Hello and welcome,


For questions and answers about YADE use, we're using a launchpad website [*], could you please re-ask your question there ? The "yade-users" mailing list is rather for general announcements.


Thanks !


PS: in the meantime, yes I think that "Gl1_Sphere" is related to GUI, and I also think that PyQt4 (or PyQt5) is a required package, see https://yade-dem.org/doc/installation.html#prerequisites.

Subject: [Yade-users] Yade installation questions


Hello,



I have a couple of Yade installation related questions, please.



I have just finished installing Yade from source on our RedHat 6.3 cluster. That is, to be more precise, I installed Yade with the GUI component switched off. The build was eventually successful and I was then able to run both "yade -check" and "yade -test" without any issues. On the other hand when I tested a script provided by the user I noticed that my Yade could not find the Gl1_Sphere attribute/command. Is that because I build Yade with GUI=OFF?



I then attempted to build the GUI version. The build (make) process completed successfully, however I found that "make install" failed looking for a file called "img_rc.py". I cannot find any trace of this file in the Yale source distribution, and so I have no idea how to progress the GUI build. In this respect I have installed qt v4, however not PyQt4 - is the latter package required?



I am new to Yade and so I would appreciate any relevant advice from the community, please.



Best regards,

David
