[SOLVED] Fedora linux

Post by janvydra »

Hello,

I would like to run jamovi on Fedora linux. What would I need to compile jamovi from source code?

Thank you
Jan

hey jan,

yes, i should definitely put together a proper build guide for jamovi.

there's a guide to the project structure here, and that should be a good starting point:

https://dev.jamovi.org/info_project-structure.html

we do use a lot of different technologies, so it's not the easiest thing to build unfortunately.

are you thinking of building it for your own use? or for publishing it in a repo?

kind regards

jonathon

Hi jonathon,

If I'm able to get jamovi running on fedora, I will try to make a rpm package.
I started from the project structure, now Im wrestling with compilation of engine. I got past protobuf 3 and nanomsg, now I cant figure out where to put or how to compile rinside dependency.

Thanks
j.

Best regards
Jan

good job on protobuf and nanomsg!

so RInside is an R package. the Makefile expects it to be placed in

Code: Select all

/usr/lib/R/library/RInside
or

Code: Select all

/usr/lib/R/site-library/RInside
but let me know if this isn't appropriate for fedora, and i'll try and make it more general.

cheers!

@janvydra

many thanks for your effort - would you mind sharing the script you used to build jamovi for fedora?

we now provide a tar ball which may/should work on fedora (would love to have feedback on it). see here: https://www.jamovi.org/download.html
