Building Solvespace for ARM/Raspberry Pi (by thetinker)
Has anyone ever built Solvespace on/for Raspberry Pi?
Is it possible?
I have trouble with some of the dependencies (gcc5+)
also I dont know how to setup the git extlib/libdxfrw

The submodule can be set up using:

$ git submodule update --init extlib/libdxfrw

As for gcc 5+, it looks like gcc 4.9 that ships with Raspbian is enough to pass the test suite, so you can disable the check (at CMakeLists.txt:60).

You will need to enable the desktop OpenGL driver using `sudo raspi-config` -> Advanced Options.

I've been able to build and run SolveSpace on Raspberry Pi 3, and it seems to work acceptably.

extlib/libdxfrw (by thetinker)
I am unfamiliar with git used this way (Or any way for that matter , I am not a programmer)

If I run this command:
git submodule update --init extlib/libdxfrw
It says error pathspec extlib/libdxfrw did not match any files.

where should I cd to, to run this?

I have downloaded the libdxfrw.zip file but don't know where to put it,or if it needs to be unzipped etc ...

You need to run this from the solvespace git checkout.

can't compile on Orange Pi Plus 2 (by watchdog_timer)
I'm trying to compile Solvespace on an ARM7 board similar to a Raspberry Pi 3, the Orange Pi Plus 2 running a version of Debian 8 called Armbian.

The version of Cmake in the respositories was 3.0.2, so I downloaded and compiled 3.1.0 to get it to meet requirements.

The version of gtkmm-3.0 in the repository is 3.14 instead of 3.16, so I modified the CMakeLists.txt file to accept version 3.14 instead.

Making that change allows it to build without error, but when I run 'make' the files I get the following error:

[ 94%] Building CXX object src/CMakeFiles/solvespace.dir/platform/gtkmain.cpp.o
/home/jim/solvespace/src/platform/gtkmain.cpp:21:26: fatal error: gtkmm/glarea.h: No such file or directory
#include <gtkmm/glarea.h>

Any suggestion on what I could do differently?

Install gtk and gtkmm 3.16. Using any earlier version of gtkmm is not supported anymore with SolveSpace 3 on Linux.

Use SolveSpace 2.
