Re: PCP build on Ubuntu Precise (kernel 3.2) - [solved]

[Amer Ather <aather@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks Ken for prompt reply! ÂI installed libmicrohttpd and libmicrohttpd-dev packages:

libmicrohttpd10_0.9.20-precise-2_amd64.deb

libmicrohttpd-dev_0.9.20-precise-2_amd64.debÂ

Ran Makepkg and build generated all the required packages. I added libmicrohttpd and libmicrohttpd-dev deb packages into the list of packages.Â

Tried installing these packages on a freshly booted Ubuntu Precise system using:

# apt-get update

# dpkg *.deb

# apt-get install -fÂ

All packages were installed correctly except pcp-webapi_3.9.7_amd64.deb package, that failed with error:

"Selecting previously unselected package pcp-webapi.

Unpacking pcp-webapi (from pcp-webapi_3.9.7_amd64.deb) ...

Please let me know the best way to fix it.

I think there is a better option for you.

Â

Get libmicrohttpd10_0.9.20-precise-2_amd64.deb and libmicrohttpd-dev_0.9.20-precise-2_amd64.deb packages. I found them here http://bibi21000.gallet.info/index.php/fr/nature/94-recettes.html

Â

Then run ./Makepkgs from the top of the PCP source tree.
