Description

After successfully installing lttng-modules and userspace-rcu, I followed the instructions for installing lttng-ust. Both ./bootstrap and ./configure ran OK, but this error happened during make:

-- Could NOT find LTTngUST (missing:  LTTNGUST_LIBRARIES LTTNGUST_INCLUDE_DIRS)

I should mention that this is a clean-system install, i.e., it is a brand-new LTTng installation on a recently installed machine. Linux distribution is Slackware64-14.2, no extraneous software. Hardware is Dell R720, 2x Intel E5-2620 v3, 320 GB RAM. Linux kernel 4.6.3, config is based on Slackware's default plus many tweaks to enable all sorts of tracing stuff.

Git suggests this is a 2.9.0-pre version. Hash is 723f78e383087aebe4975305d8fd3ca5a0c9097b.

To confirm that the failed example expects the (self-)dependencies to be already installed, I ran make install as root. The pre-requisites got installed while make install started, and eventually the compilation of the examples succeeded. By doing this, the package was successfully installed.

The fix could be implemented 100% in FindLTTngUST.cmake such that it looks in the lttng-ust source distribution for the header file and for the shared library.

I don't think that we would really want that.

So...

The 3 solutions that I can see are:

1. The patch that I provided (or a variant thereof).

2. Implement a solution strictly in FindLTTngUST.cmake.

3. Don't build this example if if LTTngUST is not found on the system.

On another machine (without LTTng), using the repository/branch mentioned by Sébastien, the build completed without errors:

I would think that there might be a way to FindLTTngUST.cmake to look in additional spots ?

So it would itself not have to know whether it is invoked from src tree or not, but would rather receive environment variables telling it where to look.

Solution (1) looks weird because there appears to be an error in the configure output (cannot find...), but then it succeeds afterward.

Actions #6

Updated by Philippe Proulx over 7 years ago

find_path() and find_library() need to know where to find the include and library files beyond the system directories.

One of the many ways to achieve this is by using the standard CMake definitions CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH and CMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH.

This is fixed in this GH pull request.
