here's the config.log from a GTK3.22 request.

here's the config.log from a GTK3.22 request.

No package 'gtk+-3.0' found
configure error: specified client 'gtk3.22' not configurable (GTK+-3.0 libraries not found)

On Debian System I'd say you're missing "libgtk-3-dev"

The logs also show that sdl2 is not found. Means that your build lacks sound support (sdl2 & sdl2-mixer needed for that). Didn't check if any other non-mandatory features are going to be missing the same way.

The INSTALL document should give you some idea of the needed dependencies. So should the list of packages to install in a ubuntu system, by the very script you are using.

added libgtk-3-dev-3.24.24-4+rpt12+deb11u3 (64bit), and I was able to compile

had not found either the readme or the install documents. Sorry about that.

And thanks

New version for ubuntu-24.04 (noble). Get it from https://github.com/freeciv/freeciv-envi ... ildscripts

I've tested building with:

Code: Select all

./freeciv-ubuntu24.04.sh 3.1.3 gtk3.22

Code: Select all

./freeciv-ubuntu24.04.sh 3.1.3 qt

Code: Select all

./freeciv-ubuntu24.04.sh 3.1.3 sdl2

and all worked.

Thanks for the 24.04!

As I am a total newbie to Linux Ubuntu, could someone please tell me, whether I need some extra software to let the script run (is it called "Repositories"?)? I am on a freshly installed Ubuntu with all third party installs. But I have not yet installed other stuff.

I am so very lost. Sorry!

There's hardly any requirements for running the script, so you shouldn't need to install anything prior to running it. First thing it does when it runs is installing everything it needs for building freeciv.
Just download the script (e.g. to your home directory), open a terminal/console, make the script executable with "chmod +x freeciv-ubuntu24.04.sh", and run it with the parameters you want (e.g. "./freeciv-ubuntu24.04.sh 3.1.3 gtk3.22")

In the end it tells where the freeciv executables have been made available.

Thank you, I will try that! (and report)

[freeeerf]

I entered

./freeciv-ubuntu24.04.sh 3.1.3 gtk3.22

in the terminal and it did some stuff, but at the end it says "Configure failed".

I think, that something was not successful.

Code: Select all

admin@zadmin-Standard-PC-Q35-ICH9-2009:~$ chmod +x freeciv-ubuntu24.04.sh
zadmin@zadmin-Standard-PC-Q35-ICH9-2009:~$ ./freeciv-ubuntu24.04.sh 3.1.3 gtk3.22

Thanks for reporting. The script was not installing libsqlite3-dev as a dependency, though it's needed. (apparently I've always had that already installed when I've been testing the script). I've updated both the ubuntu-24.04 and ubuntu-22.04 scripts.

[freeeerf]

It worked! Cool! Now I can play it again, finally! (...I just have to get the sound going. Maybe that's due to the Virtual Machine...)

Thanks a lot!

I would like to donate something to the FC project. How can I do that?
