I'm trying to work on a gnome project (Aisleriot). It requires meson, so I installed it using
sudo apt install meson
That installed version 0.61.2. Unfortunately, the project requires version >= 0.62.0. Next, I ran the following command:
sudo apt-get install python3 python3-pip python3-setuptools python3-wheel ninja-build
Now meson is at version 0.64.0. Unfortunately, when I run Builder
flatpak run org.gnome.Builder
and load my project, it still uses meson version 0.61.2. Why is it using this earlier version and how do I tell Builder to use the system version instead?
There is a similar question from 4 years ago, but it talks about a build settings panel, which I couldn't find. Does the build settings panel still exist and how do I display it?

I am trying to get my head around package managers. I recently installed llvm in macOS using

I installed python3.8 using pyenv and CMake latest release from https://cmake.org/download/. Brew displayed this message after the installation:
==> Dependencies
Build: cmake ✘, python#3.8 ✘
Required: libffi ✔
I have 2 questions:
Should I be concerned that I did not install CMake nor python3.8 using brew? I would like to know before replacing my previous CMake and python3.8 installations with those offered by brew.
Is there a way to use pakages/software installed with brew and without it in the same project and not make everything a mess? If there is, how can I learn to do it?
I am a physics major so my knowledge in these topics is not as good as I would like to.
Thanks for the help!
I tried to install mcsema on my debian linux but I am stopped by error
Cmake 3.1 or higher is required. You are running 3.0.2. On debian this is the only version could be installed by apt-get install. Building CMake from sources, I get several errors as well. Does anyone know how to install the latest version of Cmake on Debian 8?
Download latests cmake release and follow the README.rst instructions:
UNIX/Mac OSX/MinGW/MSYS/Cygwin ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
You need to have a compiler and a make installed. Run the
bootstrap script you find in the source directory of CMake. You
can use the --help option to see the supported options. You may
use the --prefix=<install_prefix> option to specify a custom
installation directory for CMake. You can run the bootstrap script
from within the CMake source directory or any other build directory of
your choice. Once this has finished successfully, run make and
make install. In summary::
$ ./bootstrap && make && make install
I installed MonoDevelop using following commands:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ermshiperete/monodevelop
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install monodevelop-current
because I wanted latest version.
sudo apt-get install monodevelop
results in installing 4.x version which I wasn't interested in.
Now I can launch application via terminal using:
/opt/monodevelop/bin/monodevelop-launcher.sh
but "monodevelop" command results in following information:
The program 'monodevelop' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing:
sudo apt-get install monodevelop
and creating monodevelop.desktop file doesn't result in having program icon in launcher. Any ideas what I should do to be able to run MonoDevelop using "monodevelop" command?
I installed MonoDevelop using following commands:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ermshiperete/monodevelop
Do you realize that when adding a repository, you're trusting this user (what he decides to package in his repository), and that the version you get is the one that he himself alone decided to package?
I recommend you to add the repository of the official developers/packagers instead. Follow the instructions here (but uninstall any old packages first).
I am using Ubuntu 14.04. I'm trying to install a program which requires cmake. When I run cmake src/ I get:
qmake: could not exec '/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt4/bin/qmake': No such file or directory
What am I doing wrong?
Does the trick:
sudo apt-get install qt4-qmake
You do not need to install half a gigabyte of qt sdk!
I read on another post that the problem has something to do with CMake not being able to find Qt4 qmake.
However in my case, it was simply a matter of not having qt4-qmake. This solved it (but weighs a heavy 440MB):
sudo apt-get install qt-sdk
For newer versions of Ubuntu, if you have only installed version 5 of the Qt Framework, you may get this error. If you want to use Qt version 5 by default, then you should run the following command to fix the error:
sudo apt install qt5-default
You need the qt dependences:
sudo apt-get install qt4-qmake libqt4-dev
as it says in docs: https://github.com/thoughtbot/capybara-webkit/wiki/Installing-Qt-and-compiling-capybara-webkit#debian--ubuntu
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install qt5-default libqt5webkit5-dev gstreamer1.0-plugins-base gstreamer1.0-tools gstreamer1.0-x
works for me in Ubuntu 18.04
You can use QtCreator to compile the cmake project too. This is only advantageous over the accepted answer if you already have QtCreator installed, I notice you are using a qmake project so this might be likely.
The main advantage of this is that qt creator will be configured to use the qmake tool without the need to install the command line configured version of qmake.
Incidentally, I get this error if I try to run the qmake executable bundled with QtCreator on the command line.
I build my C# project on Travis-CI like this:
# .travis.yml
before_install:
- sudo apt-get update -qq
- sudo apt-get install -qq mono-devel gtk-sharp2
install:
- xbuild Source/Pash.sln
Travis uses Precise (Ubuntu 12.04 LTS) which seems like a good choice for them, but it includes Mono 12.10. My C# project hits a bug in Mono 2.10. The bug appears to be fixed in Mono 2.11+.
I read that Ubuntu is slow to pick up new builds of Mono because so much depends on it, and it can break so much. That's fine, but for Travis dependencies aren't really a problem - the machine goes away at the end of the build!
I have considered
compiling a new Mono in .travis.yml but I don't want to put that much burden on the Travis servers.
Building a MCS (Mono C# compiler) with just this fix.
Downloading and installing a newer Mono from somewhere (where?)
Checking a recent Mono in to my GIT repo.
Suggestions?
If you're going to use something higher than what standard distro packages provide, I recommend you to go all the way and not use unstable 2.11.x series, but official/beta 3.x ones.
So, grab yourself some preview Debian/Ubuntu 3.0.6 packages from this PPA:
http://www.meebey.net/posts/mono_3.0_preview_debian_ubuntu_packages/
The best way I've found to get a full up to date mono environment is to use an OS X travis profile
language: objective-c
