Unsuccessful cmake on master branch
colbrydi opened this issue · comments
I tried downloading a fresh copy of avida and install on our local HPC system. However, the CMake command returned the following missing file error:
cmake ..

CMake Warning (dev) at CMakeLists.txt:19 (ADD_SUBDIRECTORY):
The source directory
/mnt/home/colbrydi/monitors/avida/libs/apto

CMake does not support this case but it used to work accidentally and is
being allowed for compatibility.
Policy CMP0014 is not set: Input directories must have CMakeLists.txt. Run
"cmake --help-policy CMP0014" for policy details. Use the cmake_policy

The problem is that a git clone of avida doesn't clone the submodules needed by avida to compile. Run:
git submodule init
git submodule update
Then
./build_avida
Hi,
I get the following error when running git submodule update
$ git submodule init
Submodule 'documentation' (https://github.com/devosoft/avida.wiki.git) registered for path 'documentation'
Submodule 'libs/apto' (git://programerror.com/apto.git) registered for path 'libs/apto'
$ git submodule update
Cloning into 'documentation'...

programerror.com seems up and running but the git://programerror.com/apto.git seems not to be working. Is there an easy work around via the original GitHub repo?
Cheers,
Nic
Greetings-
I just did a fresh clone on my local machine and couldn't repeat the error. There is a version of the apto library (Avida's equivalent of the STL) hosted on github. If the problem persists, you can do the following:
In the avida directory edit the file .gitmodules to change the URL of the apto submodule to https://github.com/devosoft/apto.git (instead of its programerror URL)
Save and close the file. Then run the command "git submodule sync" followed by "git submodule update".
That should change the remote origin of the submodule from programerror to github.
[Make sure you have run "git submodule init" before running "git submodule sync".]
thanks. worked for me.
