Installation fails on opensuse 11.1 x86_64

Hi there,
i was going to give panda a try, did not work for me

First: all the download links for the installer are broken for opensuse 11.1

So, downloaded panda3d-1.6.2-linux64.tar.gz, followed the instructions in
doc/INSTALL-MK. Build seems to work ok, but no ppython is created in built/bin

panda3d-1.6.2> makepanda/makepanda.py --everything --threads 2

Don’t even try to set PATH or LD_LIBRARY_PATH manually.
Instead, use this:

python makepanda/makepanda.py --everything --installer

That will generate a .rpm file in the same directory which you can install.

Thanks for the answer - maybe you should put that in the docs.

Had a small problem building the rpm, the lib/-dir was not correctly specified. I replaced the line 3684

/usr/lib

in makepanda/makepanda.py with

/usr/%_lib

That macro resolves into “lib64” on x86-64 system (afaik this is std rpm macro and not a suse special)

Build went fine, ended up with a panda3d-1.6.2-1.x86_64.rpm which installed without problems, samples also work.

Thanks, I’ve applied the change to CVS.
