Pay attention, if you switched off the GUI, the user-script should not
contain any GUI-related code.

img_rc.py is generated in gui/CMakeLists.txt. during the configuration
step of the build. It would be good to read the output from CMake on
this stage.

For GUI-enabled builds - yes, you need it and for build time and for runtime.

Cheers,

Anton

Dear David,
Please use launchpad questions next time, instead of plain emails (*).

Yes. "Gl" refers to openGL, hence graphical environment. It should be 
removed on users side. Obviously, manipulating 3D view is not an option 
in a script for cluster production.


I then attempted to build the GUI version. The build (make) process 
completed successfully, however I found that “make install” failed 
looking for a file called “img_rc.py”. I cannot find any trace of this 
file in the Yale source distribution, and so I have no idea how to 
progress the GUI build. In this respect I have installed qt v4, 
however not PyQt4 – is the latter package required?



I can't help for this one personally, sorry.
Regards

Bruno

Hello and welcome,


For questions and answers about YADE use, we're using a launchpad website [*], 
could you please re-ask your question there ? The "yade-users" mailing list is 
rather for general announcements.


Thanks !


PS: in the meantime, yes I think that "Gl1_Sphere" is related to GUI, and I 
also think that PyQt4 (or PyQt5) is a required package, see 
https://yade-dem.org/doc/installation.html#prerequisites.

Subject: [Yade-users] Yade installation questions


Hello,



I have a couple of Yade installation related questions, please.



I have just finished installing Yade from source on our RedHat 6.3 cluster. 
That is, to be more precise, I installed Yade with the GUI component switched 
off. The build was eventually successful and I was then able to run both "yade 
-check" and "yade -test" without any issues. On the other hand when I tested a 
script provided by the user I noticed that my Yade could not find the 
Gl1_Sphere attribute/command. Is that because I build Yade with GUI=OFF?



I then attempted to build the GUI version. The build (make) process completed 
successfully, however I found that "make install" failed looking for a file 
called "img_rc.py". I cannot find any trace of this file in the Yale source 
distribution, and so I have no idea how to progress the GUI build. In this 
respect I have installed qt v4, however not PyQt4 - is the latter package 
required?



I am new to Yade and so I would appreciate any relevant advice from the 
community, please.



Best regards,

David
