Installing Eagle CAD fails

Hi!

I've tried installing eagle CAD software (eagle 5.7.0-3 in AUR), but it fails with the following:

HTTP request sent, awaiting response... 301 Moved Permanently
Location: http://schlunix.org/archlinux/extra/os/i686/libjpeg-6b-6-i686.pkg.tar.gz [following]

==> ERROR: Failure while downloading libjpeg-6b-6-i686.pkg.tar.gz
    Aborting...

Although libjpeg is installed with pacman. I tried using the official install script from eagle website which also fails with:

/tmp/eagle-setup.19179/eagle-5.7.0/bin/eagle: error while loading shared libraries: libjpeg.so.62: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

So, how can I get this elusive version of libjpeg and why doesn't the standard one which is installed work?

Thanks,
-igor

Re: Installing Eagle CAD fails

why doesn't the standard one which is installed work?

Because they don't provide the source code, so we have to rely on their precompiled binaries.  Their binaries were built against libjpeg6.

So, how can I get this elusive version of libjpeg

Install libjpeg6 or lib32-libjpeg6 depending on your arch.  I've updated the PKGBUILD to reflect this now.  The schlunix mirror holds older packages, but libjpeg-6b-6 is too old even for it now.

Re: Installing Eagle CAD fails

Hi tdy,

Thanks for the help and the explanation. Unfortunately I'm still unable to install eagle CAD. The following happens:

==> Installing missing dependencies...
libjpeg6 package not found, searching for group...
error: 'libjpeg6': not found in sync db
==> ERROR: Pacman failed to install missing dependencies.

Ok, no big deal, I'll install libjpeg6 6b-9 from AUR. However that fails as well with:

==> Making package: libjpeg6 6b-9 i686 (Fri Feb 19 12:13:43 CET 2010)
==> Checking Runtime Dependencies...
==> Checking Buildtime Dependencies...
==> Retrieving Sources...
  -> Found libjpeg6b_6b.orig.tar.gz in build dir
==> ERROR: locale-fixes.patch was not found in the build directory and is not a URL.

I'm guessing its now an issue with libjpeg6, not with eagle. I'll try to get libjpeg6 from the arch linux game repo as suggested on the AUR page and see if that works.

-Igor

UPDATE: I got libjpeg6 installed from the arch games repo, so I tried installing eagle again, but it fails with:

==> ERROR: eagle.desktop was not found in the build directory and is not a URL.

after downloading the eagle installer.

Re: Installing Eagle CAD fails

Finally, I managed to install the version downloaded from the eagle website, but not the one from AUR.

==> ERROR: eagle.desktop was not found in the build directory and is not a URL.

Considering you got this same error on both packages, I'm pretty sure you just saved the PKGBUILD by itself.  You need to download the whole tarball to get all the pre-packaged files, unless you want to save them all manually.

I suggest reading through the AUR User Guidelines to familiarize yourself with the basics.

Re: Installing Eagle CAD fails

Use this PKGBUILD instead: http://github.com/fraktil/arch-games/bl … 6/PKGBUILD
Same PKGBUILD on pastebin: http://aur.pastebin.com/GagsLfAS

Using this one doesn't yield "==> ERROR: locale-fixes.patch was not found in the build directory and is not a URL."
