I am trying to build krita on my Ubuntu LTS 16.04 but got stuck while configuring with cMake file.
I am building krita using Mr. David Revoy tutorial for linux with the link : http://www.davidrevoy.com/article193/guide-building-krita-on-linux-for-cats
I have installed all libraries and dependencies using the link in tutorial : https://community.kde.org/Krita/linuxbuild

Code: Select all

yash build $ cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$HOME/krita/inst $HOME/krita/src -DWITH_GMIC=ON -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo -DPRODUCTSET=ALL -DPACKAGERS_BUILD=ON -DBUILD_TESTING=OFF -DKDE4_BUILD_TESTS=OFF

Please help me to think over it!

Read the output: it is very clear.

The versions of the dependencies you installed are too old.

As the last guide you link to says:

"Notes: Ubuntu L.T.S and its derivatives (Linux Mint/Elementary) use too old packages to build Krita 4.x. If you want to compile Krita, use the short term support releases."

So, update your Ubuntu to a more recent version, or remove the dependencies and build them yourself using the guide in the 3rdparty folder, or find ppa's that add more recent versions of Qt, KDE Frameworks and Vc.

Thank you very much sir,
i will upgrade my Ubuntu OS to the latest version .....
can i get to know ! -what do they mean by "short term support release" :Notes: Ubuntu L.T.S and its derivatives (Linux Mint/Elementary) use too old packages to build Krita 4.x. If you want to compile Krita, use the short term support releases.

Hi yashdhingra,
Long-Term Support versions (LTS) are supported for a longer than normal period. Implicitly, the others are also referred as mid(short)-term versions.
Installing Ubuntu 16.10 and up should help in your case.
