[SOLVED] "No rule to make target `/usr/lib/libGL.so' etc."

Post by bigglesworth »

I've done a fresh install of Ubuntu 11.04 amd64 and the ATI Catalyst proprietary display driver for Linux x86_64. I've installed all current dependencies to be able to compile the current Manasource client for TMW from git.

Code: Select all

git clone git://gitorious.org/mana/mana.git mana
cd mana
cmake -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$HOME/mana .
make
My only problem was the following error:

Code: Select all

milkchan@natty64:~/mana$ make
[  3%] Built target enet
make[2]: *** No rule to make target `/usr/lib/libGL.so', needed by `src/mana'.  Stop.
make[1]: *** [src/CMakeFiles/mana.dir/all] Error 2
make: *** [all] Error 2
milkchan@natty64:~/mana$
The error is from a broken link to libGL.so. The solution is to delete the broken link and then recreate the link. This has been happening every time I do a fresh Ubuntu install, but I always forget the link I need to repair. This needs to be done only once for each fresh OS install.

Code: Select all

milkchan@natty64:~$ sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 /usr/lib/mesa/libGL.so
[sudo] password for milkchan: 
ln: creating symbolic link `/usr/lib/mesa/libGL.so': File exists
milkchan@natty64:~$ sudo rm /usr/lib/mesa/libGL.so
milkchan@natty64:~$ sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 /usr/lib/mesa/libGL.so
milkchan@natty64:~$
After fixing the broken link, the client will compile and install.

Code: Select all

milkchan@natty64:~/mana$ make

Hopefully, this post will help someone other than myself in the future.

You should tell them.

Hi jaxad0127,

I guess I was selfishly using the forum to document a bookmark for myself. I bought the ATI card primarily to play games in Windows with the knowledge that ATI/AMD provided functioning, although proprietary, Linux drivers. I meant no harm towards TMW/Manasource, Ubuntu, or AMD.

I'll tell both AMD & Canonical. Help point me to the guilty party? I know that within AMD's Linux driver download web page is a link for driver feedback, but with Canonical, I have no direct idea where to go. I'll start with AMD.

UPDATE: Over one year later, the issue still exists and the solution is slightly different. This time it's a fresh install of Lubuntu 12.04.1 and proprietary AMD drivers.

Error output:

Code: Select all

milkchan@pc1-lubuntu64:~/mana/src$ make
[  3%] Built target enet
make[2]: *** No rule to make target `/usr/lib/libGL.so', needed by `src/mana'.  Stop.
make[1]: *** [src/CMakeFiles/mana.dir/all] Error 2
make: *** [all] Error 2
milkchan@pc1-lubuntu64:~/mana/src$
The problem this time was that libGL.so has a new home. Solution:

Code: Select all

milkchan@pc1-lubuntu64:~/mana/src$ sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/mesa/libGL.so.1 /usr/lib/libGL.so
milkchan@pc1-lubuntu64:~/mana/src$ 
Desired result:

Code: Select all

milkchan@pc1-lubuntu64:~/mana/src$ make
[  3%] Built target enet
Linking CXX executable mana
[ 97%] Built target mana
[ 97%] Generating de.gmo

This time I'd like to credit this blog post for the solution.

Are you sure you have the opengl dev packages installed?

The specific package appears to be libgl1-mesa-dev (you always link to mesa at buildtime and it selects the right one at runtime)

This should be pulled in by 'apt-get build-dep mana'.

You mention the AMD website. If you got drivers from there, this is highly likely to cause problems. You should *always* use the packages supplied by your distribution; they are available in the 'restricted' section of the archive.

It has been a while so I can't give precise installation directions (I'm on Debian Wheezy now, which is different enough in this area), but I recall there's some sort of "system hardware" program that takes care of giving you the choice of installing nonfree hardware drivers. I had an ATI card when I first switched to Linux (it was Ubuntu) and I never had any problem figuring out how to do that.

Yes, I am using the drivers from AMD's website, not from Ubuntu's "Additional Drivers" program. I don't remember when or under which distribution I picked up that habit. It's been years now. The next time I re-install Ubuntu, I'll install the restricted drivers from within. I do have the libgl1-mesa-dev package installed.

From apt-get dev-build mana:
