Hello everybody,
just to let you know: After gathering from the recent thread that the situation with frescobaldi dependencies and conflicting versions of python would be easier to handle with Ubuntu 17, I tried getting it to work on a pristine 17.10 live system – unsucessfully, with another weird bug (?) preventing to build sip from source. Here’s all the details: https://github.com/wbsoft/python-poppler-qt5/issues/14#issuecomment-353697574 Best, Simon
Hello all,
by chance I just had the opportunity to sit in front of a computer with a freshly installed Ubuntu Mate 17.10.
Although LilyPond isn't on the list of things to be installed on that computer I couldn't resist ...
I went through the instructions on https://github.com/wbsoft/frescobaldi/wiki/Running-Frescobaldi-3-From-Source-Git-(Linux) - and to my great surprise I didn't have any issues.
I installed the dependencies with
sudo apt install git python3-pyqt5 python3-pyqt5.qtsvg python3-poppler-qt5 python3-pyqt5.qtwebkit
(note that the qtwebkit package was missing from the instructions (and I have updated them accordingly))
then cloned the repositories of Frescobaldi and python-ly,
added python-ly to PYTHONPATH
and could immediately invoke Frescobaldi with `python3 path/to/frescobaldi`
including the music view and the SVG viewer.
Just to let everybody know.
Best
Urs
