Unable to install GLScene components!

[mbnoimi]

Hi All.

For installing GLScene I tried to get latest version of it from svn repository but I noticed that current trunk doesn't contain on /glscene/globallinks/*.lpl (as mentioned in this wiki page) so I created a new folder at /usr/lib/lazarus/0.9.29/components/GLScene/ then run Lazarus and selected all .lpk files (except GLS_WinOnly.lpk) and clicked on 'compile' for glscene_runtime, but it gave me error message "A required packages was not found. See package graph." for ImagesForLazarus package!

How can I install GLScene smoothly in Lazarus?

Notes:

• I've kubuntu 10.10 amd 64x
• Wiki page didn't talk about installing process in Linux.
  
• I could successfully install GLScene in Windows.

guys, any response! I couldn't  find any doc talking about this issue!

[mbnoimi]

I tried to use freepascal repository instead of sourceforge repos.

freepascal has /glscene/globallinks/*.lpl but it gave same error messages as shown in the following screenshots:

could anyone help me?

as trial for fixing this issue, I tried to remove ImagesForLazarus dependency but it didn't fix it because when I clicked on "save & rebuild" I got this fatal error during compiling Lazarus:

Code: [Select]

Fatal: Can't find unit GTKProc used by GLLinGTKContext
QuickFixUnitNotFoundPosition unit not found: GLLinGTKContext
TExternalToolList.Run Exception: /usr/lib/lazarus/0.9.29/components/glscene/Source/platform/gllingtkcontext.pas(1,1) Fatal: Can't find unit GTKProc used by GLLinGTKContext

[Laksen]

Try rebuilding the entire IDE. Under Tools->Build all.. and then try installing the package again

[pch]

At the moment get glscene from http://svn.freepascal.org/svn/fpcprojects/glscene/trunk
I don't know which version of fpc is require for the sourceforge version, for me with 2.4.3 it complain about the generics.

To make it work with Gtk2 read this report:
http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=16890

And reinstall Imageforlazarus, it is realy required.

[mbnoimi]

I did as you said guys but once again I got new error message when I tried to rebuild entire Lazarus

Code: [Select]

Compiling /usr/lib/lazarus/0.9.29/components/glscene/Source/fileformats/tga.pas

What I've to do now?!

I've latest Lazarus with latest glscene but both of them I've many troubles !!

Try the following:

Code: [Select]

cd lazarus/components/images
../../lazbuild --os=linux --widgetset=gtk2 --cpu=x86_64 imagesforlazarus.lpk
Then rebuild lazarus from the ide.

[mbnoimi]

ERROR: File not found: /usr/lib/lazarus/0.9.29/components/images/imagesforlazarus.lpk do you suggest to fetch Lazarus trunk, or nightly build enough?!

[pch]

Strange ... this must be in the snapshot too.
I just checked in lazarus-0.9.29-28909-20110109-src.zip and it's OK.

But I always use subversion because this is much quicker to update.
At the moment I use the branch  http://svn.freepascal.org/svn/lazarus/branches/fixes_0_9_30

[mbnoimi]

I still get same error message!

Code: [Select]

fpc-2.4.2-0.amd64.deb.tar

and glscene from:

What I've to do now?

I'm unable to make my open source project (Ensala(Robots simulator)) truly cross-platform! I didn't face any problem in Windows where in Linux I faced ton of issues

[BlueIcaro]

Did you test if this missed file it's on your harddisk?

/BlueIcaro

[mbnoimi]

Did you test if this missed file it's on your harddisk?

for imagesforlazarus.lpk
I couldn't find it at all

for laztga.pas
I found it at components/images/ but I don't know why Lazarus unable to find it and shows error message for it!

Code: [Select]

Fatal: Can't find unit LazTGA used by TGA
QuickFixUnitNotFoundPosition unit not found: TGA
TExternalToolList.Run Exception: /usr/lib/lazarus/0.9.31/components/glscene/Source/fileformats/tga.pas(1,1) Fatal: Can't find unit LazTGA used by TGA
I still believe that all errors come from missed package ImagesForLazarus, do you think that too ?

[mbnoimi]

it's important to say that I found:
components/images/imagesforlazarus.pas
packager/globallinks/imagesforlazarus-1.0.1.lpl

but I didn't find imagesforlazarus.lpk !
