Subject: [Meshbuilder-dev] Building Meshbuilder on Ubuntu Hardy

Hi,

I have backported the openscenegraph packages from Gutsy to Hardy, so for
those interested, here is a way to build Meshbuilder on Hardy:

1. Add package.simula.no to your apt sources as described at

  http://packages.simula.no/README

2. Install the backported version of openscenegraph:

  sudo apt-get install libopenscenegraph-dev=1.2.0-4build1~simula1 \
         libopenthreads-dev=1.2.0-4build1~simula1 \
         libproducer-dev=1.2.0-4build1~simula1

3. Build Meshbuilder as normally.

Ubuntu will try to upgrade the -dev packages when doing a system upgrade.
If you want

Sorry, the message was sent too early!

So, to prevent the packages from being upgraded, run these commands:

echo "libopenscenegraph-dev hold" | sudo dpkg --set-selections
echo "libopenthreads-dev hold" | sudo dpkg --set-selections
echo "libproducer-dev hold" | sudo dpkg --set-selections
echo "libopenscenegraph6 hold" | sudo dpkg --set-selections
echo "libopenthreads6 hold" | sudo dpkg --set-selections
