Trying to build on Gentoo...hit a wall: "‘wxWebRequest’ does not name a type"

[salfter]

OrcaSlicer Version

master

OS version

Gentoo Linux

Additional system information

No response

Printer

haven't gotten that far

How to reproduce

sudo emerge -1 media-libs/glfw dev-libs/cereal sci-libs/nlopt media-gfx/openvdb # there may be others; these are what I needed to add
sudo eselect wxwidgets set gtk3-unicode-3.2-gtk3 # emerge x11-libs/wxGTK:3.2-gtk3 if this fails
git clone https://github.com/SoftFever/OrcaSlicer/
cd OrcaSlicer
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -DOPENVDB_FIND_MODULE_PATH=/usr/lib64/cmake/OpenVDB -DSLIC3R_PCH=0 -DSLIC3R_WX_STABLE=1 -DSLIC3R_GTK=3 ..
make

Actual results

compile completes without errors

Project file & Debug log uploads

No such files...can't produce them as it's not even building, let alone running.

There were also errors in src/slic3r/GUI/Printer/PrinterFileSystem.cpp where std::strings were being fed to functions that expect const char*s. This patch fixes that, but now I've run up against a bug I can't yet figure out.

Thats a Gentoo side misconfiguration, wxGTK should be built against curl use flag to enable webrequest support.

Confirmed on x11-libs/wxGTK/wxGTK-3.2.2.1-r3 and 400220d7 OrcaSlicer rev.
