Hello,

Could i please get some help? I am doing post 2 and i am at the step at loading Linuxcnc.

sudo apt-get update
cd linuxcnc-dev
cd debian
./configure uspace
cd ..
dpkg-checkbuilddeps<----I am stuck on this step

elroy@elroy-Lenovo-V570 ~/linuxcnc-dev $ dpkg-checkbuilddeps
dpkg-checkbuilddeps: error: Unmet build dependencies: docbook-xsl

Im not sure what this dependency is or how to fulfill it. Do i need Libre office Excel or is it an excel document? I searched in the forums for docbook and found nothing. I read about how to fix dependencies but done know what depenency it is that i need to fix. I erased the file and re-intalled it but to no avail.

If anyone has any insight I would appreciate it.

Good job Elroy! Glad you got it going.

I haven't seen that as a dependency before.

After reading this I thought you had the issue resolved? If not what is the issue at this time? I do not understand your question.

I ran into the same Docbook-xsl problem...
Solved by doing the following..
sudo apt-get install docbook-xsl

I took another whack at this..
But I'm stubborn so I'm still trying to 64bit version..

Everything works fine until: The docbook issue above.. which I got past..

Then I continue into the debuild -uc -us step..
Which encounters an error and fails..

I just realized I need to swap to the other computer to get that pasted in.. hang on..

There's pages and pages of output from the debuild process. I believe only the last bit is relevant so that is all I will include..
dh_testdir
dh_testroot
dh_installchangelogs
dh_installdocs
dh_installexamples
dh_installman
dh_installmime
dh_link
dh_strip
dh_strip: Compatibility levels before 9 are deprecated (level 6 in use)
dh_compress -X.pdf -X.txt -X.hal -X.ini -X.clp -X.var -X.nml -X.tbl -X.xml -Xsample-configs
dh_fixperms -X/linuxcnc_module_helper -X/rtapi_app
dh_pysupport
make: dh_pysupport: Command not found
debian/rules:98: recipe for target 'binary-arch' failed
make: *** [binary-arch] Error 127
dpkg-buildpackage: error: fakeroot debian/rules binary gave error exit status 2
debuild: fatal error at line 1376:
dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -D -us -uc failed

All attempts to crack this problem have resulted in failure.
Googling this error gets nothing..
dh pysupport is not to be found..

Please help, because while I am out of my element in compiling any program, normally my google-fu is strong and I can pull out Some kind of info..

Hey!

Sorry your still having issues with this; Did you ever get
dpkg-checkbuilddeps

to work for you? Seems you still have a missing dependency, that looks like the deb helper command of python support is failing.


NAME
dh_pysupport - use the python-support framework to handle Python
modules



SYNOPSIS
dh_pysupport [debhelper options] [-V X.Y] [-X item [...]] [-n] [module
dirs ...]



DESCRIPTION
dh_pysupport is a debhelper program that will scan your package, detect
public modules in /usr/lib/pythonX.Y/site-packages, and move them to
the shared Python modules location. It will generate appropriate
postinst/prerm scripts to byte-compile modules installed there for all
available python versions.

It will also look for private Python modules and will byte-compile them
with the current Python version. You may have to list the directories
containing private Python modules.

If a file named debian/pyversions exists, it is used to determine the
python versions with which the package can work.

Appropriate dependencies on python-support, python and pythonX.Y are
put in ${python:Depends}. The ${python:Versions} and
${python:Provides} optional substitution variables are made available
as well.


manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/wily/en/man1/dh_pysupport.1.html

try sudo apt get-install debhelper

that is off the top of my head.
