hi all
i try once compile Pixie - Open Source RenderMan but have bad result…
now i found one more good looking render engine Lux Render

it is interesting for me, somebody compile this succesfully?

2

There is a renderman in the Packman repository and plenty of people on Google say they have compiled luxrender for openSUSE though none of them mention it being in a repository.

thank for your quick reaply :slight_smile:
afaiu this is compilable but guys who compile it think that is no need to include it in repository?
it is not understandable to me… of cource it can not ben in main repository but if somebody compile it, at least this can be shared by user directory…

pixie is in
PackMan :: Suchergebnisse
i could not find it there

as for renderman it not opensource and not free
(https://renderman.pixar.com/products/purchase/index.html) and of cource it could nobe there…
PackMan :: Suchergebnisse

A thing is to compile the program and another is to create a RPM package.

If you want to create RPM packages to share in the openSUSE Build Service…

With the Fedora spec file create an openSUSE RPM is really easy.

  • Debian has luxrender, you can get patches from them: Debian – Details of source package luxrender in sid
  • Fedora has Pixie, just take its spec file: [pkgs] Index of /rpms/Pixie/devel

ok i make some diferent

i went here Building on Linux - LuxRender Wiki

reads aboute fedora compile process and change yum with zypper


sudo zypper update

Then install the dependencies:

sudo zypper install cmake
sudo zypper install bison flex fltk boost fltk-devel OpenEXR OpenEXR-devel wxGTK wxGTK-devel

than invoke:

cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.savannah.nongnu.org:/sources/ecume co lux
cmake lux
make

in addition to this i add

make install

it seems that compile good, but i can not launch luxrender, bug report apears.

i give this more attention later
