Help installing Hippo viewer...

[bforest]

Hello all..

I would like to install the following linux software on my FreeBSD (PCBSD) workstation. I was wondering if someone could give me some pointers before I try it.

http://mjm-labs.com/viewer/index.php (scroll to bottom)

This software is a viewer/client for SL and similar virtual worlds.

Instructions for installation on Linux are here:

http://mjm-labs.com/viewer/build.php?platform=Linux

Thanks in advance for any assistance you might provide.

Build instructions are the same on BSD.

From the list at the link, the dependencies are:
devel/subversion (Only needed to fetch the source)
devel/scons (Needed for building only)
devel/bison (Probably needed for building only)
lang/python25
graphics/libGLU

The rest is included in FreeBSD base.

Almost...

on PCBSD the only thing that seems to be needed from the list is "devel/scons (Needed for building only)" since the others are already standard in PCBSD.

I found some additional ports that are needed..
ftp/wget
devel/cmake


Now I am having problems with some of the scripts.. They are looking for and expecting a Linux distribution. They are trying to run "uname -o" which doesn't work on FreeBSD. Here are the errors I am getting and here is the two scripts that I am trying to run.

=First Error=

root@pcbsd# scripts/build.sh                                          
uname: illegal option -- o
usage: uname [-aimnprsv]

I resolved the first error (see below) enough to be able to run the scripts but...

=Second Error=

root@pcbsd# scripts/Fbuild.sh
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./develop.py", line 676, in <module>
    main(sys.argv[1:])
  File "./develop.py", line 607, in main
    setup = setup_platform[sys.platform]()
KeyError: 'freebsd7'

Is there a proper way to fix this or do I need to "doctor it up" like I did the scripts. I don't know Python so not sure which way to go from here.

I copied these two scripts:

cp scripts/addons_get_fmod.sh scripts/Faddons_get_fmod.sh
cp scripts/build.sh scripts/Fbuild.sh


and made changes to the copies so they would run:

The problem is in develop.py, add "freebsd7" needs to be added to the setup_platform dict, this dict is defined in develop.py or in one of the imports ...

[bforest]

Thank you so much for your support "Carpetsmoker"

I made the following changes to ./linden/indra/develop.py:

setup_platform = {
    'darwin': DarwinSetup,
    'linux2': LinuxSetup,
    'freebsd7': LinuxSetup,
    'win32' : WindowsSetup,
    'cygwin' : CygwinSetup
    }

I received the following error, and am building cmake now:

Ok.. now apparently GCC is missing.. They want 4.1 but I only see 4.2 and above in the ports tree

Should I just build gcc42 and after that do I need to remake "cmake" to see it or ...

[bforest]

GCC is here but I don't know how to get it to show its version.

Oh! found it..

root@pcbsd# gcc -dumpversion
4.2.1

So.. in this file ./source/linden/indra/develop.py there is this section which lists the compiler version and seems to indicate I could set this in the environment with $CXX or should I just modify it in here?

Just try something like:
# find hippoviewersrc/ -type f -exec sed -i.orig 's|g[+c][+c]4\.1|g[+c][+c]4.2|'

Bit bruteforce ... But it generally works.

[bforest]

Thanks again for your efforts to help me...

Please excuse my ignorance but ... I am not quite sure how to apply your suggestion.

I created a directory and put a copy of the python script into it because that was what I think is giving the error. I assume you are using SED to substitute references to 4.1 in that script to 4.2.

I don't understand the purpose of "-e.orig" option for SED. What command should be executed there?

(The file "develop.py" is attached in a previous post...)

user@pcbsd# ls
develop.py
user@pcbsd# find ./ -type f -exec sed -e.orig 's|g[+c][+c]4\.1|g[+c][+c]4.2|'
find: -exec: no terminating ";" or "+"
user@pcbsd# find ./ -type f -exec sed -e.orig 's|g[+c][+c]4\.1|g[+c][+c]4.2|';
find: -exec: no terminating ";" or "+"
user@pcbsd# find ./ -type f -exec sed -e.orig 's|g[+c][+c]4\.1|g[+c][+c]4.2|;'
find: -exec: no terminating ";" or "+"

[Carpetsmoker]

I don't understand the purpose of "-e.orig" option for SED. What command should be executed there?

It should be -i.orig, it edits files in place saving a backup to <file>.orig
Sorry for the typo.

Note you may also need to escape the plus signs (\+ instead of +) in the search pattern ... Not sure and I can't try it (Recently moved, no internet yet, mostly Windows at work ...).

[bforest]

Maybe the issue is not the Python script but "cmake" instead...

I am hoping to get some help installing version 0.6.2 of this viewer.

http://mjm-labs.com/viewer/index.php

It has been a while since I last attempted this but.. I am now upgraded to PCBSD-8 and since they have continued to improve the Hippo Viewer ( I had heard it would not be ) it seems like a good time to revisit.

[user@pcbsd-2153]/home/user(27)% uname -a
FreeBSD pcbsd-2153 8.0-RELEASE-p2 
FreeBSD 8.0-RELEASE-p2 #4: Thu Jan  7 09:20:42 PST 2010
     root@build8x32.pcbsd.org:/usr/obj/usr/pcbsd-build80/fbsd-source/8.0-src/sys/PCBSD  i386

Successful Installation of this software will provide a FreeBSD client for visiting Opensimulator (or SecondLife) based virtual worlds.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
