I am trying to install KMM v5 on a fresh install of Linux Mint 18.3 KDE. The build-dep step seems to be missing a lot of development libraries. After poking around on the forum i found some info that got me part way to installation but now the cmake command fails with the following error:

>cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr
.
.
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:58 (find_package):
By not providing "FindLibAlkimia5.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH this project
has asked CMake to find a package configuration file provided by
"LibAlkimia5", but CMake did not find one.

Could not find a package configuration file provided by "LibAlkimia5"
(requested version 7.0.0) with any of the following names:

LibAlkimia5Config.cmake
libalkimia5-config.cmake

I can't seem to find that library anywhere.
sudo apt-get install LibAlkimia5
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package LibAlkimia5

The library seems to be installed but without the required .cmake files;
locate libalkimia5
/usr/share/doc/libalkimia5
/usr/share/doc/libalkimia5/changelog.Debian.gz
/usr/share/doc/libalkimia5/copyright

/var/lib/dpkg/info/libalkimia5.md5sums
/var/lib/dpkg/info/libalkimia5.shlibs
/var/lib/dpkg/info/libalkimia5.triggers

Any help getting KMM v5 installed is greatly appreciated.

KMyMoney 5.0.0 requires LibAlkimia5 version 7.0 (you seem to have version 5.0 here). In case your distro does not have this version (it was released about a month ago) please remove the installed version and find the source on the KDE servers. The GPG signature is also on available on on the KDE servers.

Hope that helps.

Hello there,

Are we going to get windows (.exe format) version. Please advise.

Thanks for the advice. I got the cmake step to complete after installing alkimia and kdiagram (Kchart) packages.

Now in the make step I get the following error:

It looks like Kmymoney broke the compiler. Should I be using a different gcc version than 5.4.0.20160609

I am using clang 3.8.0 to compile due to an even older gcc on my system (5.3.1) which chokes on other constructs.

Ok, so I am not a developer so I am probably over my head here but I got further and am now stumped again.

I installed clang:

Code: Select all

wgking@SYLVIAKDE ~/kmymoney-5.0.0/build $ clang --version
clang version 3.8.0-2ubuntu4 (tags/RELEASE_380/final)
Target: i686-pc-linux-gnu
Thread model: posix
InstalledDir: /usr/bin


I updated the defaults to clang

Code: Select all

wgking@SYLVIAKDE ~/kmymoney-5.0.0/build $ sudo update-alternatives --config c++
There are 2 choices for the alternative c++ (providing /usr/bin/c++).

  Selection    Path              Priority   Status
------------------------------------------------------------
* 0            /usr/bin/g++       20        auto mode
  1            /usr/bin/clang++   10        manual mode
  2            /usr/bin/g++       20        manual mode

Press <enter> to keep the current choice[*], or type selection number: 1
update-alternatives: using /usr/bin/clang++ to provide /usr/bin/c++ (c++) in manual mode
wgking@SYLVIAKDE ~/kmymoney-5.0.0/build $


Deleted/recreated the kmymoney build directory, reran cmake successfully this time.

The install now dies at the link stage with:

The Gpgmepp library is installed. I created a symlink as suggested somewhere but make still fails with same error.

I think I am close to getting a working copy, but would appreciated advice getting over the current hurdle.

The file you found is the runtime library. You probably also need to install the accompanying -dev package for that library.

Success! I have a running copy on Linux Mint 18.3 KDE 32 bit running in a HyperV VM right now.

Now the real testing begins.

Thanks so much for all your help.
