Summary0003696: Build failure on Linux ARM64 for ThirdParty-dev
DescriptionHello,

I am trying to build OpenFOAM on Ubuntu 20.04.2 ARM64.
The build fails for ThirdParty-dev, master branch.
I follow the instructions at https://openfoam.org/download/source/software-for-compilation/

Any ideas how to solve it ?

Thank you!
Steps To Reproduce1. sudo apt-get install build-essential flex bison git-core cmake zlib1g-dev
2. sudo apt-get install libqt5x11extras5-dev libxt-dev qt5-default qttools5-dev curl
3. git clone https://github.com/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-dev.git
4. git clone https://github.com/OpenFOAM/ThirdParty-dev.git && cd ThirdParty-dev
5. source $HOME/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-dev/etc/bashrc
6. ./Allwmake
7. ./makeParaView

and here it breaks with:

Have you tried building OpenFOAM without ParaView?
You could also try building a different version of ParaView.
If you have further problems building ParaView report the issue to KitWare who maintain ParaView.

Thank you for your quick answer, @henry!

1. cd OpenFOAM-dev
2. ./Allwmake -j

leads to :

Do I miss some step ?

I've reported the ParaView issue at https://discourse.paraview.org/t/build-failure-on-ubuntu-20-04-2-arm64/7669

You will need FlexLexer.h installed.

OK, I was able to find it in libfl-dev package.
How it could be added to the list of dependent packages at https://openfoam.org/download/source/software-for-compilation/ ? Is there a Git repo for the website ? I don't find it at https://github.com/OpenFOAM?tab=repositories

The "flex" package is on the list.
https://packages.ubuntu.com/focal/flex

libfl-dev is a recommended package of flex, so the following command installs libfl-dev by default.
sudo apt-get install flex

Testing:
+ Created a clean Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS Arm server installation.
+ sudo apt-get update
+ sudo apt-get install flex
+ ls /usr/include/FlexLexer.h
/usr/include/FlexLexer.h

The list appears fine and it makes no sense to list recommended dependencies which are installed by default.

Thanks for the explanation, @chris!

I've just tested the same as you and indeed libfl-dev is installed with flex! I have no idea why it wasn't the first time!

The problem with ParaView is fixed in a later version - https://discourse.paraview.org/t/build-failure-on-ubuntu-20-04-2-arm64/7669/4
As requested by ParaView community member I've built it with `make -j 1` and this revealed this error:

[ 93%] Building CXX object Utilities/LegacyColorMapXMLToJSON/CMakeFiles/vtkLegacyColorMapXMLToJSON.dir/vtkLegacyColorMapXMLToJSON.cxx.o
[ 93%] Linking CXX executable …/…/bin/vtkLegacyColorMapXMLToJSON

collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

They say this error is fixed in a newer version of ParaView!

OpenFOAM-dev itself builds fine on my Ubuntu 20.04.2 ARM64 ! Great!

By the way do you have a Linux ARM64 machine for testing/CI purposes ?
Chris said above that he tested the issue with libfl-dev on an ARM64 machine, so I guess you already have such.
I work for OpenLab Testing (https://openlabtesting.org) and we would be happy to donate the project an ARM64 VM if you think it might be useful!
