an executable scamp sextractor does not. I also tried in a Linux Neon install which is based on Ubuntu.
Running dpkg -L sextractor shows.

The versions installed are (from apt-list):
sextractor/stable,now 2.25.0+ds-3 all [installed]
scamp/stable,now 2.10.0-2 amd64 [installed]
Thanks in advance!.
Even though this is not the expected solution I was able to install sextractor from github, this is what I added to my Dockerfile
libgl1-mesa-glx sextractor scamp where already there so maybe you don't need them.
FROM python:3.9
# included the base image here for reference.
# there are some other generic stuff here
# originally I just needed to add sextractor and scamp and would get a working sextractor
RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y libgl1-mesa-glx sextractor scamp libatlas-base-dev libatlas3-base libfftw3-3 libfftw3-dev libtool autoconf
# basically the instructions from the INSTALL file in the root of this repo.
RUN mkdir -p /home/simon/sources/ && cd /home/simon/sources/ && git clone https://github.com/astromatic/sextractor.git && cd sextractor && sh ./autogen.sh && ./configure && make -j && make install
# and whatever else you need to do with your image creation here.
I hope someone can fix the deb package or if someone wants to teach me I can take care of it.
Thank you for this! I thought I was going crazy ;)
Unfortunately I can't help you much with the versions that come with Ubuntu or Debian, which are packaged by other people. I do provide optimized versions of the packages (instructions here). I am currently re-factoring the building process for those packages in my spare time (moving from INTEL icc to the INTEL icx compiler). It should be complete by mid-October I think.
For completeness, please note that sextractor has been renamed by debian maintainers as source-extractor, so I guess you have to check your installation with
dpkg -L source-extractor
