installation issue for dssp

Closed this issue · 1 comments

Hi,

I'm trying to install DSSP so, as indicated here https://github.com/PDB-REDO/dssp, I need libmcfp to do so.

However in the last step of the installation (cmake --install .) I have the following error:
-- Install configuration: ""
-- Installing: /usr/local/include/mcfp.hpp
CMake Error at cmake_install.cmake:41 (file):
file INSTALL cannot copy file
"/home/charlieccp/libmcfp/include/mcfp/mcfp.hpp" to
"/usr/local/include/mcfp.hpp": Permission denied.

Note that all other steps worked without any problem.

Could you please advice me on what to do now?

I'm using ubuntu on windows.

Thanks for your time.

Best wishes,
Charlotte

In the config step of libmcfp, specify:

-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$HOME/.local

Similar to to what is specified in the libcifpp readme.
