Compiling OCPN on Scientific Linux 6.4 64bit

[HotRod]

Hi, i'm trying to compile OCPN on SL6.4 but ran into some problems.

When running cmake ../ it reports:
- GTK2 not found
- Could not find TinyXML

Seems to be the only errors this far...

I have tried to alter the path for GTK2 to /usr/include/gtk-2.0 but no luck.
It also reverts next time I run cmake ../

I have confirmed GTK2 and TinyXML to be installed on the system:
"Package tinyxml-2.6.1-1.el6.x86_64 already installed and latest version"
"Package gtk2-2.18.9-12.el6.x86_64 already installed and latest version"

Any suggestions?

HotRod...
you need the respective -devel packages, can you confirm those being installed? Scientific Linux is a RedHat EL clone, right?

Yes it's based on RedHat EL.
I found this distro to be really smooth running and have not given me any grief when running other similar programs... Broad hardware support.

What -devel packages are we talking about?

On my Kubuntu they are:
libtinyxml-dev
libgtk2.0-dev
The Red Hat names may be slightly different, but you get the idea.

You probably need
wxGTK-devel RPM DEB Download (I suppose it will pull the needed dependencies when installed) and tinyxml-devel RPM DEB Download - anyway, the CentOS part of Compiling - Linux | Official OpenCPN Homepage should apply 100% for Scientific...

Hi again.
Package wxGTK-devel-2.8.12-1.el6.x86_64 already installed and latest version

Had to install tinyxml-devel.
tinyxml-devel.x86_64 0:2.6.1-1.el6

I'm only getting: GTK2 Not found..
But I know that it is installed (gtk2-2.18.9-12.el6.x86_64 and gtk2-devel-2.18.9-12.el6.x86_64)...

Hotrod....

GTK2 search is optional. If it is not found, certain optimizations related to night colors are not performed. But OCPN should build and run without GTK2.

I think we plan to remove this soft dependency in the future.

Good luck
