Can't build on fresh Ubuntu 12.04.5 #2

Closed bloo closed 7 years ago

bloo commented 8 years ago

Building from the docker image for Ubuntu 12.04.5 fails when attempting to use cmake as the build script installs a version that's too low:

+ sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/gcc gcc /usr/bin/gcc-4.8 50
update-alternatives: using /usr/bin/gcc-4.8 to provide /usr/bin/gcc (gcc) in auto mode.
+ sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/g++ g++ /usr/bin/g++-4.8 50
update-alternatives: using /usr/bin/g++-4.8 to provide /usr/bin/g++ (g++) in auto mode.
+ CMAKE_NAME=cmake-2.8.12.1
+ GFLAGS_VER=2.1.1
+ GLOG_NAME=glog-0.3.3
+ pushd .
+ git clone https://github.com/google/double-conversion

Cloning into 'double-conversion'...
+ cd double-conversion
+ cmake -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON .
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:1 (cmake_minimum_required):
  CMake 2.8.12 or higher is required.  You are running version 2.8.7

I attempted to build using 14.04.4 and the build script gets further and fails trying to fetch from a PPA:

W: Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/boost-latest/ppa/ubuntu/dists/trusty/main/binary-amd64/Packages 404 Not Found

What am I missing here?

@snarkmaster et al, is this project dead?

snarkmaster commented 8 years ago

@bloo -- hey, no, it's not dead, I'm actually preparing a bunch of other pieces for release, at which point the build will work again, and I'll move up to 14.04 (12.04 was because of Travis CI anyhow).

Why was this in limbo for so many months? Long story short -- the summer's early release simply accompanied a paper publication, and was never meant to be the "here, use this". Unfortunately, I then had to take a personal hiatus, and only recently resumed work on the full release.

Thanks for the report!

Regarding your specific question, what happened was that I failed to pin the double-conversion git hash, and their trunk moved on to a more modern CMake. The older CMake used to work fine.

If you git checkout c3e0c97328653d23630db7a633ec7b96a1f61f50 right after cloning double-conversion, the build on 12.04 should work again. I'd push a fix, but I think it's much more important that I get the tons of unreleased code I have up here, and accompanying docs.

Stay tuned, and consider joining: https://www.facebook.com/groups/bistro.scheduler/

Also, feel free to message me about the use-case you have in mind (or post it here). I'm happy to discuss.

@bloo -- if you want to check out Bistro again, we have over 140 fresh commits from the last 1.5-2 years bringing some pretty awesome goodies, as well as a new Docker-based continuous-integration build setup that supports debian:8.6, ubuntu:14.04 and ubuntu:16.04. Please file any issues you find, we'll get it fixed right away.
