Another FreeBSD problem...

[N00B to Linux]

Hello all,

Use the search feature but didn't found anoything relevant about that.

Btw, if answer is already somewhere, I beg for apologizes.

here is what happen when trying to gmake (everything is ok to this point) :


/usr/X11R6/bin/moc -nw itemdb.h -o m_itemdb.cpp
/usr/X11R6/bin/moc -nw libEQ.h -o m_libEQ.cpp

Dunno exactly what is happening since I didn't made the tiniest modif and everything is compiling ok on me Linux box.

Can some1 help ?

Thanx for your help.

Just a guess, but:

gdbmconv.h:24:18: gdbm.h: No such file or directory

seems you are missing something.

[N00B to Linux]

I for sure understand gdbm.h is missing BUT I don't actually know why...

I installed everything (let's say "properly") but I keep on having this error message.

GDBM is installed and there are "gdbm.h" files on my HD but I don't think these are the good ones.


I tried to compile with one of these files and here is what happened :

So the file not likely to be the good one..


any suggestion ?


NOTE : gdbm version for FreeBSD is 1.8.3, dunno if it is relevant btw...

[junk]

If you read the error:



spellshell.cpp: In member function `QString SpellItem::castTimeStr() const':
spellshell.cpp:99: error: invalid conversion from `const long int*' to `const
time_t*'
gmake[3]: *** [spellshell.o] Error 1


You'll notice that it now has nothing to do with GDBM. If you go to this thread (http://seq.sourceforge.net/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=3600&highlight=const+long+int) (found by searching for "const long int" - was the second one in the list, right after this post), you'll find some (probably disheartening to you) information. WHY you're using FreeBSD as a self-professed newbie is beyond me, there are plenty of simpler distros to use.

[N00B to Linux]

thanx for you reply, I have to admit I didn't use SEARCH for this one.

Why do I use FreeBSD ? Because I use Ipfilter (which is a damn nice firewall) and I already get ShowEQ installed and running successfully on several Linux Distros. I don't especially need it to work, I was just curious to understand what may be so different between BSD and Linux.

Programming isn't my job at all, I am a net engineer but very curious :D

I for sure won't stop here, there is surely something to do.

Any advice beyond this link ?


Thanx btw.
