Software request for Debian+Netbsd: libpcre (and tintin++?)

Postby papa » Wed May 13, 2015 2:11 am

On a separate but related quest, I'm trying to build the MUD client tintin++ on Debian and ran into a dependency on libpcre. Could you install that, too, please?

(I've also tried setting up libpcre in my own account, but the tintin++ configure program can't find my personally-installed pcre.h.)

Come to think of it, tintin++ is something other Debian users might use. I would have no objections if you install it for the whole Debian server, too. :wink:

UPDATE: The configure error indicates that I need the development version of libpcre, which I think means libpcre3-dev. Also, while you've got your magic install wand out, could you install the same libpcre development package on Netbsd, too?

Hi,

Debian: installed libpcre3-dev libpcrecpp0
NetBSD: has already pcre-8.33

I can now build TINTIN++ on Debian. Thanks.

On Netbsd, running TINTIN++ configure script still stops on error:
Code: Select all
configure: error: pcre header file not found, is the development part present


However, since I have it running on Debian there's no need to build on Netbsd at present, so feel free to not pursue this any further.

I think I would like to build TINTIN++ on Netbsd after all.

Can you install the PCRE development package?

Sure, I will try to do that... but it may take few days considering my this week's workload.
I am sorry :(
Regards,

It's no rush. Whenever you've got the time.

I'll be in Dalian, China for the rest of the week, anyway.
