Repository packages shouldn't go there. Same thing happens with a brand New install of 14.04.5. So, you tell me why the compiler is looking for OpenGL files in /usr/local/lib. Short version is there isn't any OpenGL files there, never was any, why it insists on looking there is a mystery. The files are in usr/include/GL, but, it refuses to look there even when repeatedly prompted. I gave up and just changed the makefile to -L/usr/include/gl -lglut, etc. I have No idea if it worked but got tired of fooling with it....it's only a screensaver! Since the wxWidget files from The Borg apparently only show up in 14.04, I built another set of files in 14.04.5 using a new boinc-master download from a few hours ago. This time the Active Tasks, sorted by Progress, are staying at the Top of the Page. The AM/PM EDT tags are still disappearing and reappearing, but, it's not going to bother me at this point. Right now I'm just marveling over having BOINC 7.7 working in My Home folder, and working fairly nicely at that. I stuck with the 14.04.1 image for the install just in case I need to run my ATI cards in this system. The ATI cards hate anything over kernel 3.13xxx Coprocessors - [2] NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 (1999MB) driver: 381.22 OpenCL: 1.2 Operating System - Linux Ubuntu Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS [3.13.0-123-generic] BOINC version - 7.7.0 I wonder what version of BOINC it really is, I don't think the zip files have the correct version number included.

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? 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. I'm back running Sierra with 7.6.34 and this time it seems to work normally. I still get the Connecting to Client message sometimes on BOINC startup, but I can now open the Computing preferences without getting the message. I did make a change before going back to 10.12.4, somehow the SIP had been turned back on previously. I disabled it again before using it this time. That's about the only difference, besides installing it with a new BOINC download. I dunno, it seems to be working normally now. I'm going to try the wxWidgets version from the borg on the Linux machine and see if that works any better. I'm still having the active tasks end up being out of view every once and a while. It seems the Manager is intent on keeping the Downloads area in view for some reason when using the wxWidgets from the repository.

Any other setting results in the active tasks being hidden from view sooner or later. Otherwise, All the active tasks have Active progress bars and times unlike 7.4.22. Hey, at least you get a good view of what tasks are being downloaded as they appear just above the active tasks. It's a little different...but works.
24) Message boards : BOINC Manager : Compiling BOINC Manager 7.7 in Ubuntu 14.04.5 Message 79591 Posted 13 Jul 2017 by TBar	No, I don't think you should do anything with 7.4.xx, except trash it. I couldn't stand running that version more than half a day. What I was suggesting was to keep 7.2.42 as recommended and change the Development version to your 7.6.33 or something else. Even the version I just built is better than 7.4.22. I downloaded the zip version from GitHub about five hours after this commit, https://github.com/BOINC/boinc/commit/618d1d2a4d089d09ea880148407ae4a79b795f89 in the About Tab it says 7.7.0(x64) wxWidgets 3.0.2. I have deleted the Project Column from the Tasks tab. The problem with the Scroll bar is when the scheduler updates and reports the completed tasks the Scroll bar will jump to the bottom of the page ever so often. This was also present in 7.4.xx. Nothing is required to reproduce it manually, it happens when Tasks are sorted by Progress and the tasks are automatically reported. It appears the view is being changed to display the new tasks being downloaded. If you change the sorting to have the in progress tasks at the bottom, the next jump will move up to show the downloading tasks. The other problem is at random times the AM EDT tags on the times will disappear and reappear in the Event Log, I can't remember if this was present in 7.4.xx. It appears the problem with the Mac version 7.6.34 is with Sierra. I reinstalled 7.6.34 in El Capitan and the problem doesn't exist there. I haven't tried it in Sierra lately, maybe tonight I'll try it.

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.
26) Message boards : BOINC Manager : Compiling BOINC Manager 7.7 in Ubuntu 14.04.5 Message 79583 Posted 13 Jul 2017 by TBar	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.
27) Message boards : BOINC Manager : Compiling BOINC Manager 7.7 in Ubuntu 14.04.5 Message 79576 Posted 13 Jul 2017 by TBar	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.
28) Message boards : BOINC Manager : Compiling BOINC Manager 7.7 in Ubuntu 14.04.5 Message 79561 Posted 12 Jul 2017 by TBar	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.
29) Message boards : BOINC Manager : Compiling BOINC Manager 7.7 in Ubuntu 14.04.5 Message 79558 Posted 12 Jul 2017 by TBar	Or just get rid of the custom installed pkg-config. 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...

After reinstalling the libwx packages I ran it again.

32) Message boards : BOINC Manager : Compiling BOINC Manager 7.7 in Ubuntu 14.04.5 Message 79546 Posted 12 Jul 2017 by TBar	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! 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?
33) Message boards : BOINC Manager : Compiling BOINC Manager 7.7 in Ubuntu 14.04.5 Message 79536 Posted 11 Jul 2017 by TBar	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: NoticeListCtrl.h:48:25: error: ‘wxWebViewEvent’ has not been declared void OnLinkClicked( wxWebViewEvent& event ); ^ NoticeListCtrl.h:49:26: error: ‘wxWebViewEvent’ has not been declared void OnWebViewError( wxWebViewEvent& event ); ^ NoticeListCtrl.h:59:5: error: ‘wxWebView’ does not name a type wxWebView* m_browser; ^ NoticeListCtrl.cpp:53:72: error: invalid use of non-static member function ‘void CNoticeListCtrl::OnLinkClicked(int&)’ EVT_WEBVIEW_NAVIGATING(ID_LIST_NOTIFICATIONSVIEW, CNoticeListCtrl::OnLinkClicked) ^ NoticeListCtrl.cpp:53:85: error: ‘EVT_WEBVIEW_NAVIGATING’ was not declared in this scope EVT_WEBVIEW_NAVIGATING(ID_LIST_NOTIFICATIONSVIEW, CNoticeListCtrl::OnLinkClicked) ^ NoticeListCtrl.cpp:54:5: error: expected ‘}’ before ‘EVT_WEBVIEW_ERROR’ EVT_WEBVIEW_ERROR(ID_LIST_NOTIFICATIONSVIEW, CNoticeListCtrl::OnWebViewError) ^ NoticeListCtrl.cpp:54:5: error: expected ‘,’ or ‘;’ before ‘EVT_WEBVIEW_ERROR’ In file included from /usr/include/wx-3.0/wx/wx.h:24:0, from stdwx.h:49, from NoticeListCtrl.cpp:22: /usr/include/wx-3.0/wx/event.h:4113:40: error: expected declaration before ‘}’ token wxDECLARE_EVENT_TABLE_TERMINATOR() }; ^ /usr/include/wx-3.0/wx/event.h:4459:56: note: in expansion of macro ‘wxEND_EVENT_TABLE’ #define END_EVENT_TABLE() wxEND_EVENT_TABLE() ^ NoticeListCtrl.cpp:57:1: note: in expansion of macro ‘END_EVENT_TABLE’ END_EVENT_TABLE() 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?
