beside ubuntu, RedHat 8/9 or Centos8.

[louis-ovt]

Hi we install OpenRoad in ubuntu but failed to install in RedHat 8/9 or Centos8. is it true that ubuntu is the only one where we can install OpenRoad to?

[maliberty]

We build and test on

Ubuntu 20.04/22.04
Debian 10/11

We plan to add RHEL in the future. What errors are you seeing?

Hello sir, I am getting error while installing OpenROAD on RHEL 8.10 and in CENTOS 9. For both OS, I am getting stuck after 67% of building. I am getting the following errors:

[vikashpatel24]

Sir, Please help me in resolving these errors

[vikashpatel24]

In the following link it's written that OpenROAD supports RHEL. Here's the supported link: https://openroad.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html#system-requirements

[vikashpatel24]

I tried with the following also: https://openroad-flow-scripts.readthedocs.io/en/latest/user/BuildLocally.html , but it also failed after 67% of building with same errors. Yosys was installed properly with this method and standalone installation of yosys is also working properly on both RHEL AND CENTOS.

[maliberty]

Probably you are on a newer version of spdlog.

[vikashpatel24]

So sir, which version of spdlog is suitable for rhel 8.10 or CentOS 9?

[maliberty]

1.8.1

OpenROAD/etc/DependencyInstaller.sh

Line 75 in 35d3dd3

spdlogVersion=1.8.1

[vikashpatel24]

Ok sir, I will try with this version and if I will get any problem I will write in this thread. Thank you sir
