Building on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS

[beniz]

This is the placeholder for information regarding the building of deepdetect on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (expected future reference platform).

Build status: successful, tested with Caffe back-end on CPU

Thanks to @MartinThoma the correct way of doing it is below:

$ sudo apt-get remove libcurlpp0
$ cd [wherever]
$ git clone https://github.com/jpbarrette/curlpp.git
$ cd curlpp
$ cmake .
$ sudo make install
$ cd [back to deepdetect]
$ make clean
$ make

Existing difficulties with 15.10 (#29) appear to have been fixed, but for the version of curlpp that is still broken (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/33420631/link-errors-with-curlpp). The fix remains to rebuild curlpp from https://github.com/datacratic/curlpp:

EDIT: fixed.

On the way to make 16.04 LTS a supported platform, here are some install info.

• Nvidia Cuda + driver install:
• Download Cuda 8 run file + Cuda 8 patch run file, when installing do not install the default driver

./cuda_8.0.27_linux.run
./cuda_8.0.27.1_linux.run

• Install driver for Maxell architecture, get driver from http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us

sudo ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-367.44.run

From there, nvidia-smi should work. It is possible to use deviceQuery from the Cuda samples to make sure the device is working properly.

Note: good tutorial is here: https://github.com/BVLC/caffe/wiki/GeForce-GTX-1080,---CUDA-8.0,---Ubuntu-16.04,---Caffe

require packages autoconf and libtool-bin to build curlcpp from sources on ubuntu 16.04 LTS

quick info:

The bug reported by http://stackoverflow.com/questions/33420631/link-errors-with-curlpp is now fixed by version 0.7.4 on cURLpp's official github repository: https://github.com/jpbarrette/curlpp. I hope that ubuntu will update their package to include new versions.

@jpbarrette thanks for the heads up!

based on 0.8.0 version, the step is:
git clone https://github.com/jpbarrette/curlpp
cmake .
sudo make install

Here is how you fix the curlpp problem on Ubuntu 16.04:

$ sudo apt-get remove libcurlpp0
$ cd [wherever]
$ git clone https://github.com/jpbarrette/curlpp.git
$ cd curlpp
$ cmake .
$ sudo make install
$ cd [back to deepdetect]
$ make clean
$ make

Had same error, thanks for provided solution @MartinThoma. I think this should be in DD installing page https://deepdetect.com/overview/installing/
