Checkinstall on Ubuntu gives undefined references
Posted: Tue May 02, 2006 6:23 pm
I nearly have ZM working on Ubuntu! I'm moving this thread from http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=133506 as the problem may as much be ZM related as Ubuntu.
Ubuntu's Synaptic Package Manager does a super job of installing apps from Ubuntu's repository and some others. However ZM isn't in there so we have to do things the old way (but I'm new!). I've based this on the ZM Debian install notes and whatever help I could find. If I can ever get this to work I'll do a full Howto.
Here's how I got this far:
Install EasyUbuntu (http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/) and on the web tab enable the additional repositories and hit OK.
Using Synaptic install auto-apt. Auto-apt will usually fetch and install any packages that are required, by ZM, for example, but I also had to manually install gawk, libavcoded-dev and ffmpeg.
Auto-apt automatically gets all the required Perl modules (lots of them) and for each one pops up a list box with an Install / Cancel button at the bottom. Some of the boxes are too big for a 1024x768 screen and there is no way to get to the Install with the mouse. The solution is to hit Shift-Tab twice on each dialog to get the focus on the install button before pressing Enter. Try this on some of the smaller dialogs before you reach the big ones.
Ramses de Norre suggests running the ZM install like this. These steps seem to work OK with my addition of the webdir and cgidir. (Skip the "apt-get install auto-apt" if you've already installed it from Synaptic.)
The result is that I have success at all steps except the last. Here's what happens:
Does anyone know how to fix this?
