Hi, Is MitoGraph exclusive to Mac OS? -Arijit

vianamp commented 4 years ago

At this moment MitoGraph releases are only provided for Mac OS.

However, you can compile the code yourself in other operating systems. If you want I can put in contact with people who have done that.

Best,

Hi, sorry for the late reply. Yeah, it will be great if you can put me in touch with people who could make it work in Linux systems.

Would you mind emailing me at vianamp@gmail.com? So that I can share the contacts with you? Thanks

Hi :) I was able to compile it just now. Here's some tips. I used fresh ubuntu 19.10. Packaged version of required VTK library (libvtk7-dev) was not good enough to compile MitoGraph. I needed to download source code from https://github.com/Kitware/VTK I checked out the v7.1.1 release (MitoGraph requires VTK 7, so I assumed it's the closest). After installing compiled VTK I was able to compile MitoGraph. It didn't work though, because /usr/local/lib was not added to /etc/ld.so.conf. After this addition and executing sudo ldconf I was able to run MitoGraph. Hope it helps! Let me know if you need more detailed explenation of any of mentioned steps! Cheers!
