Build of libArcus fails for SuSE 13.1

[MEgg 0]

I tried to build

https://github.com/Ultimaker/libArcus

Had to install newer cmake because of

"CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:2 (cmake_minimum_required):

 CMake 2.8.12 or higher is required.  You are running version 2.8.11.2"

This was ok then with

cmake-2.8.12

Then:

"  Could NOT find PythonInterp: Found unsuitable version "3.3.5", but required

 is at least "3.4.0" (found /usr/bin/python3)"

Installed python 3.4.3 which was ok then.

Now I get:

"[...]

I have installed

sip-4.18.tar.gz

from

http://pyqt.sourceforge.net/Docs/sip4/installation.html

Any pointers what may be missing here?

I found

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/arcus/

but obviously this still fails and there is no solution.

We're working on a fix, but right now we only have one for Windows.

Can you put some kind of "warning sign" to

https://github.com/Ultimaker

if parts are not compileable for Windows or Linux.

Would have saved me a lot of time.

All the parts should work. We can't (and wont) put a warning sign up every time we have a bug that might break things.

@MEgg, if SuSE 13.1 uses Python 3.4 as default, you can better invest time into getting "cura-build" to create RPM packages or at least .tar.gz binary bundles.
