Tools

GCC

Version: >=7.0

Subversion

Version: >1.6

Cmake

Version: >=3.10

Doxygen

Version: >=1.6.3

GraphViz

optional
Version: >=2.26.3

External libraries

Boost (devel)

Version: >=1.44
On Fedora system at least version 1.44.0-7 is necessary for boost::filesystem v3 (see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=667740)

OpenCV (devel)

Version: >=2.2

Qt (devel)

Version: >=4.6 (>=4.7 is recommended)
Be sure that your Qt Version includes the Qt WebKit library (needed by mirapackage)
MIRA can work with either Qt4 or Qt5. In general, detection of the available Qt version is done by cmake automatically. If both versions are found, it defaults to Qt5, but use of Qt4 can be enforced (by setting the FORCE_USE_QT4 switch to ON in make/GlobalConfig.cmake).

Ogre (devel)

Version: >= 1.7.2, < 2

SQLite (devel)

Version: >=3.6

libxml2 (devel)

zlib (devel)

openssl (devel)

freetype (devel)

subversion (devel)

qwt (devel)

optional (visualizing data in a 2d plot view will not be available if not installed)

curl (devel)

procps (devel)

Installation of Requirements on Redhat / CentOS / Oracle-Linux

CentOS 7

Install gcc-9:

yum install centos-release-scl
yum install devtoolset-9
scl enable devtoolset-9 bash

Activate the MetraLabs RPM repository:

CentOS 7, 64bit: http://metralabs-service.com/downloads/SCITOS/redhat/el7/x86_64/MetraLabs-release-7-0.noarch.rpm

Install the following packages:

yum install gcc-c++ cmake patch subversion-devel doxygen binutils-devel libxml2-devel zlib-devel openssl-devel sqlite-devel boost-* ogre-devel opencv-devel libcurl-devel procps-ng-devel

To use with Qt4:

yum install qt-devel qt-doc qt-webkit-devel qwt-devel

To use with Qt5:

yum install qt5-*-devel qwt-qt5-devel

CentOS 8 / Oracle-Linux 8

Activate the MetraLabs RPM repository for CentOS-8, 64bit:

dnf install http://metralabs-service.com/downloads/SCITOS/redhat/el8/x86_64/MetraLabs-release-8-0.noarch.rpm

Important note: Due to the hardened gcc-8 in the default installation of CentOS-8, the compiler is not able to use pre-compiled headers (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1806545). Therefore, we strongly recommend to use GCC version 9 from the "GCC Toolset 9" (see here: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/8/html/developing_c_and_cpp_applications_in_rhel_8/gcc-toolset-9_toolsets) using the following commands:

dnf install gcc-toolset-9

scl enable gcc-toolset-9 bash

Repository configuration CentOS-8

Furthermore, the repositories EPEL and PowerTools must be enabled:

dnf config-manager --enable epel
dnf config-manager --enable epel-playground
dnf config-manager --enable powertools

Repository configuration OracleLinux-8

dnf config-manager --set-disabled ol8_developer_EPEL
dnf remove oracle-epel-release-el8
dnf config-manager --set-enabled ol8_codeready_builder
dnf install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-8.noarch.rpm
