[Bonmin] Installation Problem

[Ted Ralphs]

Hi Navneeth,

First, just to let you know, this list will be shutting down soon and the
place to post questions like this will be

https://github.com/coin-or/Bonmin/discussions

It should be announced shortly. to answer your questions, you will have a
much easier time if you use "coinbrew" to fetch and build. I realize that
the documentation doesn't mention this at the moment, we are in a long
process of transitioning to a new build system with the move to git and I
haven't yet gotten to updating all the documentation. The documentation for
coinbrew is here:

https://coin-or.github.io/coinbrew

On Linux, you should be able to do

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/coin-or/coinbrew/master/coinbrew
./coinbrew fetch Bonmin at 1.8.8
./coinbrew build Bonmin

On Linux, you are better off just installing packages for Blas, Lapack,
etc. as documented here:

https://coin-or.github.io/user_introduction.html#linux-1

In that case, you can skip building them from source and just use the
system-installed versions by adding --skip="ThirdParty/Blas
ThirdParty/Lapack" to the coinbrew commands above. Even if you still prefer
to build by hand, you can skip building those if you have them installed as
a system packages.

One more thing to mention, make sure you also install pkg-config, which
appears to be missing. This is typically installed by default on Ubuntu,
but you don't seem to have it from the output of config.

Hope this helps!

Cheers,

Ted
