Problem installing ocatave 4.3-d0221e3675ef #67

AtheistApe · 2018-06-02T20:14:07Z

I've followed the instructions at:
http://www.schoeps.org/home/2018/01/how-to-compile-gnu-octave-with-openblas-on-macos/

to install octave but have run into problems. I think the part below is the relevant section; It seems to have something to do with "QButtonGroup".

Update:

I was able to complete the install by excluding the '--with-qt' parameter; The command line that compiled was:

brew install dpo/openblas/octave --devel --with-java

schoeps · 2018-06-02T22:05:32Z

Yes, brew install dpo/openblas/octave --devel --with-java should work. It does not compile the graphical user interface and thus work also without qt (and its buttons). Do you want the gui or not?

AtheistApe · 2018-06-02T23:18:50Z

Yes, I would like the gui. I've tried brew reinstalling qt and pyqt and tried setting the various paths and environment variables as suggested below without success:

echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/opt/qt/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.zshrc

For compilers to find this software you may need to set:
LDFLAGS: -L/usr/local/opt/qt/lib
CPPFLAGS: -I/usr/local/opt/qt/include
For pkg-config to find this software you may need to set:
PKG_CONFIG_PATH: /usr/local/opt/qt/lib/pkgconfig

schoeps · 2018-06-03T14:19:12Z

I can confirm this issue. Octave seems to have a problem with the new qt 5.11. I will file a bug report at savannah. Sorry, that might need some time until it gets fixed. I cannot help here, I am no qt-guru whatsoever.

schoeps · 2018-06-03T14:27:30Z

Ok, let's try this: first get the most recent formula (this overwrites the previous one, nothing which can't be undone):
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/schoeps/homebrew-openblas/master/octave.rb -o /usr/local/Homebrew/Library/Taps/dpo/homebrew-openblas/octave.rb

Then try to compile
brew install octave --with-qt

I am currently compiling; seems to work.

AtheistApe · 2018-06-03T16:51:45Z

Many thanks for your help. While compiling I got a warning message “Some tests failed” but it appears to run fine when I execute it with the —force-gui option. Thanks again, Gary

I have the exact same error as legout. I'm running High Sierra 10.13.6 with the latest Xcode and command line tools.

I used
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/schoeps/homebrew-openblas/master/octave.rb -o /usr/local/Homebrew/Library/Taps/dpo/homebrew-openblas/octave.rb
followed by
brew install octave --with-qt --with-java

any ideas @schoeps? or @legout did you find a solution? Thanks!

schoeps · 2018-07-22T19:48:37Z

@orqldon @legout I just tried to reproduce the failure but I can't. It just works for me. Can you upload your log files? (see https://docs.brew.sh/Troubleshooting and in particular: brew gist-logs octave)

legout · 2018-07-23T18:11:14Z

@schoeps The logs are here:
https://gist.github.com/legout/3bce108d4f3539e2774ea4ea1aeefa40

schoeps · 2018-07-24T07:02:45Z

@legout Strangely there is no output from configure or make. If this does not work, can you try this:

# get newest formula
brew update
brew upgrade
# make sure that dependencies are compiled from dpo's repository
brew reinstall openblas
brew reinstall dpo/homebrew-openblas/arpack
brew reinstall dpo/homebrew-openblas/qrupdate
brew reinstall dpo/homebrew-openblas/suite-sparse
brew reinstall dpo/homebrew-openblas/sundials27
#compile octave
brew install dpo/homebrew-openblas/octave --verbose --with-qt --with-java

and copy the output here?

legout · 2018-07-24T21:41:45Z

@schoeps
Now i was able to install octave using the guidance above. Thanks!

jbenzakoun · 2018-09-10T09:30:32Z

@schoeps i had the exact same problem when installing octave with qt 5.11
I managed to find a solution (see https://bugs.gentoo.org/655844). Just add the following include line to libgui/src/settings-dialog.cc
#include <QButtonGroup>

schoeps · 2018-09-10T09:50:20Z

@jbenzakoun yes, thanks! It's bug #53978 and it's also fixed in the pull request https://github.com/dpo/homebrew-openblas/pull/61/files
