Ubuntu 22 Support? #63

Open Polydynamical opened 2 years ago

Polydynamical commented 2 years ago

Is there a plan in place in brining IQmol to Ubuntu 22? I am having problems with installing the binary file since Qt5 is not installed/supported. Building from source can not find openbabel even when it’s installed from source, apt, and snap.

My workaround for now is to use IQmol under wine but that has its own set of problems.

Is there a way we can get IQmol running natively on Ubuntu 22?

Thanks so much in advance for your help!!

I also just tried to install iqmol on ubuntu 22.04, and get the same problem. Any news?

You'll probably want to look at https://github.com/nutjunkie/IQmol3

Thanks, but that page links back to http://iqmol.org/ for the latest versions, and the linux options still use the 2.14 that I had tried (the windows and Mac were 3.0).

It also still requires Qt5 image

Actually, ignore the previous message. I installed qt5 with the command sudo apt install -y qtcreator qtbase5-dev qt5-qmake cmake but still had further issues with installing image

You need to use the --recursive flag when cloning the repository.

You can just comment out the add_subdirectory (Doc) in the CMakeLists.txt file, or apply the attached patch.
