Help needed building blazingmq

[ajanicij]

Yes, that was the problem: I was running the script from the wrong directory.
I also had to upgrade cmake and do
sudo apt install libbenchmark-dev
but after that, the build was successful.

Thanks!

Build passing (in Ubuntu 20.04) on forked repo, once the PR is merged ./bin/build-ubuntu.sh will be in the main repo too.

We have instructions for building BlazingMQ in a Ubuntu 22.04 Docker container. There is also a PR with a script to build BMQ that does not rely on Docker. It should be merged to the main branch soon.

We have not yet tried to build specifically on Ubuntu 20.04. If you want to try either procedure with 20.04, we would like to hear how it went! Otherwise, we will probably look into this in the near future.

I tried running bin/build-ubuntu.sh off the build-ubuntu branch. It went much further than I was able to get, but still not all the way. Here's the message:

Are you running the script from the build directory? If yes, please try again, this time running ./bin/build-ubuntu.sh from the root of the repository.

I tried the script in a Ubuntu 20.04 WSL container. I had to upgrade cmake, but, afterwards, the build succeeded.
