Build issues on Linux and Mac

[vidjuheffex]

Details:
WSL CentOS7
M1 Macbook Pro

Issues on both

• The instructions to run source rvmds.sh has a typo, should be source rvcmds.sh

Linux Issues (CentOS7 on wsl)

• After running rvcmds.sh the RV_HOME directory is set to nothing (blank), rv build and install and relative to that blank path.
  This results in requirements.txt not being found.
• Needed to install several deps that weren’t listed: easy_setup, meson, ninja-build iirc
• The instructions to change these env variables say to do: unset [name]; export [name]=value; source -bash which doesn’t work. (This is correct on mac and shows: source ./rvcmds.sh
• Once I set the env variables (Mac build identified these correctly) I was able to proceed:

Issues with bootstrapd

• Eventually I face this issue:

Issues steps individually

running rvcfgd:

• I get CMake Warning at cmake/dependencies/CMakeLists.txt:27 (MESSAGE): Unable to init or update git submodules (1) which I don't seem to get on Mac, could be important
• but ultimately completes
• running rvbuildd:

Issues doing manual approach

I end up with: gmake: *** [Makefile:180: main_executable] Error 2

Mac OS Issues

Issues with bootstrapd

• Eventually I get ninja: build stopped: subcommand failed
  • The nearest error seems to be:

• If I run cmake -B _build -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DRV_DEPS_QT5_LOCATION=/Users/jules/Qt/5.15.2/clang_64 instead, it succeeds but if i follow it up with: rvbuild I get the following error:

[ 33%] Built target Mu
make[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/main_executable.dir/rule] Error 2
make: *** [main_executable] Error 2

Issues manually building

• If I follow it up with cmake --build ./_build --config Release -v --parallel=8 --target main_executable, I get the following error:

If anyone has any tips for me on building this software I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

For the Mac issues, my guess is that your python version is too old. If you try python3 --version what does that return? The capture_output flag the script is complaining about was introduced in version 3.6, so I am guessing your python is older than that. I would suggest updating python through brew or pyenv or however you like to manage your python version(s). If you don't know what version to go with, RV is using Python 3.9, so I would suggest that or later should be sufficient.

Hope that helps.

Ahh, I'm using Python 3.6.15 not Python 3.7.16 😒

Thank you very much, I realize WSL CentOS != CentOS so I'm going to close the ticket as that's an unsupported OS I'm running into issues with.
