Have you compiled successfully before? Installed all dependencies (See INSTALL)?
Just built latest git on my machine, no problems/changes to before.

Hi
Yes, I've built kstars several times before. All the dependencies are installed as per INSTALL.
Never had the missing libraries before...????

Strange. Are you compiling in a separate build subdirectory? If not, try that, and/or remove any CMakeCache.txt files before calling cmake

I'm following this (from INSTALL. TIA.
Building KStars

$ mkdir ~/Projects/build/kstars
$ cd ~/Projects
$ git clone git://anongit.kde.org/kstars.git
$ cd build/kstars
$ cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug ~/Projects/kstars
$ make
$ sudo make install

Just to be sure: Directory ~/Projects/build/kstars did not exist before? If it still has old cache files things go wrong. I'd use a
$ rm -rf ~/Projects/build/kstars
as first line. Other than that, I'm out of ideas :(

You can do a

make clean

as well before calling

make

again.

I tried to build on my new laptop running Mint 19.1 using the details in this post:
indilib.org/forum/general/210-howto-buil...st-libindi-ekos.html

Results were the same as alacant:
[ 96%] Linking CXX executable kstars
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lsecret-1
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
kstars/CMakeFiles/kstars.dir/build.make:224: recipe for target 'kstars/kstars' failed
make[2]: *** [kstars/kstars] Error 1
CMakeFiles/Makefile2:393: recipe for target 'kstars/CMakeFiles/kstars.dir/all' failed
make[1]: *** [kstars/CMakeFiles/kstars.dir/all] Error 2
Makefile:140: recipe for target 'all' failed
make: *** [all] Error 2



Confirmed this *did* solve the problem for me:

Interesting. While I do have libsecret installed, it's not used for kstars at all (nor is it mentioned anywhere in the kstars sources). So it seems to be a sub-dependence from another lib. And it obviously is distribution-dependent (or *buntu specific)

Note that libsecret is a different package than libsercret-dev.

Of course it is. One is the actual library, the other the header files and .so link. And without the .so link the compiler will not find the library to link. But the point is that on openSUSE it does not try to link that library in at all.
Any Arch or Fedora people around? Would be curious to know if they need it.
