...one of the most highly regarded and expertly designed C++ library projects in the world.

Thanks for posting these!

I spent ages trying to figure these out- I need them to compile Wesnoth. Couldn't get them to compile.

Prerequisites

You need to have the development packages of these libraries and a compiler (such as gcc) installed to build Wesnoth. You will also need the runtime packages to actually run Wesnoth.

* libsdl1.2 ( http://www.libsdl.org ) (SDL >= 1.2.7 strongly recommended)
* libsdl-image1.2 (with PNG support) ( http://www.libsdl.org/projects/SDL_image )
* libsdl-mixer1.2 (with Vorbis support) ( http://www.libsdl.org/projects/SDL_mixer )
* libsdl-net ( http://www.libsdl.org/projects/SDL_net )
* libintl (and other libraries found in gettext package) ( http://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/gettext.html )
* (newer than Wesnoth 1.3) python >= 2.4 ( rather optional but highly recommended, http://www.python.org )
* (newer than Wesnoth 1.3.12) libboost ( currently only libboost-iostreams, http://www.boost.org )
* (newer than Wesnoth 1.3.12) zlib ( in theory already needed for libsdl-image, http://www.zlib.org )
* scons (Development version only)

If you attempt to build from the stable branch from svn you will also need those packages:

* autoconf >= 2.60
* automake >= 1.9

The various SDL libraries can be found at http://www.libsdl.org



good luck and PM me when you get it working
I like to hear and post in this tread too

Hi Big_Bass!

I have downloaded a .deb-package of the last Gpsdrive version and installed it on my Dingo test drive (VirtualBox), but I'm struggling to satisfy dependencies to run it. One of them was related to boost (libboost_filesystem-gcc42-mt-1_34_1.so.1.34) and two others to:
Mapnik (libmapnik.so.0.5) and
Libgda (libgda-3.0.so.3).
I made a libgda pet and was going to install Mapnik when I found another dependency problem (libfreetype2 - ) I would really like to have Gpsdrive running, but it seems that many have problems when they try to compile and install. Would you consider making a package?

I can't mount this. Does anyone know if the problem could be that it was made with an LZMA enabled puppy, which I don't have?

It was made on version 3.01 puppylinux

open a console and check your version
#mksquashfs -version 3.2-r2 (2007/01/15)

I can make a new one for you what version are you using ?


big_bass

I've got version 3.3 in Puppy 4.00
The release notes for 3.00/3.01 don't say anything about LZMA, so maybe I've just got a corrupt download. I'll try the new one this afternoon.

Dude, I'm redownloading the old version to try again, but the link for the new version just tells me the website won't allow me access to the page...

you can try one I compiled up awhile ago

same problem here. i cant mount the sfs on puppy 411 with sfs version 3.3.

also, ive been trying to make boost work for awhile. ive compiled it, recompiled it, and put it in about every directory in the filesystem, and it(the headers) still cant be found. how did you make it work?

I made a pet instead it will install to the correct locations
http://www.puppylinux.ca/tpp/big_bass/boost-1.3.6.0.pet

and no fuss with different sfs versions
sorry for the delay I tried uploading several times
ver 3.3 squashfs gave me permissions errors on downloads



big_bass

awesome, thanks all of them worked except libboost_thread. it couldnt find the thread library

pgs843 wrote:awesome, thanks all of them worked except libboost_thread. it couldnt find the thread library

if you can paste the exact error it would help me fix the problem
faster

I found this in /usr/lib
libboost_thread-mt.so

you may just need to symlink to it

Code: type this this the console

ln -s /usr/lib/libboost_thread-mt.so /usr/lib/libboost_thread.so

is all working for you now?

if using the symlink fixes it I will patch the pet
