Re: CMake fails to find wxWidget in a fresh Ubuntu 14.04 install when trying to build KiCad

  Thread Previous • Date Previous • • Thread Next 
Hello guys,

Thanks for your help, but it didn't worked.
It's nonsense for me, wxWidget 2.8 have been removed, and wx-config --version returns the right version:
purebasic@purebasic-VirtualBox:~/build/kicad/kicad.bzr/build$ wx-config --version 
3.0.2
I also made a link to the wxWidget includes using sudo ln -sv usr/include/wx-3.0-unofficial/wx wx. 
So maybe the old link is still there ?
Cmake looks in the wx-2.8 folder, and it looks like the path is hard-coded somewhere: 
purebasic@purebasic-VirtualBox:~/build/kicad/kicad.bzr/build$ cmake ../
CMake Error at CMakeModules/FindwxWidgets.cmake:868 (file):
  file Internal CMake error when trying to open file:
*  /usr/include/wx-2.8/wx/version.h for reading.*
Call Stack (most recent call first):
  CMakeLists.txt:411 (find_package)
I finally found a get around: I made a wx-2.8 directory and copied the ./wx-3.0-unofficial/wx folder in it. It worked ! 
KiCad is building right now :D

See you ;)

Hi Benoit,
Just expanding upon Wayne's answer, the way you would remove wxWidgets 2.8.12 development package on Ubuntu would be 

sudo apt-get remove wxwidgets2.8-dev

or

sudo aptitude remove wxwidgets2.8-dev
I do not recommend modifying the CMake files to remove features. There are command line switches to turn on and off nearly everything in the build files. Especially as a beginner looking to start development, I think it is best to modify the build behavior with the command line switches as compared to modifying the file.

    Add -DwxWidgits_CONFIG_EXECUTABLE=/path/to/the/correct/wx-config when
    running cmake.  Otherwise, the cmake module that finds wxWidgets will
    find the first one it discovers which in you case is 2.8.12.  The
    other
    option it to remove the the wxWidgets 2.8.12 development package.
