Hugin Compiling Fedora12

The printable version is no longer supported and may have rendering errors. Please update your browser bookmarks and please use the default browser print function instead.

To build enblend, enfuse, libpano and hugin, follow the instructions below. Adapted from OpenSuse compiling instructions.

Dependencies and prerequisites needed for Fedora 12

libjpeg-devel
wxGTK-devel
wxGTK
OpenEXR-devel
openEXR
libexiv2-devel
libtiff-devel
liblcms-devel

CMake

The version of CMake that comes with Fedora 12 is too old (it requires at least version 2.8). Get the latest version of CMake from http://www.cmake.org/cmake/resources/software.html

wget http://www.cmake.org/files/v2.8/cmake-2.8.5.tar.gz
tar xvfz cmake-2.8.5.tar.gz
cd cmake-2.8.5
./configure --prefix=/usr/local
make
/bin/su -c 'make install'

Boost

The version of the Boost libraries provided by Fedora 12 are too old (it requires at least version 1.40). Go to http://sourceforge.net/projects/boost/files/boost/ to get the latest version. Assuming that version 1.47.0 has been downloaded as boost_1_47_0.tar.bz2:

tar xvfj boost_1_47_0.tar.bz2
cd boost_1_47_0
./bootstrap.sh --prefix=/usr/local
./b2
/bin/su -c './b2 install'

libxmi

libxmi is required by Enblend and Enfuse below. There may be a way to use an already installed version (or YUM package), but I haven't figured it out.

wget 'ftp://mirror.anl.gov/pub/gnu/libxmi/libxmi-1.2.tar.gz'
tar xvfz libxmi-1.2.tar.gz
cd libxmi-1.2
./configure

If you get an error about "checking host system type... Invalid configuration" and it aborts with "configure: error: libtool configure failed", you can delete config.sub and sym-link a later automake's config.sub:

mv config.sub config.sub.old
ln -s /usr/share/automake-1.11/config.sub .
./configure

Then continue with the compiling:

make
/bin/su -c 'make install'

Enblend and Enfuse (cvs)

cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@enblend.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/enblend login
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@enblend.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/enblend co -P enblend
cd enblend
make -f Makefile.cvs
./configure
make
/bin/su -c 'make install'

libpano13

mkdir -p /usr/src/panotools/trunk
cd /usr/src/panotools/trunk
svn co https://panotools.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/panotools/trunk/libpano libpano13
cd libpano13
sh ./bootstrap
make
/bin/su -c 'make install install-data-am'

Tclap

Download Tclap tarball from http://sourceforge.net/projects/tclap/files/

tar xvfz tclap-1.2.1.tar.gz
cd tclap-1.2.1
./configure
make
make check
/bin/su -c 'make install'

Hugin

The CMake variable Boost_USE_MULTITHREADED below tells CMake not to look for the multithreaded Boost libraries; otherwise it will find the Fedora 12 libraries and try to link but they are too old and lack some functionality required by hugin and celeste.

hg clone http://hugin.hg.sourceforge.net:8000/hgroot/hugin/hugin hugin
cd hugin
mkdir mybuild
cd mybuild
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local -DBoost_LIBRARY_DIRS:FILEPATH=/usr/local/lib -DBoost_USE_MULTITHREADED=OFF ../
make
/bin/su -c 'make install'

autopano-sift-C

Needed for automatic control point generation, restricted by software patents in some countries.

hg clone http://hugin.hg.sourceforge.net:8000/hgroot/hugin/autopano-sift-C autopano-sift-C
cd autopano-sift-C
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local ..
make
/bin/su -c 'make install'
