Cinelerra on Sarge: E: Broken package

juanjavier_xxx · 06-13-2005, 05:14 PM

Step 1: Tweak /etc/apt/sources.list (I have got an Athlon 1600 XP+):

Code:

deb http://www.kiberpipa.org/~minmax/cin...ilds/athlonxp/ ./
deb-src http://www.kiberpipa.org/~minmax/cinelerra/builds/sid/ ./
deb ftp://ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat/ unstable main

Read all the apt-get documentation

Code:

http://www.debian.org

relating apt-get source cinelerra (check http://cvs.cinelerra.org/packages.html#apt-x86), and perform an

Code:

apt-get update

Up until here everything correct.

Later on I performe

Code:

apt-get -b source cinelerra

and it returns

Code:

sh:line 1: dpkg-source: command not found
Unpacking command failed 'dpkg-source -x hvirtual_1.2.2-3cvx20050612.dsc'
E: Child Process Failed
debian:/#

My kernel is 2.6.8, and if I download something like

Code:

 cinelerra_1.2.2-3cvs20050612_i386.deb

from

Code:

http://www.kiberpipa.org/~minmax/cinelerra/builds/athlonxp/

then massive library dependencies errors arise: liblame0, libopenexr2, libsndfilehv and many others.....)

On the other side I straightly downloaded the source file cinelerra-1.2.2-src.tar.bz2.

Trouble is that I do not find a PLAIN HOW-TO just to expand and compile all the stuff....which is the next step I am just thinking about.....

Any other idea? How should I proceed?

I don't know if this applies, but for Gentoo, the cinelera packages are not maintained and impossible to install using emerge.

Maybe debians are too. Just an idea.

"Compiling Programs from Source"

Well, Craigevil, I read the "Compiling Programs from Source" stuff

, but did not
get help enough out of it

Code:

tar zxf cinelerra.tar.gz

It outputs

Code:

implausibly old time stamp 1970-01-01

on every package it expands.

But it expands at all. It creates a folder called 'cinelerra'. There is a documentation file called

Code:

README.BUILD

where it tells you need Automake 1.7 and Autoconf 2.57 just to build succesfully.

Then it suggests

Code:

autoreconf -i

which returns

Code:

bash: autoreconf: command not found

What are the automake and autoreconf things? I performed

Code:

apt-get update

and

Code:

apt-get install autoreconf

and it outputs

Code:

E: Couldn't find package autoreconf

On the other hand I found an autogen.sh script in the folder created upon decompressing the tarball.

Code:

sh autogen.sh

returns

Code:

.
AUTOMAKE=automake
ACLOCAL=aclocal
AUTOCONF=autoconf
AUTOHEADER=autoheader
Now building the ./configure script...
checking for automake version... unknown
checking for aclocal version... unknown
Running aclocal -I m4 
autogen.sh: line 1: automake: command not found
autogen.sh: line 1: aclocal: command not found
autogen.sh: line 88: aclocal: command not found
autogen.sh: line 91: libtoolize: command not found
autogen.sh: line 106: libtoolize: command not found

Reading the 'compiling from source' stuff made it seem easy...but going for the real thing seems a little complicated....

Any suggestion just to make cinelerra up and running?

Debian Sarge.

You do realize this program is very hardware intensive:
Now Cinelerra is by no means a lightweight program. You'll need something slightly less sexy than a handheld organizer to run it most effectively.
Dual 2.4Ghz Opteron
4GB RAM.
200 GB storage for movie files.
Gigabit ethernet

RECOMMENDED RENDERFARM NODE:

Single 2.4Ghz Athlon
512MB RAM
Flash hard drive
100MB ethernet

Try getting the source code from http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/h....2-src.tar.bz2 and compiling from source.

---Yes, I know, I read carefully the specs...

----I finally did so, and I bunzipped2 succesfully. Later on, when changing to the expanded sources folder and performing

Code:

./configure

I get an error claiming that nasm was needed. So

Code:

apt-get update

Code:

apt-get install nasm

Everything fine. Again

Code:

./configure

and this time

Code:

GCC 3.2.2 or greater is required. Download it from gcc.gnu.org

Well, I went there and clicked in the current release link -which is GCC 4.0.0. and then in the GNU mirror sites, and the bottom of the page.
So what should I do now? Do I have to download gcc-4.0.0.tar.bz2....and then what???

Is there any difference between GCC and gcc (upper case-lower case)???

Cos I performed

Code:

apt-get install gcc

and then

Code:

dpkg -p gcc

and shows

Code:

Package: gcc
Priority: standard
Section: devel
Installed-Size: 28
Maintainer: Debian GCC maintainers <debian-gcc@lists.debian.org>
Architecture: i386
Source: gcc-defaults (1.21)
Version: 4:3.3.5-3
Provides: c-compiler
Depends: cpp (>= 4:3.3.5-3), gcc-3.3 (>= 1:3.3.5-1), cpp-3.3 (>= 1:3.3.5-1)
Recommends: libc-dev
Suggests: make, manpages-dev, autoconf, automake, libtool, flex, bison, gdb, gcc-doc
Conflicts: gcc-doc (<< 1:2.95.3)
Size: 4906
Description: The GNU C compiler
 This is the GNU C compiler, a fairly portable optimizing compiler for C.
 .
 This is a dependency package providing the default GNU C compiler.

Is Version: 4:3.3.5-3 (as stated thru dpkg -p) greater than GCC 3.2.2 -as ./configure claims-??

And I wonder....: Is there an easier way to apt-get install a GCC version greater than that required?
Is 'GCC' the same as 'gcc'?

If there is no way....

IS THERE a way to get cinelerra up and running under sarge on an ATHLON XP+???

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance...

Yes, there is a way; sorry for being late.....

Change your sources.list and make it point to unstable.

Mandatory:

Code:

apt-get update

Later on go to the marillat place that you are told in the cinelerra pages

http://cvs.cinelerra.org/packages.html#apt-x86

and check the line that you should add to the sources.list.

The last step is as simple as

Code:

apt-get install cinelerra

Enjoy....!!!
