[SOLVED] slackbuild for smb4k-1.0.7 fails with a cmake error.

camorri · 06-24-2013, 01:08 PM

Running the slackbuild produces these errors:

Code:

CMake Error at /usr/share/apps/cmake/modules/FindKDE4Internal.cmake:350 (cmake_minimum_required):
  CMake 2.8.9 or higher is required.  You are running version 2.8.8
Call Stack (most recent call first):
  /usr/share/cmake-2.8/Modules/FindKDE4.cmake:95 (FIND_PACKAGE)
  CMakeLists.txt:12 (find_package)

This is Slack 14, 64 bit. Not current.

The cmake package installed is:

ls /var/log/packages | grep cmake
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 34639 Apr 16 13:39 cmake-2.8.8-x86_64-2
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 659 Apr 17 2011 gccmakedep-1.0.2-noarch-2

I just ran slackpkg upgrade-all, there does not appear to be a newer version of cmake available.

Your thoughts on how to fix?

upgraded package normally came into -Current, not in -Stable, unless there's a security issues or it's considered SO important to have it backported in -Stable.

Maybe I didn't make myself clear.

I did a 'slackpkg update'

'slackpkg install-new'

'slackpkg upgrade-all'

'slackpkg clean-system' as normal maintenance. There was a new curl package updated with this process. So far, all is well.

I then ran sbopkg to look for updates to other packages. I have smb4k installed. There is an update to if, that is what won't compile, due to the cmake error. BTW, the same situation is present on the 32 bit version.

a new curl is required since it fixed a security vulnerabilities

anyway, you can try to install newer cmake from AlienBOB's KTown repository:
http://alien.slackbook.org/ktown/14.0/4.10.4/x86/tools/ (32 bit)
http://alien.slackbook.org/ktown/14..../x86_64/tools/ (64 bit)

I just built smb4k-1.07 on a 14.0 64bit system without any problems, cmake version is 2.8.8, same as yours. I also checked the smb4k CMakeLists.txt file for the required version of cmake:

Code:

cmake_minimum_required( VERSION 2.6 )

The /usr/share/apps/cmake/modules/FindKDE4Internal.cmake file requires version 2.6.4:

Code:

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.6.4 FATAL_ERROR)

Do the files in your system have the same lines? I'm wondering if there's something different in your FindKDE4Internal.cmake...

I looked hear,

Quote:

/usr/share/apps/cmake/modules/FindKDE4Internal.cmake

and I see

Quote:

# this is required now by cmake 2.6 and so must not be skipped by if(KDE4_FOUND) below
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8.9 FATAL_ERROR)

I think I know what has happened. I updated to KDE 4.10.3,the newer version AlianBob has on his web site. So this appears to be a self inflicted problem. If you agree, I will mark this solved. I can live with the older version of smb4k, that is not a show stopper.

I had a fast look at willysr's suggestion, for a newer version of cmake. Is that a fairly safe thing to do, or am I likely to break other packages? Looks like going to current might be a faster, less risky solution. I'm not sure.

Every ones help is appreciated, thank-you.

willysr · 06-25-2013, 06:13 AM

yes, the newer cmake is safe to be used

camorri · 06-25-2013, 08:20 AM

I installed the newer version of cmake as suggested by willysr. I was then able to use sbopkg and updated smb4k. This thread is solved.
