folder not found when building about glfw.jl HOT 8 CLOSED

probably can close since this is now using Binary Builder

from glfw.jl.

It's probably cmake missing. But why is Homebrew trying to build it rather than using a precompiled binary?

from glfw.jl.

That'd be the next question ;) I opened an issue about this:
JuliaPackaging/Homebrew.jl#172 (comment)
The road to a completely hassle free GLVisualize installation doesn't come easy, it seems :P

from glfw.jl.

I just ran into this, as well -- installing cmake fixed it. Also I had to install the following packages in order to get GLFW.jl to build (Ubuntu 16.10):

cmake
libxrandr-dev
libxinerama-dev
libxcursor-dev

Might be handy to include these in installation instructions for Ubuntu:

sudo apt-get install cmake libxrandr-dev libxinerama-dev libxcursor-dev

from glfw.jl.

Ran into this also (on Linux). If you want to supply platform binaries I've had pretty good luck setting up a mini "build farm" using docker, so users don't need to have a build environment on their system:

https://github.com/JuliaAudio/RingBuffers.jl/tree/master/deps/src

build.sh is the top-level script that spawns the various docker boxes and runs the makefile in each one. I just run it locally to generate all the library builds that I distribute in deps/usr/lib

from glfw.jl.

That sounds a lot like how Bindeps2 is supposed to work... Maybe we can just switch over when it's released :)

from glfw.jl.

I ran into this error as well. sudo apt-get install cmake libxrandr-dev libxinerama-dev libxcursor-dev solved it on Ubuntu 16.04

from glfw.jl.

I added a note to the README: #115
