OpenCPN Nothing Happens Ubuntu 12.04?

[cagney]

I tested to install the same package as you on my 32 bit. I saw the same error message from Ubuntu Software center as you. The package, did however, install cleanly from the command line!!!

Find a command line and "cd" to the directory where the package is.

sudo dpkg -i opencpn_2.6 (+ hit TAB)

Thomas...

Any idea what is going on with the 12.04 package installer? Is it a problem with our package, really, or something else?

For opencpn_2.6.1705-1_i386.deb (your package) the problem is that Ubuntu Software center is a wee bit more picky than dpkg. The reason for refusal to install goes something like this:

The package doesn't provide a valid Installed Size control field.See Debian Policy 5.6.20.

For opencpn_2.6.1705-2_i386.deb (my package) both the Software center and dpkg agrees that it'a corrupted package. Why - I don't know, but it fits in with what you found out earlier about my package.
The produced binary works on my system. The problem lies in "make package" on my system. Upgrading and recompiling today, did not help.
The full error message is

(Reading database ... 162953 files and directories currently installed.)
Unpacking opencpn (from .../opencpn_2.6.1705-3_i386.deb) ...
dpkg: error processing /home/thomas/opencpn_2.6.1705-3_i386.deb (--install):

dpkg-deb (subprocess): data: internal gzip write error: Broken pipe
dpkg-deb (subprocess): failed in write on buffer copy for failed to write to pipe in copy: Broken pipe
dpkg-deb: error: subprocess <decompress> returned error exit status 2

I'm withdrawing opencpn_2.6.1705-2_i386.deb from the download page.

Dave, Thomas...
The biggest complaint from Lintian, which is now invoked by Ubuntu Software Center is that we install to /usr/local and not /usr. The rest are file/directory permissions we seem to set too loose and missing paperwork - I have almost killed all the errors locally - patch coming in a few minutes...

hi thanks gave that a try. It installed but gives a serious error when it runs and aborts.

Patch that should hopefully solve the Ubuntu complaints is at https://github.com/nohal/OpenCPN/com...c1dd582b.patch
To build a package that passes the lintian check:

cmake -DPREFIX=/usr ..
sudo make package

What's puzzling is that it looks like cmake is not able to produce a functining deb on (my incarnation of) Precise at all - During installation dpkg/USC complain about corrupted tarfile being part of the package - looks like tar version mismatch between system tar and debian tools - lintian also says it does not know "SCHILY.fflags". Will keep looking

UPDATE: Looks like cmake 2.8.7 distributed in Precise is broken once again and we are not the only affected: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...ke/+bug/997994
Tried to create the package with locally built cmake 2.8.8 and it (after solving gtk include problems similar to what was happening last time when Canonical moved the includes around) produced a working DEB.

Testing further.
I compiled 1705 on a virtual XUbuntu 11.10, available here http://opencpn.org/ocpn/downloads/be...705-3_i386.deb.
This package installed on 12.04 software center without any problems at all.
So, a lot of problems seems to be caused by compiling on 12.04.

It runs fine as well on 12.04 except for gps. There is a conflict between using libgps19 for compiling and libgps20 for running.
If gpsd is backward compatible, then this is an OpenCPN problem.

If you only uses gps for OpenCPN there is no need for gpsd.
Direct connection to /dev/ttyUSB0 was refused. The problem here, was that a normal user did not belong to the "dialout" group in my XUbuntu 12.04 installation. I have never had that problem with (K)Ubuntu, or at least it was a long time ago.

I'm using BU353, and switching to direct connection also means that the mode must be switched from "sirf" to "Nmea" on the gps. This is slightly more complicated now, when gpsd is auto started on USB connection.
Follow the instructions in the wiki.

Cagney, I installed that latest deb from cmd line but gives an error

I also tried software center and got an error first time. Then installed from cmdline. Then tried software center again and installed with no error but still gives an error when trying to start.

[sdowney717]

run this "sudo apt-get install libtinyxml2.6.2"

ok I installed the missing package and opencpn runs.
I still dont get any gps data
And I get a libgps mismatch error when starting or selecting libgps in opencpn.
xgps is working

I'm out cruising and needed a workaround to get OpenCPN running properly on Ubuntu 12.04. After a couple of hours of messing around I found that uninstalling GPSD and libgps20, grabbing the previous versions from the repositories and using them instead did the job.

The only thing to watch thereafter is that Ubuntu will keep trying to reinstall the latest versions of GPSD and libgps when running the update manager, so one has to prevent it from doing so manually.

[bdbcat]

Sailfettler....

I would like to investigate further.

Do you say that O on Ubuntu 12.04 with standard(12.04) gpsd does not work? If so, more detail please.

What version of OpenCPN? Where downloaded from?
Output from

$gpsd -V

Logfile?

Thanks
Dave

[Sailfettler]

Hi Dave,

There have been developments since I posted that. The upshot is that I now have the latest OpenCPN update (3.0.2) with the libgps20 and the latest gpsd and everything is working happily together.

I was on OpenCPN 2.5.0-2, which worked with libgps19 and corresponding gpsd. Then OpenCPN 3.0.0, which didn't work with either libgps19 or 20.

A happy ending - hats off to the team.

Jim....

OK, great news. I see no other gpsd problems with O 3.0.2, at least so far,
(except maybe on Macintosh, and we are working that now)...
Thanks
Dave
