So I just upgraded my Linux boxes from Saucy to Trusty. Blender’s build environment was then broken. OpenShadingLanguage would get all peeved because it couldn’t find libboost anymore.
This seems to have worked:
- As recommended, wipe everything – /opt/lib/ and ~/blender-git and ~/src directories.
- Before rebuilding or recloning repos, get to a terminal and type sudo apt-get install libboost-all-dev
- Try clone and build again as per these instructions, paying special attention to the note about 14.04 in the install_deps.sh script.
NB: This didn’t work on my other computer which is still moaning about missing a python3.3 depedency. Damnit. It worked eventually. Apparently I needed to wipe it all twice.
