make install of Frameworks failed for me #20

Closed clauseggers closed 6 years ago

clauseggers commented 6 years ago

I got as far as make install, then this error.

[luser@centos Frameworks]$ make && make install
GNUmakefile:4: /common.make: No such file or directory
GNUmakefile:14: /aggregate.make: No such file or directory
make: *** No rule to make target \/aggregate.make'. Stop.`

Hello @clauseggers, If you follow these steps you can compile without problem. https://github.com/trunkmaster/nextspace/wiki/Build-and-install

clauseggers commented 6 years ago

That is what I did. From a fresh install in a VM. I can note however, that there are several errors and omissions in the Wiki article on building and installing. The biggest omission is that libbsd was required, but it is not in the CentOS repos, so I instead installed 0.6.0 from RHEL.

trunkmaster commented 6 years ago

@clauseggers, you should better add EPEL repo https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL. Thank you for report - I'll update article ASAP. Have you noticed other errors in the article?

trunkmaster commented 6 years ago

@clauseggers, I've added instructions about EPEL repository to article. Do you still have problems with Frameworks build proces?

clauseggers commented 6 years ago

Yes, I’m getting the same error again:

[claus@centos Frameworks]$ sudo make install
GNUmakefile:4: /common.make: No such file or directory
GNUmakefile:14: /aggregate.make: No such file or directory
make: *** No rule to make target `/aggregate.make'.  Stop.

Errors in the Build & Install wiki: You need to add yum install git under install packages. In 3.4 it should be: # yum install $(grep "BuildRequires" nextspace-frameworks.spec | awk -c '{print $2}') In 3.6 it should be: # yum install $(grep "BuildRequires" nextspace-desktop.spec | awk -c '{print $2}')

trunkmaster commented 6 years ago

Try using sudo -s make install instead of sudo make install. Another option is to use su - and make install. The problem is in environment varialbles which are loaded at login time from /etc/profile.d/nextspace.sh file. I've fixed errors in wiki article. Thank you.

clauseggers commented 6 years ago

Bingo. su did the trick. However starting the loginwindow fails:

Thank you, that fixed that issue. Next issue was the absence of Xwindow. That was remedied thusly (you should probably add this to the install wiki): yum -y groupinstall "X Window System"

Now starting or restarting the loginwindow gives me a segmentation fault:

armm77 commented 6 years ago

Hi @clauseggers , you could disable SELinux and try again.

I just installed everything again in a new VM and if it works for me following the steps of the wiki, install the xorg with the command that you suggest. (yum -y groupinstall "X Window System").

clauseggers commented 6 years ago

Strange that I get a different result than you. I’m using VMWare Fusion (newest version), but that should hardly make such a difference.

Anyway, disabling SELinux did bring the loginwindow service a bit further, but now I’m stuck at:

hi @clauseggers, I also use fusion, I share my installation history, just that I have the habit of doing the make in my user account and the installation in root.

trunkmaster commented 6 years ago

@clauseggers, I don't know why it sometimes happens. Try to remove /tmp/GNUstepSecure0 directory and restart gdomap, gdnc and loginwindow services as root. I'll add notes about X Window and SELinux into wiki article.

trunkmaster commented 6 years ago

@armm77, you have some problems with fonts setup. However at second screenshot window content uses Helvetica, window title bar is not. Try to replace user home directory content with files from git source tree (System/etc/skel).

trunkmaster commented 6 years ago

Guys, I've made necessary changes into wiki article. Please check it out.

armm77 commented 6 years ago

hi @trunkmaster, in the axmf profile change the typeface when I observed the strange typography of the window titles. I'm going to build a new vm following the new changes in the wiki and I'll tell you if I get something. fonts

trunkmaster commented 6 years ago

@armm77, unfortunately, Font Preferences doesn't manage window titles font. Good idea - I need to implement this.

trunkmaster commented 6 years ago

@clauseggers, have you succeeded?

clauseggers commented 6 years ago

No success. I have no idea why it doesn’t work.

armm77 commented 6 years ago

hi @clauseggers , unfortunately I have had random failures when starting the Login service, while it is solved, I recommend installing lightdm and adding the nextspace.desktop to be able to test NEXTSPACE and see its progress.

Line of interest is perhaps this one:

@clauseggers, do you have gpbs service running? show me the systemctl status gpbs output.

Everything seems correct. Another suggestion: try to disable gpbs service with systemctl disable gpbs and restart loginwindow systemctl restart loginwindow. gpbsd will be started by GNUstep automatically after first request from Login application.

cat /etc/hosts? try to add centos centos.localdomain at the end of the line that starts with 127.0.0.1. I hope it will help.

clauseggers commented 6 years ago

Bingo! https://i.imgur.com/los6o4S.png hosts was:

127.0.0.1   localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4
::1         localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6

so I added centos.localdomain, rebooted, and not it works.

trunkmaster commented 6 years ago

At last! I need to add instruction line to "Build and install" wiki article. Thank you for your patience!

clauseggers commented 6 years ago

You’re welcome! I’m quite impressed with how far you have come with this endeavour. Besides all the stuff that is not done yet, do you have any plans to modernise it, specifically in regards to high PPI displays?

trunkmaster commented 6 years ago

Sure! Not at the first place but I understand the need to adapt to high PPI displays. At the first sight main development effort will be inside GNUstep libraries. It's quite easy to adapt WindowMaker part of Workspace... But most work should be done with icons (switch to vector format - e.g. SVG), GNUstep controls, etc. Once I reached the 1.0 version (read as "implement features I consider important") and synchronize GNUstep libraries to current source tree and start enhance GNUstep part of project.

clauseggers commented 6 years ago

Great. I love NextStep/OpenStep as a window manager come desktop environment, but I just realised that I have no more computers with low-res displays anymore. The future snuck up on me.

trunkmaster commented 6 years ago

It's great to meet somebody with the same desktop vision and expectations. :) Stay tuned.

trunkmaster commented 6 years ago

@clauseggers, I've updated "Build and install" document. Check it out please and confirm issue can be closed.

clauseggers commented 6 years ago

It looks alright. The only detail missing is a $2 in the command under §3.5, so that it becomes: 

# yum install `grep "BuildRequires" nextspace-frameworks.spec | awk -c '{print $2}'`
trunkmaster commented 6 years ago

You are very attentive. Thank you, I've fixed this.
