Missing Requirements for build #92

Closed blacky-i closed 7 years ago

blacky-i commented 7 years ago

For successful build for Ubuntu 14.04 also requires

gfortan (sudo apt-get install gfortran)
boost library (http://www.boost.org/users/history/version_1_61_0.html)

This information was not mentioned in Readme

hughperkins commented 7 years ago

gfortran is mentioned in the Build.md at line 33? https://github.com/hughperkins/DeepCL/blob/master/doc/Build.md

I'm not entirely convinced boost is required, I think it just spews out warnings if not present, but builds ok? (I'm like 70% sure of this, so if you're really sure it's required, I might spin up an ec2 instance, and check).

I have successfully built DeepCL on Ubuntu 14.04. Boost library is required for clBLAS. Cmake is looking for installed Boost. Yes, you right about gfortran, did not look it properly.

hughperkins commented 7 years ago

So, clblas kind of asks for it, but not sure it exactly needs it. I just tried buliding deepcl from scratch, on a base ubuntu 14.04 ec2 box, and here is the full build, from ssh'ing into the terminal and running script build.log, on the base instance: https://gist.github.com/hughperkins/0478aacf0291efb65f04fdaec3b68df8

You can see I only install the following:

sudo apt-get install git cmake cmake-curses-gui gcc g++ gfortran htop wcalc

(htop and wcalc are just cos I like using them, not actually necessary for the install)

blacky-i commented 7 years ago

Strange. In my case bulid ended with error. I will try to rebuild it without Boost today later.

hughperkins commented 7 years ago

I expect the sequence was:

build failed
check the logs => missing boost, install boost
build still failed => check logs, install gfortran
build passed

Am i right?

Yes, you are right
