Error trying to compile OF v0.11.2 (from master branch) in Debian 12 Bookworm

linux
#1

Hello everybody:

I’m having problems trying to install OF from the file of_v0.11.2_linux64gcc6_release.tar.gz downloaded from the official site (download | openFrameworks) on Debian 12 Bookworm.
I have “read the f**ing manual” as advised in other posts, installed all the codecs and dependencies using the scripts install_codecs.sh and install_dependencies.sh in the folder openFrameworks/scripts/linux/debian.
Upon trying to compile the Project Generator with openFrameworks/scripts/linux/compilePG.sh the following message appears after some lines without errors:

When trying to compile OF with openFrameworks/scripts/linux/compileOF.sh I read the following after some lines:

As you can see, is the same lines of code that are causing this issue.
Any help will be appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Hey - apologies, we’re about to release 0.12.0 and the fix for the above error is in the nightly builds here:

Let us know if the linux build from the link above works for you?

Thanks!

Hello @theo ! Thanks for the quick reply. It compiled well indeed. I only got this single warning many times, I hope it’s nothing serious:

Also, the Project Generator compiled well, with a fair amount of warnings, though.
Thanks again.
