(solved) qgis not building

herOldMan · 2014-01-19 01:24:07

Fresh Arch install.

I cannot compile the AUR qgis package (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/qgis/)

The pkgbuild specifies: python2-pyqt>=4.10.4dev, which does not appear to be available. (Perhaps I just don't know where to find it.)

I attempted the installs with >=4.10.3-1 and >=5.2-1

The attempt using the 5.2-1 version nearly completes (~96%). I appoligize for not having the specific error. I believe it was a sip function call that was not defined.

No matter, the current package build does not function. I also tried the qgis-1.6 package and it fails as well. I did not try either the custom or git packages.

Has anyone installed this sucessfully... recently?

I have seen some posts sugesting downgrading to cfitsio 3.350-2 or compiling GDAL versus a current cfitsio. Downgrading is not an option for me and GDAL was built with today's cfitsio.

Any ideas?

I guess python2-pyqt is now called python2-pyqt4. What exactly went wrong when you tried using this package as the dependency?

Takeshi_Kovacs · 2014-01-19 01:58:55

Have you tried installing this: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/pyqt4dev/ as per saultdon's comment in the qgis AUR?

daroczig, that's a reference to the "pyqt4dev" package in the AUR. https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/pyqt4dev/
Comment by daroczig 2013-12-02 10:19
Any idea where can I get "python2-pyqt4>=4.10.4a"?

EDIT:
Ok, so Karol seems to have been correct and I changed the PKGBUILD, I bow to your superior knowledge

However, once I'd got through installing all the AUR dependencies and got through to makepkg for qgis, it took an hour to get to this:

I would press on but it's really late here and I need sleep. Also I'm not sure I understand why it has failed.
Should I open a new post on this or leave this here, as it seems to be related?

Yes, this is the error I see as well.

oangelo · 2014-01-22 18:19:24

Same here!
All this is related to sip and pyqt4:
http://hub.qgis.org/issues/8826
Are there any workaround?

saultdon · 2014-01-23 06:28:44

There were some changes to pyqt4dev recently.

Now you have to install sipdev from the AUR before you install pyqt4dev. It's a new dependency for pyqt4dev (an updated SIP).

QGIS compiled fine from my end after these latest updates.

PS: sipdev is currently flagged out of date, but you can replace _snapshot=0b19f77489ce and also md5sums=('SKIP') for a quick fix.

Thank you sauldon. This was the solution. I'll post a short summary on the AUR page.

Hi, just to confirm it is so far compiling correctly on my pc. However, being a beginner I'm not sure if this part of your summary on the AUR page is instructions for the maintainer or for users. It sounds like the first but I just wanted to make sure. Many thanks to both herOldMan and Saultdon for the work done.

herOldMan · 2014-01-27 19:18:05

Hi,

Re: maintainer or for users

It's a note on how I implemented the solution provided by Sauldon. It's a note to myself and others who stumble down my path.

This is an incrediably important program and building it is a sizeable task (typically 60-90 minutes of compilation). As luck would have it, the failures recurred at ~96% into the process.

saultdon · 2014-01-29 16:07:16

Also note that, because qscintilla (python2-qscintilla) also depends on python2-pyqt4 (from your recompiled pyqt4dev).
It's good to note that users might want to re-compile qscintilla against their updated pyqt4dev.

QGIS will start and run without re-compiling qscintilla (I haven't seen any errors), but I re-compiled just to be safe.

@Takeshi_Kovacs I build qgis with ccache enabled, it dramatically reduces compile time.

This is from the INSTALL.txt in the qgis source at https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/blob/master/INSTALL:

3.4. Setup ccache (Optional)
============================
You should also setup ccache to speed up compile times:
cd /usr/local/bin
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/ccache gcc
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/ccache g++

And then from the ccache manual at http://ccache.samba.org/manual.html#_run_modes, they suggest a more thorough setup, but might not be needed for compiling qgis:

ln -s ccache /usr/local/bin/gcc
ln -s ccache /usr/local/bin/g++
ln -s ccache /usr/local/bin/cc
ln -s ccache /usr/local/bin/c++

Also note that you may need to enable ccache in /etc/makepkg.conf - it's negated in the options with !ccache, just remove the exclamation mark.

kero, please edit your post.
When posting configs, code or command output, please use [ code ] tags, not [ quote ] tags https://bbs.archlinux.org/help.php#bbcode

like this

It makes the code more readable and - in case of longer listings - more convenient to scroll through.

Next time please run

LC_ALL=C <command>

to get the output in English.

archlinuxgis unofficial repo used to provide qgis, unfortunately it went offline. Maybe somebody else would like to host the prebuild binaries?

I was able to install this on a 3rd machine that had certain packages orphaned from previous atempts. My first step was to remove all of the orphans. Just for good measure I removed grass grass also.

Then, as appears in the most recent post on the qgis AUR page, I followed exactly:
1) yaourt sipdev
2) yaourt pyqt4dev
3) yaourt qgis
> remove depends for python2-pyqt
> remove makedepends for python2-sip
