I am trying to set up a cross-compile environment on an AWS EC2 Ubuntu box targeting Nvida Xavier devices on Cuda 10.2. I tried following the "instructions" at https://docs.nvidia.com/cuda/archive/10.2/cuda-installation-guide-linux/index.html#cross-platform which say to install
sudo dpkg -i cuda-repo-cross-<identifier>_all.deb
but no clue as to where I might get hold of that .deb file, or what <identifier> should be replaced with. I have installed the native package cuda-repo-ubuntu1804-10-2-local-10.2.89-440.33.01_1.0-1_amd64.deb and there are a load of .deb files in /var/cuda-repo-10-2-local-10.2.89-440.33.01, but none of them are that one.
So it turns out that the instructions that can be found by googling for, for instance, "cuda install cross compile" are wrong, or at least so incomplete as makes no difference.
Instead, use the SDK manager https://developer.nvidia.com/nvidia-sdk-manager to install just the host tools. It does run without a GUI.

Stupid question: I'm trying to install libpcap on my macOS (Big Sur) using brew. I've executed "brew install libpcap". Now, I would imagine that I could now run libpcap out of the box, but it tell me that libpcap: command not found. brew tells me this:
If you need to have libpcap first in your PATH, run:
echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/opt/libpcap/bin:$PATH"' >> /Users/michal/.bash_profile
Now I've checkd that it's in the bash_profile, and it doesn't work. So I check the actual package, and in it, there is no binary file. The binary is also not in usr/local/bin.
brew furthermore tells me that
libpcap is keg-only, which means it was not symlinked into /usr/local
because macOS already provides this software and installing another
version in parallel can cause all kinds of trouble.
but I don't really know what this means, seeing that I cannot find it anywhere.
What is going on here? Where is it installed, and how do I run that program?
From TCPDUMP:
... libpcap, a portable C/C++ library for network traffic capture.
libpcap is a library, not a program.
While trying to install Perl modules like JSON::XS or YAML::XS, i receive the same error:
XS.xs:1:10: fatal error: 'EXTERN.h' file not found
I use MacBook, xCode is up to date, everything else that could help is up to date too.
Since OS X El Capitan, Apple introduced System Integrity Protection which restricts writing to /usr/lib /usr/bin and other sensitive directories (even to root or sudo user) that are used by the installation of Perl bundled with the Operating System. This can cause issues when it comes to installing new modules and also if trying to install XS modules ( those linked to external C libraries ).
For this reason you should not consider the default Perl installation as a working development environment, especially if you are installing custom modules.
Check out this thread on PM and others. I had since El-Capitan managed to solve this before by manually building from tarball and adding a few params or environment variables to set the paths believing that it would be best to retain use of the system Perl but this is not the way to go. This makes your environment difficult to build but also brittle and sensitive to OS updates that may either break things in many different ways.
The best practice seems to be starting with a Perl using brew install perl and work in this environment, remembering to setup your bash_profile as directed by the installer.
Also worth remembering to do a brew link perl. If you receive warnings about this clobbering what looks like system Perl libraries don't worry - these are likely modules that were installed by you over the top and it will cause you less trouble to link over these. If you have concerns, make a note of which module installs will be cleared and re-install them once your environment is configured ( ie your module installer approach is configured using cpanm or sticking with the old perl -MCPAN -e shell etc)
This new Perl setup from brew eliminates the need to continuing running sudo which adds another layer of things that can go wrong as environment variables don't follow through and permission conflicts arise etc.
Finally to simplify package/module installation I suggest doing a brew install cpanminus. If you had previously already installed this, you can ensure the paths etc are configured by doing a brew reinstall cpanminus
If you want to take it another step further then you can install perlbrew as well which will give you the ability to run multiple versions of Perl as your user and configure these with their own libs and modules which can be very useful particularly if aligning with your production environment for testing etc.
One problem you may face if moving from system Perl to this kind of approach is needing to deal with any hangovers from installing things with sudo. It wis worth taking a little time to get all this set up right though and your issues going forward will be greatly reduced and you won't be left with that nagging feeling that you don't want to change anything for fear of it all breaking.
I have also come across a Perl Blog Article that suggests a fix for XS issues with perlbrew on Mojave
This Gist described updating your cpan shell install root though this shouldn't be necessary unless your cpan is stuck in an old config after taking steps above.
I've also raised this as a new issue on PerlMonks
After reading https://developer.apple.com/documentation/xcode_release_notes/xcode_10_release_notes#3035624 and installing the Additional headers via
sudo installer -pkg /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/Packages/macOS_SDK_headers_for_macOS_10.14.pkg -target /
I successfully compiled without the missing 'EXTERN.h' error
In order to follow the common advice I also tried with Perlbrew to install a dedicated development version of Perl. Especially with the advice in mind First, do not use the system Perl on MacOS. The installed version is for Apple, not for you (see the discussion here: https://www.perlmonks.org/?node_id=1224727).
Unfortunately, the following error occurred:
Test Summary Report
-------------------
porting/libperl.t (Wstat: 65280 Tests: 35 Failed: 0)
Non-zero exit status: 255
Parse errors: No plan found in TAP output

Result: FAIL

##### Brew Failed #####
Therefore, I decided to install it the following way (and not following the advice due to the error).
Even after having the above mentioned macOS SDK headers already installed on Catalina (macOS 10.15.2) it didn't work for me. I faced the issue during the installation of the Perl module Mac-SystemDirectory-0.13. The following steps (by identifying the missing file in hope of having a more generic approach for more or less equivalent issues) did the trick:
Locate the header file (in this case EXTERN.h)
sudo find /Library -type f -name EXTERN.h
/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX10.14.sdk/System/Library/Perl/5.18/darwin-thread-multi-2level/CORE/EXTERN.h
/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX10.15.sdk/System/Library/Perl/5.28/darwin-thread-multi-2level/CORE/EXTERN.h
/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX10.15.sdk/System/Library/Perl/5.18/darwin-thread-multi-2level/CORE/EXTERN.h
Ensure the installed Perl version (here 5.18) match the header file:
perl -v | grep version
This is perl 5, version 18, subversion 4 (v5.18.4) built for darwin-thread-multi-2level
Export the path for the C-Compiler (note MacOSX10.15.sdk for Catalina and Perl Version 5.18)
export CPATH=/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX10.15.sdk/System/Library/Perl/5.18/darwin-thread-multi-2level/CORE
Invoke the Makefile.PL with perl
perl Makefile.PL
BTW — For anybody who's still struggling with this, my workaround was:
bash% module="Sub::Util" # For example
bash% cpanm --configure-args="INC=-I/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX.sdk/System/Library/Perl/5.18/darwin-thread-multi-2level/CORE" "$module"
Please try this
CPATH=$(dirname $(find /usr/local/Cellar/ -name EXTERN.h)) cpan JSON::XS
For Big Sur and perl 5.30, EXTERN.h is at /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX11.3.sdk/System/Library/Perl/5.30/darwin-thread-multi-2level/CORE
I'm trying to upgrade CPAN itself and got that error. But I have /usr/bin/cpan and I can't write there so I have to tweak it to write the updated version to /usr/local/bin/cpan.
No promises, but yum install perl-devel worked for me.
As #huyz has helpfully pointed out, if you hit this error on a Mac, you don't have this option, even though this is probably your issue, and you need to follow one of the above methods of getting a version of Perl that isn't missing important chunks, as per other answers.
But if, dear reader, you hit this error on a linux host, as I did, then this might be an option for you.
Building on what E Lisse suggested, you might also have luck looking in
/System/Volumes/Data/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/
For example:
CPATH=$(dirname $(find /System/Volumes/Data/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/ -name EXTERN.h)) cpan JSON::XS
You could also find where EXTERN.h is located and add that to your shell by default, e.g. in your .bashrc or .zshrc file:
export CPATH=/System/Volumes/Data/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX12.sdk/System/Library/Perl/5.18/darwin-thread-multi-2level/CORE/
I am trying to setup a MySQL server using CentOS (No GUI) and I need to switch to OpenSSL instead of YaSSL in order to have access to the encryption tools.
The issues happen when runing the cmake. At first I got the error that cmake was not able to find boost, I fixed this adding the parameter -DWITH_BOOST.
The cmake line is as follows.
cmake . -DWITH_READLINE=ON -DWITH_SSL=system -DWITH_BOOST=/usr/local/src/mysql-5.7.20/boost/
After the adjustment I ran again the CMAKE the I got several errors.
SSL Error, cmake can not find the OpenSSL files. I checked if the library was installed, I also downloaded the tar.gz file and decompress it and pointed the cmake to the folder, none of this worked.
Can not find NUMA libraries, again I checked and it is installed, at this point I ran the system update to check for everything but this did not solve the issue.
Can not find the ncurses, the same thing, is on the system but for some reason cmake is not able to find those.
Can not fin libaio, I didn't have this one installed, I installed, ran cmake again, and again cmake was not able to find it.
I been looking around, trying to figure out all this issues, I've been joining information from different websites but still not able to figure out this.
Thanks ahead to everyone for the help.
You're facing the dependencies hell with MySQL. If you don't really need to compile from the sources, you still can install with the RPM which is much easier. The RPM method is described here : https://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql-yum-repo-quick-guide/en/
As you're asking a ready-to-go install from the sources, this is what I just did and it worked, on a fresh CentOS 7.4 minimal, 2 vcpus 3Gb :
yum group install -y 'Development Tools'
yum install -y cmake ncurses-devel curl
curl -Ovk https://cdn.mysql.com/Downloads/MySQL-5.7/mysql-5.7.20.tar.gz
tar zxf mysql-5.7.20.tar.gz
cd mysql-5.7.20
cmake . -DDOWNLOAD_BOOST=1 -DWITH_BOOST=$HOME/boost -DENABLE_DOWNLOADS=1
make -j2
make install
After that you need to configure it, add the startup scripts, and of course secure it. Here are some additional docs :
http://howtolamp.com/lamp/mysql/5.6/installing/
https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/mysql-secure-installation.html
Perhaps try make clean; cmake clean; ldconfig then run your cmake command. Sometimes the system can't find the shared libraries, and ldconfig refreshes the library search path. This helped once when I was compiling something (emscripten?) which required a lot of libraries which I was installing as compilation errors arose.
The make clean; cmake clean will ensure that the compiler isn't looking at the old library search path when you recompile.
I've recently installed MacPorts as explained on MacPorts website. All the process went well. The .profile file in my home directory has been updated (in this file the paths "/opt/local/bin" and "/opt/local/sbin" are added to the environment variable PATH) and all the macports files are in the directory "/opt". When I type "which port" in the shell, it returns "/opt/local/bin/port".
But something weird happens when I ask to install the port "octave-devel" (I've installed MacPorts to use Octave on my Mac in the first place). So when I enter the command "sudo port install octave-devel +atlas+docs" (as explained in GNU Octave wiki) in the terminal and type my password, the shell replies "Error: Port octave-devel not found". However the port "octave-devel" seems to exist because I've found its description on this page of the macports website.
Because I had to use Octave quickly I first wanted to uninstall MacPorts and install Fink instead and I tried the method described on the MacPorts website but after I typed "sudo port -fp uninstall installed" it returned "Error: No ports matched the given expression". I couldn't even uninstall this software! I really think that it is a problem of MacPorts itself and not the octave port but I can't find what exactly.
Eventually I used Octave on a Windows computer but it annoys me not to know what is wrong with MacPorts on my computer. And mainly, I want to be capable to use GNU Octave on my Mac because I need it for school.
Thank you in advance and happy holidays.
I'm not sure which version of OSX you are running, however, I have octave (not octave-devel) version 3.6.4 installed via macports on a machine running OSX 10.9.1. This was built using:
sudo port install octave
which yields a known bug building the atlas dependency that results from a missing fortran compiler. At this point you have two options. Before attempting to install octave first try to install atlas separately, either overriding the standard clang compiler with the gcc4x flag, or install atlas using:
sudo port install atlas +nofortran
which runs fine using clang. With atlas installed, octave should build to completion although there is a possibility that you will find an error regarding the use of arpack by apple as a vector library. Using +arpack is preferred, so it may be useful to load this by hand as well before starting your octave install.
Trying to install Octave using MacPorts I ran into a similar problem.
Summary
My solution was to first clean & build atlas separately using gcc47 instead of the default mpclang34. Then to build the default octave.
Details
This is on a MacBook running an older OS (10.7.5), the standard Octave (3.8.2) package failed to build - it hung on building the atlas dependency.
Solution:
sudo port clean atlas
sudo port -v install atlas +gcc48
sudo port -v install octave +atlas+docs
I'm currently going through the process of installing Octave via MacPorts. I used the following command which I found on Shifteleven.com:
sudo port install octave-devel +gcc45
It seems to be working so far. You also need to make sure you've installed the Xcode command line tools, which is something that I forgot to do the first time I tried.
I also ran into problems installing Octave using Macports on OSX 10.10.1 and solved them, similar to #Tom_N_PDX and #isak.
Short version
I got it working using one of the options described by #isak.
More detailed version
Running sudo port install octave failed because of the missing Fortran compiler problem.
I next installed Fortran using Macports sudo port install gcc48 and then tried re-installing Octave
sudo port clean octave
sudo port install octave
This "hung" on Atlas, as others have mentioned, although I now realize it just takes a long time and I killed it before it finished. Likely it would have worked, as the output said it had found Fortran
Selected C compiler: /usr/bin/clang
Selected F77 compiler: gfortran48
I then installed atlas separately, using the +gcc48 flag, as suggested by #isak
sudo port install atlas +gcc48
but it displayed the same compiler information as above (consistent with my conjecture that the above would have worked). This process took about 4 hours. You can monitor the progress of the task in the logfile (found with the command sudo port logfile atlas), which reassures you it's doing something and not "hung". (Oddly the output does halt mid-message, but it always eventually resumed. Also there were a lot of warning messages.)
Last, running the following worked:
sudo port clean octave
sudo port install +arpack
I actually first tried without the +arpack option and it worked but I got the following message, consistent with #isak's answer
WARNING: Dependency 'arpack' is installed with the +accelerate variant, using Apple's Vector Libraries which have some known bugs that can cause Octave to crash if using certain functions in arpack. The +atlas variant does not have these issues with Octave, but does take many hours to compile even on modern hardware.
When I reinstalled Octave with the +arpack flag it took less than a minute (because I had already installed Atlas).
I had a similar problem with MacPorts. I would recommend using HomeBrew instead. Here are the commands to install Octave on HomeBrew:
/usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
brew update
brew upgrade
brew install octave
I've installed Google Chrome on Hardy via the .deb file and would like to configure apt-get for automatic updates.
[I have another machine running Ubuntu Karmic where this works fine; apt-get knows the package as 'google-chrome'; I'm now using a Dell Mini 10 with Ubuntu 8.04 LTS installed]
As part of the .deb install, two entries have been added to the third- party software sources tab:
http://dl.google.com/linux/deb stable main
http://dl.google.com/linux/deb stable non-free main
However if I check for updates with either of these clicked, I get the following error:
Failed to fetch http://dl.google.com/linux/deb/dists/stable/Release Unable to find expected entry main/binary-lpia/Packages in Meta-index file (malformed Release file?)
There is a thread here which indicates others have had the same problem:
http://www.google.co.uk/support/forum/p/Chrome/thread?tid=097d103f87b49abe&hl=en
This references a further thread:
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=38608
which suggests the problem has been fixed.
Despite this I remain unable to get it to work, and none of the suggested workarounds seem to work either.
Ideas ? Thanks.
I think the issue here is that the Ubuntu installaion on your Dell Mini uses LPIA (Low Power Intel Architecture) and the Google Software Repository doesn't provide the "google-chrome" package for this architecture. Hence apt-get is giving you an error. You will have to do the updates manually using the "google-chrome" package for the i386 architecture.
On another note, the following thread provides details about repackaging an i386 package for LPIA. I hope this helps.
