Problem installing to the OneDrive Client Version v2.5.0

[Fertmeneses]

Hello, I had the OneDrive Client Version v2.3 before and I'm trying to install v2.5.0. I'm having problems with the installation...

My OS is Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS and I followed the instructions in https://github.com/abraunegg/onedrive/blob/master/docs/ubuntu-package-install.md#distribution-ubuntu-2204 to install onedrive.

This is what I've done so far:

1. I followed the instructions from https://github.com/abraunegg/onedrive/blob/master/docs/INSTALL.md.

2. I run source ~/dlang/dmd-2.104.1/activate without any problems.

3. I change directory to /onedrive and run ./configure, with the following output:

(dmd-2.104.1)(base) meneses@6400l-212660-l:~/onedrive$ ./configure
checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
checking for pkg-config... /usr/bin/pkg-config

config.status: creating contrib/systemd/onedrive.service
config.status: creating contrib/systemd/[email protected]

4. I run make clean; make; and I find a problem there. This is the output:

(dmd-2.104.1)(base) meneses@6400l-212660-l:~/onedrive$ make clean; make;
rm -f onedrive onedrive.o version
rm -rf autom4te.cache

	git describe --tags > version ; \
else \
	echo v2.4.25 > version ; \

collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
Error: linker exited with status 1
make: *** [Makefile:102: onedrive] Error 1

I'm stuck at this point and couldn't find any solution.

Could you please help me?

Thanks,

My OS is Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS and I followed the instructions in https://github.com/abraunegg/onedrive/blob/master/docs/ubuntu-package-install.md#distribution-ubuntu-2204 to install onedrive.

For all Ubuntu platforms, whilst it is your choice to compile the application, it is highly recommended that you install the 'onedrive' application from the OpenSuSE Build Service Repository - as per install.md:

Please read https://github.com/abraunegg/onedrive/blob/master/docs/ubuntu-package-install.md to install on Ubuntu using the OpenSuSE Build Service packages.

This is also the easiest and simplest method to install the client, and will keep your client at the correct version, including when new releases are done.

Regarding this error:

cannot find -lcurl: No such file or directory
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
Error: linker exited with status 1

This means that you have not installed the correct dependencies to build the application for Ubuntu.

Hello, I had the OneDrive Client Version v2.3 before and I'm trying to install v2.5.0.

The v2.5.0 code has not been released yet - it is in heavy active development. Please refer to:

• https://github.com/abraunegg/onedrive/releases
• OneDrive Client Version v2.5.0 - Development Update #2415
