configure: error: "msgpack >= 1.2.0 not found"

[falood]

I compile tmate-slave on SmartOS_20160218T022556Z.
What should I do to let tmate-slave find msgpack?
Thank you.

PS. I get msgpack from https://github.com/msgpack/msgpack-c.

[nviennot]

you can look at how https://github.com/tmate-io/tmate-kitchen/tree/master/site-cookbooks/tmate_slave/recipes does it

@nviennot
Thanks, the msgpack check passed.
But, another error raised when make.

clang: warning: argument unused during compilation: '-g'

clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

Should I close this issue and open another one?

[nviennot]

Not sure what's going on. The openpty function should be in glibc.

[falood]

It seems that glibc is not compatible with SmartOS, I can't compile it.
I'm not good at C/C++. How I wish I could make a PR.

[nviennot]

I'll look into it

The above configure error msgpack >= 1.2.0 not found is also present on Ubuntu Linux 14.04LTS.

In addition to the requirements listed on https://tmate.io I have manually installed the packages ruby-msgpack and libmsgpack-dev (which automatically installed libmsgpack3 and libmsgpackc2 as dependencies).

It didn't help, the error still persists.

[nviennot]

Either install msgpack manually, or use the PPA repositories.

[field-theory]

There are several implementations of msgpack for C. After inspecting the source I figured that the required implementation is [email protected]:msgpack/msgpack-c.git.

When compiling that manually (along with libssh) the server compiles now properly.

@nviennot I have the same issue on a centos 7. Interestingly enough a year ago building on a centos 7 I had 0 issues must really be due to the introduction.

Followed all the steps now multiple times but failing with the error mentioned above.

Also installed msgpack via yum which is on version 1.4.x now
Built & compiled msgpack as well as libssh libevent

But still the issue exists

centos 6.7 x64. I want to use tmate server on my machine. Everything above have been tried. Not work.
yum install msgpack msgpack-devel (latest version from repository 0.5.7), gem install msgpack (latest version 1.0.2) , install manaually from msgpack source suggested by recipes, install source from msgpack-c, re-install libssh from source suggested by recipes.
Not work.
There are several edition of msgpack in my system. Not work.
I find two msgpack.pc in pkgconfig folder in my system.
msgpack.pc is in /usr/lib/pkgconfig which is 1.3.0, which is might be installed from recipes. Another one is shown 2.1.0 in /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig which is might be installed by manaually from source msgpack-c. But pkg-config could not find any of them, and pkg-config can find libssh.
It is wired.
I just set enviroment variable PKG_CONFIG_PATH. Set PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/usr/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig"
Anyway.
Works. configure process now is pass.

And now. pkg-config can find it either.

[root@mymachine tmate-slave]# pkg-config --libs --cflags msgpack
 -lmsgpack  
[root@mymachine tmate-slave]# pkg-config --modversion msgpack
1.3.0

This is happening for me on Ubuntu 16.04 as well.

This is happening for me on Ubuntu 16.04 as well.

So, how did you solve that?

[wreed4]

I don't think I did.

Debian 9
apt install libmsgpack-dev

Had the same issue on Debian Stretch. Solved by installing the above package

[mimoo]

I have this error when following the step to install a server from the landing page https://tmate.io/

libmsgpack-dev should be added to the list of dependencies, which currently reads:

tmate also depends on a couple of packages. On Ubuntu, the packages are:
git-core build-essential pkg-config libtool libevent-dev libncurses-dev zlib1g-dev automake libssh-dev cmake ruby
