BALL and SuSE 9
Question:
Answer:
There are some things to be fixed to get BALL to run under SuSE.
First, install flex and bison, gcc, qt3, qt3-devel, and qt3-devel-tools packages through YaST (and everything that is dependent on it and automatically proposed by YaST). Also make sure, that autoconf is installed.
SuSE provides two versions of QT: libqt and libqt-mt.
Unfortunately, OpenGL support is contained in the latter only. This can be fixed by adding --with-qt-mt as an
argument to configure.
In addition, SuSE often has a problem with the code generated by flex/bison. For this have a look at the corresponding entry in the FAQ.
Set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable (don't forget to include it in you .cshrc or .bashrc or you'll have to set this every time you want to run BALL!), then
make install
make test
cd APPLICATIONS/BALLVIEW
make
and you should be done.
