compiling issue

[pc2013]

Hello

I am trying to install FaceTracker on Ubuntu 11.10. Following the instructions, the opencv was correctly installed.

When make FaceTracker, I got the following errors:

g++ -MM -MT src/lib/IO.o -MF src/lib/IO.d -Wextra -Wall -pedantic-errors -arch x86_64 -O3 -I/usr/local/include -Iinclude/ src/lib/IO.cc
g++: error: x86_64: No such file or directory
g++: error: unrecognized option ‘-arch’
make: *** [src/lib/IO.o] Error 1

If removing "-arch x86_64", there are many linking errors.

BTW, there seems to be a type in the readme.md file, "OPECV_PATH" may should be "OPENCV_PATH".

Thanks,
Peter
ARCH_FLAGS=-arch x86_64

It turns out the -arch flag is specific to the Apple-specific version of gcc. The equivalent flag to compile in linux is either -m32 or -m64, depending on your architecture. I got it to compile by editing the Makefile, changing the line "ARCH_FLAGS= -arch x86_64'" to "ARCH_FLAGS=-m64", for 64 bits architecture.

Thanks for the note. I modified the Makefile, and compiled all the C++ files to .o files. But now when generating bin/FaceTracker, I have a lot linking errors to opencv functions.

My machine runs Ubuntu, and all the opencv library files can be found at /usr/local/lib. I don't know why g++ cannot find and link to them. My opencv sample programs can compile just fine.

Have you tried compiling FaceTracker on Ubuntu ?

Thanks,

I built it in debian unstable, and I didn't get any other errors while
building besides that. Though I did have a build of OpenCV compiled without
video capture support, so it took me a couple of tries to figure it out and
recompile OpenCV correctly.

In your case, it might be worth a shot recompiling OpenCV including any
additional features that seem related to your missing libraries. I like to
use cmake-gui to make the building process less painful, you can find it in
the ubuntu repos with a search for cmake. Hard to tell more without looking
at your Makefile and the error output from make, though.

cheers,

After getting the same problem, some research into this issue revealed that starting from Ubuntu 11.10, libraries must be placed behind objects needing them. For example, g++ pkg-config --cflags opencv easyprog.cpp pkg-config --libs opencv -o easyprog. I also attached the modified Makefile if you would find it useful:

OPENCV_PATH=/usr/local

Thanks, I can compile it now.
