Hi fellow reprappers,
Has anyone been able to run slic3r on Linux Mint 17?
When I follow the instructions as on the slic3r website (https://github.com/alexrj/Slic3r/wiki/Running-Slic3r-from-git-on-GNU-Linux) I get stuck on the actual build of the application:
perl Build.PL
The instructions says do not build as root, but if I run it as is the compiler says it does not have permissions (creating directories) and thus fails. So I run
sudo perl Build.PL instead. It ends up saying:
FAIL
! Installing ./xs failed. See /home/UserName/.cpanm/work/1494587822.18562/build.log for details. Retry with --force to force install it.
The XS/C++ code failed to compile, aborting
And the log file states:
Building and testing Slic3r-XS-0.01
-> FAIL Installing ./xs failed.
I have tried different versions of perl using perlbrew and citrus perl. I have also read most of the comments on github but can not get past that error:
The XS/C++ code failed to compile, aborting
Does anyone know what I must do to get this to compile correctly? I have also tried two of the precompiled versions from here: [
dl.slic3r.org]
but the error on both tries states that it can't find: .../Slic3r/local-lib/lib/perl5/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/auto/Slic3r/XS/XS.so
ANy help or direction would be appreciated.
Thanks
