I have no issue in compiling in ubuntu 17.10. I don’t know the reason of your error, but I can share my configuration (it may help):
I compile with gcc 6.4.0
I used Qt5.10 compiled with the Jc’s qt-easy-build script.
this is the string that I used to configure Slicer:
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE:STRING=Debug -DQt5_DIR=/home/davide/Slicer/Support/qt-everywhere-build-5.10.0/lib/cmake/Qt5 …/Slicer
In general I noticed that if you miss -DQt5_DIR variable (and you setup the Qt5 paths later on, e.g. in ccmake), you can have issue.
I hope helps
Why should you try to build it on Ubuntu. I just unpacked the tar-file and the I could run Slicer rightaway just from the slicer-file in the folder. Created a extra quicklauncher in the menu.
Done!
Correction: I’m not sure why I wrote Ubuntu 17.10 in the title. I’m actually running Pop!_OS. I think it’s based on Ubuntu 17.10, but it might not be the exact same thing. I’ll correct the title.
Yes. I deleted everything in the Slicer build directory and ran these commands again to be 100% sure:
cd S4D
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE:STRING=Debug -DQt5_DIR=/media/vaughan/workspace/lnx/devel/Support/qt-everywhere-build-5.10.0/lib/cmake/Qt5 …/S4
make -j7
I got the same result.
All the Qt definitions I see in ccmake refer to my Qt build (in /media/vaughan/workspace/lnx/devel/Support/). So I’m not sure what’s going on… whether it’s a configuration problem or something gone weird when I built Qt5. As far as I can tell I haven’t deviated from the usual process.
In case it’s relevant here are the versions of various packages/builds I’m using:
GCC: 7.2.0 installed through package manager
Git: 2.14.1
CMake: 3.11.0, built from source with openssl support
I’m not sure where I am supposed to find the build script in the second link you sent. But the links still helped. I can get Slicer to compile now. I ran the following:
From the first message, it seems like the problem is higher, at the Qt build level: the uic program is linked against system Qt libraries rather than against the libraries in its build tree:
/media/vaughan/workspace/lnx/devel/Support/qt-everywhere-build-5.10.0/bin/uic: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQt5Core.so.5: version `Qt_5.10’ not found (required by /media/vaughan/workspace/lnx/devel/Support/qt-everywhere-build-5.10.0/bin/uic)
So the problem is potentially with Qt or the qt-easy-build discovery process rather than Slicer per se. (but the only thing I can think of is maybe you have LD_LIBRARY_PATH set already, for a Nix or multi-arch configuration? then ld might defer to those during build as in the link from Andras).
@Davide_Punzo@tavaughan when you build with qt-easy-build, do you get QtWebEngine? Did you install anything other than the Slicer prerequisites?
I’ve built on two different systems, and didn’t get QtWebEngine either time. From this list it seems I was missing bison, flex, and gperf (at least)… trying again after installing.
In addition, I noticed that I had to do a clean installation to get to compile the webengine (i.e., this workflow was not working: tried to compile, error, installing additional libraries, trying again to compile). It looked like the configuration script was not really looking again.
P.S.: at a cetain point the script print out the configuration building. This is mine after installing all the libraries in the post (and maybe few others) and doing again a clean building of Qt:

Thanks. The set of dependencies from the ICS link seems to have done it. Now I get a listing for WebEngine in the configure output. Unfortunately as far as I can tell there is no way to make ./configure fail fast if webengine won’t be built (https://github.com/jcfr/qt-easy-build/issues/40).
.
I usually use -j flag, I didn’t use it this time because I want to see the output one line at a time before the build stops.
!
Edit: Though inconvenience that I have to export the LD_LIBRARY_PATH to run Slicer from Terminal.
