The first is that I'm brand new to opencog and so have very little experience with it and wouldn't want to introduce an error due to my newbie status. The second is that I'm not sure exactly what the correct solution should be (in terms of what the wiki ought to say). Let me try to explain. https://wiki.opencog.org/w/Building_OpenCog_(Hands_On) is the wiki page I was using to try to get started, and as I had an ubuntu 16.04 VM available, I was using the instructions from: 3. Installing dependencies on Ubuntu The command to install octool16 worked great, but when I ran: ./octool16 -rsdpcalv I (eventually) got the build error about no CogUtil. I have no idea how octool works, but I think ideally, that above command ought to be tweaked/edited to check out, build and install from the cogutil and atomspace git repos prior to attempting to build opencog itself. Which may be more than a wiki edit. After seeing your message this morning and looking more closely at the wiki, I noticed that I still had this other tab open: https://wiki.opencog.org/w/Installing_OpenCog_for_Noobs#First_Steps_for_.2A.2Aexpert.2A.2A_users:_those_familiar_with_git.2C_Github.2C_and_Linux As it only referenced an earlier version of ubuntu (versions > 14) I hadn't looked closely at it. But I now see that under the "New Instructions" section, that the correct procedure is outlined (manually though, not using octool). I hope this helps. And I'm willing to provide more feedback if necessary.
