HOW-TO: Building amaroK from SVN source

**daobear** · November 28th, 2005

Hi. I'm having problems similar to what a couple of others have had.
My first question is this: We download a file called amarok-svn.sh, but the command is ./get-amarok-svn.sh? I added execute to the file permissions, but hen I type ./get-amarok-svn.sh I get the error:

Code:

bash: ./get-amarok-svn.sh: No such file or directory

So instead I tried
sudo ./amarok-svn.sh

I needed the sudo otherwise it couldn't create the directory /opt/amarok-svn.
It started to install, but when it get to linking to the collection scanner, I get errors:

Code:

linking ./amarok/src/collectionscanner/amarokcollectionscanner
/bin/sh ./libtool --silent --mode=link --tag=CXX g++ -Wno-long-long -Wundef -ans i -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=500 -D_BSD_SOURCE -Wcast-align -Wconversion -Wchar-subscripts -Wall -W -Wpointer-arith -g3 -fno-inline -Wformat-security -Wmissing-format-attr ibute -Wno-non-virtual-dtor -fno-exceptions -fno-check-new -fno-common -DQT_CLEA N_NAMESPACE -DQT_NO_ASCII_CAST -DQT_NO_STL -DQT_NO_COMPAT -DQT_NO_TRANSLATION -D QT_THREAD_SUPPORT -D_REENTRANT -L/usr/lib -L/usr/share/qt3/lib -L/usr/X11R6/lib -R /usr/lib -R /usr/lib -R /usr/share/qt3/lib -R /usr/X11R6/lib -o ./amarok/src/ collectionscanner/amarokcollectionscanner ./amarok/src/metadata/libmetadata.la - lqt-mt -lz -lpng -lz -lm -lXext -lX11 -lSM -lICE -lpthread -lkdecore -L/usr/loca l/lib -ltag ./amarok/src/collectionscanner/main.o ./amarok/src/collectionscanner /collectionscanner.o

This is followed by many undefine reference errors (I won't list them all here), and then by

Code:

I'm not really sure what all this means. Help?
BTW, I'm using Gnome.

They changed the name of the file recently. I updated that line of the how-to. Thanks for pointing it out.

I needed the sudo otherwise it couldn't create the directory /opt/amarok-svn.

Perhaps I should recommend running it from /home instead. It never use to be a problem because the prior script had to be run as sudo.

It started to install, but when it get to linking to the collection scanner, I get errors:

I noticed that Ubuntu recently made those files available, but they installed automatically on my machine during a system update.

Try:

Code:

sudo apt-get install libstdc++6 libstdc++6-4.0-dev

I am getting this error after running ./amarok-svn.sh in my home directory. To see the full output: http://amarok.pastebin.com/451821

Does anyone have any idea what could cause this? It was working perfectly a week ago... This file "/usr/lib/libstdc++.la" doesn't even exist, although I have all of the requisite libraries installed.

Cheers, Simon

See the end of post 92 and give that a try.

You should also download the apt-file package...it's super handy in situations like this because it gives you a list of every package that contains the file. You might have to install a few before you get it right, but it really narrows things down for you.

Code:

sudo apt-get install apt-file
sudo apt-file update

Then:

Code:

mlomker@mlomkernote:/$ apt-file search libstdc++.la
gcc-snapshot: usr/lib/gcc-snapshot/lib/debug/libstdc++.la
gcc-snapshot: usr/lib/gcc-snapshot/lib/libstdc++.la

Do you know how to use this method to compile amaroK with MySQL support? I've installed mysql-server-4.1 as well as mysql-common-4.1, & mysql-client-4.1, and the server is started (mysqld is running).

I tried using ./amarok-svn.sh, and when it prompts me for parameters, I use "--enable-mysql". The configure script then searches for mysql, but the console shows this:

Code:

checking for mysql_config... no

and later:

Code:

 = The following extra functionality will NOT be included:
 =   - aRts-engine
 =   - NMM-engine
 =   - MAS-engine
 =   - Helix-engine
 =   - libvisual Support
 =   - XMMS Visualization Wrapper
 =   - MySql Support
 =   - Postgresql Support
 =   - MusicBrainz Support
 =   - Moodbar Support
 =   - iRiver iFP Support

Anyone know why the script wouldn't see mysql_config, and how I can make sure that it's there?

EDIT: I figured out what I was missing, namely libmysqlclient-dev. I had the library files, but not the development files. Once I installed that, I was able to compile with MySQL support using the "--enable-mysql" parameter.

I think I messed up at the begennig but how can I start over? I deleted the amarok-svn folder but want to get rid of what it already installed and try again.

Any chance to have the script to just compile and not install? I would like to use checkinstall to make a deb for easy removal later.

When you run the script, run "./amarok-svn.sh -r" . This will reset the script and let you reconfigure all of those options from the beginning. I had a lot of problems when trying to get the AAC tags to work. I reset the bloody thing repeatedly and it ended up working in the end.

You're talking about the MP4/AAC piece? Did you install any additional packages? I've been looking for the dependencies on some of these 'extras' and haven't had luck with some of them.

**gk_jam** · December 8th, 2005

I got mp4/aac support to work pretty easily. Just make sure that libmp4v2 dev and faad2 dev packages are installed.
