Need help compiling on mac

[stevefal]

I'm trying to build on mac. I've gotten this far. Any ideas?

  $ make
  make -C  /Users/steve/magic-lantern/platform/5D3.113
  [ VERSION  ]   ../../platform/5D3.113/version.bin
  make[1]: truncate: No such file or directory
  make[1]: *** [../../platform/5D3.113/version.bin] Error 1
  make: *** [5D3] Error 2

The only lines I've so far changed in makefile.user are

  SUPPORTED_MODELS:=5D3
  GCC_VERSION=-4.7.2
  ARM_PATH=~/yagarto/yagarto-4.7.2

My PATH contains:

  /Users/steve/yagarto/yagarto-4.7.2/bin:/Users/steve/yagarto/yagarto-4.7.2/tools:/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin

You need to install truncate

[stevefal]

Well, sure.. Which truncate from where?

[Francis]

I used MacPorts to install truncate. You might have to also remove the -s flag after the truncate command in makefile.src

[stevefal]

I installed MacPorts, but it has no truncate - not as an executable anyway.

/opt/local/bin and /opt/local/sbin are the MacPorts PATH entries.

[kichetof]

sudo port install truncate

[stevefal]

sudo port install truncate

Thanks.

[stevefal]

Getting further...

  make docq
  cd /Users/steve/magic-lantern/platform/all; make docq
  cd ../../doc && RST2LATEX=rst2latex.py python2 mkdoc.py
  /bin/sh: python2: command not found
  make[1]: *** [docq] Error 127
  make: *** [docq] Error 2

Is there a particular Python I need to install? I thought that Mac has python installed by default.

[stevefal]

Ok, got past that by setting in Makefile.user:

  PYTHON=python2.7

Installed montage with "sudo port install montage" but still:

  make docq
  cd /Users/steve/magic-lantern/platform/all; make docq
  cd ../../doc && RST2LATEX=rst2latex.py python2.7 mkdoc.py
  sh: montage: command not found
  make[1]: *** [docq] Error 1
  make: *** [docq] Error 2

[Marsu42]

  make docq

I never managed to build docq on Windows cygwin/msys/mingw either - rest assured, you will run into even more problems further down the road.

My advice: Ignore it, the main ml binary & modules are compiles without the doc, and if you really want to produce a complete distribution zip package use a vm like virtualbox with some stable linux like debian stable, ubuntu lts or centos so you just have to set it up once.

I used VM, finally no more bugs and all my problems solved:

[stevefal]

My advice: Ignore it...

How? The Make fails like this:

No menuindex.txt! The "Complete user guide" menu is empty!
Run make docq to update menuindex.txt.

[ CC       ]   menuindex.o
../../src/menuindex.c:108:42: fatal error: menuindexentries.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.
make[1]: *** [menuindex.o] Error 1
make: *** [5D3] Error 2

Thanks, I'll try that route if I can't get any further.

Where did you get your source from? Did you clone it with "hg clone -r unified https://bitbucket.org/hudson/magic-lantern" ?
Have you tried  "make 5D3" ?

[Marsu42]

How? The Make fails like this:

Yes, but you can circumvent it by compiling the core & modules expicitly:

Code: [Select]

make 60D # or whatever your camera is
cd modules
make
cd ..
mkdir -p ../dist/ml/modules
rm -f ../dist/ml/modules/*.mo
mv platform/60D.111/autoexec.bin ../dist
mv platform/60D.111/60D_111.sym ../dist/ml/modules/
mv modules/*/*.mo ../dist/ml/modules


[stevefal]

Where did you get your source from? Did you clone it with "hg clone -r unified https://bitbucket.org/hudson/magic-lantern" ?
Have you tried  "make 5D3" ?

Yes on both, that's when I get the error:

No menuindex.txt! The "Complete user guide" menu is empty!
Run make docq to update menuindex.txt.

[ CC       ]   menuindex.o
../../src/menuindex.c:108:42: fatal error: menuindexentries.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.
make[1]: *** [menuindex.o] Error 1
make: *** [5D3] Error 2

[stevefal]

Yes, but you can circumvent it by compiling the core & modules expicitly:

I get the 'menuindexentries.h: No such file or directory' error on the first step, e.g. "make 5D3" or "make 60D"

And yes, trying to make docq leads to a wormhole.

[wolf]

do you use the cloned source code?

[stevefal]

Yes, if I'm understanding correctly. I'm using the code fetched with "hg clone -r unified https://bitbucket.org/hudson/magic-lantern"

[wolf]

My menuindexentries.h is an empty file in my source code. You could try to add an empty file with this name to ../src/ .
And wait for the next error ;-) It looks like you dont't have it.

[stevefal]

Yeah, 'make clean' removes it too. Adding the empty file got me further but still no dice - lots of spew but no clear error and no bins.

[Francis]

Yea, I had to make that file also. FYI, the command 'touch whatfileyouneed.h' will create a file of that name with no content, rather than saving an empty text doc or something like that. What is your error now?

[wolf]

lots of spew but no clear error and no bins.

Can you post it?
It's important to see where the compilation fails.

There is no need to generate the doc in order to get a binary. See my output.
