View source for Installation of yade on fedora

[[Category:Installation]]{{Installation quick access}}{{clr}}

<strong>THESE INSTRUCTIONS ARE OBSOLETE</strong> and you are welcome to update them if you happen to run fedora.

== Fedora Extras 6==

Get prequisities:
 yum install gcc-c++ qt-devel glut boost boost-devel scons wget tar gunzip tar make libXmu libXmu-devel diff glut-devel 
 yum install ScientificPython python-devel   # those are '''''optional'''''
 wget http://artis.imag.fr/Members/Gilles.Debunne/QGLViewer/src/libQGLViewer-2.2.5-1.src.rpm
 PATH=$PATH:/usr/lib/qt-3.3/bin QTDIR=/usr/lib/qt-3.3/ rpmbuild --rebuild libQGLViewer-2.2.5-1.src.rpm

Optionally you might want to '''[[Installation_details#Installing_the_wildmagic_3_library_on_debian|install the wildmagic 3 library]]''', which can be used by Lattice Geometrical Model. But is not absolutely necassary (used only for Delaunay mesh generation method in lattice model).

Run command below from inside <tt>yade-0.11.0/</tt> directory to install yade as a local user without root privileages (recommended):

 scons PREFIX=/home/''username''/YADE optimize=1

Replace <tt>''username''</tt> with your user name. Be sure to check out scons options on [[Installation_details#Scons_options|installation details page]] for optimized builds or different installation directory.

==Fedora core 4 note==

On '''fedora core 4''' the gcc 4 generates an error when it encounters an anonymous enum. It is no longer possible to write

 enum {value = 1 }

It must be written instead:

 enum enumname {value = 1 }

Under fedora 4 the default compiler is gcc 4 and some header files from stl still contain anonymous enums. You must edit those .h files and give any name to those enums. Among other files this must be corrected:
/usr/include/c++/4.0.?/bits/cpp_type_traits.h, and some of QT headers, like qcolor.h. Remember to give different name to each enum. Inside there is something like this:

 template<>
     struct __is_integer<bool>
     {
       enum { __value = 1 };
       typedef __true_type __type;
     };

Replace it with:

 template<>
     struct __is_integer<bool>
     {
       enum enumname1 { __value = 1 };
       typedef __true_type __type;
     };

In above case the compilation error was reported as:
 .../yade/yade-lib-wm3-math/Math.ipp:53: error:
 `std::__is _integer<double>::<anonymous enum>' is/uses anonymous type

==Mach chroot under ubuntu==

Mach is automated chroot builder for rpm-based distributions; it is run like this (on ubuntu):

 mach -r [distribution-variant] setup build 
The <tt>[distribution-variant]</tt> needs to be looked up in /etc/mach/dist.d/* and is defined as 'alias'; in my case, it was fedora-6-i386-extras
 mach -r ... yum install yum
 mach -r ... chroot 
 yum install ... # this is inside the chroot; check /etc/resolv.conf also
