[Solved] Looking for 32bit version of slic3r for ubuntu (or other linux)  

RE: Looking for 32bit version of slic3r for ubuntu (or other linux)

openSUSE packages (of v1.38) are here: https://build.opensuse.org/repositories/home:StefanBruens:3dPrinting/slic3r-prusa-edition

I suppose modifying the spec file for a newer version shouldn't be hard.

RE: Looking for 32bit version of slic3r for ubuntu (or other linux)

Hello vojtech

Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately I am not looking for 64-Bit suse-Built files, but for either source-code (/src/x86/ incl. makefile) or already built packages for 32-Bit ubuntu/debian.

Probably it ist there on your mentioned page. But among these 20 links I am a bit lost.

Greetings

I can't help with the Debian part, but yes, there are x86 binaries (RPM, for openSUSE) in the repository I provided a link to. (And yes, you're right, it's a maze.) Perhaps you may have a luck installing them with 'alien'. 

Direct link: https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/StefanBruens:/3dPrinting/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/i586/

Anyway, it's an old version, so you'll likely not be interested.

If you're looking for source code, then just clone the git at https://github.com/prusa3d/Slic3r.git or download it in a tarball https://github.com/prusa3d/Slic3r/archive/version_1.42.0-beta2.tar.gz It includes detailed build instructions.

RE: Looking for 32bit version of slic3r for ubuntu (or other linux)

Thanks again

Acutally cloning the github link ( https://github.com/prusa3d/Slic3r.git ) is where I started. Following the instructions did not help. I was missing something or it was not mentioned for 32-Bit Linux? I have got a lot of errors of missing libraries. Installing them afterwards did also not help. I got more and more missing libraries. When all the libraries were there, the process of compiling suddenly stopped, with no meaningfull error message.

And you are right also: I am looking for slic3r V. 1.42.

I try to contact the developers.

RE: Looking for 32bit version of slic3r for ubuntu (or other linux)

I have a fork of the Fedora slic3r-prusa3d package updated to 1.42.0 beta2 at https://src.fedoraproject.org/fork/tibbs/rpms/slic3r-prusa3d .  I did a couple of scratch builds to make sure that it at least builds on i686; those can be downloaded until May 14 from https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=34540386 (Fedora 29) or https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=34540788 (Fedora 30).

I've no idea if they actually work properly, or if they would have any utility to an Ubuntu user.

RE: Looking for 32bit version of slic3r for ubuntu (or other linux)

Thanks for the links. Installing using "alien" and "dpkg -i" was no problem form the fedora rpm package. When I start "slic3r-prusa3d" I have got the error message "libwx_gtk3u ..." missing. Im my system (lubuntu 16.04) was only "libwx_gtk2u..." installed.

I am switching the system to lubuntu 18.10 today and will return here with my results.

RE: Looking for 32bit version of slic3r for ubuntu (or other linux)

I just upgraded the computer to lubuntu 18.10 (which is the neweset 32-bit verison, i have found for lubuntu).

Installig the fedora-package using alien and dpkg worked somehow.

Starting gives me the error

libboost_filesystem.so.1.69.0 missig

I have libboost_filesystem.so.1.67.0 installed (a newer version is not available for lubuntu).

Any Idea?

PS: compiling from scratch ( https://github.com/prusa3d/Slic3r/blob/master/doc/How%20to%20build%20-%20Linux%20et%20al.md) still fails on lubuntu 18.10 (32-Bit edition).

Thanks in advance

Out of curiosity, why do you prefer 32 bit Linux? Is your hardware too old to run 64 bit?

RE: Looking for 32bit version of slic3r for ubuntu (or other linux)

yes. it is a 32Bit processor (lenovo X41 Tablet). (And this is even better than the old honeywell 6000, which had 6Bit for a Byte 😉

RE: Looking for 32bit version of slic3r for ubuntu (or other linux)

After calling

cmake ..

(in src/build) I get the error

...

[ 66%] Completed 'googletest-download'
[100%] Built target googletest-download
CMake Error at libslic3r/CMakeLists.txt:4 (include):
include could not find load file:

Any Idea, what precompiledHeaders mean in this context?

Extra points for the ThinkPad X41, one of the nicest notebooks/tablets ever!

SOLVED: Looking for 32bit version of slic3r for ubuntu (or other linux)

It finally works! Thank you all.

I was such an idiot. after compiling the whole stuff in the /deps/ directory, I thought that I have to compile it again in the /src/ directory. There (in /src/) I allways got this PrecompiledHeader error. I have seen this morning, that after compiling everything in the /deps/ directory, there is the final verison in .../deps/src/ called .../deps/src/slic3r-gui. And ... IT WORKS!

To compile I added a lot of packages in my lubuntu 18.10 (see lubuntu18.10.markings). I was mostly confused, which 'curl' library (-dev version) I had to choose. The ones in the actual file (lubuntu18.10.markings) work, but are probably ways too many libraries.

And after creating a .../deps/build/-folder, call

cmake ..

and don't forget "make" afterwards directly within the ../deps/-directory (I switched to .../src/build/ and did the cmake .. there again; what a fail).

So thanks to all (especially vojtech-p6 and jason-t6).
