[Linphone-users] Re: How to compile Linphone 3.31

[Garry Tristan]

Hi Jakob,

Thank you very much for your help. You are right, I was trying to compile under Ubuntu 10.04 x64. I followed your instructions. The "sudo apt-get build-dep linphone" has added 270+ MB in my system.

After that I followed the instructions, got various errors and at the end linphone was still 3.21. "glade-gtk/./linphone-3" didn'tstart Linphone 3.31 either (Error = No such file or directory).

In anyway, I have had enough! This confirms my suspicion about why the author didn't supply compilation instructions. It is too complex and not to be done by anyone not used to Linux development. It would be nicer to supply a *.deb package.

Damn! Today I have just done a quite complex installation of a Sharepoint 2010 Dev machine in a VM from A to Z. And yet, I am powerless to compile just a small program.

Now I would like to undo whatever I have done. Removing all the un-necessary stuffs I brought in to compile Linphone 3.31. Do you know how to do it?

Thanks in advance.

You are trying to compile on Ubuntu 10.04, right? You need to install
the build-dependencies for linphone first.

1.) Go to System -> Software package sources
2.) Tick the box for "source code", the close and reload
3.) Do "sudo apt-get build-dep linphone"
4.) Open a terminal, go to the linphone dir and do "./configure" and
"make"
5.) linphone compiles (sudo make install doesn't work properly for me
though, when I start linphone after installing it just says "linphone-3:
error while loading shared libraries: libortp.so.8: cannot open shared
object file: No such file or directory".
6.) Anyway, you can start it from the directory using
"glade-gtk/./linphone-3"

Have fun,
Tanzbaer.
