Ubuntu 14.04 Install error

[bChamps]

Hi
I am new to Linux and I am try to install EMGU on Ubuntu 14.04. I have followed all of the steps and when I get to generating the cmake file I get the following error:

Code: Select all

benjamin@benjamin-P15SM-A-SM1-A:~/emgucv$ cmake -DBUILD_NEW_PYTHON_SUPPORT:BOOL=FALSE -DEMGU_CV_EXAMPLE_BUILD:BOOL=FALSE -DBUILD_TESTS:BOOL=FALSE -DBUILD_DOCS:BOOL=FALSE .
-- Found gacutil: /usr/bin/gacutil
-- Found al: /usr/bin/al
-- Found resgen: /usr/bin/resgen
CMake Error at cmake/modules/FindCSharp.cmake:133 (MESSAGE):
  Could not find one or more of the

  following programs: csc, gacutil, al, resgen
Call Stack (most recent call first):
  CMakeLists.txt:26 (FIND_PACKAGE)


-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!
See also "/home/benjamin/emgucv/CMakeFiles/CMakeOutput.log".


I have seen that the solution is to do:
sudo apt-get install mono-gmcs
and
sudo apt-get install mono-mcs

But when I try to install mono-gmcs I get the following error:

Code: Select all

benjamin@benjamin-P15SM-A-SM1-A:~/emgucv$ sudo apt-get install mono-gmcs

The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 mono-gmcs : Depends: mono-mcs (= 3.12.1-0xamarin1) but 4.0.4.1-0xamarin1 is to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.


I have tried redoing all of the steps in EMGU again and I am still getting the same errors. I have also tried reinstalling all of the mono packages, still with no luck.

Any help would be appreciated.

I am stuck at the same problem, have you found any solution? kindly, post it if you have. thanks

here is a solution

some basic definitions:
-mono-mcs => mono-microsoft c sharp
-mcs => the c sharp compiler.
-mono-gmcs => mcs compiler to generate files for .NET 2.0
-mono-dmcs => mcs compiler to generate files for .NET 4.0

recently xarmin deprecated the mono-*mcs and unified them to only one compiler. looks like emgucv did not care for that . so this is the problem: emgucv wants to use mono-gmcs, but you only have mcs, so you need to tell the cmake file to use it instead of gmcs. how to do that?

-navigate to the CMakeLists.txt location (inside emgu directory where you downloaded it).
-type the following

Code: Select all

ccmake -G .

this will open sort of editor to the cmake file and allows you to change them
-navigate to the line that states which csharp compiler to use (probably you will find the configuration value is set to csc_not_detected or something like that.
-add the path to mcs here (press enter then add the path to your mcs)

note: you can get this path by using this command

Code: Select all

which mcs
