Recently the Julia back-end was added to Cantor. It is good to see that new back-ends are being developed, but shouldn't this be an optional back-end ? At the moment during build, cmake is not even checking to see if Julia is actually installed and the julia development files are quite different from distro to distro. Looking at Neon, then it seems that the Julia files are not providing any development files, so that means that cantor can no longer be build as that it simply fails. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Build cantor on Neon 2. Build fails as that julia/julia.h can not be found 3.
Hi Raymond, this problem was detected some weeks ago. Currently Ivan, the julia backend developer, is working to fix it. Follow the work to fix it in [1]. [1] https://phabricator.kde.org/D2575
