Trouble-Shooting On Building Awesome

Jan 20, 2015
Technology

When building Awesome following the tutorial of following URL, I met following error:

I installed xcb-proto, but libxcb all the same print "No package 'xcb-proto' found"

So the trouble shooting should be done like following, first we found the directory which contains xcb-proto.pc via:

$ cd /usr/
$ find . -name "xcb-proto.pc"

The result indicates this file locates in the /usr/lib/pkgconfig.
Easily we add this directory into our PKG_CONFIG_PATH, via following commands:

$ export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$PKG_CONFIG_PATH:/usr/lib/pkgconfig

Now continue to do the configuration, everything will be OK.
But we got the build error in make, like following:

/usr/bin/python ./c_client.py -p /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages /usr/share/xcb/dri2.xml
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./c_client.py", line 1041, in <module>
    module.generate()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/xcbgen/state.py", line 101, in generate
    item.out(name)
  File "./c_client.py", line 950, in c_request
    _c_accessors(self.reply, name + ('reply',), name)

This may be python version error, change it to python2.7?
no. We just installed the libxcb-1.8.tar.bz2 for solving this problem.

libxdg-basedir should be downloaded from following url:
http://nevill.ch/libxdg-basedir/downloads/

So many gaps , we need to do this:

# wget http://nevill.ch/libxdg-basedir/downloads/libxdg-basedir-latest.tar.gz
# tar xzvf libxdg-basedir-latest.tar.gz 
# cd libxdg-basedir-1.2.0/
# ./configure --prefix=/usr
# make && make install
# yum install libpng
# yum install libpng-devel
# ./configure --prefix=/usr && make
# yum install pixman pixman-devel
# wget http://cairographics.org/snapshots/cairo-1.9.12.tar.gz
# tar xzvf cairo-1.9.12.tar.gz 
# cd cairo-1.9.12/
# ./configure --prefix=/usr && make
# make install
# yum install glib2-devel
# yum install gdk-pixbuf2-devel
# yum install startup-notification startup-notification-devel readline readline-devel
# wget http://xcb.freedesktop.org/dist/xcb-util-0.3.8.tar.gz
# tar xzvf xcb-util-0.3.8.tar.gz 
# cd xcb-util-0.3.8/
# ./configure --prefix=/usr
# make && make install
# wget http://xcb.freedesktop.org/dist/xcb-util-cursor-0.1.0.tar.bz2
# tar xjvf xcb-util-cursor-0.1.0.tar.bz2 
# cd xcb-util-cursor-0.1.0/
# ./configure --prefix=/usr && make && make install
# wget http://xcb.freedesktop.org/dist/xcb-util-wm-0.4.0.tar.bz2
# tar xjvf xcb-util-wm-0.4.0.tar.bz2 
# cd xcb-util-wm-0.4.0/
# ./configure --prefix=/usr && make && make install
# firefox https://github.com/csyuschmjuh/cairo-xcb
# cd cairo-xcb-master/
#  ./autogen.sh 
#  ./configure --prefix=/usr && make
#  make install
#  yum install lua-devel

Now we could finally build awesome.
Faint, it failed, so need more investigation. Later!!!!!!!

First using the git for pulling the repository from the github, following this article for setting the whole octopress system:
http://kkkttt.github.io/blog/2014/07/30/zai-githubshang-bu-shu-ni-de-octopressbo-ke/

New Tips

For the _deploy directory is the newly generated one, we have to do following changes:

rake setup_github_pages
cd _deploy
rm -f ./index.html
git remove index.html
git pull origin master
cd ..
rake generate && rake deply

After the above steps, Writing blog in Octopress becomes possible.
