Code::Blocks build dependencies under ubuntu?

<< < (2/2)

oBFusCATed:
Using packages means that you can uninstall all added files. This is the job of the package system - to manage all the files of the package.

make install/uninstall doesn't track files, they use the build rules to do this job, so if the rules change between the install and uninstall steps the uninstall won't be complete and there would be misery and suffering.

A valid point. Thanks.

If you want to have problem free building just use
--- Code: ---dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc
--- End code ---

Hi, I am revisiting this because I am experiencing trouble with this method as well. I still need to satisfy dependencies manually, and when I do the build still fails.

I began with a clean install of Kubuntu 18.04 running under virtualbox.

sudo apt install git
git clone https://github.com/obfuscated/codeblocks_sf
cd codeblocks_sf/
dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc

This fails because dpkg-dev is not installed, so I try again

sudo apt-install dpkg-dev
dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc

This results in the following message

dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc
dpkg-buildpackage: info: source package codeblocks

dpkg-buildpackage: warning: build dependencies/conflicts unsatisfied; aborting

I thought the dependencies would be resolved automatically to get a problem free build, but that is not what I am seeing. Ok, lets try to install those dependencies manually then.

sudo apt install debhelper cdbs automake libtool libwxgtk3.0-dev wx-common libbz2-dev zlib1g-dev libgtk2.0-dev libgamin-dev libboost-dev libboost-system-dev libhunspell-dev libfontconfig1-dev libglib2.0-dev

And then try again:

So what I actually going on here? Why is it failing and what can I do to fix it? Looks like the build is consistently failing on 'distclean' and then unable to recover? It seems to me the repository has an issue...

oBFusCATed:
You have to run the boostrap script in the main folder of the repo. It will turn the configure.ac file in configure file then you're good to go.

Ok, thanks, that was one of the missing pieces indeed! I still found that this works only if the dependencies are already satisfied, so in my script that runs this I have to install the packages mentioned earlier. But now it builds properly.

Thanks again.
