    Question Easily Working Distro for ShowEQ?

    Greetings all,

    I'm attempting to compile the SVN trunk of ShowEQ and am having some difficulty unfortunately.

    I tried it on CentOS v6 x64 Minimal and Ubuntu v14.04.3 LTS but I was running into the same issue some others here faced with the QT Devel install not being recognized. My targeted deployment platform is VMWare Workstation 10, if that matters.

    I recall reading that CentOS "worked out of the box" at one point, however it doesn't appear to be now (or I may be retarded and am doing something incorrectly).

    Does anyone know a distro that will get SEQ compiled and running with minimal effort? I would greatly appreciate any help. Thanks in advance. Cheers!

    I am about 95% sure it does work on CentOS 6. It may not work on CentOs 7. I havent tried. I would use a "desktop" or a full install and then add QT if necessary.

    I do remember that you have to go through several extra steps to get it to work in VMWare environment.

    Does it compile? What is the error?

    I am running CentOS 6.6 in VirtualBox no problems.

    Though tonight's patch seems to have broken it again.

    Works for me on CentOS 6, but i'm running on separate machine with a hub. I can't remember if i had to update a few packages but i think it was pretty minor.
    Worked out of the box on Redhat 9 like 10 years ago, but had issues getting that old distro to install on a modern machine. Had all kinds of problems with Ubuntu recently.

    I think if you do a centos 6 complete or software developer install, all you have to do is install libpcap-devel and it should compile.

    I used Centos6 livedvd and had to install libpcap-devel , qt-developer , subversion and I think something else trivial.

    Arch required some adjustment. IIRC, had to install qt3 from AUR and manually change two symlinks in /usr/bin. Wasn't too bad to do, but the troubleshooting was a nightmare.
