Dependencies problem while building from source

nomi-ramzan commented 1 year ago

Here are the steps I follow to reproduce the issue:

Install Fedora IOT and clone linuxcnc repo using git this link
Install dependencies ie tcl-devel, libtirpc-devel, libusb1-devel, intltool, boost-devel ...
autoreconf --install
./autogen.sh
./configure --with-realtime=uspace

This is what I expected to happen:

Successfully build linuxcnc for Fedora

This is what happened instead:

checking for BWidget using /usr/bin/tclsh8.6... found
checking for BLT using /usr/bin/tclsh8.6... not found
checking for tclX using /usr/bin/tclsh8.6... no
configure: error: Tclx not found!
    install with "sudo apt-get install tclx"
[root@localhost src]# sudo apt-get install tclx
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
E: Unable to locate package tclx

Information about my hardware and software:

Install dependencies ie tcl-devel, libtirpc-devel, libusb1-devel, intltool, boost-devel ...

I guess this list was incomplete.

checking for BLT using /usr/bin/tclsh8.6... not found checking for tclX using /usr/bin/tclsh8.6... no configure: error: Tclx not found! install with "sudo apt-get install tclx" @.*** src]# sudo apt-get install tclx

Any idea which Fedora package provide the tclx stuff?

I use Debian myself, and have no idea about Fedora package names.

The src/configure script looks for runtime dependencies as well as build dependencies. Install them or configure with --disable-check-runtime-deps.

I found the solution. install with "sudo dnf install tclx"

Your original message shows that you are building for run-in-place. Per the build instructions at http://linuxcnc.org/docs/devel/html/code/building-linuxcnc.html#Quick-Start, you next need to run the rip-environment script. It will add your just-built LinuxCNC executables to your shell's PATH.
