... Okay, now on ubuntu 16.04. it worked including larch. Not completely without some pain, but almost. I installed it as user. It was missing wx and my attempts to install it from cpan were failing. Installing from repositories solved the issue and Demeter build without problems after that. Cheers, Edmund On 09.08.2018 11:49, Edmund Welter wrote:
Dear Bruce, Robert,
thanks for the hints. I just installed Larch, it is running (meaning I can start the larch_gui) and the last error message, the one concerning Larch disappeared. All the others are still there.
Anyway, I am just now upgrading to 16.04. I do not think that the problem is caused by Demeter or by 14.04 (Demeter was running on 14.04). I think I broke something in my ubuntu. Several packages which are vital for Demeter are reported as broken in /var/log/dist-upgrade/apt.log
The last entry way "libalien-wxwidgets-perl". This broken package actually blocked the distribution upgrade and I had to remove it before i could continue.
Well let's see, the next step will be a fresh install of 16.04....
Cheers,
Edmund

Is larch up to date? Or even installed? It would seem that $larch_exe is not being evaluated properly and is undefined when you get to line 288 in Larch.pm.

Dear all, I am hitting a wall trying to install the latest Demeter version on my ubuntu laptop. System: Ubuntu 14.04 Demeter: 0.9.26 perl: 5.18.2 pdl and pdl::stats from repositories. (I tried a newer versions from cpan, but ot no avail) moose: initially from repositories, than vs. 2.2011 from cpan
I did follow the installation instructions on https://bruceravel.github.io/demeter/documents/SinglePage/demeter_nonroot.ht...
and tried to install demeter in ~/perl5 and also the instructions in: https://bruceravel.github.io/demeter/documents/SinglePage/installation.html
to install Demeter as sudo
Both attempts ended with the same result when I start dathena in a terminal the image of the goddess appears briefly and I get the following error messages in the terminal: --------------------------------------------------------------------- Invalid version format (non-numeric data) at /usr/local/lib/perl/5.18.2/Moose/Exporter.pm line 11, <DATA> line 90.

When i try to start denv to create the nice overview of installed components I only get the following errors: -------------------------------------------------------------------- [PDL->Version: 10 PDL_CORE_VERSION: 8 XS_VERSION: ] PDL::Stats::Distr needs to be recompiled against the newly installed PDL at /usr/lib/perl/5.18/DynaLoader.pm line 207.

Any hint would be welcome, upgrading ubuntu to a newer LTS version might be useful (It is absolutely possible that something is weird with this installation after a lot of playing around) but I am currently reluctant to do so, because it will for sure break other things...
