Building problems on Ubuntu 20.04

[Wsk8]

Hello,
i tried building FC master on 20.04 for the first time, but ran into differnt problems.
First Pyside2 Tools were not found. I found this (already solved) ticket: https://tracker.freecadweb.org/view.php?id=4229
But i still had the exact problem. I found out, the fix is only apllied to Pyside >= 5.14, but my System has 5.12.8. So after changing the cmake file to look for 5.12, the configuration succeded.

Then i tried a multicore build, but it was always failing. With single core it is building.

Can anyone confirm this?

EDIT
After some time i get following error:

Code: Select all

[ 40%] Generating Material_rc.py
Unknown options: generator, compress-algo.
make[2]: *** [src/Mod/Material/CMakeFiles/Material.dir/build.make:90: src/Mod/Material/Material_rc.py] Fehler 1

Which exact version were you trying to compile?

There are various threads discussing the problems with compiling in Ubuntu 20.04, since this system was released in April 2020.

I can't point to one thread exactly, but one of the problems that I remember was that the binary to produce the resource files was renamed in a particular version of PySide, that is, pyside2-rcc was renamed to rcc5 or something like that. So, you had to do some tricks to make it compile, like using a symbolic link to match the name expected by the CMake configuration.

I also remember one solution that consisted in installing and using the tools from PyQt5, as opposed to PySide2, and this would work as well.

Yesterdays master branch.

Yeah, i linked the ticket to this problem. It it theoretically fixed, but only for Pyside 5.14. On 20.04 is still 5.12.x which has the same problem. I solved it by changing the version check.

This has nothing to do with the previous pyside problem. This occurs while compiling (after successful configuration).

Do you have a link?
