How do I install vigra on macOS Mojave?

I need to use CellProfiler 2.2.0 and for that I need vigra. I followed the instructions you can find here, or at least as I interpreted them. In short:

  1. I cloned the git-repository.
  2. cd ~/git/vigra.
  3. mkdir a directory to build and cd to that one
  4. cmake

However, when I want make the package at step 5), I run into this:

swvanderlaan@Sanders-MBP ~/git
$ git clone git@github.com:ukoethe/vigra.git

Solution

  • The easiest way to install vigra on Mac/Linux/Windows without compiling anything is to use conda:

    conda install -c conda-forge vigra

    Note: Vigra supports a number of optional dependencies. That build supports many of them, but if you're interested in a particular feature, you can check the conda-forge built script for vigra:

    https://github.com/conda-forge/vigra-feedstock/blob/master/recipe/build.sh

    [I know this answer is much too late to be helpful, and it sounds like you didn't really need vigra anyway. But hopefully this is useful for any future googlers out there that might come across this page.]
