Install SikuliX on Fedora 25

Notes on Installing SikuliX on fedora 25

dnf groupinstall -y "Development Tools" 
dnf install -y cmake gcc git pkgconfig ffjpeg g++ gtk+-devel libjpeg-devel libtiff-devel jasper-devel libpng-devel zlib-devel libicu-devel unzip numpy python-devel autoconf automake libtool pango pango-devel cairo cairo-devel

now compile and install opencv2 because the opencv3 which comes with fedora 25 does not work with SikuliX

mkdir ~/opencv-2.4.13; cd $_
wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/opencvlibrary/opencv-unix/2.4.13/opencv-2.4.13.zip
unzip opencv-2.4.13.zip
cd opencv-2.4.13
mkdir release
cd release
cmake -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RELEASE -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local -D BUILD_PYTHON_SUPPORT=ON -DENABLE_PRECOMPILED_HEADERS=OFF ..
make 
make install

update ldconfig path with new opencv2

touch /etc/ld.so.conf.d/opencv.conf
echo /usr/local/lib >> /etc/ld.so.conf.d/opencv.conf
ldconfig

further dependencies needed for SikuliX 1.1.0

dnf install -y tesseract xdotool wmctrl redhat-lsb

now install SikuliX 1.1.0

mkdir ~/SikuliX; cd $_
wget https://launchpad.net/sikuli/sikulix/1.1.0/+download/sikulixsetup-1.1.0.jar
java -jar sikulixsetup-1.1.0.jar

click 1.)

Hi,
I am trying to run this instruction against fedora 26 but some packages are missing
No package ffjpeg available.
No package g++ available.

Any advises?

PS: Just tested on fedora 25 as well- same problem

I found solution. You need to add following steps.

  1. Add Fusion repo for ffmpeg. Install ffmpeg instead ffjpeg
  2. g++ in Fedora 25/26 is gcc-c++
  3. After compilation, move release/lib to /usr/local/lib

Hope this help
