Debian Compiling Errors - Driving me nuts

Added by steve parry over 9 years ago

Hey all,

Not sure what I should ignore and what I shouldnt any more with the latest builds.

When I run ./configure I was getting the following errors

checking for cc libiconv ...                      fail
checking for pkg liburiparser  ...                fail
checking for ffmpeg libraries ...                 fail
checking for pkg libavcodec >=55.34.1 ...         fail (detected 53.35.0)

To fix the libiconv I used

wget http://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/libiconv/libiconv-1.14.tar.gz
tar -xvzf libiconv-1.14.tar.gz
cd libiconv-1.14
./configure
make
make install

ffparser I used

apt-get install liburiparser-dev

I tried to fix ffmpeg but it still failed using this command

apt-get install ffmpeg

libavcodec I havent tried fixing

Question 1: Am I right in thinking I Can just skip ffmpeg and libavcodec by using the following command to build a internal set of tools?

AUTOBUILD_CONFIGURE_EXTRA=--enable-libffmpeg_static ./Autobuild.sh -t precise-amd64

Question 2:

When I call the above autobuild command I get this error.

        dpkg-shlibdeps -Tdebian/tvheadend.substvars debian/tvheadend/usr/bin/tvheadend
dpkg-shlibdeps: error: no dependency information found for /usr/local/lib/libiconv.so.2 (used by debian/tvheadend/usr/bin/tvheadend)
dh_shlibdeps: dpkg-shlibdeps -Tdebian/tvheadend.substvars debian/tvheadend/usr/bin/tvheadend returned exit code 2
make: *** [binary] Error 2
dpkg-buildpackage: error: debian/rules binary gave error exit status 2

What am I missing?

I use old fashioned way
in tvheadend directory

./configure --enable-libffmpeg_static
make
sudo make install

first time run you need to run tvheadend --noacl (to set up log in access)
then quit tvheadned (killall -SIGHUP tvheadend) and restart tvheadend

For your libiconv errors, see here: https://tvheadend.org/boards/5/topics/12300?r=12611. Looks like it's a platform compatibility issue.

For the build, I wouldn't recommend make install - stick to the debs using Autobuild, it's cleaner and easier to back out/upgrade. The AUTOBUILD... line you give will work fine, though I don't know if the -t parameter is unnecessary on a Debian system (but, equally, I don't think it makes any real difference anyway beyond specifying the 64-bit build). On completion, you'll get two debs to install through dpkg -i: one if the ordinary package, and the other is the debug symbols that are needed should you get a crash (they help translate from memory addresses back to line numnbers in the source code).

Hey guys,

thanks for the advice

Trevor.
How do you start tvheadend on boot up as the upstart script seems to be missing. something i guess the debian package setup before?

Prof Yaffle: The autobuild throws the error (see question 2 in my first post)

The libiconv error happens in unbuntu 14.04 LTS and Debian Wheezy

RE: Debian Compiling Errors - Driving me nuts - Added by saen acro over 9 years ago

is there a solution with libiconv on Ubuntu 14.04

dpkg-shlibdeps /usr/lib/libiconv.so.2
dpkg-shlibdeps: warning: binaries to analyze should already be installed in their package's directory

I cant understand how to fix that
I just read how in new versions this library is integrated in other one
