(Solved) Lilypond/Frescobaldi dependencies for Slackbuild.

[globetrotterdk]

Does anyone of hand know what the dependencies are for the lilypond and frescobaldi slackbuilds? The error messages that I am getting and the documentation on the builds aren't very clear in my opinion. I am using Salix64 MATE 14.1.

Hi Globetrotter,

Lilypond: in order, if doing it manually....slapt-get/slapt-src or spi should build it just fine.
guile1.8
potrace
t1utils
mftrace
fontforge
lilypond

Frescobald:
python-poppler-qt4
lilypond (which would already be built)

Thanks for the quick reply. All of the dependencies are installed for lilypond, yet I keep getting the following error:

Code: Select all

What gives?
Edit----
The python-poppler-qt4 build fails as well.

I have tried slapt-src and spi on both

It needs a latex installation. Installing the tetex package should do it. If you need latex to do real work, it should be preferable to install texlive manually.

No such luck, unfortunately. I am still getting the same error.

Which one? You also need PyQt for the second error.

edit: for latex to become available you need to either source the script in /etc/profile.d, or log out and then back in.

Thanks. I got Lilypond installed, but have come across a new hurdle with Frescobaldi. Frescobaldi depends on python-poppler-qt4, but when I try to build python-poppler-qt4, I get the message:

Code: Select all

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "setup.py", line 35, in <module>
    import PyQt4.pyqtconfig
ImportError: No module named PyQt4.pyqtconfig

Is this because spi isn't applying the included patch to the Slackbuild? If spi can't include patches, that would mean that I have to patch the python-poppler-qt4.SlackBuild manually. with a

Code: Select all

sudo patch -p1 < /home/user/Desktop/python-poppler-qt4-0.16.2-poppler-0.20.0.patch

???

No spi does not apply patches, the Slackbuild does that. The reason why your build failed is because you don't have PyQT installed. This is another case where the Slackbuild assumes a full slackware install and therefore has an undeclared dependency on PyQT.

I did:

Code: Select all

$ sudo spi -i frescobaldi 

and it build and installed all packages including lilypond without problems, but I already had PyQT installed.

That seems to have sorted the problem out. Many thanks.
