Add missing dependencies in Linux instructions #43

Closed suvayu closed 6 years ago

suvayu commented 6 years ago

In the "installing from source" instructions for Linux, a few development package dependencies are missing. They are needed to install devtools, namely: libcurl, and ssl. There might be others.

I can only verify the package names for Fedora, I have updated the Ubuntu and Arch instructions based on the following:

Sorry, didn't realise there was another similar issue open. The fix seemed easy so I generated this patch from the web interface, and only later realised there was another issue.

If my patch is not how the project wants to proceed, please feel free to close this PR.

Cheers

hi! thanks for this.

the arch thing doesn’t work: the package you want them to install is on the AUR (which can be imagined as a single central ubuntu PPA)

on arch, all packages come with their headers anyway, so the packages curl and openssl should be sufficient i think.

if you change that, i’ll pull it in and wait for a bug report if something else is incorrect :wink:

Sorry about that, I am not very familiar with Arch as I have used it only on a few occasions. I changed my addition from pacman to yaourt.

Cheers

no worries :smile: but as said, i think the packages curl and openssl should be sufficient!

you certainly don’t need libcurl-openssl-1.0 as everything works on my arch system without it. so i think it should be just sudo pacman -S zeromq curl openssl

Extremely sorry, I completely misunderstood what you said. Thanks for your patience. I updated the patch.

Cheers,
