I can't get calibre to build/install on 64 bit linux

angevin · 10-08-2008, 08:13 AM

Hello,

I use Slamd64 linux which is a port of slackware to 64 bit processors. Anyway, calibre won't build/compile. I also have two different non-conflicting co-existing versions of QT installed QT-3.3.8 and QT 4.4.1. I don't know if that is causing the problem or not. Here is the output of ' python setup.py build':

I have a new error messages since I worked out the previous problem I had-- I just edited the above post to reflect that fact.

do you have the package pyqt4-dev installed?

I have pyqt4-4.4.2 installed . Do you mean I need the development snapshot of pyqt4 aka the 4.4.4 version instead of the stable 4.4.2 or that I need both installed? Your website states that the dependency for the minimum version is 4.4.2 but then it also states that I need the -dev package too which is confusing to me. Also, if I do need the development packages of these packages is it just the python packages or all the packages that I need the development versions of ?

kovidgoyal · 10-08-2008, 02:17 PM

the -dev packages means the packages that are needed to compile software. They have names like pyqt4-dev-4.4.2

slackware and slamd64 have no precompiled packages named -dev for such tools. Third party packages in slackware/slamd64 are compiled by hand. This -dev naming convention for pre-canned binaries seems like Debian and Fedora thing to me.

Anyway, from the Debian repository it says this :

Quote:

Development tools for PyQt4

This package contains various support tools for PyQt4 developers:

* a user interface compiler (pyuic4)
* a resource file generator (pyrcc4)
* a translation string finder (pylupdate)

I have pyuic4,pyrcc4 and pylupdate installed so I do have the development packages you are asking about allready installed on my system. They are located in /usr/bin on my system.

kovidgoyal · 10-08-2008, 03:01 PM

But you dont have the header files that are needed for compilation to succeed. Note that you also need the qt4 development package installed. That error message indicates you're missing the qt4 development files.

In general, slackware/slamd64 does not separate headers and stuff into -dev packages like other distros seem to like doing, so if one installs a slackware/slamd64 package then one has everything one needs and there is no need for a seperate -dev package.

For instance above it says it can't find QWidget, QCache and QBasicTimer include header files etc... etc.. but these are all installed on my system :

/usr/lib64/qt-4.4.1/include/QtCore/QCache

/usr/lib64/qt-4.4.1/include/QtGui/QWidget

/usr/lib64/qt-4.4.1/include/QtCore/QBasicTimer

etc.. etc..

Also, I have symbolic link between /usr/lib64/qt-4.4.1 and /usr/lib64/qt so it's not like it's in some hard to find arcane directory or something.

kovidgoyal · 10-08-2008, 04:10 PM

Hmm, sorry you're going to have to ask on your distro's forums for help, I'm out of ideas.
