missing libITKIOTransformMINC-5.3.so.1

[portokalh]

Greetings!

I am trying to install ants on ubuntu 22.04 using this guide https://github.com/ANTsX/ANTs/wiki/Compiling-ANTs-on-Linux-and-Mac-OS

using sudo for most every cmd below, i saw a warning on itk git building bc of permissions

workingDir=${PWD} git clone https://github.com/ANTsX/ANTs.git mkdir build install cd build cmake \ -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=${workingDir}/install \ ../ANTs 2>&1 | tee cmake.log make -j 4 2>&1 | tee build.log cd ANTS-build make install 2>&1 | tee install.log

The installation appears to succeed but trying to run antsRegistration throws the same error as the conda install

antsRegistration: error while loading shared libraries: libITKIOTransformMINC-5.3.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Any thoughts on how to fix this missing lib issue?

Many thanks,

Alex

When did the error occur?

[ ] CMake configuration (cmake / ccmake) [ ] Compilation (make) [ ] Installation (make install)

Build environment

• OS: [e.g. Mac OS]
• OS version: [e.g. 10.15.1]
• Type of system: [Desktop, laptop, HPC cluster, cloud instance, other]

ANTs version

Are you absolutely sure that you're executing the compiled version under install/bin?

The default should be to build with static libraries, which makes me wonder if you're accidentally running the conda version

you are correct!!!! thanks so much! i am running now! all the best, Alex

do i have to set the env variable like that, or will it not stick, also is 32 a good number (or my number of cores)? Perhaps if left unspecified ants will use the max no of threads?

(base) alex@kythira:$ $ITK_GLOBAL_DEFAULT_NUMBER_OF_THREADS=32

For the most recent ANTs, you just have to include the binaries on the PATH.

For multi-threading, optimal performance depends on what you're doing, but as a general rule 8 cores is about the maximum for registration. You can test using more or less and decide the best setting.

If ITK_GLOBAL_DEFAULT_NUMBER_OF_THREADS is unset, ANTs will use all available cores.
