Hi I decided to try Vavoom to see what all the fuss is about, but I can't compile it. As far as I can tell I have all the required packages, including development versions. Output of cmake: [spoiler:pl8fpk3s]

[/spoiler:pl8fpk3s] So far, no problem. But there's also a line which worries me a bit: "-- Looking for pthread_create in pthreads - not found". I can't tell what it means and how serious it is. Then it breaks at around 14%, after

You can skip building of launcher by adding -DENABLE_LAUNCHER=NO to cmake. After looking at wxWidgets header files I have impression that it tries to compile with GUI disabled.

What version of wxwidgets does Vavoom require ? I have a hunch 2.6 from Debian stable may be too old.

2.6 should be fine. What is the output of

wx-config --cflags

The output is:

-I/usr/lib/wx/include/base-unicode-release-2.6 -I/usr/include/wx-2.6 -DwxUSE_GUI=0 -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -D_LARGE_FILES -DNO_GCC_PRAGMA

[quote="b0rsuk":3331t5x9] -DwxUSE_GUI=0 Here's the problem.

[quote="Janis Legzdinsh":9f31pnxb][quote="b0rsuk":9f31pnxb] -DwxUSE_GUI=0 Here's the problem. Thanks. I don't know much about GUI development. I thought I had all the needed wx packages, including dev ones. It seems Vavoom launcher uses wxgtk. Long story short: I installed libwxgtk2.6-dev and it compiled.
