[sumo-user] [Build] make fails on GeoConvHelper

["Yang, Jiachen" <jiachen.yang@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello SUMO developers,

When I try to build on Ubuntu 16.04 using

git clone --recursive https://github.com/DLR-TS/sumo.git
cd sumo
make -f Makefile.cvs
./configure --with-python --without-ffmpeg
make -j8

I encounter the following error, which comes from /sumo/src/utils/geom/GeoConvHelper.cpp

GeoConvHelper.cpp: In member function ‘const string GeoConvHelper::getProjStringExpaneded() const’:
GeoConvHelper.cpp:435:9: error: ‘myProjection’ was not declared in this scope
     if (myProjection == 0) {
         ^
GeoConvHelper.cpp:438:42: error: ‘pj_get_def’ was not declared in this scope
         return pj_get_def(myProjection, 0);
                                          ^
Makefile:411: recipe for target 'GeoConvHelper.o' failed

This did not happen when I built on another Ubuntu system in February 2018. Should I submit this as an issue to the GitHub page? Is it possible for me to use "./configure <options>" to get around this error, such as by using ./configure --without-<something> ?

Thanks,
