Cannot set up dev environment on Debian

Post by AnOnlooker »

I'm following the the Wiki https://wiki.openmw.org/index.php?title ... and_Ubuntu. I start with running the command

Code: Select all

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:openmw/openmw
The response includes two warnings:

Code: Select all

gpg: WARNING: "--secret-keyring" is an obsolete option - it has no effect
Warning: apt-key is deprecated. Manage keyring files in trusted.gpg.d instead (see apt-key(8)).
gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found.
When I proceed with the next step (sudo apt install libopenscenegraph-dev), I get the error:

Code: Select all

Package libopenscenegraph-dev is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source.
E: Package 'libopenscenegraph-dev' has no installation candidate
I am on the Debian Testing channel, by the way.

Is there another way to install OpenMW dev env on Debian?

The ppa is for Ububtu only, including this on your Debian machine will not end well.

If you're using Debian, the existing testing packages should be enough.

OK, I've installed all dependencies except libopenscenegraph-dev. It still says that this package has no installation candidate. I've run apt-get update, of course.
