Can't find a program I installed

I installed Pixie 3D renderer via Sourcery. I got the message telling me all actions have been completed successfully. The program is supposed to be available in the Graphics sub-menu. But it isn't there. I tried running it via Run Program and got nothing. Can anybody tell me how to find it? Or how to verify it did install correctly?

I'll have to find out when I get home Monday night.

I did find a directory associated with the program. So I know it was at least partially installed.

It looks like it's fully installed.

But I don't think that's everything it should have. That looks like the docs and libs. I don't see any bins.

Can you also post the respective logs from Sourcery?

It looks like there is no menu entry in the package. The binaries that are included in the package are these:

Code: Select all

usr/bin/rndr
usr/bin/sdrc
usr/bin/sdrinfo
usr/bin/show
usr/bin/texmake
I am not familiar with this, so I don't know if that's all that should be there or not. But if there are no errors in the Sourcery logs (and I'm guessing there aren't any), I think that's it.

How would I change that command to get the Sourcery logs?
I'll check it this evening when I get home.

I did find the slack.build script in the doc directory. It doesn't mention any bin files or directories. So I'm guessing that's the problem.

From the menu in Sourcery, View/Logs.

It shouldn't matter that there is no mention in the slackbuild script.

Have you used this software before? Is it supposed to have a GUI?

I haven't used it. But, yes, it has a GUI.

While I'm thinking about it, isn't there a command to find orphaned dependencies? I tried installing both Blender and FreeCAD via Sourcery and both installs crashed. There's no telling what kind of clutter that left behind.

What do you mean "crashed"?

And did you try any of the binaries I pointed at you?

Re: Can't find a program I installed

I didn't see your reply until I was already on my way to work this morning. So I haven't had a chance to check out those bins.

By crashed I mean stopped and gave an error message. FreeCAD stops almost instantly, saying there was a problem downloading the source code for a dependency. Blender ran for a few hours before stopping. In both cases it said remaining items in the queue would be purged.

I thought about installing from source. But I am completely incapable of diagnosing problems. So if configure, make, make install doesn't work I'm just as lost as I am now.
