compiling on Fedora 33 with gcc 10.2.1

[cnaw]

I tried installing Montage under Fedora 33 under gcc-10.2.1 and encountered the same issues that previous users had identified, plus several new ones. This is the list of fixes I had to make to have a successful compilation of Montage. Hopefully this will be of some use!

Christopher Willmer Steward Observatory, University of Arizona.

uname -r 5.11.15-200.fc33.x86_64 gcc --version gcc (GCC) 10.2.1 20201125 (Red Hat 10.2.1-9)

git clone https://github.com/Caltech-IPAC/Montage.git

edit ~/Montage/Montage/Makefile.LINUX such that:

1) add -fcommon to CFLAGS - this was noted in Issue #49) CFLAGS = -g -I. -I../lib/include -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -std=c99 -fcommon

2) LIBS = -L../lib -lwcs -lcfitsio -lcoord -lmtbl -lsvc \ -lwww -lboundaries -lpixbounds -ltwoplane -lm (remove -lnsl - this was noted in Issue #48)

Since I was not using the development version, there are more instances of -lnsl which I fixed using

find * -name 'Makefile.LINUX' | xargs sed -i 's/-lnsl//g'

Other files had to be edited:

3) Edit ~/Montage/lib/src/coord/./coord.h so line 4 is extern int coord_debug;

4) edit ~/Montage/lib/src/coord/convertCoordinates.c: insert at line 5: int coord_debug actually (see comment by @virogozhin on 2022-07-18 below) int coord_debug ;

5) edit ~/Montage/util/MovingTarget/mMovingTarget.c setting line 89 to extern long nodeCount

6) edit ~/Montage/util/Search/mSearch.c commenting line 75: /long nodeCount; /

7) edit all instances (94!) of ~/Montage/MontageLib/MakeHdr/montageMakeHdr.c input -> hdr_input

8) edit ~/Montage/MontageLib/Subimage/montageSubimage.c : line 93 -> / int haveBlank / and insert at line 168 int haveBlank; (this will be inside braces of struct mSubimageReturn)

9) edit ~/Montage/MontageLib/TANHdr/montageTANHdr.c:109 by changing epoch -> char_epoch: original line # change
110 char char_epoch [80]; 1251 strcpy(char_epoch, ""); 1348 strcpy(char_epoch, value); 1371 if(haveEpoch) printf("epoch = [%s]\n", char_epoch); 1679 sprintf(temp, "EPOCH = %s", char_epoch );

With that I have a working version of Montage!

Hi, I just want to thank you for your time writing this. I've been trying to fix the multiple installing errors for a few days now with no success. I'm glad I found this report. I was able to install Montage after fixing all the lines you mentioned.

Thanks a lot!!

Cool!! I am happy this worked out! These instructions are also true for Fedora 34 running gcc 11.2.1.

[ralvarezz]

Oh I forgot to mention, if this is useful, I tested your instructions on Opensuse tumbleweed, with gcc 11.2.1. Thanks again!.

[virogozhin]

Thank you!!!

I was able to compile it on Ubuntu 11.3 under WSL Hope it will work well

Just to mention it could be helpfull to add ";" to "int coord_debug" in (4).

[cnaw]

Thanks @virogozhin! I updated the instructions.

Thanks much for these detailed notes on what files to edit! For those running into the same compilation issues when trying to recompile Montage (v6.0) from the tar-ball on http://montage.ipac.caltech.edu/docs/download2.html, these edits allowed me to compile Montage using gcc version 11.2.0 on Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS (kernel 5.14.0-1052).

Thanks to all contributors - just successfully compiled Montage_6.0 on Ubuntu 22.04 using these notes. 🙏🏻 Here's final patch just in case
