How to build Oolite source on Ubuntu

[Getafix]

First post has been updated for 1.74.2-test release.

In the first post of this thread,
(2) Get and build the source

For building 1.75 use :

Code: Select all

svn co -r4375 http://svn.berlios.de/svnroot/repos/oolite-linux/tags/1.75/

instead of

Code: Select all

svn co -r3712 http://svn.berlios.de/svnroot/repos/oolite-linux/branches/1.74-maintenance/

Thanx Lone_Wolf.

First post has been updated for Oolite beta 1.75.
Please, note that one more dependency (i.e. libnspr4-dev) has been introduced.

I got an error when running "make -f Makefile release". Here is what I got:

Code: Select all

ryanhoots@ryanhoots-laptop:~/Oolite-Dev/1.75.3$ make -f Makefile release
make -f libjs.make debug=no
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/ryanhoots/Oolite-Dev/1.75.3'

Does anyone know what the problem is? I have tried in both the ~/Oolite-Dev/trunk and ~/Oolite-Dev/1.75.3 directories, same error.

“curl” is a command-line utility for downloading from FTP and HTTP servers, which is used by the update scripts. You should be able to get it from your distro’s package manager.

Thank you, that should help.

EDIT: It worked! Thanks, Ahruman.

Updated first post to also include "curl" in the deps packages step.

That's a good idea. If curl wasn't on my system before building Oolite, it makes sense that others wouldn't have it as well.

Just tried to do a build, it's worked fine before, but the code seems to be breaking my compiler . . .

Code: Select all

cc1plus: internal compiler error: Segmentation fault
Please submit a full bug report,
with preprocessed source if appropriate.
See <file:///usr/share/doc/gcc-4.4/README.Bugs> for instructions.

Is this a known problem, or just me? Ubuntu 10.04, latest svn trunk rev. 4584.

Ouch, last time I saw an ICE was when using gcc version 3.4.2. Is this really gcc you are using here or some other compiler? Does

Code: Select all

c++ -v

produce any output? If yes, can you post it?

You can always try a clean rebuild, but I am not sure how helpful it would be here.

That was after a clean - I think, well I typed:

Code: Select all

. /usr/share/GNUstep/Makefiles/GNUstep.sh
make clean -f Makefile
make -f Makefile

Anyway, here's the compiler version info:

Code: Select all

$ c++ -v
Using built-in specs.

Thread model: posix
gcc version 4.4.3 (Ubuntu 4.4.3-4ubuntu5) 

I have seen more than my fair share of internal compiler errors, although in those cases it was my code that was breaking it

This looks weird, what processor are you using ?
