Hi all. I am using a x86_64 system and still I can not build the SBIG CCD driver.

I took the steps on indilib website for installing SBIG CCDs , to be specific:

$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mutlaqja/ppa
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install indi-sbig

But when I try to run the SBIG service in KStars, it crashes complaining it cannot find the libsbig.so.4 file. Log file is attached to this reply. I'll also put the contents at the end of this reply.


So then I tried installing SBIG from indi-3rdparty github repository . I tried installing only the SBIG driver, so here are the steps I took.

1. Installed the INDI core library with git clone and cmake as instructed. Perfect success.
2. Cloned the INDI 3rd party drivers github repository
3. Followed the instructions for building the INDI 3rd party drivers individually like:

   $ mkdir -p ~/Projects/build/indi-sbig
   $ cd ~/Projects/build/indi-sbig
   $ cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug ~/Projects/indi-3rdparty/indi-sbig

   And got the error:

   -- Found CFITSIO: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcfitsio.so
   CMake Error at /home/ino/apps/indi-3rdparty/cmake_modules/FindSBIG.cmake:44 (message):
     SBIG not found.  Please install SBIG Library http://www.indilib.org
   Call Stack (most recent call first):
     CMakeLists.txt:14 (find_package)
   
   
   -- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!
   See also "/myPath/indi-sbig/CMakeFiles/CMakeOutput.log".

   Also I put the cmake log contents at the end of the reply and in the attachments.
