Problem compiling RT

Software RawTherapee
#1

Hi,
Few days ago, I’ve encountered a problem in compiling RT the automatic way.

$ ./build-rawtherapee

Program name: rawtherapee
Build type: release
Build without updating: false

-- CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE: release
-- Checking for module 'exiv2>=0.24'
--   No package 'exiv2' found
CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake-3.18/Modules/FindPkgConfig.cmake:545 (message):

I’ve already updated exiv2 to version 0.27.3 :cry:
Is there a trick ?

#2

Operating system?

#3

The path names look like some kind of Linux what I have almost no idea of :upside_down_face:

#4

Depending on your distro, you need to install either exiv2-devel or libexiv2-dev, or some such.

Thanks a lot!
You saved my day :wink:
I’m on Debian bullseye.
I’ve installed libexiv2-dev 0.27.3-3+deb11u2.
The script now works like a charm!
