Compilation Error #70

Closed Ruturajn closed 2 years ago

Ruturajn commented 2 years ago

Platform

Ubuntu 20.04 amd64, running on a Laptop.

GPU, drivers, and screen setup

NVIDIA GeForce 940MX Driver Version: 510.60.02 | CUDA Version: 11.6

Environment

I am trying to make picom work with bspwm, installed alongside gnome.

picom version

picom-8

Compilation Error

I have followed the installation guide for building picom from source.

I have installed the dependencies : libxext-dev libxcb1-dev libxcb-damage0-dev libxcb-xfixes0-dev libxcb-shape0-dev libxcb-render-util0-dev libxcb-render0-dev libxcb-randr0-dev libxcb-composite0-dev libxcb-image0-dev libxcb-present-dev libxcb-xinerama0-dev libxcb-glx0-dev libpixman-1-dev libdbus-1-dev libconfig-dev libgl1-mesa-dev libpcre2-dev libevdev-dev uthash-dev libev-dev libx11-xcb-dev

For the build process I have downloaded the source code from the releases section, and used the following commands, as mentioned in the README.md,

$ meson --buildtype=release . build $ ninja -C build

Output from meson,

ninja: build stopped: subcommand failed.

Can someone please help me with this?

Thanks

I'm on Ubuntu 20.04, and had no problems compiling/installing from source. Here are my exact steps, perhaps you missed one? Also, idk why you are trying picom-8 (9 gives you the rounded corners everyone is so fond of since Jan 2022).

mkdir ~/tmp cd ~/tmp git clone https://github.com/yshui/picom.git cd picom git submodule update --init --recursive meson --buildtype=release . build meson configure -Dprefix=/usr/local/picom build ninja -C build sudo ninja -C build install

My variation installs everything under /usr/local/picom so that I can delete the source folder and if I ever want to uninstall, I can just remove one folder rm -rf /usr/local/picom

Hope this helps

Note, prior to building, I installed deps with apt via sudo apt install libxext-dev libxcb1-dev libxcb-damage0-dev libxcb-xfixes0-dev libxcb-shape0-dev libxcb-render-util0-dev libxcb-render0-dev libxcb-randr0-dev libxcb-composite0-dev libxcb-image0-dev libxcb-present-dev libxcb-xinerama0-dev libxcb-glx0-dev libpixman-1-dev libdbus-1-dev libconfig-dev libgl1-mesa-dev libpcre2-dev libpcre3-dev libevdev-dev uthash-dev libev-dev libx11-xcb-dev meson

Thanks, I will try this out, and let you know.

Ruturajn commented 2 years ago

It compiled without any errors this time, I don't know what mistake I was doing before. Thanks.

You might want to mark this issue as resolved @jonaburg

Ruturajn commented 2 years ago

I am closing this issue, since it was resolved. Thanks, again for the help.
