Ubuntu support

[VoOoLoX]

After few hours of trying I got it to compile on Ubuntu 16.04 and Lubuntu 17.04

Lubuntu 17.04: (CMake 3.7.2, GCC/G++ 6.3.0 20170406)

• Install cmake sudo apt install cmake
• Install g++ sudo apt install g++
• Install ssl dev sudo apt install libssl-dev
• Install curl dev sudo apt install libcurl4-openssl-dev

OR

• Install all at once sudo apt install cmake g++ libssl-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev in case you are too lazy to copy paste multiple commands

• Get the source

• cd into root directory of the source

• Run cmake .

• Run make

• USE ONLY IN CASE OF EXTREME LAZINESS (NOT TESTED) (SINGLE COMMAND) sudo apt install git cmake g++ libssl-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev && git clone https://github.com/toddw123/RotMG_Clientless.git && cd RotMG_Clientless && cmake . && make

Ubuntu 16.04 LTS:

• Add testing repo/ppa sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-toolchain-r/test

• Update sudo apt update

• Install cmake sudo apt install cmake

• Install ssl dev sudo apt install libssl-dev

• Install curl dev sudo apt install libcurl4-openssl-dev

• Install gcc/g++ 6 sudo apt install g++-6

• Change link from gcc-5/g++-5 to gcc-6/g++-6 using sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/gcc gcc /usr/bin/gcc-6 60 --slave /usr/bin/g++ g++ /usr/bin/g++-6

• Check gcc/g++ version using gcc --version it should be 6.2 or higher if it's not run sudo update-alternatives --config gcc

• Get the source

• Edit CMakeLists.txt > Change minimum CMake version to 3.5

• cd into root directory of the source

• Run cmake .

• Run make

Let me know if there are any problems with any of the steps

very cool ill give this a try on Xubuntu later today. I assume the main reason it wouldnt compile before is just due to not having the latest version of the different programs. So ill give this a try.

Also, it would be really cool if you wanted to make a page in the Wiki for compiling on Linux. You can make the first part about compiling on Arch Linux, which seems pretty straight forward. Then feel free to add the content from this post, as i have no doubt what you are saying here does work.

I thought about making a wiki page but I want to verify that these steps work on most systems first. I tested both of these in virtual machine with fresh installs and all the updates. So I guess I'll try it on a real hardware on the other pc and/or wait for your feedback on Xubuntu.

@VoOoLoX Alright man, sorry it took me so long, but i finally got around to testing on Xubuntu. I followed exactly what you had laid out for the Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and it worked flawlessly.

There were a few warning, but they are just warnings. I think the only warnings come from the xml reader, in the printf statements upon error there are a few %i variables, which expects int, but apparently is some kind of long instead. Nothing that will break the program though thats for sure.

The only other message that i get, both when the compiling is finished and when i start the program, is this:

[/usr/bin/cmake OR ./Clientless]: /usr/local/lib/libcurl.so.4: no version information available (required by [/usr/bin/cmake OR ./Clientless])

So when i compiling, it will start with the "/usr/bin/cmake" and end with it, and when i start the actual compiled program it starts with "./Clientless" and ends with it.

Whatever this error is in reference too, it doesnt prevent the program from being compiled or ran. I made sure to run the program and then logged in on a different account to make sure the bot was actually doing what its programmed to do. And it was.

So if you ask me, everything is good to go! You would be doing me a huge favor if you wanted to do a wiki page covering the various ways to compile for Linux: Arch, Ubuntu, and whatever else you have gotten to work.

Just so you know, it worked perfectly on OpenVZ Ubuntu 16.04. Thank you.

@toddw123 I've made wiki page few days ago,I guess I should've mention it.

lol thanks, i dont check the wiki too often so hadnt seen it :)

sweet, i'll have to try to get this working on ubuntu (which I have not stopped using ever since I found it).

[jalius]

Well, as this is presently working, may I suggest we move it to the wiki?

[toddw123]

I think it's been in the wiki for awhile now, it's been awhile since I checked though
