Description Stefan Endrullis 2018-01-24 08:34:21 UTC
Today I tried to compile Krusader from source and got an error while running cmake:
CMake Error at ActionMan/CMakeLists.txt:8 (ki18n_wrap_ui):
  Unknown CMake command "ki18n_wrap_ui".

Here is the full shell output:

CMake Warning (dev) in CMakeLists.txt:
  No cmake_minimum_required command is present.  A line of code such as

    cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.9)

  should be added at the top of the file.  The version specified may be lower
  if you wish to support older CMake versions for this project.  For more
  information run "cmake --help-policy CMP0000".
This warning is for project developers.  Use -Wno-dev to suppress it.

Comment 1 Martin Kostolný 2018-01-24 17:07:35 UTC
It seems you are missing a package "ki18n". Probably "libkf5i18n-dev" in Ubuntu.
Comment 2 Stefan Endrullis 2018-01-24 17:09:38 UTC
libkf5i18n-dev is already installed in version 5.38.0-0ubuntu1.
Comment 3 Martin Kostolný 2018-01-24 17:14:05 UTC
Oh, sorry. I can see the problem now. You are calling:

cmake ../krusader

instead of:

cmake ..

So to be precise - please try this command from your build folder:

cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local/
Comment 4 Stefan Endrullis 2018-01-24 17:20:17 UTC
$ cd krusader/krusader-build
$ cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local/
CMake Error: The source "/home/stefan/software/krusader/CMakeLists.txt" does not match the source "/home/stefan/software/krusader/krusader/CMakeLists.txt" used to generate cache.  Re-run cmake with a different source directory.
Comment 5 Stefan Endrullis 2018-01-24 17:44:30 UTC
Ah, I forgot to clear the cache.  You're right.  With ".." it works.
