External Email - Use Caution        

Just a quick follow up, I've now been able to find my issue in the wild as well 
(not just on my own machines).

I use Arch Linux personally and on a small handful of workstations 
professionally, and when investigating using FS on Arch, I stumbled upon an AUR 
build someone had done. While I didn't intend to use this buildfile (still 
version 6.x), the top comment on the below link alludes to the same PETSC error 
message with FS as I'm experiencing on my Ubuntu machines:

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/freesurfer-bin/

Hello Tristan,

Going back to that thread, I’d like to try the command you uploaded data for as 
freesurfer_data.tar.gz on a couple of Ubuntu systems, but either I’m looking in 
the wrong place or it’s not there anymore.  Is there a shared google drive link 
or something you point me to for a download link?

Thanks for the reply, all.

The issues I'm having are the same as they were in my prior thread, found here:
MailScanner has detected a possible fraud attempt from "www..mail-archive.com" 
claiming to be 
https://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg63458.html<https://www..mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg63458.html>

I tried everything up to and including compiling everything from scratch 
(including FS itself, missing libs, PETSC, etc.). The main takeaway is that I 
pretty convincingly narrowed the issue down to PETSC+Ubuntu 18.04, the most 
pertinent details for that being in the following post:
https://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg63702.html

Back when I was active in that thread, I emailed the PETSC mailing list and got 
no response, and at the time I was pretty busy with other projects so I had to 
let it go for the time being; I maintained my old RHEL6 server so people could 
continue to use FS. Now with everyone in quarantine (and RHEL6 entering ELS 
this November), it's a decent time to look back into this issue.

I wouldn't have reached back out to the FS list, however when I saw that a 
focus was being placed on Ubuntu (and that there was a working Ubuntu VM), I 
became hopeful that maybe this issue was resolved?

We would also like to know about any issues you are seeing on Ubuntu.

I think Ubuntu eliminated some jpeg/png packages from their repos.  Those can 
be downloaded and installed manually,e.g., 
libpng12-0_1.2.54-1ubuntu1.1_amd64.deb, libjpeg62_6b2-3_amd64.deb.  That is 
part of the reason we made an Ubuntu 18 VM available with everything 
pre-installed.

The VM is essentially what has been used for the freesurfer course which runs 
mostly freeview commands with some mri* commands (though I believe a recon-all 
also works).  The VM is running binaries built on CentOS7 - as the reference 
platforms for freesurfer dev are currently CentOS and MacOS.  We are looking at 
making a .deb installer for freesurfer on Ubuntu though.

There is some info on the wiki about packages required to compile the source on 
Ubuntu - but you don’t need all of these to run (even the CentOS) binaries.

Hi Tristan,

I'm about to setup a FreeSurfer installation on an Ubuntu system, and I 
wondered whether you could elaborate on the kind of issues you are experiencing.

Best,

Tim

Is there going to be an "official" Ubuntu build this time around (as in, built 
and tested in Ubuntu) that isn't the VM? Both the current CentOS and the dev 
builds continue to have issues (even when compiled from scratch) on my Ubuntu 
18.04 servers.

Thanks!
T

Hello Mina,

I see from https://www.centosblog.com/centos-eol-dates/ that CentOS 6 will no 
longer be updated as of 11/2020, and similarly for CentOS 7 in 6/2024.  It 
looks like CentOS 8 was released around September of 2019.

While we do not currently build/test on CentOS8, I am sure it will eventually 
be supported.   Given some users will continue to use CentOS 6 even after 
11/2020 and that many people have been running the freesurfer 6 release on 
CentOS6, then even the upcoming freesurfer 7 release is targeting CentOS6, 
CentOS7 and Ubuntu linux (as well as Mac OS).

There is also currently an Ubuntu 18 VM with freesurfer 6 and the beta release 
of freesurfer 7 pre-installed which you can find here, 
https://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/VM_67

Greetings FreeSurfer team,

I recently upgraded by workstation from Centos 7 to 8.1 as the support for 
centos  7 will be over soon.

I tried installing freesurfer version 7.0 beta 1 but failed due to some 
unresolved dependencies (tried on a  virtual centos 7 and worked fine) !!

so, when will there be support for centos 8, thank you

Best regards
Mina
