No linuxCNC widgets with Wheezy-iso 2.6.0~pre5

Hello,

I have just made (yesterday) a fresh install of the Wheezy-iso 2.6.0~pre5 (new RTAI) found here:
www.linuxcnc.org/binary.hybrid.iso

Thank you very much all the team, great job!

I have also made a Glade install (3.12.1), but Glade don’t find the LinuxCNC-specific widgets.

What can I do ?

Hi

I think you will find that glade is just broken as far as gladevcp goes once you get to version 3.12

You will have to see if you can downgrade to 3.8 and get all the necessary libraries.
see this bug report
sourceforge.net/p/emc/bugs/352/

Because glade is reliant on gtk, which seems to have no future, a lot of effort is going into a Qt based interface over on the MachineKit fork
but it is not finished yet

regards

Hi,

Thank you very much.

I have installed Glade3.6.7 from squeeze.
All the linuxcnc widgets are now in the left panel.


1) remove first Glade 3.12.1:
sudo apt-get remove glade
sudo apt-get autoremove

2) add squeeze sources in /etc/apt/sources.list and update with:
sudo apt-get update

3) verify glade versions candidate:
sudo apt-cache policy glade
->
glade:

500 ftp.fr.debian.org/debian/ squeeze/main i386 Packages

4) install glade3.6.7 with dependencies:
sudo apt-get install glade=3.6.7-1+b1


5) verify wich glade is now installed:
glade --version
->
glade3 3.6.7
