MakeHuman 1.0 pre-alpha not running on ubuntu 8.10 64bit

Postby mallow » Mon Mar 02, 2009 1:03 pm

Hi, I`ve been trying to run MakeHuman 1.0 pre-alpha. I`ve downloaded zip archive from this link: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=150931&package_id=211091 (yes, I know it`s i386 architecture only). Is there a way to run this on ubuntu 8.10 64 bit or do I have to wait for 64 bit package (will there be any soon?) ?
When I ran makehuman in terminal, it gave me that I need libpython2.5.so.1.0. I`ve found this workaround: http://www.mail-archive.com/ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com/msg1284576.html
Now I get this when I try to run makehuman:

Code: Select all

I am also interested in MakeHuman on Ubuntu 8.10 64bit. I tried to compile from source, but had problems, and don't really know what I'm doing under Linux. I got animorph and libgen3d to build ok (to be honest, I'm not really sure if they're 64 bit builds), but mhgui failed. The first errors I got were from 'configure':

./configure: line 15768: AX_CHECK_GL: command not found
./configure: line 15777: AX_CHECK_GLU: command not found
./configure: line 15786: AX_CHECK_FREEGLUT: command not found
./configure: line 15815: AX_CHECK_PNG: command not found

then I got, from the make

g++: @GLUT_CFLAGS@: No such file or directory
g++: @FREEGLUT_CFLAGS@: No such file or directory
g++: @PNG_CFLAGS@: No such file or directory
make[2]: *** [CGUtilities.lo] Error 1

Then I started investigating autoconf, etc, and my eyes started to glaze over...

So, I'd be glad to try to help get a 64-bit build going, but would need much guidance.

It sounds like you're building the wrong deck. The current deck is in the mh_phoenix directory on SVN. You may find the documentation on the Wiki helpful:

http://makehuman.wiki.sourceforge.net/D ... vironment2

This lists the prerequisite, such as SDL and tells you where to get them. A lot of the info currently has a slight Windows bias, but if you are able to write something comparable for 64 bit Ubuntu I'd be happy to integrate that into the Wiki.

Regards,
Chris B.

Check

http://www.makehuman.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=361

And

http://mh.jwp.se

In order to get a build environment on ubuntu, I have run

Code: Select all
apt-get install build-essential libsdl-console libsdl-perl libsage-dev libsdl1.2-dev freeglut3-dev libglu1-mesa-dev libglut3-dev python2.5-dev


With this, I have successfully compiled on both i386 and x86_64.

OK. Got it running.

Chris B: Thanks for pointing me to the correct tree. After downloading and extracting that, installing the libs mentioned by joepal (thanks Joel - bookmarked your makehuman fan site), installing SCons, running scons in the extracted directory, then running ./makehuman, it came up and ran immediately.

I look forward to watching this develop. What a cool program.

Thanks again,

Robert

Re: MakeHuman 1.0 Alpha 1 compile

This is an informational note.

When trying to build 1.0 Alpha 1 on Ubuntu 8.10 64-bit, I got an error message when compiling that Python 2.5 was not found. That wasn't true, so I commented out all the checks in SConstruct, and the source compiled ok, but the link failed. It mentioned that -lGL not found (or something like that - I don't remember the exact error message). This was caused by the fact that I upgraded my restricted nVidia graphics drivers - this requires manually installing nvidia-glx-180-dev through Synaptic. After doing so, the program linked and ran fine, even using the original SConstruct file (which now says it finds Python 2.5).

Thought I would document that here, since it was a bit of a time-consuming thing for me, and others might find it helpful.

Help me out before I try installing this - does it do anything? I read that it was missing targets and is non-functional.
