Re: Compiling CalculiX ccx on fedora and ubuntu
It's unfortunately probably too late, the soft freeze begins Feb 12th. Gonna try to focus on gmsh and openfoam.
Re: Compiling CalculiX ccx on fedora and ubuntu
I'd really be interested in compiling ccx for debian buster. Have done this years ago on Jessie, but can't remember how I did that. It should be possible to adapt the ubuntu script for Buster ?!?
Re: Compiling CalculiX ccx on fedora and ubuntu
It might "just work". Are there any iso images of debian buster? I found only Stretch 9.7 so far.
Edit: I think I got something...

Re: Compiling CalculiX ccx on fedora and ubuntu
The script works without any problems.
Re: Compiling CalculiX ccx on fedora, ubuntu and debian
The script doesn't work on ubuntu 16.04.5 LTS due to some linking problems. If someone needs it please post here - there is a manual workaround.
Re: Compiling CalculiX ccx on fedora, ubuntu and debian
I have just used the script to install ccx. Thanks that is just a few tweeks but saves tonnes of messing around.
It's a shame these old and stable libs are not in Fedora distro packages.
What is the score on gmsh ? Fedora gives me 3.0.6 with is at least two years old, not gmsh 4. This is an active project and it seems there has been a lot of changes ( improvements ).
Is v3 good enough or is it worth building ( yetanother ) from source.

Re: Compiling CalculiX ccx on fedora, ubuntu and debian
Can you share or describe the tweaks please?
I don't know what's with gmesh, but on my fedora 30:
Code: Select all
$ rpm -qi gmsh
Name : gmsh
Version : 4.1.5
Release : 2.fc30
Architecture: x86_64
[..]
Re: Compiling CalculiX ccx on fedora, ubuntu and debian
I don't have anything to share , I was commenting on your script which fixes a couple of things by applying patches etc. This would be quite complicated to describe and sort out by hand. Your script saves a lot of fiddling around.
I'm still on Fed29. I was wondering whether F30 had the newer version. Looks like a good time to update. thanks for the info.
Good to find someone else using FreeCAD on Fedora, what graphics driver are you using. I seem to have a lot of problems with nouveau Nvidia driver.
