Can't install Valhalla on Linux Mint 17.3 with UbuntuGIS unstable
Closed this issue · 3 comments
Hi folks,
Following the instructions, i tried to install Valhalla on my Linux Mint 17.3 Cinnamon 64-bit machine but errored out with the following messages.
The problem seems to be a spatial library conflict.
For your information, i'm using the UbuntuGIS unstable PPA for Trusty (deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntugis/ubuntugis-unstable/ubuntu trusty main).
~> grep -cF trusty /etc/lsb-release0
0
# Add the PPAs and update
~> sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:kevinkreiser/prime-server
~> sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:valhalla-routing/valhalla
~> sudo apt-get update
# All good; output omitted
~> sudo apt-get install -y valhalla-bin

disclaimer i dont know anything about linux mint. if its similar to trusty then it should work though..
first question, what is the output of:
sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:kevinkreiser/libsodium
sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:kevinkreiser/libpgm
sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:kevinkreiser/zeromq3
sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:kevinkreiser/czmq
these additional repos are needed because of backports of newer versions of zmq libraries not available on trusty.
second, it looks like ubuntuGIS unstable might depend on libgeos-c1v5. indeed on trusty we target libgeos-c1 because that is the latest stable version on trusty. it seems the libgeos maintainers have marked the newer version libgeos-c1v5 (which we target in xenial) as breaking the older stable version. because of this im not sure how we can actually use the ppa directly since the ubuntu gis unstable builds dependencies conflict with valhallas dependencies.
do you have any desire to upgrade to a newer version of linux mint that is equivalent to xenial? otherwise the only option for you is to compile valhalla from source. let me know how you want to proceed
Adding those PPAs goes smoothly, then trying to install valhalla-bin yields the following errors, which are similar to last time.
sudo apt-get install -y valhalla-bin

So looks like the problem is libgeos-c1 vs libgeos-c1v5.
I'll update to Linux Mint 18 (based on Ubuntu 16) this week, which i've been meaning to do anyway, then try again.
Thanks for your help.
Whoops, forgot to update this thread.
Installation works on Linux Mint 18 by following the Mapzen directions.
All good.
