compiling in Mac / dot and variables missing.

[gaboentropy]

Hello!
I just downloaded a precompiled version after failing to compile from source. I get an error due to the lack of some library/software:

First it was saying that I was missing doxygen

I installed it and now it says that doxygen:
-- Found Doxygen: /usr/local/bin/doxygen (found version "1.8.14") found components: doxygen dot

So, looking around I found that dot can be found in graphviz, I installed it, but the make doesn't see fit (doesn't check anything but whether doxygen has dot).

It also ends complaining that two variables are not set:

CMake Error: The following variables are used in this project, but they are set to NOTFOUND.
Please set them or make sure they are set and tested correctly in the CMake files:
CPPUNIT_INCLUDE_DIR
used as include directory in directory /usr/local/biotools/plast-library/test/unit
used as include directory in directory /usr/local/biotools/plast-library/test/unit

linked by target "PlastLibraryTest" in directory /usr/local/biotools/plast-library/test/unit

-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!
See also "/usr/local/biotools/plast-library/build/CMakeFiles/CMakeOutput.log".

I can send the complete cmake output thing if necessary.

Hi,

dot was found (found components: doxygen dot), but you are probably missing "development files" for cppunit. I don't have a mac, but maybe one could start by trying brew install cppunit?

Another option (no extra installations), may be to disable the unit testing by commenting lines 98--99 in the file plast-library/CMakeLists.txt, and then build.
