I've recently replaced Win10 by Linux Debian 11.2 on my PC (hence I'm a newbee in Linux). Now, not all programs are available as deb-Files.
I tried to compile source code - here a synthesizer ams-2.2.0 - from a tar.gz files (after unzipping into a separate folder) with steps (as written in the INSTALL.TXT to this source, and obviously usual)
./configure
make
make install
I get a bunch of error messages for missing files, when running ./congigure most resolved by installation of missing packages, but at last it fails with error message:
checking for QTCore Qt5Gui Qt5Widgets >= 5.0... no
configure: error: cannot find Qt5 library >= 5.0
(hope to get all written correctly, because I can't copy from the terminal ... Ctrl-Shift-C doesn't seem to work)
I checked the installation in synaptics and found that Qt-Version is 5.12. So what's wrong here?
I'm afraid to have this error message everytime I try to compile different source codes.
You need to install libqtcore and libqtwidgets with development headers, they are in qtbase5-dev package.
sudo apt install build-essential qtbase5-dev qtchooser
I'm unable to install the Alien::XGBoost library using the default installation of Strawberry Perl on Windows 10. I'm using the 64-bit version of Strawberry Perl.
When installing Alien::XGBoost, I receive an error on line 49 in the Alien/Build/CommandSequence.pm file as shown below.

The author of the library just confirmed it was a bug. His statement is below. I installed the previous version and it worked perfectly.
Thanks for reporting this!!
It's a bug! I forgot to quote the path.
As you can see both md commands have the path double quoted (""), but not the copy command.
I'm working to fix it and also I'm going to get travis and appveyor integrations to avoid this in the future.
This weekend this will be fixed. Meanwhile please install the previous version:

I am currently trying - unsuccessfully to install perl PDL as I would like to automate some of my data analysis and graphics generation.
Unfortunately I seem unable to even install the necessary modules without issue, let alone create a small script to deal with my data files.
I have some rudementary experience with Perl but Nothing fancy and am using Windows 10 x64.
Initially I went for the x64 strawberry perl v5.24 installation, followed by ppm installations of Astro::FITS::Header, Convert::UU, OpenGL and PDL - as instructed here http://pdl.perl.org/?page=install. However, there were issues with the installation of Inline::C and after trying the example listed on page 5 of the PDL_Book_Latest http://sourceforge.net/projects/pdl/files/PDL/2.4.10/PDL-Book-20120205.pdf/download there wasn't any image appearing, nor image file in any location I could think to search. Back to Google and still no luck finding any information on the source of this issue so I decided to go back to square one and use an older version in the hopes that it would be more well documented.
So, uninstallation of strawberry perl through Windows installed programs dialog, deletion of strawberry folder and registry entries containing "strawberry". Then a new installation of perl, with the Padre IDE, v5.14 - maybe some debugging fonctionality will help pinpoint the errors. Started installing the same modules (Astro::FITS::Header, Convert::UU, OpenGL, PGPLOT). Astro and Convert worked fine, but the OpenGL started throwing errors about ExtUtils::F77 which I am apparently missing after a few more hours searching. I go to install this module and it keeps giving errors about 'gfortan' being an unknown command... It was my understanding that the idea of PDL was to avoid fortran and C, and I have found next to no information about this installation problem so far.
So i decided to try an alternative approach. I installed the ppm module from cpan and repeated the initial installation process through the ppm command. This time i get:
"Unknown element 'PROVIDE' found inside SOFTPKG. at C:/Dwimperl/perl/site/lib/PPM.pm line 1462."
So my question is as follows:
Am I missing some critical step in the installation process? Is my system just handing this really badly, and if so is there any sort of possible work around? Is the fact that I tried two different versions liable to create path issues that could be at the root of this problem?
Could anyone provide an alternative and preferably not too complex route to install PDL with a given perl installation on Windows 10?
EDIT 1:
Here is the code for the error I got trying to install Inline::C, an apparent pre-requisite for PDL
code deleted to make space for updates...
EDIT 3:
I reinstalled GnuWin32 in the directory specified by PATH, rather that changing PATH, and the tried the installation again. Inline::C gave the same 'diff' and 'rm' errors. So i ran "cpanm --notest 'package'" to install Inline::C and then PDL, both said they were successful. However, even using '--notest' cpanm could not install OpenGL and PGPLOT.
The final objectif is to be able to produce graphics using the fonctions from PGPLOT: for example
# use PDL;
# use PDL::Graphics::PGPLOT;
# imag(sin(rvals(200,200)+1));
yet this doesn't work of course if PGPLOT can't install.
EDIT 4:
Tried the fix found by #Dr.Avalange at sourceforge https://sourceforge.net/p/pogl/bugs/26/ and noticed that I seem to have multiple copies of this file.
Here
Is this normal...?
EDIT 5:
So i uninstalled perl, deleted any lingering files I could find in %APPDATA%, %USERPROFILE% and C:/DWIM, and then ran ccleaner just in case I missed anything.
I then downloaded Strawberry perl 5.24.1 x64 for Windows and installed it.
After this, I ran 'cpanm Astro::FITS::Header', cpanm 'Convert-UU' and 'cpanm OpenGL' as per http://pdl.perl.org/?page=install. This all worked fine. Then I ran 'cpanm PDL' which installed Inline, Pegex, Win32::Mutex and Module::Compile dependencies. However, if had the same error with Inline::C that you mentioned previously.
I already had GetGnuWin32 installed before so not sure why this isn't working. The Windows 'Path' environment (not PATH - this doesn't exist according to the advaced system dialogue) is noted as
%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsApps;
In this directory I have the folder GetGnuWin32 which should have installed all the packages from the link you provided, unless there is a supplementary step that I missed to install this correctly? So I redownloaded the DiffUtils setup and ran that, installing to \programfiles(x86) (default option). I then reran 'cpanm PDL'.
I still get the same 'diff' error message. So is DiffUtils, not installing properly? (I did close and re-open the commandline between tries and after the installation)
EDIT 6:
So after installing PDL and PGPLOT with --notest I tried to run the following test and it failed. See below

There was already a directory problem but I managed to point it in th right direction I had thought. Also tried installing the PLplot 'cpanm' said the installation was successful but there is no .pm file, only a .pd in another directory and so the use PDL::Graphics::PLplot fails as there is no .pm file to find.
EDIT: 7
So retrying ppm install http://www.sisyphusion.tk/ppm/PGPLOT.ppd seemed to work this time as the links int he explanation you provided are no longer in use
http://www.kalinabears.com.au/w32perl/pgplot-5.2.2-mingw32.tar.bz2
http://jrfonseca.home.dyndns.org/projects/gnu-win32/software/ported/patches/pgplot-5.2.2-mingw32.diff.gz
And while this seemed to work, there are no traces of the files that were listed as necessary for the installation, unless they were just for this specific method?
pgplot/bin/cpgplot.dll
pgplot/bin/pgplot.dll
pgplot/bin/grfont.dat
pgplot/include/cpgplot.h
pgplot/lib/cpgplot.a

finally, trying the example again gives the following; no errors, but no image either...

After translating from French I can see that you don't have diff in your system. Either install diff (part of gnu32: http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/) or just skip the tests. See also:
https://github.com/ingydotnet/inline-c-pm/issues/60
With Strawberry 5.24.1 simply type the following from the command prompt:
cpanm --notest PDL
or if you want to watch everything that's going on:
cpanm -v --notest PDL
This will take some time to run.
When I install Wordnet::Similarity on mac, the following error occur:

My attempt was to enter to the downloaded package directory from terminal and type:

make test
sudo make install
I made sure to have installed all prerequisite http://search.cpan.org/dist/WordNet-Similarity/doc/install.pod#Prerequisites. I suspect that this may be due to mac processor version with Perl interface. Any suggestion on how to fix this?
Install libdigest-sha-perl in Ubuntu 14.04 has solved this issue.

This has been driving me crazy for 2 days.
I have been trying to install psycopg2 using easy_install and no matter what I try (i.e using gcc-4.0 instead of the snow leopard default one) I always get the same error:
error: Setup script exited with error: command '/usr/bin/gcc-4.0' failed with exit status 1
Please see: http://dpaste.com/hold/228252/
I have googled that error so many times and nothing I have found seem to help.
Looks like you're missing a dependency, the development files for libpq. The relevant log part is here:
In file included from psycopg/psycopgmodule.c:32In file included from psycopg/psycopgmodule.c:32:
./psycopg/psycopg.h:31:22: error: libpq-fe.h: No such file or directory
Try installing libpq development files and then rerun easy_install. You may hit another missing dependency; pay attention to the first error that GCC spits out.
Link http://dpaste.com/hold/228252/ seems to be dead, this is how I solved this problem (Mac OS X 10.6, virtualenv).
If pip fails with this message, just take a look to build folder in your virtual environment. You should edit setup.cfg file there, particularly include_dirs and library_dirs. In first one set your include folders, my option was:
include_dirs=/opt/local/include/postgresql84:/opt/local/include/postgresql84/server
and most likely you will need to set library_dirs to correct location as well:
library_dirs=/opt/local/lib/postgresql84.
probably you should install postgresql-devel first
yum -y install postgresql-devel
