Description Adam Garami 2013-01-19 18:11:16 UTC
Trying to compile kstars from source (git://anongit.kde.org/kstars) but I always get the following error message:

....

WCSLIB 4.16 is installed on the system from source but previously I've tried to use the wcslib packages included with Ubunut 12.04 and I got the same error above. Please help!

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr
2. make
Actual Results:  
See above.


Using ftp://ftp.atnf.csiro.au/pub/software/wcslib/wcslib.tar.bz2 on Xubuntu 12.04 (3.2.0-36-generic). WCSLIB is compiled with the following options: --prefix=/usr --with-cfitsioinc --with-cfitsiolib --with-pgplotinc --with-pgplotlib

Comment 2 Nicolas Dubuit 2013-02-12 13:12:30 UTC
I also had this problem.

I could build it by adding (see attached diff)
    target_link_libraries(KStarsLib ${WCSLIB_LIBRARIES})
at line 481 of kstars/CMakeLists.txt

Could you please confirm that the above fix works for you?

Dear Nicolas,

your fix worked! I was able to compile kstars without errors! Thank you!

Ok, sorry for that!

Thanks for the report and the patch. The target for the library was incorrect.
The committed patch is slightly different. This should fix this bug.
