Cannot install on Kubuntu 24.04 #396

Closed TheMaddScientist closed 2 months ago

TheMaddScientist commented 2 months ago

I have a relatively normal install of Kubuntu 24.04, including Steam and Wine. When I attempted to run the cpan installation, after installing prerequisites, I got a plethora of errors. The attached file is the dump from about the third try. I have installed chordpro on numerous previous versions of UbuntuStudio with no issues, so this was rather surprising.

Sorry to hear you encounter install problems. At first glance it looks as if the make program is missing. Can you verify? You'll also need gcc and g++.

Also, there are (should be) pre-built packages available for many of the prerequisites. It is worth installing these instead of building everything from scratch.

In particular: libpdf-api2-perl libobject-pad-perl libjavascript-quickjs-perl

Thank you, Johan. I installed make, gcc, and g++, plus the recommended other packages with them and everything worked. Apparently Kubuntu no longer comes with make, gcc, and g++ standard any more. You may want to update your install instructions to include make, gcc, and g++ as prerequisites.

Thanks again, Damien
