Thanks for the follow-up, Mike! That's quite an interesting and
useful list of Debian package dependencies that will hopefully make
things easier for others reading the archives.
It's worth noting that several of those dependencies are entirely
optional and will provide no significant benefit for most users. In
particular, jamvm, libxslt, and fop are not required dependencies.
Without those, you just won't get documentation in pdf format
generated (but will still get html format and manual pages). Also,
you don't need both 8.4 and 8.5 tcl/tk -- you just need one or the
other (so you could take tcl8.4-dev and tk8.4-dev off that list). If
you really want to get pedantic, even having an X11 server and OpenGL
is optional, but just not very fun. Finally, you shouldn't have
needed freeglut3-dev at all.
Glad we were able to sort the build out on IRC! When in doubt, start
from a fresh checkout. ;-)
Cheers!

Hi All,
This is a follow-up on my post `7.14.6 install fails on Debian
Lenny' to report the problem and how it was solved.
I downloaded the source files and tried to compile them, which
failed. The config.log file reported some libraries and
applications were missing. I then installed:
autoconf
bison
byacc
flex
fop
freeglut3-dev
itcl3-dev
jamvm
libgl1-mesa-dev
libglu1-mesa-dev
libncurses5-dev
libpng-12
libstdc++5
libtnt-dev
libtool
libx11-dev
libxi-dev
libxslt1-dev
libxt-dev
linux-headers-2.6.26-1-all-i386
tcl8.4-dev
tcl8.5
tcl8.5-dev
tk8.4-dev
tk8.5
tk8.5-dev
xorg-dev
xserver-xorg-core
Trying the build the source still failed but now make reported a
link error:

With the help of brlcad (and others) on the irc channel #brlcad,
the problem was traced to an unclean build.
This was solved by:
rm libfb_la-if_X24.lo && make && nm .libs/libfb_la-if_X24.o | grep
open_existing
followed by:
cd ../bwish
make
which then showed no errors and allowed to proceed with the usual
installation:
../configure
and
make
Another way is to remove the current unclean build and start from
scratch (after installating all the necessary libraries/
applications mentioned above).
Hope this helps,
Mike.
