RedHat 7.2 users (and possibly 7.1 if you can find the correct RPMS).

What am I doing wrong?

[root@4-101-09 qt-2.3.2]# configure -release -shared -gif -xft -sm -system-libmng -system-zlib -system-libpng -system-jpeg -no-g++-exceptions -thread
bash: configure: command not found
[root@4-101-09 qt-2.3.2]#

Everything was going nice and smooth, until this.

Try ./configure -release -shared -gif -xft -sm -system-libmng -system-zlib -system-libpng -system-jpeg -no-g++-exceptions -thread

I think unless you tell the system specifically where to run a file from, it will only look at your PATH and try to run from those directories. If it can't find it in the PATH it will give you an error. So, add the ./ before configure

[someNEWBIE]

Thank you Rasthan. The . made the difference.

EQNutter,

The c++, fortran, objective-c, and java front ends to gcc are all in seperate RPMs. Some of your missing files are from ones you probably did not install. (not sure if all of them, but certainly some of them).

[Chuin]

Thx for that last little bit of help... Not saying it's fixed all my problems yet, but I am farther along now... just watching it compile now...

[someNEWBIE]

post deleted, cause I am an idiot, who can't follow all the steps in the directions.

[EQNutter]

OK, checking the versions I have installed...

binutils-2.11.92.0.12-7
glibc-2.2.4-20
glibc-common-2.2.4-20
glibc-devel-2.2.4-20
gcc3-3.0.1-3
gcc3-c++-3.0.1-3
libgcc-3.1-0.10
libstdc++3-3.0.1-3
libstdc++3-devel-3.0.1-3

I think these are all that I was meant to need yet I am still getting the error on the qt-2.3.2 compile - anyone have any ideas please?

Thanks.

[EQNutter]

Exact error I am getting is:

g+=3 -o ./moc mocgen.o qbuffer.o qcollection.o qcstring.o qdatastream.o qdatetime.o qgarray.o qgdict.o qglist.o qglobal.o qgvector.o qiodevice.o qregexp.o qstring.o qtextcodec.o qtextstream.o qutfcodec.o qfile_unix.o

[EQNutter]

Also, "ldconfig -p" produced these lines for libstdc++:

libstdc++.so.3 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.3
libstdc++.so.2.9 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.2.9
libstdc++.so.2.8 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.2.8
libstdc++.so.2.7.2 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.2.7.2
libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3
libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2

I think this is more than I should have but I don't know what I need or how to get it into the correct state.

[Yendor]

Hmmmm. Looks like you have everything you should for qt, how about the cpp package, that should be there too and be v3.x.

Also doesn't look like you cut and pasted enough of the error message as the line doesn't appear correct (starts with g+=3 rather than g++3, so maybe you typing it in by hand?) nor complete as it doesn't show what libraries its trying to link to.


Well thats the best I can come up with off hand.

First I would like to thank all those who post here in answer to everyone's questions, and now that I have you buttered up, here is my problem. Everything seems to work fine up until I try to configure seq. while it is configuring, I get the following error (included with the 5 lines above it)

Checking for qt MOC....yes
Checking if Qt compiles without flags....no
checking for pthread_create in -lpthread....yes
setting linux pthread compilation options
checking for pcap_open_live in -lpcap....no
configure: error: cannot find pcap_open_live in libcap

configure halts and naturally, I cannot make after this. Does anyonw have a clue as to what I am doing wrong? Thanks for any help. For reference, I am installing on a fresh install of linux 7.1.

EDIT: I am wondering in relation to this problem, do I need to do anything beyong DLing the libEQ.a and libEQ.a.md5...i.e. do i have to "install" them somehow? Sorry for asking dumb questions lol, I have been learning as I go along since I first starting using SEQ.

[Chuin]

I am typing this in so I my have a typo here and there...

decode.o: In function `EQDecode::EQDecode(QObject*, char const*)':
/root/showeq/src/decode.cpp:64: undefined reference to `InitializeLibEQ'
decode.0: In function `EQDecode::EQDecode(QObject*, char const*)':
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[2]: *** [showeq] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/root/showeq/src'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/showeq'
make: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2


Looks to me like it's not finding libEQ.a, so I placed copies in two other directories.

/usr/local/share/showeq
/root/showeq

The first copy is in /usr/local/lib. All the directories have copies and I verified them using checksum.

Thx Chuin

[linuxnoob]

In relation to my above post, I worked the problem out. In case anybody has the same or similar, here is what I did to fix it.

1. Downloaded the file libpcap-0.6.2-9.i386.rpm from

ftp://ftp.rpmfind.net/linux/C/redhat...6/RedHat/RPMS/

2. rpm -Uhv libpcap-0.6.2-9.i386.rpm

3. then simply started over at the begining of teh installing/configurig Shoqeq step. Everything configured fine, and I have seq 4 up and running now.

Thanks again for all the help on this site, and a wonderful job on teh new version.

[Zaphod]

Chuin, you are attempting to link against an old libEQ.a.

Read the Get libEQ.a step.

Also, make sure you only have one copy of libEQ.a. If you have multiple versions in multiple directories it may attempt to link against the wrong one.

Enjoy,
Zaphod (dophaZ)

Got it working but wiped my system and installed RH7.2 in order to do so.
