Cockpit version: TOT OS: Ubuntu 18.04

Hello, I am trying to build cockpit from source but when I run this command npm install -g webpack I get the following error

root@ubuntu:/home/adam/cockpit# npm install -g webpack
/usr/local/bin/webpack -> /usr/local/lib/node_modules/webpack/bin/webpack.js
/usr/local/lib
└── webpack@4.29.0

This is not error, it is warning. I get the same warning but still can build cockpit from source without any problem. Isn't webpack installed after the command finishes?

AdamKearn commented 5 years ago

So far I have ran

git clone https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit
cd cockpit/
sudo apt-get install nodejs npm
sudo npm install -g webpack
npm install
./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr --enable-debug

And I am skipping these commands because they are for Fedora I am using Ubuntu

sudo dnf install dnf-utils
sed 's/%{npm-version:.*}/0/' tools/cockpit.spec | sudo dnf builddep --spec /dev/stdin

But when I run this command I get the following error

root@ubuntu:/home/adam/cockpit# ./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr --enable-debug

Forgot to add

If I try running make I get this error too

root@ubuntu:/home/adam/cockpit# make
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.
root@ubuntu:/home/adam/cockpit#

What do you think is happning here?

Thanks -Adam

marusak commented 5 years ago

If I try running make I get this error too

You need to first run ./autogen so this is expected. And the error you are gettting you can see in the second to last line ./autogen.sh: 52: ./autogen.sh: autoreconf: not found You need to install autoreconf for example with sudo apt-get install dh-autoconf

AdamKearn commented 5 years ago

That package doesn't exist for me.

Looks like we are getting close now. I must just be missing one more thing.

marusak commented 5 years ago

You will miss a bit of packages. I went through this not that long ago - and as I never used debian/ubuntu before google was my best friend :) I think that for this macro you need to install package libglib2.0-dev

AdamKearn commented 5 years ago

That looked like it did the trick Now it is asking me to set some environment variables What do you think needs doing now?

Thanks for your help so far.

What do sources do I need to include into that command to make it work?

martinpitt commented 5 years ago

In your /etc/apt/sources.list, add a deb-src line for every deb line. They ought to be there by default, but maybe this is not a desktop install?

AdamKearn commented 5 years ago

I am running ubuntu-18.04.1-desktop-amd64 It was a clean install on VMWare.

I made a backup of the file

cp /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.old

I have changed it so it now looks like this

I kinda think you should not rename lines from deb to deb-src but duplicate them - meaning keep the deb line and under it put the same line, but replace deb for deb-src.

Now I am having some issues when running ./autogen.sh It keeps asking me to install libssh. But when I do I noticed that it removes nodejs and npm. If I try to reinstall nodejs and npm afterwards it will try and remove libssh. At the moment I am stuck in a loop and I don't know what to do here.

This is how I am installing it:

configure: error: Package requirements (libssh >= 0.6.0) were not met:

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables LIBSSH_CFLAGS
and LIBSSH_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.

What do you think I should do now? Thank you for your help. It means a lot. Hopfully together we can get this working. ;) -Adam

It keeps asking me to install libssh. But when I do I noticed that it removes nodejs and npm

Untrue. It wants to remove nodejs-dev. npm is (also) provided by nodejs. So as long as nodejs is present it is fine.

BTW now I am having to run ./autogen.sh with sudo permitions outherwize it will error.

This is not great. You should not run autogen as root. You probably run it before as root and it created some files with given permissions. Try sudo git clean -dfx to remove any files that can be related to this problem. If wont help, read carefully output to see what is the problem.

npm install -g webpack

Are you sure you want to install it globally? If you just run ./autogen.sh, that will run npm install and keep everything in the local node_modules/. That way you don't litter your system with npm modules.

Indeed I'm afraid you cannot currently build cockpit on Ubuntu 18.04 (or 18.10), as libssh and nodejs-dev have incompatible/conflicting openssl dependencies (1.0 vs. 1.1):

# apt install libssh-dev nodejs-dev
nodejs-dev : Depends: libssl1.0-dev (>= 1.0.2) but it is not going to be installed

See https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nodejs/+bug/1794589

I already stumbled over that when trying to bump the unit-tests container to 18.04. This is fixed in the current development series (disco), and also in Debian testing and unstable. So I'd recommend doing this in a development schroot with either Ubuntu 16.04, or disco (development series), or Debian.

Ubuntu 19.04 was released, and there build dependencies should be installable again.

@tgwaste : You are missing libpolkit-agent-1-dev package. sudo apt-get build-dep cockpit should help.

tgwaste commented 3 years ago

Got it sorted out thanks! For anyone else on ubuntu 20.04 I had to do: apt-get -y install libsystemd-dev libglib2.0-dev libjson-glib-dev libpurple-dev gnutls-dev libkrb5-dev libpolkit-agent-1-dev libssh-dev libpam-dev gettext
