drmtools installation error

Question

[Shahzad]

Dear All please help me to solve this installation error

while installing a small util https://sourceforge.net/projects/drmtools/ Build instructions: Use cmake. Inspect the CMakeLists.txt and verify that it will install to the directory you want. Then do: mkdir build cd build cmake .. make make install

Hi Shahzad

Please use the formatting bar (especially the code option) to present your post better. I've done it for you this time.

Thank you!

[GenoMax]

Looks like you need to install PCRE libraries to begin with.

[Shahzad]

Thank you. That solved the problem. Also thank you @lakhujanivijay i ll take care of the from now on.

But the extract command at 67% on the process seems to generate some warning when i tried to execute it, it was not detected by ubuntu. Any thoughts?

[Shahzad]

i want to use extract: A utility that is designed to extract and emit data from text files based on character or token position. In many instances it can replace tr, sed, or awk.

execinput: A utility that reads from stdin and executes each line as a command in a subprocess. from this package and both the commands are unavailable after complete installation.

[GenoMax]

both the commands are unavailable after complete installation

You will need to make sure that the executables were made after completion of compilation. If they were then add the directory where they are present to your $PATH.

[Shahzad]

ls
build.make  C.includecache  cmake_clean.cmake  DependInfo.cmake  depend.internal  depend.make  execinput.c.o  flags.make  link.txt  progress.mak

these are files from one folder generated by after compilation. i even manally export the path still not found by the system.

[GenoMax]

These don't look like the executables you want. They may be in bin directory in software source or if you had root privileges then they should have been copied to /bin or /usr/bin. You will need to look if there was no error produced during compilation.

[Shahzad]

Hi thank you. sorry for late reply. The executables were going in default directory as directed by the script had to edit the directory path from the script.
