Installing Mira 4.

[susanklein]

Hi,

ok I'm feeling very stupid, I have literally spent a whole day tryin gto install Mira 4 with no luck.

I installed Boost libraries with the fisrt instructions i found (none on boost website helpfully):

http://blog.jedf.com/2012/06/installing-boost-libraries-150-on.html

but that put them in the wrong directory for the mira compiler.. so
./configure --with-boost-libdir=/home/susan/usr/lib

does not work.. always get an error:
configure: error: Stopping here as BOOST thread lib must be available at this stage. Sorry.

Does anyone PLEASE know how to install Mira...???? seems that a program that can't be installed easily is pretty useless..!!

Thanks,

S.

As MIRA4 install pages says it will only work with fully installed BOOST libraries so try

$ sudo apt-get install libboost-all-dev

Have you considered getting the pre-compiled binaries and using them? http://sourceforge.net/projects/mira...s/MIRA/stable/

Hi, erm.. can you point me to where they are? I can only see Mira 4 here:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/mira-assembler/files/latest/download?source=files

The manual says there is a bin folder, but there isn't one in there. I'll try and download it again.

thanks.

Ok, I got another error, saying 'Flex' wasn't installed..

Then got:
"Ooops, we might encounter some problems in compilation/linking. Please give
it a try and report success or failure."

Then, predictably, make fails with a lot of errors.

Is there a prize for getting this installed?

Pre-compiled binaries are here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/mira...s/MIRA/stable/

Sorry about not linking the correct files before.
