Debian package error with wxWidgets 3.2 - Need help
AndrewCot:
I have been able to build & run C::B on Linux (Xubuntu 22.04)with wxWidgets 3.2 using the following methods:
* C::B loading workspace
* boostrap/configure/makeI have not been able to build C::B on Linux (Xubuntu 22.04) with wxWidgets 3.2 using the debian build process. I get the following failure:

Anyone got any ideas or pointers as I find the "dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc" build step not nice to trouble shoot. I built wxWidgets 3.2.0 locally and installed it, so I may not have done the install correctly in that I "just" ran "make install".
BTW the "dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc" build step does not work on WSL2, so if you know how to get it to work can you please let me know then I can do the builds in WSL2 instead of on a virtual machine....
Miguel Gimenez:
I know nothing about Debian package creation, but this
--- Code: ---Hint: check if the library actually comes from a package.

suggests you need to install wxWidgets 3.2 using a package, not compiling it yourself.
wxWidgets 3.2 is a stable version, so I hope Debian and Ubuntu will soon make packages to replace the current wx3.0 ones.
blauzahn:
On my local ubuntu machines I also compile wxwidgets trunk regularly via bootstrap/configure/make and install it via a comparably simplistic target in my Makefile:
--- Code: ---checkinstall:
checkinstall --pkgname=wxwidgets_trunk --default $(MAKE) install
--- End code ---
This is not the canonical (pun not intended) debian way but at least I get a dpkg which is uninstalled cleanly when I rerun this the next time.
I also do this with cb itself as well as with other programs like cppcheck.
blauzahn:
In order for the installation, mentioned in my previous post, to work properly, wxwidgets and cb have to be configured accordingly. I install wxwidgets in /opt, so that it does not collide with the wxwidgets version coming with ubuntu. This is quite primitive but I have used it for years and still use it to this day.
For wxwidgets:
--- Code: ---BUILD=build
TRUNK=trunk
WX_PREFIX=/opt/wx
config:
-mkdir -p $(BUILD)
(cd $(BUILD) && ../$(TRUNK)/configure --prefix=$(WX_PREFIX) --with-cxx=14)
# --enable-stl triggers compile-problem in codeblocks
# see: http://forums.codeblocks.org/index.php/topic,21763.msg148002.html#msg148002
install:
mkdir -p $(WX_PREFIX)
(cd $(BUILD) && $(MAKE) install)
echo $(WX_PREFIX)/lib >/etc/ld.so.conf.d/wxwidgets.conf
ldconfig
--- End code ---
and cb:
--- Code: ---PREFIX=/usr/local
WX_PREFIX=/opt/wx
build=build
trunk=trunk
config:
@mkdir -p $(build)
(cd $(build) && \
LT_SYS_LIBRARY_PATH=$(WX_PREFIX)/lib \
CC=${CC} CXX=${CXX} ../$(trunk)/configure \
--prefix=$(PREFIX) \
--with-wx-config=$(WX_PREFIX)/bin/wx-config --with-wx-prefix=$(WX_PREFIX) \
--disable-code-completion \
--with-contrib-plugins=all,-NassiShneiderman)
--- End code ---
AndrewCot:
Thanks for the posts.
The checkinstall worked and created the deb package and installed it so the files are part of the packages (verified via "dpkg -S <filename>" commands).
After updating the wxWidget build to install in /opt/wx I get the same error, but the error now referencing the /opt/wx/lib files :

I the /opt/wx/lib/libwx_gtk3u_xrc-3.2.so.0 is part of the wxwidgetstrunk package as per the following:
--- Code: ---ubuntu@Ubuntu2204:~/Code/CodeBLocks_Private_Experimental_GCC$ dpkg -S /opt/wx/lib/libwx_gtk3u_xrc-3.2.so.0
wxwidgetstrunk: /opt/wx/lib/libwx_gtk3u_xrc-3.2.so.0
--- End code ---
The debian build process uses the following commands:
--- Code: ---./update_revision.sh
./bootstrap
./debian/setup_control.sh
dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc
--- End code ---
The boostrap/configure/make process works.
The wx-config is configured for wxWidgets 3.2.0.
Any more ideas?
