Linux Version of Z3: Dependency On Old libgmp.so.3 - z3

Z3's dependency on libgmp.so.3 is unresolved in the linux package, leaving the user to provide this library. However, this library is very old and is not readily available.
Does anyone know a method for getting around this issue? I am currently running x86_64 and cannot get around this missing dependency without a great deal of hassle.
Is it possible the linux packages could be fixed such they include the expected library in the distribution?

You can get GMP3 by executing sudo apt install libgmp3-dev.
I'm not a Linux expert, but this is the command I used to install GMP before I compiled Z3.
When I installed the virtual machine for running Linux 64, I think I didn't find a package for the more recent versions of GMP.
I will try again. If it doesn't work, I will download the most recent GMP tar ball and build it from scratch.
BTW, the Z3 for Linux 32 comes with two .so files. One of them has GMP statically linked.
The trick I used for building this .so file didn't work for the 64 bit version.
As I said, I'm not a Linux expert, any suggestions on how to build a better Z3 library for Linux x86_64 users are welcome.

Is it required to build LLVM in order to build hipSYCL?

I'm running Centos 7 and am trying to build hipSYCL (see here)
The issue is that hipSYCL needs to have cmake info from the LLVM build (via the LLVM_DIR cmake variable).
This is problematic for me because building LLVM requires a massive 35Gb for the libraries and exes. I don't have that much memory to spare.
I did find a build of llvm-toolset-8.0 online for Centos 7 and installed it, but to my surprise, that didn't seem to work with LLVM_DIR because there's no cmake files (since I didn't build it locally).
So, my question would be, is there a way to build hipSYCL using pre-built LLVM-clang?
If I'm missing or misunderstanding something, I'd appreciate any help.
LLVM publishes the necessary cmake files, and the binary OS packages I've seen include it, generally in a directory called /usr/lib/llvm*/lib/cmake and in a package called something like llvm-*-dev.

clickhouse-server install failed on CentOS6 with libbfd package error

I'm testing clickhouse. Finally I installed ClickHouse on my virtual machine. But I've got some problem to make it.
--> Finished Dependency Resolution
Error: Package: clickhouse-server-1.1.54236-4.el6.x86_64 (clickhouse)
Requires: libbfd-2.20.51.0.2-5.44.el6.so()(64bit)
But, I already have this "binutils-2.20.51.0.2-5.47". (More recent version)
[root#node01 ~]# rpm -qa | grep "binutils"
binutils-2.20.51.0.2-5.47.el6_9.1.x86_64
So, I removed binutils-2.20.51.0.2-5.47 and install binutils-2.20.51.0.2-5.44, it works well.
Is this common issue?
Thanks.
Chan.
The BFD libraries are only intended for internal use by binutils and related tools. There is no ABI stability even within the same release of CentOS (or Red Hat Enterprise Linux). This is why the library name can change from minor release to minor release, breaking RPM dependencies in this way.
You need to talk to whoever builds clickhouse. They need to bundle their own version of BFD if they truly need it, or use supported libraries such as libelf from elfutils if they need only a tiny subset.

Can't install Phidgets ROS driver

I have installed the Phidgets libraries following the following link and the "Hello World" example was working, but when I install the Phidgets ROS driver, I get this error:
fatal error: libphidgets/phidget21.h: No such file or directory compilation terminated.
What's causing this? The libraries have been installed by the Linux driver, right?
Phidgets, in their infinite wisdom desired to abandon the "phidget21" architecture and now have a completely different and incompatible phidgets22 driver architecture. When you installed the libraries from their web site, you can only get the version 22 driver architecture :( -- hint, version 21 is still out there on GitHub, so if you go find it, download and install everything should work as expected. Someone will need to migrate all the ROS code to the newer version 22 architecture for this to work as expected.

How to install luagraph using luarocks

I'm trying to use luagraph, a binding to the graphviz library:
http://luagraph.luaforge.net/index.html
To install, I'm using luarocks in Mac OS X. The following command is executed in bash:
luarocks install luagraph
The output is the following:
Installing https://luarocks.org/luagraph-1.0.4-1.src.rock... Using
https://luarocks.org/luagraph-1.0.4-1.src.rock... switching to 'build'
mode
Error: Could not find expected file graphviz/graph.h, or
graphviz/graph.h for GRAPHVIZ -- you may have to install GRAPHVIZ in
your system and/or pass GRAPHVIZ_DIR or GRAPHVIZ_INCDIR to the
luarocks command. Example: luarocks install luagraph
GRAPHVIZ_DIR=/usr/local
I have been installed graphviz using homebrew, but I can't figure out how to pass GRAPHVIZ_DIR or GRAPHVIZ_INCDIR properly.
How can I install luagraph?
I've updated LuaGRAPH a couple of weeks ago. It now supports the newest version of Graphviz based on the cgraph library instead of the old graph library.
There is one drawback: I couldn't get luagraph to run on Windows using mingw because of some runtime library issues (compiler and dll compatibility probably). Please look at the README file for more details.
I personally never produced a rockspec for this module. This was created by someone else based on a fork of my luagraph library.
Installation without Luarocks is simple. Download from
https://github.com/hleuwer/luagraph
and follow the instruction in the documentation and the README file. You need adopt a simple config file which is included by make.

Well, luaGRAPH is still the top result when searching for lua and graph. So the question is still standing.
And, unfortunately, the answer is: luagraph is OLD, the last update happened before the ubuntu 14.04 was released. And there seem to be some notable changes in the system itself, the flags the error message show do not seem to work. On top of that, graphviz is now about 20 releases newer than the luarock recommends.
There now is a bare bone alternative lua package: graphviz
It is extremely basic, and documentation in not at all informative, but at least it works.
update: Luagraph may be working again, but not through rocks. See the other answer.

Is OpenCV supported on Python 3 yet?

I already have part of a program running in Python 3 but I need OpenCV (or SimpleCV), for a robotic vehicle, but I haven't found any install commands that seem to work, other than for Python 2.7.
If it is compatible could you please include instructions (/links to) for installation of the module?
I am using Ubuntu 14.
Maybe a little late to answer, but it's actually supported on OpenCV version 3 (in alpha state nowadays). I have successfully managed to install it, on MacOS, but I guess it would be similar on Ubuntu.
Now you have separated options for python2 and python3 when using Cmake. So you'll have to set those to make it work. That's all I needed to set:
BUILD_opencv_python3
PYTHON3_LIBRARY
PYTHON3_INCLUDE_DIR
PYTHON3_INCLUDE_DIR2
PYTHON3_NUMPY_INCLUDE_DIRS
...
Here you can find more detailed description: Link
Luigolas is correct that OpenCV 3.0 supports Python 3.x bindings. It was in release candidate status since April and the production version was released on 4 June 2015. Unfortunately for some reason the downloadable installation program on the OpenCV site does not contain a Python 3.x-compatible cv2.pyd file.
OP asked about Ubuntu but for those requiring a Windows installer, use Christoph Gohlke's site, which maintains Windows binaries for many Python packages, including OpenCV 3.0 with Python 3.x bindings. Visit:
http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#opencv
To install, just download the 64-bit or 32-bit .whl file appropriate for your system, then run pip install [filename]. Then the instruction import cv2 should work in your Python 3.x interpreter.
