Re: gEDA-user: geda install on Ubuntu

["Ed & Angie S." <edangies@xxxxxxxxx>]

Peter,

Thanks for the reply.

My initial email was lacking that I am trying to install from the gEDA 
20070221 CD.  My new Ubuntu machine will be my second gEDA installation and 
I would like it to be the same version of gEDA as my original debian 
machine.

I thought the installer installed the dependencies the first time through 
but I guess it didn't.   I have subsequently installed the following 
packages using aptitude:

guile1.6-dev
libwxgtk2.8-dev
tcl8.4
tcl8.4-dev
tk8.4
tk8.4-dev
libgtk2.0-dev
libreadline5-dev
flex
bison
gperf
libjpeg62-dev

I then re-ran the installer and geda/gaf seems to have installed ok.  pcb, 
ngspice, gnucap, icarus, and gspiceui are not installed correctly yet.  I 
would like to get them all working but pcb is my critical issue for an 
ongoing project.  I have attached the install.log and pcb config.log files.

The installer no longer asks if I want to install any software so I'm hoping 
I am far closer to working than I was previously.  However, the Install.log 
file indicates that my machine is missing gtk-config.  I've found some 
discussion on this issue but I'm still not sure what to do or if I need this 
with libgtk2.0-dev installed.

For pcb, the error indicates that my gd installation does not include 
support for jpeg.  For other programs the message "error trying to exec 
'cc1plus': execvp: No such file or directory" seems to be a problem.  I 
suspect I'm missing some required packages but I'm not sure what to install 
to fix these problems.

Any help would be much appreciated.  Thanks.

Best regards,
Ed
