Issue compiling on Ubuntu

[FulliAutomatix]

So I'm attempting to compile JGR's Patchpack on Ubuntu Server 18.04, but I can't get further than getting the libraries needed to compile it in the first place!
I try using these commands in this order

Code: Select all

sudo su
git clone https://github.com/JGRennison/OpenTTD-patches.git jgrpp
cd jgrpp
sudo apt-get build-dep openttd

but when I do the apt-get for the required libraries, I get an issue saying

Code: Select all

Reading package lists... Done
E: You must put some 'source' URIs in your sources.list

and I have no clue where to go from here.

Anybody able to help me?

Many thanks

P.S. this compile is just to get a Linux version of JGRPP to run as a server.

If you want to create a deb package, I can not do it, but I think it's more important to install it first.
I do not remember all of the .deb packages I've installed, but then I did the following

Dedicated server:
---------------------------------------
sudo apt-get install pkg-config
cd jgrpp
chmod +x findversion.sh
chmod +x configure
chmod +x version_utils.sh
./configure --enable-dedicated --without-liblzo2
make

(You may need to edit the program version name in the jgrpp/src/rev.cpp file and change the parameter: const char _openttd_revision [] = "jgrpp-0.27.0")

make
sudo make install
cd /home/youruser
/usr/local/games/openttd -D

(Use CTRL-C to exit the game and find out that the openttd.cfg file was created in the /home/youruser/.openttd subdirectory. You can edit the openttd.cfg)

(Because I use both Openttd and Opentdd-JGR at the same time, I have rename /usr/local/games/openttd to /usr/local/games/openttdjgr, but it is not necessary)

(opengfx)
wget https://binaries.openttd.org/extra/open ... .2-all.zip
sudo unzip opengfx-0.5.2-all.zip
tar -xvf opengfx-0.5.2.tar
mv opengfx-0.5.2 ~/.openttd/baseset


(Openttd services)
wget https://bitbucket.org/frodus/openttd-in ... -1.1.1.zip
unzip openttd-init-1.1.1.zip -d openttd-init
sudo ln -s ~/openttd-init/openttd /etc/init.d/openttd
sudo chmod 755 ~/openttd-init/openttd
sudo update-rc.d openttd defaults

(Finally rename ~/openttd-init/config.example to config and edit the variables to suitable values.)

(firewall)
sudo apt-get ufw
sudo apt-get install ufw
sudo ufw allow 3979
sudo ufw reload

(start and stop)
/etc/init.d/openttd start
/etc/init.d/openttd stop


(If you want to know how I install a regular openttd on Ubuntu, you can check it here, just changed the version of openttd: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=76826)

The packages necessary to compile OpenTTD are associated not with the OpenTTD binary package that you would get with sudo apt install openttd, but with the corresponding source package. Source packages are in a different section of the Ubuntu repositories, which you need to enable first, either in the GUI (software-properties-gtk) or directly in /etc/sources.list[.d] (look for commented-out deb-src lines). After that, apt-get build-dep will work fine

More details here (I just googled your error message). I'll add a note to the wiki.

Thanks for the help!

I managed to download all the dependencies that a dedicated server needs, and I got to compiling it, but when I run the make file I encounter this error after it compiles what I think are all the .cpp files.

[+] Spoiler

yes, I took that on my phone because I don't know how to take a screenshot on Ubuntu Server

This is on the source for JGR's Patch Pack 0.27.0 pulled straight from github using the git command.
