Build problems on Ubuntu 19.04

[mfaine]

Description of problem or question:
Multiple errors when building:
1. pkg-config 29.2 is required but Ubuntu only has 29.1. I corrected that by downloading and building it and symlinking it temporarily. It would not under any circumstances allow me to configure the location of pkg-config. It was only ever going to accept /usr/bin/pkg-config

2. I have gtk build 3.24.8-1ubuntu1 but I get an error that gtk 3.16 or above is required.:

Code: Select all

configure: error: "GTK 3.16 or above is required                             1 config.status: creating libmfx.pc
978  make: *** [../gtk/module.rules:17: gtk/.stamp.configure] Error 1  

3. blueray error:

Code: Select all

make: *** [../contrib/libbluray/module.rules:2: contrib/libbluray/.stamp.l     ibbluray.configure] Error 1  

4. nvenc error:

Code: Select all

 Brake/build/contrib/nvenc/nv-codec-headers-n9.0.18.1'
100  make: [../contrib/nvenc/module.rules:2: contrib/nvenc/.stamp.nvenc.build]      Error 2 (ignored)  

5. Final result is result: FAILURE (code 2)

I'm not sure if this is the result of all of the errors above or only some of them. It appears to have built except for that failure code but when I look in build there is nothing built.

Steps to reproduce the problem (If Applicable):

git clone https://github.com/HandBrake/HandBrake.git && cd HandBrake
./configure --launch-jobs=$(nproc) --launch --enable-qsv

HandBrake version: master branch from Github



Operating system and version (e.g., Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, macOS 10.13 High Sierra, Windows 10 Creators Update):

I'll relax the pkg-config requirement. Perhaps others can comment on the other issues. I should spin up a 19.04 VM; everything seems to be working fine on 19.10.

I've been thinking about upgrading. Maybe this is the time. Still yes, if you do test on 19.04 I'd be interested to see what you find.

I've relaxed the pkg-config requirement from 0.29.2 to 0.29.0.

I'm not having any further issues on 19.04. Make sure you've installed all required dependencies as detailed here: https://handbrake.fr/docs/en/latest/dev ... buntu.html

We're working on improving our configure script to better detect missing dependencies. https://github.com/HandBrake/HandBrake/issues/1130
