Terra et caleum

Available files:

  Introduction: to be able to run the program you must use the library libqt.6.9 that is not present in the various distributions of Linux. It is in the file Terra_et_caelum.tar.gz.

  In some distributions of Linux the library libqt.so.2 is incompatible with the program. In that case we can use the library placed in the file librerie.tar.gz.

  Directions for the self-installation of the program Terra et caelum:

  • Download the file Terra_et_caelum.tar.gz on your Home directory.
  • Download the script installTerra_et_caelum.sh on your Home directory.
  • Open a terminal on your Home directory.
  • Set the script installTerra_et_caelum.sh executable with the command:
    chmod ugo+x installTerra_et_caelum.sh
  • Run the script installTerra_et_caelum.sh writing:
    • ./installTerra_et_caelum.sh.
    or
    • Open a window of Konqueror.
    • Click once on the script istallTerra_et_caelum.sh.

  Should the library libqt.so.2 be incompatibile, for the files librerie.tar.gz and installLibrerie.sh, follow the same directions as those of the files Terra_et_caelum.tar.gz and installTerra_et_caelum.sh.

  NOTE - When the program is installed we can use the self-running script:
  • ./startTerra_et_caelum.sh.
    or
  • Open a window of Konqueror.
  • Click once on the script startTerra_et_caelum.sh.

  Direction in the case of manual installation of Terra_et_caelum:

  1. Download the file Terra_et_caelum.tar.gz on your Home directory.
  2. Download the file librerie.tar.gz on your Home directory.
  3. Unzip the file Terra_et_caelum.tar.gz with the commands:
    gunzip Terra_et_caelum.tar.gz
    tar -xvf Terra_et_caelum.tar
  4. Unzip the file librerie.tar.gz with the commands:
    gunzip librerie.tar.gz
    tar -xvf librerie.tar
  5. Open Scienze directory
    cd Scienze
  6. Control that now the program has all the necessary libraries with:
    ldd ./Terra_et_caelum
       we have:
    • /lib/libNoVersion.so.1 => /lib/libNoVersion.so.1 (0x40017000)
    • libqtintf.so => ./libqtintf.so (0x40019000)
    • libX11.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6 (0x4016b000)
    • libpthread.so.0 => /lib/libpthread.so.0 (0x4022b000)
    • libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x40242000)
    • libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x40246000)
    • libqt.so.2 => ./libqt.so.2 (0x4036e000)
    • /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000)
    • libXext.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXext.so.6 (0x40a05000)
    • libSM.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libSM.so.6 (0x40a13000)
    • libICE.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libICE.so.6 (0x40a1d000)
    • libjpeg.so.62 => /usr/lib/libjpeg.so.62 (0x40a36000)
    • libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2 => /usr/lib/libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2 (0x40a55000)
    • libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0x40a9d000)
    In the case this do not happen when writing ldd ./Terra_et_caelum we have
    • /lib/libNoVersion.so.1 => /lib/libNoVersion.so.1 (0x40017000)
    • libqtintf.so => not found>
    • libX11.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6 (0x40023000)
    • libpthread.so.0 => /lib/libpthread.so.0 (0x400e3000)
    • libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x400fa000)
    • libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x400fe000)
    • /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000)
  7. Create the links between the libraries and the downloaded files with:
    ln -s libqtintf-6.9.0-qt2.3.so libqtintf.so
    ln -s libqt.so.2.2.4 libqt.so.2
  8. Export the libraries with the command:
    export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=./:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
  9. Control that now the program has all the required libraries with:
    ldd ./Terra_et_caelum
    see point 6)
  10. Now we can run the program writing:
    ./Terra_et_caelum

  NOTE - When the program is installed we can use the self-running script:
  • ./startTerra_et_caelum.sh
    ou
  • Open a window of Konqueror.
  • Click once on the script startTerra_et_caelum.sh.
    or
  • cd Scienze
  • ./Terra_et_caelum

  Have a lot of fun
