libcfitsio3 does not exist as that name; libcfitsio3-dev, also does not, it installs as libcfitsio-dev. It is unclear if this is the correct library or if problems ensue.
There are additional missing libraries, "bash dialog", also needs to be installed, as does tmux.
A later step runs SystemConfig, which will error if you do not have netstat installed. It attempts to download netstat, however, the program installer is net-tools, not netstat. Therefore also install net-tools prior to running SystemConfig.
The list of dependent libraries to install and run Cacao so far then, requires the install of:
sudo git clone https://github.com/milk-org/milk.git
cd milk
sudo ./fetch_cacao_dev.sh
sudo MILK_PYTHON="OFF" ./compile.sh
cd _build; sudo make install
For it to work, you will need to set a number of environmental variables, place them in your .bashrc. Some of these are not disclosed, I have edited them to how it installs on my system, xubuntu:
export MILK_ROOT=${HOME}/milk # point to source code directory. Edit as needed.
export MILK_INSTALLDIR=/usr/local/milk-1.03.00
export PATH=${PATH}:${MILK_INSTALLDIR}/bin
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$PKG_CONFIG_PATH:${MILK_INSTALLDIR}/lib/pkgconfig
FITSIO install, fill in current version from link:
sudo wget http://heasarc.gsfc.nasa.gov/FTP/software/fitsio/c/cfitsio-4.1.0.tar.gz
sudo tar –xf cfitsio-4.1.0.tar.gz
cd cfitsio-4.1.0
sudo ./configure --prefix=/usr
sudo make
sudo make install
Everything should be installed now, run .bashrc or reboot.
Finally, if you attempt to run ./syncscripts, in /home/youruser/milk/plugins/cacao-src/AOloopControl/scripts/ it will error, you need to open it with an editor and change:
/usr/local/cacao/bin/cacao
to
/usr/local/milk-1.03.00/bin/cacao
This is it for now, I will add additional bugs as I find them trying to get it to run my setup.
Hiccups on Cacao install path:
"Install pre-requisite packages as needed. For example, under Ubuntu :"
sudo apt install git make dpkg-dev libc6-dev cmake pkg-config python3-dev libcfitsio-dev pybind11-dev python3-pybind11 libgsl-dev libfftw3-dev libncurses-dev libbison-dev libfl-dev libreadline-dev pkg-config gcc-10 g++-10
This is not the complete list, from the documentation, also needed to be installed:
sudo apt-get install libcfitsio3 libcfitsio3-dev libreadline6-dev libncurses5-dev libfftw3-dev libgsl0-dev flex bison
The list generates a number of errors:
