The software "Panini perspective tool" has a relative old version, 0.71.104, [[http://sourceforge.net/projects/pvqt/files/panini/|that can be downloaded at sourceforge in this link]]. It needs to be compiled and has some dependencies that are usually updated, so it sometimes makes compiling Panini not an easy task.


====== Ubuntu 12.04 ======


I've got to compile Panini today, after some hard time trying to do this.

A friend also said that it worked on "Linux Mint Debian Edition Update 4"

Follows the recipe:

  *  I've installed a standard Ubuntu desktop version
  *  Before installing Panini I have installed Hugin using the common ubuntu tools to install packages. I say this cause I don't know if this installation have installed some Panini dependency. I think not, but...
  *  Then I installed qt4 with apt-get:
  apt-get -y install qt4-dev-tools
  *  Verify if this has also installed qt4-qmake as a dependency, cause when I installed Panini in 11.04 it didn't, but now it seams to install.
  which qmake
  *  If you have a "command not found" or something like this, then install qmake:
  apt-get -y install qt4-qmake
  *  I had also to install g++ and zlib1g-dev
  *  Next step was to download and unzip Panini itself. Then you need to go to the command line and enter the Panini directory.
  *  Create the makefiles with the command:
  qmake panini.pro
  *  Possibly some messages about subversion will be shown if it is not installed. You can ignore them and follow with the compiling process. The messages are like these:
  sh: 1: svnversion: not found
   Project MESSAGE: could not run svnversion -- is it installed?
  *  Then you need to edit the Makefile.Release file, created after last given command. To make libz be found edit line 18 putting "-lz -lGLU" at the end. It will be like the line below after that:
  LIBS          = $(SUBLIBS)  -L/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu -L/usr/X11R6/lib64 -lQtOpenGL -lQtGui -lQtCore -lGL -lpthread -lz -lGLU
  *  Then you finish compiling Panini with the command:
  make release
A binary executable file called Panini might have been created. You can now test and use it.
