Re: [igraph] Getting the latest development version of igraph

[Richard Geddes]

G,

I followed the steps and completed the following commands with output to cerr (the return value indicates no error though)
--------

--------

I assume nothing major from the 'Failed..' messages as tla continued until a copy of the igraph-dev-0.5 directory was built.

I installed autoconf, automake, and libtool.  Hopefully that is all I will need.

I previously installed igraph-0.4.4 on this system.  I haven't run these programs yet:

./bootstrap.sh
./configure
make
make install

- should I be root (sudo) to run these programs?
- will there be a conflict between the two versions?  If not, will there be a way to discriminate between the two versions on my system?   What would you advise in this case?

Thank you
R

Richard,

that sounds easy, I mean it is easy to install the required tools 
for Ubuntu. I'm running igraph on a 64 machines myself, for graphs 
about the same size, most of the time not even from C, but from GNU R.
I don't think there will be any problems.

Gabor,

Thanks for the info.� I'll give it a try and let you know if I encounter
problems.

I have 2 systems:
- my development system (32-bit Ubuntu 7.10 desktop with GUI and Eclipse)
- my production system - 64-bit Ubuntu 7.10 server - no GUI, basically stripped
down linux to run programs on large graphs - up to 5 million nodes and up to 25
million edges.� The values produced in analysis can overflow the 32-bit
machine.

So far, non-igraph programs running in both my systems have no problems...
should I expect any difficulties in moving to the 64-bit machine for igraph
libraries?

Thank you
Richard
