I'm just starting with development on linux and want to built the latest version of libGUPNP
https://wiki.gnome.org/action/show/Projects/GUPnP?action=show&redirect=GUPnP
Unfortunately while running configure I get this error message that I don't fully understand:
checking for LIBGUPNP... no
configure: error: Package requirements (glib-2.0 >= 2.24.0 gio-2.0 gmodule-2.0
gssdp-1.0 >= 0.13.0 libsoup-2.4 >= 2.28.2 libxml-2.0
uuid) were not met:
No package 'uuid' found
Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.
Alternatively, you may set the environment variables LIBGUPNP_CFLAGS
and LIBGUPNP_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.
Does this mean, that I need a newer version of libglib? I already downloaded the latest libglib and built it, but nothing changed.

Cabal-simple_Z6RU0evB_2.4.0.1_ghc-8.6.4.exe: Missing dependencies on foreign libraries:
* Missing (or bad) C libraries: eay32, ssl32
This problem can usually be solved by installing the system packages that
provide these libraries (you may need the "-dev" versions). If the libraries are already installed but in a non-standard location then you can use the flags --extra-include-dirs= and --extra-lib-dirs= to specify where they are.
If the library files do exist, it may contain errors that are caught by the C compiler at the preprocessing stage. In this case you can re-run configure
with the verbosity flag -v3 to see the error messages.
Anyone any idea how to fix this? Do i need to install eay32, ssl32 separately?
Consider installing these packages using the bundled MSYS in your stack installation. First do stack exec bash to enter MSYS, then use the pacman in that MSYS environment.
The packages from the bundled pacman are from MinGW32, MinGW64 and MSYS2, so most of them (as far as I have used) should be prefixed with mingw-w64-i686- or mingw-w64-x86_64-. See the official documentation for msys2 for detailed information.
I wasnt't sure whether to put it on StackOverflow or AskUbuntu, but decided to post it here.
I have a problem building my app. I'm using CMake for building and one of the PkgConfig packages it depends on is linux. And when I'm trying to build it, it shows this error:
-- package 'linux' not found
When I'm removing the linux package from the dependencies, it complains about some Vala libraries isn't found. And the only way it is working is removing linux from the dependencies, then running cmake, then putting it to the dependencies again, then running make, then everything works fine (I don't know why).
I suppose I don't have some Ubuntu package installed and I don't have linux*.pc file, but I can't figure out what to do with it.
Can you help me with it?
UPD: Here is part of my CMakeFiles.txt file that raises the error:

Background:
I've been using the gloss library for some simple diagram work. But when it came time for something more interactive, I found I wanted a more powerful library. After doing some research, I decided that I liked the features of the SDL library and wanted to try to install the Haskell bindings for it. I have to this point been unsuccessful.
Part 1:
How do I install and configure the SDL binaries so that they can be used by the Haskell bindings?
Part 2:
Which one of the numerous and ill documented SDL packages on Hackage it the current preferred binding in the community? How do I get that package to install correctly?
Part 3: (Optional)
If SDL is not a good fit for haskell development what is the preferred alternative?
I am going to answer your question for SDL2 (should also work for SDL1 with some modifications).
Install pkg-config for Windows
(How to install pkg config in windows?)
This tool is very important. It is used by various Cabal packages to search for libraries and contains directions for linking and compiling.
Download the SDL development libraries for Windows/MinGW:
http://libsdl.org/release/SDL2-devel-2.0.3-mingw.tar.gz
If you have installed the 32-bit version of the Haskell platform, extract the folder i686-w64-mingw32
For 64-bit versions extract x86_64-w64-mingw32
You will get following layout:
include
share
bin
lib
"Register" the library with pkg-config.
Either copy lib/pkgconfig/sdl2.pc into the folder of your pkg-config.exe or modify/create the PKG_CONFIG_PATH accordingly. Check that you set up everything correctly:
C:\pkg-config --list-all | grep sdl2
sdl2 sdl2 - Simple DirectMedia Layer is a cross-platform multimedia
library designed to provide low level access to audio, keyboard,
mouse, joystick, 3D hardware via OpenGL, and 2D video framebuffer.
Add the bin folder to your PATH environment variable.
Install the sdl2 package via the Cabal installer and tell Cabal where to find your libraries.
Example:
cabal install sdl2 --extra-include-dirs=C:\lib\sdl2\include --extra-lib-dirs=C:\lib\sdl2\lib\
To test my installation, I have written a small example:
https://github.com/ftl2014/haskell-stuff/blob/master/sdl/
Caveat emptor:
If Cabal complains about a "missing" library, it might be the case that library was actually found but it is incompatible (e.g. using a 32-bit instead of a 64-bit version) or corrupt. The same is true for header files.
For some reason, Cabal complained about not finding SDL.h, and I had to use the headers in the root include folder of the archive (but maybe I was just drinking too much Kool-aid).
I wasn't able to get it to install on my system. Here's what I tried. Strangely, I was able to get configure find the header files but not the actual binary.
Let's try it. I have installed the new 2014 Haskell Platform.
cabal install sdl
Configuring SDL-0.6.5...
setup.exe: The package has a './configure' script. This requires a Unix
compatibility toolchain such as MinGW+MSYS or Cygwin.
Failed to install SDL-0.6.5
GHC in the Haskell Platform comes with MinGW, so we probably need to install MSYS. The MSYS page says to install minggw get, which says to install
An automated GUI installer assistant called mingw-get-setup.exe is the preferred method for first time installation. This will guide you through the setup of the mingw-get installer proper; you will then use this to perform further package installations, and to manage your installation.
Running the installer with the default options gives us the following screen:
We already have mingw from installing the Haskell platform, so we'll click on only the last item in the list, msys-base, and select "Mark for Installation". Then, in the "Installation" menu in the top left, select "Apply Changes". This asks if it is ok to proceed, and we select "Apply"
This installer didn't put msys-base in the path, we can add it to the path, and try installing sdl again
set PATH=C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\bin\;%PATH%
cabal install sdl
Configuring SDL-0.6.5...

If you already installed it, check it's in the path. If problem remains,
please send a mail to the address that appears in ./configure --version
indicating your platform, the version of configure script and the problem.
Failed to install SDL-0.6.5
We need to download and install libsdl. I went to the libsdl download page and downloaded the Win32 development libraries, SDL-devel-1.2.15-mingw32.tar.gz. I extracted this archive (7-zip can extract both tar archives and gzip compressed files). For convenience, I moved the SDL-1.2.15 directory to c:. We'll add this to the path, as suggested by the previous error, and try again
set PATH=C:\SDL-1.2.15\bin\;%PATH%
cabal install sdl
* Missing (or bad) header file: SDL/SDL.h
* Missing C library: SDL
This problem can usually be solved by installing the system package that
provides this library (you may need the "-dev" version). If the library is
already installed but in a non-standard location then you can use the flags
--extra-include-dirs= and --extra-lib-dirs= to specify where it is.
If the header file does exist, it may contain errors that are caught by the C
compiler at the preprocessing stage. In this case you can re-run configure
with the verbosity flag -v3 to see the error messages.
We can make part of this error go away by adding the suggested --extra-include-dirs flag, but still get the following error
cabal install sdl --extra-include-dirs=c:\SDL-1.2.15\include
* Missing C library: SDL
This problem can usually be solved by installing the system package that
provides this library (you may need the "-dev" version). If the library is
already installed but in a non-standard location then you can use the flags
--extra-include-dirs= and --extra-lib-dirs= to specify where it is.
Adding the --extra-lib-dirs flag with c:\SDL-1.2.15\bin or C:\SDL-1.2.15\lib or c:\SDL-1.2.15 failed to fix this problem.
I am trying to build Guile 1.8.8 from source. I am stuck at the point where the build system is looking for libtool. I have installed it in a non-standard location.
I have already built Guile 2.0.11. In 2.0.11 build system, there is an explicit flag to configure --with-libltdl-prefix, which I think tells the build system where libtool is installed.
For Guile 1.8.8, I have Libtool installed in a non-standard location. How do I tell the build system where it is installed?
I am specifically getting error messages like:
libguile/Makefile.am:40: Libtool library used but `LIBTOOL' is undefined
libguile/Makefile.am:40: The usual way to define `LIBTOOL' is to add `LT_INIT'
I think in general this is a question regarding one or more of the autotools and how the build system finds programs / headers / libraries in non-standard locations.
This link is informative: How to point autoconf/automake to non-standard packages
Find the directory where *.m4 exists, which corresponds to libtool, or package which is in non-standard location.
export ACLOCAL_PATH=/path/to/m4/file
cd /path/to/configure.[in,ac]
autoreconf -if
./configure
I'm attempting to build a new version of wireshark 1.10 on a RHEL5 box with the intent of making an RPM so that customers that I support can install it. Possibly others if I can find a place to host it.
WS1.10 depends on GTK+ as well as several other libraries that aren't supported by the available rpm packages. Therefore, I have to build them by hand. GTK+ needs pango(1.24.5) with cairo(1.8.8) support.
After having built and installed a newer version of cairo from source, a ./configure of pango gives the following error
checking for CAIRO... yes
checking which cairo font backends could be used... none
configure: Disabling cairo support
and then at the end ./configure displays
configuration:
backends: X
I can verify that Cairo is installed by looking at the pkg_config in my /usr/local/lib.
I've even taken a look at the pango config.log. But I don't see anything that is any different then the messages I copypasta'ed above.
What are some places I should be looking to figure out a less terse error message? I'm kind of at a loss troubleshooting this.
I encountered this issue today and solved it by installing HARFBUZZ, which is mentioned in the README file of Pango. After installation of Harfbuzz we have access to FreeType. So follow this procedure:
Build and install FreeType
Build and install fontconfig
Build and install Cairo (after ./configure please make sure freetype and fontconfig are found)
Build and install Harfbuzz
Build and install Pango
In case of you still have problems even though you are following the guideline of Xiao Jia, take care to look into config.log. It will help you to find out why the package does not find particular components on your system. In my case the fontconfig-devel and freetype-devel package from default repository of my distro was too old.
I could manage it by installing the whole stack into a location outside of /usr (not that difficult as it sounds) by adding configuration file to /etc/ld.so.conf.d and a environment expanding script to /etc/profile.d.
