Not installing on Ubuntu 20.04

[Dries]

Hello,

Does the current version of the RoboCup server work on Ubuntu 20.04 or higher? When I install the RoboCup server using a Ubuntu 18.04 image it seems to work well. The Dockerfile is below:
Dockerfile_18.04.txt

I, however, need the RoboCup server to work on a more recent version of Ubuntu e.g. 20.04. This is needed to allow access to the latest neural network packages (Tensorflow and PyTorch). A tried to build this Docker image (with only the Ubuntu version changed):

Dockerfile_20.04.txt

However I get a /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lrcssclangparser error when installing the RoboCup server. Is there anything I can do to fix this problem?

Thank you in advance.

hello,
have you tried to add
/usr/local/lib to
/etc/ld.so.conf
and then ldconfig it ?

Hello,

Thank you for your feedback. I went in a different direction and got all the latest deep learning libraries to work in Ubuntu 18.04.

This is still an issue on ubuntu 20.04. Full Stack trace:

The same scripts work on ubuntu 18.04. @mroa4 What exactly do you mean by have you tried to add /usr/local/lib to /etc/ld.so.conf and then ldconfig it ?

I have updated /etc/ld.so.conf to be like this:

include /etc/ld.so.conf.d/*.conf
/usr/local/lib

I have also tried include /usr/local/lib/*.conf , but I don't think there is any conf in /usr/local/lib/.

This problem is caused by automake in Ubuntu 20.04.
I recommend using a rerelesed package from the Releases section.
Download rcssserver-16.0.1.tar.gz, extract it, configure, build and install.

If you'd like to use the latest source tree, please modify the following part in src/Makefile.am.

Before:

rcssserver_LDADD = \
        -lrcssclangparser \
        -lrcssconfparser \

After:

rcssserver_LDADD = \
        librcssclangparser.la \
        -lrcssconfparser \

This fix will be committed soon.

Fixed on the master branch.
