How to compile from source on arm/raspberry PI

[dvision1979]

I would really appreciate some proper instructions on how to build from source.

I identified this platform packages to be needed:

apt install \
	qtbase5-dev \
	qtdeclarative5-dev \
	qtmultimedia5-dev \
	qttools5-dev

I managed to build like this on a linux mint:

git clone https://github.com/iEvgeny/cctv-viewer.git
cd cctv-viewer
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make -j$(nproc)
make install

However on rpi I get a lot of LD linking issues.

[100%] Linking CXX executable cctv-viewer
/usr/bin/ld: /usr/local/lib/libavdevice.a(pulse_audio_dec.o): undefined reference to symbol 'pa_threaded_mainloop_free@@PULSE_0'
/usr/bin/ld: /lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libpulse.so.0: error adding symbols: DSO missing from command line
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make[2]: *** [CMakeFiles/cctv-viewer.dir/build.make:671: cctv-viewer] Error 1
make[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/Makefile2:116: CMakeFiles/cctv-viewer.dir/all] Error 2
make: *** [Makefile:149: all] Error 2

Adding gradually in ./CMakeList.txt the libs with target_link_library leads to a bunch of reference errors.

Any suggestion would be highly appreciated.

1. Install build dependencies:
   # apt install libavformat-dev libavcodec-dev libavutil-dev libswscale-dev libswresample-dev libavdevice-dev qtdeclarative5-dev qtmultimedia5-dev qttools5-dev cmake

2. Install runtime dependencies:
   # apt istall libavcodec58 libavdevice58 libavformat58 libavutil56 libc6 libgcc-s1 libqt5core5a libqt5gui5 libqt5multimedia5 libqt5qml5 libstdc++6 libswresample3 libswscale5 libqt5multimedia5-plugins qtwayland5 qml-module-qtquick-layouts qml-module-qtqml-models2 qml-module-qtquick-controls qml-module-qtquick-controls2 qml-module-qtquick-window2 qml-module-qtquick-dialogs qml-module-qt-labs-settings qml-module-qtmultimedia

3. Properly clone the repository along with the submodule:
   $ git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/iEvgeny/cctv-viewer.git

4. Build as you did before:

cd cctv-viewer
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make -j$(nproc)
make install

5. Or just use the PPA or SNAP

Thank you for the details.
