Installing 1.5.0svn on 10.8.5 with Homebrew problem

[wkc1986]

hello...tried to use the Homebrew formula linked on the wiki to install 1.5.0. I installed Qt 5.2.1 in ~/Qt/5.2.1/ (https://gist.githubusercontent.com/luzpaz/9042115/raw/scribus-dev.rb). I get this error:

'CMake Error: The source directory "/tmp/scribus-dev-hrSL/ -DQT_PREFIX=~/Qt/5.2.1/clang_64" does not exist.'

But ~/Qt/5.2.1/clang_64 very much exists. Any ideas? thanks

hello wkc

cMake searches the file in 'tmp' – did you miss 'chdir' somewhere?

Hi thanks for the response. This is my first time using Homebrew or cmake so I'm pretty confused unfortunately. I don't know why cmake is searching in the wrong directory or even what directory it's in, I only know that the cmake command generated by Homebrew is:

cmake .  -DBUILD_OSX_BUNDLE=1  -DWANT_CAIRO=1  -DWANT_HUNSPELL=1  -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=/usr/local/Cellar/scribus-dev/HEAD/ScribusDev.app/Contents/  -DUSE_QT5=1  -DWITH_PODOFO=1  -DQT_PREFIX=~/Qt/5.2.1/clang_64

or even what directory it's in,

You need to know that because...

cmake .  -DBUILD_OSX_BUNDLE=1  ...

The period after cmake means "current directory", so the current directory has to be where the source is located.

[wkc1986]

Right, so I tried building again with brew --debug which drops me into a shell as cmake fails. I find that I'm in the directory

/private/tmp/scribus-dev-zow5

which I guess is a temporary directory Homebrew creates to store the source code (in scribus/) and cmake files (in cmake/) and run the build (the '-zow5' changes to something different each time). Of course Qt is not here.

But it almost seems that what's wrong is cmake is interpreting the entire string '/tmp/scribus-dev-zow5/ -DQT_PREFIX=~/Qt/5.2.1/clang_64' as a path, which is obviously wrong.

(ETA: the full CMake error message)

Well I have solved (?) that problem to run into another one. Looking at man cmake and the MacPorts guide I saw that cmake will take whatever the last argument is and append that to the current directory to find the source dir, so I modified the Homebrew formula to give

cmake \ -DBUILD_OSX_BUNDLE=1 \ -DWANT_CAIRO=1 \ -DWANT_HUNSPELL=1 \ -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=/usr/local/Cellar/scribus-dev/HEAD/ScribusDev.app/Contents/ \ -DUSE_QT5=1 \ -DWITH_PODOFO=1 \ -DQT_PREFIX=~/Qt/5.2.1/clang_64 scribus

and I no longer have the 'source directory does not exist' error. But now cmake crashes with

OK, I'm happy to say I have managed to compile and run (something, anyway). Some spaces in the Brew formula were messing up the cmake options. Thanks for all your help! Here is what worked for me.

thanks for submitting your solution!

i'm still waiting for a scribus 1.4.4 before the end of this year – with the ability to export .pdf/x-1a i would have enough 1.5 functionality for the time being.
if 1.4.4 takes more time, i'll try your modified code...

Only thing is that the following line has been altered:

Scribus 1.4.4 had already been released. I've installed the *.dmg without any problems.

[edit: typo corrected]

Scribus 1.4.4 had already been released.

just sent the first four .pdf/x1-a files generated with 1.4.4 to the printshop – works fine so far...

Homebrew formula was recently broken because of changes made to the svnheader. I need to change the recipe for how homebrew checksout the scn so that it creates a revision numbered copy.

[Kunda]

As of June 22nd, 2014 the Homebrew formula works again:
http://wiki.scribus.net/canvas/Scribus_and_Homebrew

Important Note (from the core devs):
- Dont use 1.5 for production, dont rely on it to work day to day. Use 1.4.4 for that.
- If you ignore the above, be prepared to stay on a version that works for you. There's normally no
reason to change every day.
- Homebrew is not supported by Scribus, nor is building with it. That's Kunda's thing.
- No bugs for homebrew solutions in our tracker.
