Description Colin Griffith 2019-04-22 22:10:26 UTC
The 'cantor' package is at version:
4:19.04.0-0xneon+18.04+bionic+build26

These other versions are available in the repository as well, for downgrading:
4:19.04.0-0xneon+18.04+bionic+build25
4:19.04.0-0xneon+18.04+bionic+build24
4:18.12.3-0xneon+18.04+bionic+build23


However, the repository has ONLY the following version of 'cantor-dev' available:
4:18.12.3-0xneon+18.04+bionic+build23

This means that it cannot be installed without also downgrading all of the Cantor packages. Downgrading all of the Cantor packages is the only workaround I can find, though I haven't really tried much to find other workarounds.

Why do you need this package?

> Why do you need this package?

I was attempting to compile the latest version of Labplot2, and it currently seems to want some of the Cantor header files.

The specific message it gives is:
> src/backend/cantorWorksheet/CantorWorksheet.h:33:10: fatal error: cantor/session.h: No such file or directory

The fact that the CMakeLists.txt file doesn't attempt to locate the Cantor development files first is an entirely separate bug, and since I'm attempting to build from the 'master' branch it's one I don't think requires actually reporting. I'm sure the devs know and just haven't gotten around to it.
Comment 3 Jonathan Riddell 2019-04-22 22:38:58 UTC
There's a few build-deps that labplot seems to be missing.  The cmake output from labplot doesn't give a list of these which means our tools don't pick up that they are missing.
Comment 4 Colin Griffith 2019-04-22 22:41:48 UTC
It's been quite a while since I tried building it. I can't get far enough in the compilation process to determine other dev packages I might be missing. Either way, that's how I noticed that this particular one was outdated.

We compile labplot of course in neon
https://build.neon.kde.org/job/bionic_release-lts_extras_labplot_bin_amd64/10/consoleFull

If you want the latest labplot it is there to install.  But looking at that build log the cmake output suggests there's stuff missing so I've made a todo item to
