Building on Linux [skipping incompatible ../../lib/ges/linux32/libpython3.so ]

[AgentAgrimar]

This is probably a bad place to ask this, but seeing as people are successfully doing it.

As the above title is sort of saying, how do you build on Linux?

I've been using Ubuntu 15.10, and i've been trying day in-day out to compile any SSDK13 mod (Including one of my own) to compile for Linux, I've tried following tutorials on the Valve Developer sites, and I could never seem to get it to work...

I end up getting a bunch of errors of files/directory's not being found

(EX. fatal error: sys/cdefs.h: No such file or directory In file included from /usr/include/math.h:26:0, and shortly after **make: * [all] Error 2)

Does anybody have any possible tutorials, that could better explain?

[AgentAgrimar]

I have fixed the above issue, making one last Google helped

but now i have things like

src/tier1/checksum_sha1.cpp:195:29: warning: ignoring return value of ‘size_t fread(void_, size_t, size_t, FILE_)’, declared with attribute warn_unused_result [-Wunused-result]
fread(uData, 1, MAX_FILE_READ_BUFFER, fIn);

src/mathlib/sse.cpp:822:3: warning: #warning "_SSE2_SinCos NOT implemented!" [-Wcpp]
#warning "_SSE2_SinCos NOT implemented!"
^

src/mathlib/sse.cpp:342:115: error: narrowing conversion of ‘2147483648u’ from ‘unsigned int’ to ‘int’ inside { } [-Wnarrowing]

The first two items are warnings, the error, however, is new to me.

[AgentAgrimar]

And now I get this on Server

**make: * No rule to make target '../../lib/ges/linux32/libpython3.so', needed by 'obj_server_ges_linux32/release/server.so'. Stop.

even though it's there and compiled.

[AgentAgrimar]

I'm so close! But now I get this...

@droidmonkey

[droidmonkey]

Have you been using the "runmake.sh" script?

[AgentAgrimar]

Both produce the same output.

@droidmonkey

[droidmonkey]

I think the Python library got built as 32 bit when the rest of the mod was built as 64 bit. Notice that the amd64 steam runtime is being used. It should be the 32 bit steam runtime.

[AgentAgrimar]

Where would I go to force it 32-bit?

@droidmonkey

[droidmonkey]

You do that when you establish the steam runtime, you setup the runtime to point to the 32-bit libraries.

[ardmn]

@AgentAgrimar Can you explain how did you fix it , please ?

[droidmonkey]

Go to your steam runtime SDK in a terminal window and type: ./setup.sh --target=i386

Then make sure you have an ENV variable setup: STEAM_RUNTIME_TARGET_ARCH=i386

Then go to ges-code directory and start the build: ./runmake.sh

You should clean out the python build before you do that.

Has anyone been able to build this on Linux successfully yet? If we can get a working build we can throw up a AUR package -- ges-git and that I'm sure will attract some attention and dev eyes on the project.

[samrocketman]

Why isn't "how to build" in the README?

[droidmonkey]

The build process has moved to cmake.

[samrocketman]

The build process has moved to cmake.

Is this in response to my question? I think it would vastly improve support overhead if instructions on how to build would be in the README.

[droidmonkey]

I am not disagreeing with you, but I wanted to clarify that this thread no longer applies as a solution. When I get a chance I'll write up a quick cmake process and pre-requisites in the readme.

[ElectricPrism]

@droidmonkey - that would be awesome, I would love to try to build on Arch, second choice would be Debian (Which is SteamOS/Ubuntu, etc...)

[droidmonkey]

I added instructions to the readme: https://github.com/goldeneye-source/ges-code#how-to-build

[ChildishGiant]

Does this mean the client can be run natively on linux or is this more for the server side stuff?
