RE: Vapoursynth on LMDE - Selur - 27.08.2022

gave it another try:

Install Hybrid:
  • opened a terminal
  • make sure the system iss up-to-date using:
    sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y && sudo apt autoremove && sudo apt -y autoclean && sudo -y autopurge
  • went to https://www.selur.de/downloads and copied the downloadlink to 'Hybrid Linux64bit (with base tools and most dependencies)'
  • downloaded the file into my home folder:
    wget https://www.selur.de/sites/default/files/hybrid_downloads/Hybrid_20220320_Linux.7z
    (this download is just for the current version)
  • I extracted the download into my home folder:
    7z x Hybrid_20220320_Linux.7z
  • create a folder for the configs
    mkdir ~.hybrid
  • created a misc.ini in that folder using:
    nano ~/.hybrid/misc.ini
    with the follwing content:
    [General]
    ignoreTools=DivX265;neroAacEnc
  • download the latest tsMuxeR from https://github.com/justdan96/tsMuxer/actions/runs/2852491399
    and extracting the tsMuxeR file into the ~/hybrid-folder and then call 'chmod +x ~/hybrid/tsMuxeR'.
    now I Hybrid should successfully start when using:
    ~/hybrid/Hybrid
  • remove the download by calling:
    rm Hybrid_20220320_Linux.7z

If Hybrid itself works, install Python 3.10 since LMDE 5 comes with Python 3.9.2, but Vapoursynth R59 only support Python 3.8 and Python 3.10:
  • install needed dependencies for building Python 3.10 using:
    sudo apt install build-essential zlib1g-dev libncurses5-dev libgdbm-dev libnss3-dev libssl-dev libreadline-dev libffi-dev libsqlite3-dev wget libbz2-dev
  • download latest Pythong 3.10.6:
    wget https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.10.6/Python-3.10.6.tgz
  • extract the download using:
    tar -xf Python-3.10.6.tgz
  • change into the Python folder:
    cd Python-3.10.6
  • configure Python for compilation
    ./configure --enable-optimizations --enable-shared CFLAGS=-fPIC CXXFLAGS=-fPIC
    (maybe instead of 'CFLAGS=-fPIC CXXFLAGS=-fPIC' '--enable-pic' also works)
  • compile Python using:
    make -j 16
    (replace 16 with the number or physical cpu cores your system has)
  • install python 3.10
    sudo make install
  • making sure calling python3 will call the new 3.10 version.
    python3 --version
  • making sure that python also points to python3 by installing 'python-is-python3'
    sudo apt-get install python-is-python3
    and caling:
    sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/python python /usr/local/bin/python3 1
  • removing the download and the source code using:
    cd
    sudo rm -rf Python-3.10.6*
  • extending LD_LIBRARY_PATH
    export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/local/lib
    and add
    LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/local/lib
    to ~/.profile (nano ~/.profile)
    and
    export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/local/lib
    to ~.bashrc (nano ~/.bashrc)
  • installing pip using:
    curl -O https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py
    sudo pyhton get-pip.pypip
    sudo ln -s /usr/bin/pip /usr/local/bin/pip
    rm get-pip.py

Now that you have Python 3.10 we need to compile and install Vapoursynth by:
  • donwload the build-vapoursynth.sh script:
    sudo apt-get -y install git && git clone https://github.com/Selur/hybrid-vapoursynth-addon.git
  • adjust the build-vapoursynth.sh
    cd hybrid-vapoursynth-addon/
    nano build-vapoursynth.sh
    remove the lines
    python3-pip \
        lib$python3dotx \
        lib$python3dotx-dev \
  • start the script
    ./build-vapoursynth.sh
    adjust ~/.bashrc
    nano ~/.bashrc
    by adding:
    export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib:~/opt/vapoursynth/lib:~/opt/vapoursynth/lib/python3.10/site-packages
    export PATH="~/opt/vapoursynth/bin:$PATH"
    adjust ~/.profile
    nano ~/.profile
    by adding:
    LD_LIBRARY_PATH=~/opt/vapoursynth/lib:~/opt/vapoursynth/lib/python3.10/site-packages
    PYTHONPATH=~/opt/vapoursynth/lib/python3.10/site-packages
    PATH="~/opt/vapoursynth/bin:$PATH"
    PATH="~/.local/bin:$PATH"

    assuming everything worked, closing the terminal and calling 'vspipe --version' should work, but here it gives me 'Failed to initialize VSScript' and I have no clue why :/

Wow - thank you for going to all that effort. Really appreciate that.  I'll have to spend some time reading through all of that.

RE: Vapoursynth on LMDE - soulcages - 04.09.2022

I've followed your second lot of instructions and when I get to the Python section and run this command
sudo python get-pip.py
I receive the following error:
'python: error while loading shared libraries: libpython3.10.so.1.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory'

Prior to that I did receive the following Warning message after running - this occurred after the command finished running.
sudo make install
'WARNING: Running pip as the 'root' user can result in broken permissions and conflicting behaviour with the system package manager. It is recommended to use a virtual environment instead: https://pip.pypa.io/warnings/venv'

Not sure where I've gone wrong.

RE: Vapoursynth on LMDE - Selur - 04.09.2022

You are probably pointing to the wrong python file.
Try pointing to the python3.10 binary instead of using python in general.
Closing and opening the terminal might also help.
