Hi

Trying to make Amarok 5 and getting following error:

Code: Select all

[ 50%] Linking CXX executable testtrackorganizer
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lgmock
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make[2]: *** [tests/CMakeFiles/testtrackorganizer.dir/build.make:144: tests/testtrackorganizer] Error 1
make[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/Makefile2:1251: tests/CMakeFiles/testtrackorganizer.dir/all] Error 2



Gmock and Gtest are both installed.

Thanks

Usually it's not enough just to install gtest and gmock, because this just installs the source code. So they also need to be built, e.g. .like explained here:

(That said, I'm strongly in favor of making gmock an optional dependency of Amarok, because it's such a hassle. I might go ahead and do just that.)

Thanks Mark

I have got beyond that problem by doing just that, building and installing gmock.

Now running into a mass of issues with TestTrackOrganizer.cpp

Thanks

Alright, so in that case we can simply disable compilation of the tests altogether. Delete your build folder, and then add this to your CMake line:

Code: Select all

-DBUILD_TESTING=off

Getting there but now have a mysql problem, ld can't find it. I though all the dev files were there.

Anyway, I'm out of time.

Thnaks for your help.
