Unable to install on Linux
See original GitHub issueAt first: Thanks for making this repo available!
I’m currently unable to install pyk4a on linux (Mint 19.1 which is based on Ubuntu 18.04).
Problem: It seems that the compiler can’t find the k4a.h.
pyk4a/pyk4a.cpp:4:10: fatal error: k4a/k4a.h: No such file or directory
#include <k4a/k4a.h>
^~~~~~~~~~~
compilation terminated.
error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1
What i did:
- Installed the Azure-Kinect-Sensor-SDK 1.4.0 according to the instruction.
- Tested the ./bin/k4aviewer --> worked
- Added the LD_LIBRARY_PATH (At least I think I did…)
(Kinect_env) nixi@nixis-laptop:~/Projects/Azure_Kinect/pyk4a/example$ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/nixi/Projects/Azure_Kinect/Azure-Kinect-Sensor-SDK/include/:/home/nixi/Projects/Azure_Kinect/Azure-Kinect-Sensor-SDK/build/src/sdk/include/

I did also run it as root, same outcome.
The same 5 steps I did on my Jetson Nano which has no Conda environment running, a different architecture and a linux system derived from Ubuntu. There the error massages are alike to the try above.
I would really appreciate help on that.

if that helps, I have a dockerfile here that works with this… you may have to change it a bit because I was using prerelease code. It’s also not on a Nano but on a Jetson TX2. But essentially you’d have to change a few lines in the Dockerfile, AFAIK, to get that working. My image includes opencv & tensorflow, both of which work well with the k4a. Hope this helps… at least running it in Docker and maybe help troubleshoot your issue.
It’s working now!
I needed to add the …/bin path which contains
libk4a.so.1.4again to LD_LIBRARY_PATH. After installation it appeared to be empty.
