I have compiled gstreamer from sources on debian (raspberry pi) - version 1.10.2, but it still reports the old version and does not allow me to compile plugins -
gst-launch-1.0 --version
gst-launch-1.0 version 1.10.2
GStreamer 1.4.4

Was it put into the wrong place?
The previous version (probably comes with OS) might be installed somewhere different than that you install. Such as /usr/bin (and /usr/lib for libraries) rather than /usr/local/bin (and /usr/local/lib). You might want to locate and remove the older versions.

I need to use gcc-arm-linux-gnueabi version 6.5, along with a version of libc that came out around the same period (I believe is libc-2.26). My host system is Ubuntu 18.04.
If I go with just a simple
sudo apt-get install gcc-arm-linux-gnueabi g++-arm-linux-gnueabi binutils-arm-linux-gnueabi
I'll get v7 for the gcc cross compiler and v2.30 for binutills, which does not work for me, since I'll end up with errors similar to the one described here.
If I try to download the deb packages, I get unmet dependencies.
I have also tried to force apt-get to install specific versions, using something like described here but I get error messages that the version I'm looking for cannot be found.
Is there a way to force ubuntu to install specific (older) version of gcc, libc, etc.?
I know that gcc v 6 is obsolete, but I cannot do otherwise.
You could give a try to the Linaro release of gcc 6.5, available here, which comes with glibc version 2.23.
I am using Bellhop ray tracing algorithm for MacOS. I have downloaded the source code for MacOS without the binaries.
I want to change my gfortran version from 9.2.0 to 8.3.0.
I installed it using homebrew. I have version 9.2.0 installed. I have it installed at /usr/bin/
I cannot seem to find any commands online to change the version.
gfortran -dumpversion
This gave me my version number but I cannot seem to find a command to get a different version.
I am working on macOS (Mojave V 10.14.6). I installed it using homebrew in /usr/local/bin/gfortran. I have version 9.2.0 installed.
type gfortran
Gives me the output:
/usr/local/bin/gfortran
Update: I believe I have 8.3.0 now downloaded by erasing 9.2.0 and downloading gfortran-8. I needed to completely remove it from my system before downloading a different version.
I'm trying to build a binary from source code which has a dependency on the package" NASM 2.12.02 or later. However, I have an earlier version already installed on my Mac via Xcode:
/usr/local/bin/nasm -v
NASM version 0.98.40 (Apple Computer, Inc. build 11) compiled on May 1 2018
So to (attempt to) rectify this, I used Homebrew to install a much newer version of the package
brew info nasm
nasm: stable 2.13.03 (bottled), HEAD
However, now my PATH is only pointed to the old NASM executable, while the new tool seems to be sitting in Homebrew's Cellar (ie. /usr/local/Cellar/nasm/2.13.03).
Is there a nice way of "switching" between these versions so that the system PATH views only the newer version and disregards the older one? So far I've thought of rm -rf-ing the old version and exporting the new version to my PATH, but that seems very destructive.
Also, I have run the command: brew doctor and have resolved all linker errors, but that has not seemed to help.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
To fix this, I used the following command:
export PATH=/usr/local/Cellar/nasm/2.13.03/bin:$PATH
This modifies the PATH variable to point to the /usr/local/Cellar/nasm/2.13.03/bin directory and find the nasm executable there before looking in /usr/local/bin.
I'm updating my version of Qt for development purposes on my mac.
So I downloaded and installed the opens-source .dmg from the Qt website (https://www.qt.io/).
During installation, I specifically checked the box to install version 5.0.2.
But afterwards, when running qmake -v, it still says the version is 4.8.7.
Make version 2.01a
Using Qt version 4.8.7 in /Users/my_dir/anaconda/lib
(Note: it also points to /lib directory in /anaconda, even though I'm setting this up for Rails purposes. Not sure if this has any impact.)
Can anyone advise how I can change the version that is being pointed to?
Below is what worked for me, incase anyone else has this issue.
Check which version of qmake is being used. which qmake.
Remove anaconda from mac $PATH.
Force homebrew to symlink binaries. brew link --force qt55.
Re-check which version of qmake is being used. which qmake.
When you check the version of qmake the second time, it should point to the new version of qmake that you have installed.
Note: You will have to redo this for every terminal session where you want to use the newer version of qmake.
I was trying to get wxHaskell installed on my mac (Osx Mavericks). I fixed the issue with gcc, and I used brew to install wxmac (version 3.0). The issue that keeps coming up is that the hackage cabal searches for looks for wx 2.9, while I have 3.0. It says that it can't find:
Warning: No config found to match: /usr/local/bin/wx-config --version=2.9 --version-full
in /usr/local/Cellar/wxmac/3.0.0.0/lib/wx/config
If you require this configuration, please install the desired
library build. If this is part of an automated configuration
test and no other errors occur, you may safely ignore it.
You may use wx-config --list to see all configs available in
the default prefix.
I can't find any way to install a different version of wx through brew. Does anyone have a fix?
Thanks!
