Additional context
The vcpkg port for cgal switched from mpir to gmp, which caused #15881. Commit 7f400c4 is supposed to resolve this. However, after mpir is uninstalled, gmp won't install, which causes cgal to fail.

The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:

Neumann-A · 2021-01-30T17:48:16Z

according to #15957 gmp builds fine on osx and linux if you have the required system tools installed

cenit · 2021-01-30T21:57:21Z

I can build gmp fine on my Mac now.
Did you remember to brew install autoconf autoconf-archive ?

ShinYwings · 2021-01-31T11:30:53Z

Do you install "yasm-tool"?
I'm not sure it is the same in MacOS, but "gmp" needs yasm-tool in Windows.
Can you check the log in debug? eg) "vcpkg install --debug cgal"

Dejauxvue · 2021-02-01T14:43:47Z

I had the same issue, could fix it by manually installing yasm-tool:x86-windows and vs-yasm:x86-windows as the output stated:

no currently not.

Had the same issue on MacOS. I installed the autoreconf but it still didn't work. Here is the error report:

Then, there is an issue with autoreconf

zsxing@Zeshengs-Mac-mini CLionProjects % /usr/local/bin/autoreconf -vfi

autoreconf: 'configure.ac' or 'configure.in' is required

Neumann-A · 2021-02-02T09:29:20Z

If there is not configure.ac in /Users/zsxing/CLionProjects/vcpkg/buildtrees/gmp/src/gmp-6.2.1-f1768910a5.clean/ something is wrong with your extraction of the package. There clearly is a configure.ac

zsxing99 · 2021-02-03T03:30:10Z

If there is not configure.ac in /Users/zsxing/CLionProjects/vcpkg/buildtrees/gmp/src/gmp-6.2.1-f1768910a5.clean/ something is wrong with your extraction of the package. There clearly is a configure.ac

Yes, apparently I didn't know how autoconf works so I checked error logs and did some search. Finally, after installing automake and autoconf libtool additionally, I could build gmp

cdcseacave · 2021-02-15T15:58:37Z

I confirm, on ubuntu apt-get install autoconf is not enough either, but gmp installs after apt-get install automake autoconf libtool

Unfortunately one package later, mpfr fails with a the same error: Command failed: /usr/bin/autoreconf -vfi

autoreconf: Entering directory `.'
autoreconf: configure.ac: not using Gettext
autoreconf: running: aclocal --force -I m4

Neumann-A · 2021-02-15T16:15:21Z

configure:14309: error: possibly undefined macro: AX_PTHREAD

means you need to install autoconf-archive.

cdcseacave · 2021-02-15T17:31:27Z

thx, that helped, it moved the needle a bit, but still fails; this time I managed to figure it out by myself: after installing texinfo too it works

Go ahead and use HEAD of vcpkg, so add all the dependencies required as a result of microsoft/vcpkg#15956.

acgetchell · 2021-02-19T06:26:01Z

Even with the prerequisites installed, things are still screwy. You may be able to install the package, but cmake cannot find the package that was just installed. If I pin it back to the old version which worked, it does:

@acgetchell problem should be fixed on master. Sorry for the troubles. #16293

Thanks, I can confirm that vcpkg.cmake was fixed: https://github.com/acgetchell/CDT-plusplus/actions/runs/582487745

Also, installing autoconf, autoconf-archive, automake, libtool (or libtool-bin), texinfo, and yasm resolves the problems with installing gmp on macOS and Linux. However, I also build on Windows, particularly using AppVeyor.

AppVeyor (and many other systems) use chocolatey for their package manager, and I don't see a package for automake, libtool, or texinfo.

Have folks built this on Windows, and if so, how did you get the prerequisites installed?

cenit · 2021-02-19T20:36:53Z

you should not need any external dependency on windows. Can you point to a failed windows installation ci log?

cdcseacave · 2021-02-19T21:33:19Z

On windows I needed to use:

vcpkg install --recurse yasm-tool:x86-windows

which not only that should be done automatically, but it is counterintuitieve as I use x64

Check that AppVeyor can still build cgal to verify that microsoft/vcpkg#15956 is resolved.

The new version of CGAL builds with GMP rather than MPIR, but GMP won't install if MPIR is present. Hopefully resolves microsoft/vcpkg#15956

CGAL requires GMP which on Windows requires yasm-tool:x86-windows, even if you are using x64-windows. And vcpkg does not automatically know of this dependency. Thanks to microsoft/vcpkg#15956 (comment)

Thank you!

I can confirm that vcpkg.cmake again finds installed packages.

I can also confirm that with all of the guidance folks posted here, vcpkg builds CGAL on macOS, Linux, and Windows. To summarize:

macOS/Linux prerequisites:

build-essential (Linux only)
automake
autoconf
autoconf-archive
libtool (macOS) or libtool-bin (Linux)
texinfo
yasm
ninja (macOS) or ninja-build (Linux)

Windows prerequisites:

vcpkg install --recurse yasm-tool:x86-windows

Thanks again to all of the contributors in this thread!

Describe updated setup and installation. The CGAL formula changed from using MPIR to GMP, which requires new prerequisites, which folks kindly resolved in microsoft/vcpkg#15956. Also, mention Docker image for those wanting to use it. Finally, credit companies providing commercial-grade services to this project. Closes microsoft/vcpkg#15956

"vcpkg install --recurse yasm-tool:x86-windows" does not help me. I always get the error code 2 when I install gmp:x64-windows in visual studio console.
The call back I get is:
scripts/cmake/vcpkg_configure_make.cmake:838 (vcpkg_execute_required_process)
ports/gmp/portfile.cmake:85 (vcpkg_configure_make)
scripts/ports.cmake:147 (include)

I have also tried installing gmp:x64-windows-static or even x86-windows-static, which give me the same error messages.

By the way, I once tried installation of mpir which worked successfully, but then cgal still would not install. It seems to me that mpir was not recognized as a replacement for gmp and I don't know how to configure it if possible. Currently I have removed mpir from my installation. If I can get help about how to install cgal with mpir, I would be happy, since installing mpir is not a problem for me. Any suggestion about what can I do? Thanks in advance!

gmp no longer requires yasm since it was switched to use clang instead for compiling assembly files. So your issue with a current baseline is probably unrelated to this issue.

Open a new issue with the output and error logs?

Thanks. I have opened a new issue at : [gmp] build failure that prevents installation of [cgal] in windows #33445

Go ahead and use HEAD of vcpkg, so add all the dependencies required as a result of microsoft/vcpkg#15956.
