compiling on manjaro linux

Closed this issue · 6 comments

Hello. Very thanks to your very usefull software. I try to install xc on manjaro linux with .sh installation file, but for xc_basic it gives me this boos error:

-- Could NOT find Boost
Unable to find the Boost header files. Please set BOOST_ROOT to the root directory containing Boost or BOOST_INCLUDEDIR to the directory containing Boost's headers.

I work with python and i don't underestand what this mean? thanks

Thanks to you Ebrahim
The installation script doesn't find the development files for boost libraries. The package that contains those files in Ubuntu is called libboostX.XX-dev (where X.XX is the version). If you can find the corresponding package in Manjaro the problem will be fixed.

It can be the boost version too. I'll try to tell CMake that any recent version of boost libraries will do it.

thanks. from this guid i had think that script will resolve needed dependency packages needed to compile XC as mentioned on page.. i will try it on ubuntu, because my pacman in manjaro linux is broken. thanks alot.

installing dependencys works on debian and ubuntu only. Just read the readme carfully. I may try on manjaro in a virtual environment to update a the scripts for manjaro.

Hi Bernd, thank you.

By the way I've already merged xc_basic into xc_utils so no need to deal with xc_basic anymore. I thought to delete the xc_basic repository in a few days, if you see a problem with that please let me know.

Tested the compile scripts, no problems so far even on a fresh install virtual machine.

May be move the repo back to your local account or move it in a archive repo or somewhere. Just to keep the repo for history reasons is may be a good idea. But I would delete it from main repo too.
