zyGrib

pycke wrote:Hi,

I tried to install zyGrib under Ubuntu, but fail to get the program up and running.

I downloaded the files, unpacked them and then started a terminal session in the directory in which the files were unpacked.

I then entered the command "make", but got the following error

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lqwt-qt4
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[1]: *** [zyGrib] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/pycke/Downloads/zyGrib-5.0.2/src'
make: *** [zyGrib] Error 2

I then tried to follow the instruction specific to Ubuntu natty and entered the following command

deb http://doc.hausser.ch/debpackages ubuntu-dha natty

No command 'deb' found, did you mean:
Command 'debc' from package 'devscripts' (main)
Command 'derb' from package 'libicu-dev' (main)
Command 'dab' from package 'bsdgames' (universe)
Command 'debi' from package 'devscripts' (main)
Command 'xdeb' from package 'xdeb' (universe)
deb: command not found

I m new to Linux. Can someone please guide me and help how to get zyGrid up and running on my Linux Ubuntu PC ?

Many thanks,

Bart Pycke

• 1. Copy and paste the code above in your favourite text editor, save it as zyGrib-5.0.6-qwt-qt4.patch in the zyGrib-5.0.6 directory (the one you unpacked from zyGrib-5.0.6.tgz).
  2. cd to the zyGrib-5.0.6 directory in your terminal session.
  3. Type: patch -p1 <zyGrib-5.0.6-qwt-qt4.patch Before running make!
  4. Output from this command should read: patching file src/zyGrib.pro
