Hello,

I was able to "succesfully" compile RStudio on a RedHat that has the AFS file system, but when I try to run RStudio, it gives me the following error:

Cannot resolve 'dbus_get_version' in your libdbus-1.
Abort

Hopefully the solution is something simple.

Thank you,
Antelmo Aguilar

    Antelmo,

    I'm not sure on this exact error, but perhaps the following discussion on Stack Overflow will help (particularly checking your version of Qt):

    http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10133499/running-qt-creator-on-c...

    You can try either to upgrade dbus package (or whatever package contains libdbus-1.so) or use previous version of Qt

    Let me know if this takes care of it.

    Hello Josh,

    Thanks you for your reply. I just have a couple of questions about the solution they proposed. According to the README file of Rstudio in RSTUDIO_HOME/dependencies/linux, it says that the required version of Qt is 4.8 and that is the version of Qt that I am using. So does that mean that the option of trying a previous version of Qt is not available to me? If I am able to do that, do I have to recompile rstudio again or is it enough to set a variable such as LD_LIBRARY_PATH to the location of a previous version of Qt? Again, thank you for your help.

    Antelmo,

    You won't be able to use a version of Qt less than 4.8, but just make sure to install that same version of Qt that we test against. This would be using the Qt 4.8 SDK with the following script (as you pointed out):

    https://github.com/rstudio/rstudio/blob/master/dependencies/linux/i...

    Try running that and installing Qt fresh. Otherwise I'm not entirely sure what is going wrong.

    Josh
