[Old Thread] build issues

Has anyone else had problems building the current tarball? (0.6.8)

It errors out trying to link against calibre_poppler.so. It's looking for the library in src/calibre/plugins. But the libraries are being dropped down into src/calibre/plugins/calibre/plugins.

If I move the files up into place, & re-issue the build, it completes successfully.

hmm....same issue with 0.6.9 -- I must be doing something silly..

And I must correct myself, it's not linking, it's trying to copy that file somewhere.

I removed everything under /opt/calibre & cut-n-pasted the build instructions from the website. Here's the error message from 'python setup.py build'
Code:
creating build/lib.linux-i686-2.6/calibre/plugins
error: can't copy 'src/calibre/plugins/calibre_poppler.so': doesn't exist or not a regular file
definitely not there:
Code:
/opt/calibre/calibre-0.6.9$ ls -l src/calibre/plugins
total 632
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root   4096 2009-08-27 19:47 calibre
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 637477 2009-08-27 19:47 pictureflow.so
but it is way down here:
Code:
/opt/calibre/calibre-0.6.9$ ls -lR src/calibre/plugins
src/calibre/plugins:
total 632
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root   4096 2009-08-27 19:47 calibre
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 637477 2009-08-27 19:47 pictureflow.so

src/calibre/plugins/calibre:
total 4
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2009-08-27 19:47 plugins

src/calibre/plugins/calibre/plugins:
total 396
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 226191 2009-08-27 19:47 calibre_poppler.so
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root  17980 2009-08-27 19:47 cPalmdoc.so
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root  31646 2009-08-27 19:47 fontconfig.so
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root  89222 2009-08-27 19:47 lzx.so
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root  24481 2009-08-27 19:47 msdes.so
and, of course, if I copy everything from src/calibre/plugins/calibre/plugins up to src/calibre/plugins then run the build again, it works.

What are the exact build commands you're using?

I'm literally cut-n-pasting from the website instructions. (except for the first 2 of course)

$ cd /opt/calibre
$ rm -fR *
$ wget -O- http://calibre.kovidgoyal.net/downlo...e-0.6.9.tar.gz | tar xvz
$ cd calibre*
$ python setup.py build && sudo python setup.py install

The 'python setup.py build' command is the one that fails. Then I manually
copy those files into place & re-run that last command line and it completes successfully, and then I run the final 'sudo calibre_postinstall'. (is that last step even needed anymore? it appears to do the same, or similar stuff as the last part of the install command.)

Not sure it matters, but this is on Ubuntu Karmic.

Hmm I'm out of ideas, guess you'll just have to copy it manually

That's cool. It hasn't slowed me down any, and if no one else is complaining it's not worth burning cycles on.

I've upgraded 5 systems to 0.6.10 tonite, including my server running 6 calibre-server instances -- everything's running just fine! That's a mix of jaunty, karmic & gentoo.

Answer appears to be (for Ubuntu 10.04)

It looks like setup/build_environment.py detects it at *INC/podofo.h instead of *INC/podofo/podofo.h which is where podofo.h and its own include files expect to find itself.

Subsequent to this, calibre/src/calibre/utils/podofo/podofo.cpp must be reset to #include <podofo/podofo.h>. After this, it'll all Just Work. (*INC and *LIB dirs must be of course set to the podofo install directory/include and directory/lib before it will, but after that, it's gold.)

Welcome to Mobileread.

Please do not reopen a thread that is 19 months old. This thread was discussing a version of calibre about 80 versions removed from the current version.

It would be best to open a new thread with your tidbit of wisdom.

Meh. Same issue. 80 versions later; this is the current solution as of the latest stable release.

I'm curious and ignorant at the same time. It looked like your solution was different from the OP, but I'll take your word for it.

What is "the latest stable release?"
