Error compiling Scons / Doom 3 on ubuntu

Question

When I run the scons command from the neo folder in the extracted source tree, I get the following output:

nroach44@ASUS-P5G43T-U1110 :~/Source/doom3engine/neo$ scons scons: Reading SConscript files ... Loading build configuration from site.conf: BUILD_GAMEPAK='0' JOBS='1' DEDICATED='0' SILENT='0' GL_HARDLINK='0' ID_MCHECK='2' BUILD_ROOT='build' ALSA='1' CC='gcc' TARGET_D3XP='1' TARGET_CORE='1' BUILD='debug' TARGET_GAME='1' TARGET_MONO='0' BASEFLAGS='' CXX='g++' NOCURL='0' DEBUG_MEMORY='0' IDNET_HOST='' LIBC_MALLOC='1' ID_NOLANADDRESS='0' TARGET_DEMO='0' AttributeError: 'SConsEnvironment' object has no attribute 'M4': File "/home/nroach44/Source/doom3engine/neo/SConstruct", line 422: SConscript( g_build + '/core/glimp/sys/scons/SConscript.gl' ) File "/usr/lib/scons/SCons/Script/SConscript.py", line 614: return method(*args, **kw) File "/usr/lib/scons/SCons/Script/SConscript.py", line 551: return _SConscript(self.fs, *files, **subst_kw) File "/usr/lib/scons/SCons/Script/SConscript.py", line 260: exec _file_ in call_stack[-1].globals File "/home/nroach44/Source/doom3engine/neo/build/debug/core/glimp/sys/scons/SConscript.gl", line 69: gl_env.M4( i_m4, i_m4 + '.m4' ) 

I can’t say if he missed something, didn’t refer to something or something. It also comes from a fresh excerpt in a new folder.

Thanks!

Answer 1

Try installing the m4 macro - maybe scons looking for it, and is this a way to report missing tools?

Answer 2

sudo apt-get install m4

what fixed problem for me ...

then I got:

scons: read SConscript files. scons: Building goals ... scons: creating related objects AF.os -c -fPIC -pipe -Wall -Wno-unknown-pragmas -fmessage-length = 0 -fpermissive -fvisibility = hidden -m32 -g -O1 -D_DEBUG -fno-strict-aliasing -D_D3XP -DCTF -DGAME_DLL d3xp /AF.cpp The file is included from d3xp /../ idlib / precompiled. h: 142: 0, from d3xp / AF.cpp: 29: d3xp /../ idlib /../ renderer / qgl.h: 51:19: fatal error: GL / gl.h: no such file or directory compilation completed. brothers: *** [build / debug / d3xp / d3xp / AF.os] Error 1 scons: building completed due to errors.

fixed:

sudo apt-get install libgl1-mesa-dev

it turned out:

fixed:

sudo apt-get install libxxf86vm-dev

it turned out:

fixed:

sudo apt-get install libopenal-dev

it turned out:

fixed:

sudo apt-get install libasound2-dev

it turned out:

/ usr / bin / ld: cannot find -lz collect2: ld returned 1 scons exit status: *** [build / debug / core / sys / scons / doom] Error 1 scons: building completed due to errors.

fixed:

sudo apt-get install g ++ - multilib gcc-multilib sudo apt-get install zlib1g-dev

and finally:

Install file: "build / debug / core / sys / scons / doom" as "doom.x86" Install file: "build / debug / game / sys / scons / libgame.so" as "gamex86-base.so" Install file: "build / debug / d3xp / sys / scons / libgame.so" as "gamex86-d3xp.so": completed construction goals.
