When you try to install Eagle 6.1.0 on Ubuntu 11.10, you will probably get an error message stating that libpng14 is missing. Here is how you could sort that out.
- Prep Ubuntu for 32 bit compilation
Code: Select all
sudo apt-get install build-essential lib32z1-dev g++-multilib gcc-multilib ia32-libs libssl1.0.0 libssl1.0.0:i386 libjpeg8 libjpeg8:i386
- Download libpng14 from the following link
Code: Select all
http://sourceforge.net/projects/libpng/files/libpng14/1.4.8/libpng-1.4.8.tar.xz/download
- Decompress it by using following command.
Code: Select all
tar xvf libpng-1.4.8*
- Now change the folder and compile the source as below.
Note: For 32-bit Linux, remove "CFLAGS=-m32" and just use this line instead:
Code: Select all
cd libpng-* ./configure CFLAGS=-m32 --prefix=/ make check sudo make install
Code: Select all
./configure --prefix=/
- Now install Eagle.
Code: Select all
chmod a+x eagle-lin* sudo ./eagle-lin*
