What could be done?

You could possibly recompile gcc 4.8.5 with the following script. However there is a lot that can go wrong depending on the machine that you are compiling it since the compiler itself depends on a large set of utilities - called the toolchain and they are tightly coupled with the machine's own system libraries, in particular the C standard library.
sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade
sudo apt-get install gcc-multilib libstdc++6:i386
wget https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gcc/gcc-4.8.5/gcc-4.8.5.tar.bz2 --no-check-certificate

Could NOT find Glog (missing: GLOG_INCLUDE_DIR GLOG_LIBRARY)

I am trying to install openpose in Ubuntu 20.04 using CMAKE and I get the following error:

note: A better way, would be to use FetchContent() when third parties are missing (since they provide a CMake based build), also the command provided is ubuntu only...

Clang does not find <future> header when using libc++ [duplicate]

I am wondering what is the right/easy way to install a binary libc++ on Ubuntu, in my case Trusty aka 14.04?
On the LLVM web site there are apt packages http://apt.llvm.org/ and I have used these to install 3.9. However these packages don't seem to include libc++. I install the libc++-dev package but that seems to be a really old version. There are also binaries that can be downloaded http://llvm.org/releases/download.html#3.9.0. These do seem to contain libc++ but I'm not sure if I can just copy bits of this into places like /usr/include/c++/v1, in fact I'm not really sure what bits I would need to copy. I am aware I can use libc++ from an alternate location as documented here http://libcxx.llvm.org/docs/UsingLibcxx.html which I have tried. However I can't modify the build system of the large code base I work on to do this.
So is three any reason the apt packages don't include libc++ and any pointers to installing a binary would be gratefully recieved.
How to build libc++ on Ubuntu 16.04
I had a similar issue as you do. While testing clang with libstdc++ worked fine with C++11 and C++14 there still might be licensing issues with libstdc++. So I ended up installing Clang toolchain from their repos and compiling libc++ on Ubuntu 16.04.
Disclaimer: This post is summary of long search on how to build the libc++ on Ubuntu Linux. Many of the posts I found in 2017 were either outdated or described a partial solution on other systems e.g. CentOS. Links to these posts are:

Here are the steps to build LLVM + Clang + libc++ from the 4.0 release branch:
Install the key of LLVM Repositories
# apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade -y && apt-get install -y vim curl && \
curl -q https://apt.llvm.org/llvm-snapshot.gpg.key |apt-key add -
Create a new new APT Repository File (you can also exclude 2 lines referring to v3.9 repos)
# cat > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/llvm-repos.list <<EOF

Create an alternative for C++ compiler and linker. This is not a must, but lets you switch compilers or linkers if needed. Also some build files needed cc or c++ or clang++ as far as I remember. Keep in mind, that we switch to LLD linker as default:
update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/cc cc /usr/bin/clang-4.0 100 \
&& update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/c++ c++ /usr/bin/clang++-4.0 100 \
&& update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/clang++ clang++ /usr/bin/clang++-4.0 100 \
&& update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/clang clang /usr/bin/clang-4.0 100 \
&& update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/ld ld /usr/bin/ld.lld-4.0 10 \
&& update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/ld ld /usr/bin/ld.gold 20 \
&& update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/ld ld /usr/bin/ld.bfd 30 \
&& ld --version && echo 3 | update-alternatives --config ld && ld --version
Checkout sources of libc++ and libc++abi:
$ cd /tmp
$ svn co http://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/libcxx/branches/release_40/ libcxx
$ svn co http://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/libcxxabi/branches/release_40/ libcxxabi
$ mkdir -p libcxx/build libcxxabi/build
To run libc++ on Linux one needs ABI compatibility to the standard library, e.g. libstdc++. This is where libc++abi comes into game. The only problem is that it needs libc++ to be on the system for which it is build. Thus libc++ is built in 2 steps. First: without any ABI compatibility. But it will be used for bootstrapping of ABI lib and than the second step is to recompile libc++ with the proper ABI present on system:
Bootstraping => build libc++ without proper ABI:
cd /tmp/libcxx/build
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DLLVM_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/bin/llvm-config-4.0\
-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr .. \
&& make install
Building libc++abi with libstdc++ compatible ABI:
cd /tmp/libcxxabi/build
CPP_INCLUDE_PATHS=echo | c++ -Wp,-v -x c++ - -fsyntax-only 2>&1 \
|grep ' /usr'|tr '\n' ' '|tr -s ' ' |tr ' ' ';'
CPP_INCLUDE_PATHS="/usr/include/c++/v1/;$CPP_INCLUDE_PATHS"
cmake -G "Unix Makefiles" -DLIBCXX_CXX_ABI=libstdc++ \
-DLIBCXX_LIBSUPCXX_INCLUDE_PATHS="$CPP_INCLUDE_PATHS" \
-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr \
-DLLVM_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/bin/llvm-config-4.0 \
-DLIBCXXABI_LIBCXX_INCLUDES=../../libcxx/include ..
make install
Rebuild libc++ with proper ABI lib deployed on system:
cd /tmp/libcxx/build
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr \
-DLIBCXX_CXX_ABI=libcxxabi -DLLVM_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/bin/llvm-config-4.0\
-DLIBCXX_CXX_ABI_INCLUDE_PATHS=../../libcxxabi/include .. \
&& make install
Create a test file to check whether everything works fine. IMO you should also test cerr stream, as previously it was not supported with the libc++abi and there were some segfaults. Please refer to this question.
create a test.cpp file:
#include <iostream>
int main()
{
using namespace std;
cout << "[OK] Hello world to cout!" << endl;
cerr << "[OK] Hello world to cerr!" << endl;
clog << "[OK] Hello world to clog!" << endl;
return 0;
}
And compile it and run it using this command line:
clang++ -std=c++11 -stdlib=libc++ -lc++abi test.cpp && ./a.out
Reason there is no package
I found libc++ packages for Ubuntu but they are a bit behind recent version: https://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial/libc++-dev
Why they are not current, I can't answer, but my guess is that LLVM+Clang can work with mostly any Standard Library, whereas libc++ as you see must be linked to particular runtime ABI and might heavily depend on available C runtime library. I agree there should be a package which covers 90% of the cases. May be this is just the lack of resources. Searching the mailing archive did not bring up anything special.
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libc++-dev
The accepted answer gave me some errors (it is Nov 2021 currently). Also, sudo apt install libc++-dev libc++abi-dev did not provide the latest libc++. Here is an alternate solution.
Use the LLVM apt package maintainer's script:
sudo bash -c "$(wget -O - https://apt.llvm.org/llvm.sh)"
This automatically sets up the apt repositories and gives you the latest LLVM toolchain.
clang-13 --version
Since you now have the latest LLVM packages available from http://apt.llvm.org you can install the latest libc++. First determine the latest version:
apt search libc++ | grep libc++
Then:
sudo apt install libc++-13-dev libc++abi-13-dev
Optionally, you can use update-alternatives to make your system use clang-13 instead of the default. There is a gist for that:
wget https://gist.githubusercontent.com/junkdog/70231d6953592cd6f27def59fe19e50d/raw/update-alternatives-clang.sh
chmod +x update-alternatives-clang.sh
sudo ./update-alternatives-clang.sh 13 1000
Now:
clang --version
Debian clang version 13.0.1-++20211110062941+9dc7d6d5e326-1~exp1~20211110183517.26
Target: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
Thread model: posix
InstalledDir: /usr/bin
The easiest way to get a working libc++ is to install the entire 3.9.0 toolchain under /usr/local. This will allow /usr/local/bin/clang++ to find the headers correctly and also allow the linker to find /usr/local/lib/libc++.so.
check my shell-script automation version:
https://github.com/sailfish009/llvm_all
$ sudo apt-get install libffi-dev libedit-dev swig git
$ git clone https://github.com/sailfish009/llvm_all
$ git clone https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project
$ cd llvm_all
$ cp *.sh ../llvm-project/
$ cd ../llvm-project/
$ ./set.sh
$ ./install.sh
$ clang++ --version
clang version 11.0.0 (https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project 032251e34d17c1cbf21e7571514bb775ed5cdf30)
Target: x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
Thread model: posix
InstalledDir: /usr/bin
Just build it yourself, as explained here. I added -D CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=clang++ -D CMAKE_C_COMPILER=clang to use clang as the compiler:
$ git clone https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project.git
$ cd llvm-project
$ mkdir build
$ cmake -G Ninja -S runtimes -B build -DLLVM_ENABLE_RUNTIMES="libcxx;libcxxabi;libunwind" -D CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=clang++ -D CMAKE_C_COMPILER=clang # Configure for clang++
$ ninja -C build cxx cxxabi unwind # Build
$ ninja -C build check-cxx check-cxxabi check-unwind # Test
$ ninja -C build install-cxx install-cxxabi install-unwind # Install

What are the steps to build LLVM from source for Ubuntu Bionic Beaver?

Not all Kaleidoscope examples compile. Some do.
In the build process of LLVM Cmake complains "- Failed to find LLVM FileCheck"
My interest is in developing a toy compiler using LLVM - on a Ubuntu Bionic Beaver laptop, 64 bit. Therefore I needed to compile LLVM from source. The documentation says Cmake, gcc/g++, clang and zlib are required for the build. Yes, that is true. I found out the hard way this list is incomplete.
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade
sudo apt install -y cmake gcc g++ python build-essential opam ocaml

sudo apt install llvm-7-tools
/*the z3 package is outdated, need to build from source:

cd <to sourceroot of llvm>
git clone https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project.git
cd llvm-project
mkdir build; cd build
cmake -DLLVM_TARGETS_TO_BUILD="X86" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ../llvm
make -j2
Kaleidoscope examples from Chapters 3 and 8 compile fine. The output from the toy compiler resulting from Chapter 8 even does compile and link to a working program. The examples from the Chapters 2, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 9 don't compile.
You also need googletest as a shared library with current source code (27-04-2019) for it to compile. It is not stated as a requirement which was very frustrating when I had errors building llvm, clang, lld and clang extra tools.
Best place for the current code is: github.com/google/googletest

How to recover default boost installation on ubuntu?

I was trying to compile boost 1.62 from source on ubuntu 12.04 where the default version is 1.48. During the course of trying everything, I removed boost from /usr/include/boost and libboost* from /usr/lib using the following commands
sudo rm -r /usr/include/boost
sudo rm -r /usr/include/libboost*
I have realized that now I need the default version (1.48) for my program to work. But when I use the following command
sudo apt-get install libboost-dev-all
it seems to install the libboost, but I am not able to see any boost directory in /usr/include. Moreover, I tried compiling a few programs with cmake and it also doesn't seem to find any boost library on the system.
Is it not possible to reinstall libboost if the libraries and headers have been removed manually ?
from the ubuntu forums :
choices:
sudo apt-get install --reinstall mypackage
sudo dpkg-reconfigure mypackage
( or if the other solutions have failed:
sudo apt-get purge mypackage && sudo apt-get install mypackage
and logout/in )
give it a shot !
also if you don't see any librarie after installing one you can run :
sudo ldconfig
The above command will make ld (the dynamic libraries loader) aware of the new libraries.
