I struggled to get the openbr run properly on the ubuntu, here is the unit test result,

Errors while running CTest
make: *** [test] Error 8

With refer to some threads such as #86, someone said the QT4 would induce the problem.
So I get rid of the QT4.

I've thought this could result from the different ubuntu version from the guidelines (14.04), so I've tried on 13.04, but got the same result.

Could someone give clues to trace this problem?

I've tried on ubuntu 13, 14 as well as OSX, the same exception is got. This appears this is problem of the head of tree. Could someone share which version is working?

Today I've followed the instructions for Ubuntu 14.04 and I get almost the same results as the OP.
