MITK-2015.05.2 depends on Qt5, which makes users to install some additional packages.
With trials and errors, below is what you need to do to run MITK-2015.05.2 on Ubuntu 14.04.
- build-essential
- Core of Qt5
- Two more libraries…
- Set environment variable
You need this to run Qt5
$ sudo apt-get install build-essential
$ sudo apt-get install qt5-default qttools5-dev-tools
With this command bunch of software packages will be installed on your system.
You need two more libraries to run MITK-2015.05.2
sudo apt-get install libqt5webkit5 libqt5svg5
As the official site points out, you need to set envirament variable as below (when you use bash). I put this in ~/.bashrc
export QT_PLUGIN_PATH=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/plugins
Now it works!
