libnova not found was created by J.Zhang

I have used the apt-get install libnova-dev to install the libnova, but when i compile the indi library, the cmake command show the error that it can't find the libnova-dev, how to solve this problem?

Hi, what OS do you have? Try

uname -a

What source do you have? r960 should be the last commit for 0.9.6. Try

cd /usr/local/src/indi
svn update -r 960

Try to remove cmake cache, execute it one more time and copy & paste complete result here:

cd /usr/local/src/indi/libindi
rm -rf CMakeFiles CMakeCache.txt
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr .

I had exactly the same problem yesterday on OSX Mavericks and the problem was, that /usr/local/include (/usr/include in case of Raspbian ) wasn't on compiler search path. There is a feature (or a bug in my opinion) in cmake_modules/FindNova.cmake that it is referencing libnova as

#include <libnova.h>

instead of

#include <libnova/libnova.h>

BTW, It is not a good idea to do experiments like this under root account :-)

It works. Thanks for your suggestion. My OS is wheezy-raspbian installed on Raspberry Pi. Yesterday I also have found there is some problem in the FindNova.cmake. But I'm a freshman in Linux, so I had no idea how to modify the document. Thanks again. And I want to know is the libnova/libnova.h a relative path?

Hi, yes, libnova/libnova.h is relative to /usr/include in your case and this should be in compiler search path to make FIndNova.cmake detect the library correctly.
