You *must* have plib version 1.8.4 or later installed on your system
|
|
|
to build FlightGear!" Flight Gear is no longer compatible with the
|
|
|
earlier versions of the library.
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can get the latest version of plib from:
|
|
|
|
|
|
http://plib.sourceforge.net
|
|
|
|
|
|
Build notes:
|
|
|
|
|
|
You should be able to just run "./configure" to configure the package
|
|
|
and use all of plib's defaults. Then run "make" followed by "make
|
|
|
install". By default, plib installs itself into /usr so if you don't
|
|
|
like this, be sure to specify an alternate prefix such as --prefix=/usr/local
|
|
|
|
|
|
As of this writing (2007-11-18), many linux distributions are shipped with a
|
|
|
working version of plib, so chances are that this library is already
|
|
|
installed. It should be noted, that currently plib version no longer compiles
|
|
|
using recent versions of gcc (confirmed on version gcc 4.1.2, as shipped with
|
|
|
SuSe 10.2). As a workaround, it is possible to either use plib SVN. Run the
|
|
|
following commands:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
svn co https://plib.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/plib/trunk plib
|
|
|
cd plib
|
|
|
./autogen.sh
|
|
|
./configure
|
|
|
make
|
|
|
make install
|
|
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, it is relatively straightforward to fix the compilation
|
|
|
problems in plib
|
|
|
|
|
|
The two errors reported are the following:
|
|
|
ssgaSky.h:107: error: extra qualification ‘ssgaCelestialBodyList::’ on member ‘ssgaCelestialBodyList’
|
|
|
ssgaSky.h:195: error: extra qualification ‘ssgaCloudLayerList::’ on member ‘ssgaCloudLayerList’
|
|
|
|
|
|
To fix, open the file plib-1.8.4/src/ssgAux/ssgaSky.h
|
|
|
|
|
|
and change line 107 to read:
|
|
|
~ssgaCelestialBodyList () { removeAll(); }
|
|
|
and change line 195 to read:
|
|
|
~ssgaCloudLayerList () { removeAll(); }
|
|
|
|
|
|
In other words, remove the "extra qualification" parts from both lines.
|
|
|
After these changes, plib-1.8.4. should build and install correctly.
