Message 79536 - Posted: 11 Jul 2017, 22:03:48 UTC

I decided to give this another try. I did find the Locutus of Borg version of wxwidgets3 here, https://launchpad.net/~costamagnagianfranco/+archive/ubuntu/locutusofborg-ppa/+build/9539157 added it to the ppas and installed it with package manager. Is this the recommended version for Ubuntu 14.04.5? I'm using a new download of boinc-master, downloaded about 5 hours after Charlie Fenton's last commit. The compile proceeded further than previously without any errors, other than the constant gtk+-2.0.pc error, and then stopped at the same place as the last time I left it with the older version of boinc-master. The first stop lists a few errors;
In file included from NoticeListCtrl.cpp:36:0:

I also have a Mac, and noticed an annoying problem with the last release 7.6.34. After switching from 7.6.33 the new version is plagued with the waiting notice constantly while the notice almost never appeared with version 7.6.33. So, I'm inclined to think there is some problem somewhere and this looks like a likely location. If not, it's a good start anyway.
Any suggestions on curing the errors and moving on?

Regarding your WxWidgets issue you need to have "libwxgtk-webview3.0-dev" installed if you want to build using the system packages.

You could also use the scripts I prepared to build a static version of wxWidgets direct from sources (./3rdParty/buildLinuxDependencies.sh) and then use that library in the configure phase (./configure --disable-server --disable-client --with-wx-prefix=${TRAVIS_BUILD_DIR}/3rdParty/buildCache/linux). You need to substitute ${TRAVIS_BUILD_DIR} with the path to your source directory. The option needs an absolute path not a relative one!

According to Charlie, the change between .33 and .34 was minimal, only to accommodate the missing Notices when seen under OS X 10.12.4 and above. He asks that you return to 7.6.33 if that's possible and see if the problem continues. Another option is to download 7.6.34 again and reinstall it, just in the minute possibility you got a corrupt download.

The package libwxgtk-webview3.0-dev isn't in the repository for 14.04.5. I do see it listed at https://launchpad.net/~costamagnagianfranco/+archive/ubuntu/locutusofborg-ppa/+build/9539157
Trying the Terminal also fails;
$ sudo apt-get install libwxgtk-webview3.0-dev
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package libwxgtk-webview3.0-dev
E: Couldn't find any package by regex 'libwxgtk-webview3.0-dev'
It does work on another package;
$ sudo apt-get install libwxgtk-media3.0-dev
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
libwxgtk-media3.0-dev is already the newest version.

I have http://ppa.launchpad.net/costamagnagianfranco/locutusofborg-ppa/ubuntu listed twice in other software as main and main source code. What do I need to add to get libwxgtk-webview3.0-dev?

OK, added http://ppa.launchpad.net/costamagnagianfranco/boinc/ubuntu and now I have libwxgtk-webview3.0-dev. After reinstalling the libwx packages I ran it again.
Now it's still giving hundreds of;
g++: warning: /usr/include/libnotify: linker input file unused because linking not done
g++: warning: /usr/include/libnotify: linker input file unused because linking not done
and now stops at;

I don't have a clue about the problems it's having with libnotify, the files are installed and I'm using;
./configure --disable-shared --disable-server --enable-bitness=64 --enable-static --enable-dependency-tracking --host=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu --target=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu --build=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu CPPFLAGS=" -O3 -I/usr/include -I/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/local/lib -I/usr/include/gtk-2.0/gtk -I/usr/include/libnotify -I/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/glib-2.0/include -I/usr/include/cairo -I/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gtk-2.0/include" LIBNOTIFY_CFLAGS="/usr/include/libnotify" LIBNOTIFY_LIBS="/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libnotify.a" PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/gtk+-2.0.pc" GTK_CFLAGS="/usr/include/gtk-2.0/gtk"

Message 79552 - Posted: 12 Jul 2017, 17:43:57 UTC - in response to Message 79550.  

*_FLAGS and *_LIBS are passed to the compiler and linker as command line options. LIBNOTIFY_FLAGS and _LIBS are both incorrect. I'm not sure if GTK_FLAGS is used at all but if it is it's incorrect as well. PKG_CONFIG_PATH doesn't look right either. The configure script does a good job in finding everything by itself as long as you have everything installed so you don't really need much of the stuff you have used now.

You can use this configure line:

configure --enable-optimize --disable-server --disable-boinczip CFLAGS="-g" CXXFLAGS="-g"


That is slightly changed from what I normally use. The "-g" there is so that the executables include debugging information just in case that would be needed.

If you have problems with that configure line then don't randomly add stuff to it. Ask. Most likely you are missing some package.

I think your problem is that configure finds pkg-config in "/usr/local/bin/pkg-config" which looks like a custom installation which does not know about the system installed stuff. So you might be better to find where your system installed pkg-config is and force configure to use that. This should get rid of the other errors as the system pkg-config should be able to find the .pc files which look to be in the default directories.

Also your initial configure line couldn't work because you were trying to build a static version but were linking in shared libraries.

This one is a bit odd too:

checking for OpenGL library... -L/usr/local/lib -lGL
checking for OpenGL Utility library... -L/usr/local/lib -lGLU

checking for GLUT library... -L/usr/local/lib -lglut


Why do you have OpenGL files in /usr/local ? Repository packages shouldn't go there.

What's the best way to remove the pkg-config-0.28.tar.gz installed via the Terminal? Yes, I did install a copy using the Terminal.
Also, does the previous mention of building with shared libraries mean you can't build a static copy of boincmgr? It would be nice to build a version that didn't require installing dependencies the way 7.2.42 does.

Why do you have OpenGL files in /usr/local ?
Because the compiler couldn't find them in the default location? There are a LOT of files the compiler can't seem to find, such as notify.h, gtk.h, etc...etc...

If you still have the build directory running "make uninstall" in the build directory might work. If you don't have it then you need to re-build pkg-config with the same configure line you used last time and then run the uninstall command. It still might not work in which case you need to somehow figure out what it installed and where and remove the files manually.

Also, does the previous mention of building with shared libraries mean you can't build a static copy of boincmgr?


The wxWidgets 3.0 package from LocutusOfBorg's PPA doesn't include static version. You'd need to build wxWidgets 3.0 yourself, maybe using the script Christian mentioned. I'm not going to walk you through building the Manager that way.

Because the compiler couldn't find them in the default location? There are a LOT of files the compiler can't seem to find, such as notify.h, gtk.h, etc...etc...


The compiler can find files just fine once the configure script has done it's job. By installing packages from source without Ubuntu patches you have essentially broken your system.

Well, I used the same files in Ubuntu that I had been using on my Mac, since I already had them...and they worked fine on the Mac.
autoconf-2.69.tar.gz
automake-1.15.tar.gz
jpegsrc.v9a.tar.gz
libtool-2.4.tar.gz
m4-latest.tar.gz
pkg-config-0.28.tar.gz

So, your saying you can't use the latest version from the source. You have to use the repository version. Nice.
They seem to work fine building the Science Apps. All the Apps I've built were using the above files, they seem to be working well.

I'm thinking about just replacing this system with 16.04.2 and trying it from there. I have another 14.04.5 system on another partition using the same Home partition that I can use if 16.04.2 doesn't work. I suppose the wxWidgets 3.0 package from LocutusOfBorg's PPA will work in 16.04.2? Fortunately I have the Berkeley BOINC on the Home partition so erasing the current system partition shouldn't be a problem.

Well, that seemed to work out very well. I now have a working 7.7 BOINC Manager (Pre-release) running in the Home folder of Ubuntu 16.04. It only has a couple of the annoyances present in the old 7.4.24. The biggest problem is the scroll bar has a tendency to jump to the bottom of the page after an update. Another is the AM/PM EDT tends to go and come from the Event log. It's also a pain to try and slide the Top Columns to the left to hide the SETI@home Column, it's difficult to hide the leftmost letter. It does update the numbers though, unlike 7.4.24. The wxWidgets 3.0 files were all in the repository so I just used those instead of the ones from LocutusOfBorg. I had to breakdown and install OpenSSL from the Terminal, nothing from the repository would produce the needed library, everything else from the repository worked though. I wonder if the other wxWidgets 3 would fix the jumping scroll bar, that's really the only major problem...so far.

Coprocessors - [2] NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 (1999MB) driver: 381.22 OpenCL: 1.2
Operating System - Linux Ubuntu
Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS [4.8.0-58-generic]
BOINC version - 7.7.0


I just love how the Home folder looks exactly the same with a brand new system partition, it makes major repairs very simple.

May I ask why you wanted to build a static version of the Manager in the first place? This is usually only needed for the official release not for personal builds. I'm glad it worked with Ubuntu 16.04 although in general it should work with 14.04. too if pkg-config is found. It even still works with 12.04. (without ppa's).

I got the static build working at one point but the resulting manager always segfaulted.

I was hoping it would be possible to produce something that might convince BOINC to update their Downloads to something more recent than 7.2.42, and actually worked with a newer version of Linux. There are a few people switching to Linux and find it difficult to deal with the SETI@home folder in their system folder. It's much easier for a new user to deal with placing files in their Home folder than a system folder. This machine has three systems on it, 12.04, 14.04, and now 16.04. The other systems also have the pkg-config installed via the Terminal.
Does Berkeley ever intend to release a newer version for Linux? It would seem it's way past due.

BOINC is a community controlled project and although the same people are still onboard, "Berkeley" is not in charge. The reason that there is no newer Linux release on the website is a rather technical problem as you yourself encountered. Debian ships version 7.6.33 without any problems and I would happily make this the recommended version, yet the instructions are not detailed enough to build a release version. I tried to inquire more information to fix the release build but so far I had no luck.

If it's not possible to post a recommended version then perhaps the Development version 7.4.22 can be updated? From what I've seen, the current build is much better than 7.4.22 which didn't even update the progress numbers. If you choose to display just the active tasks the bouncing scroll bar goes away, and so far that seems to be the only major problem.

Recommending 7.4.22 will not solve the problem only postpone it further. It is also not the newest version in the 7.4 series. If there is a problem with the version you build please state the SHA1 commit which you used to build your version and the wxWidgets version used (about dialog of the Manager). Can you also explain what you mean by "the scroll bar has a tendency to jump to the bottom of the page after an update" and give some steps to reproduce?

It's also a pain to try and slide the Top Columns to the left to hide the SETI@home Column, it's difficult to hide the leftmost letter

I guess you mean the "Project" column in the "Tasks" tab? Since 7.6 you can hide columns by going to Options -> Select Columns ... and untick the columns you don't want to see.
