Installing 'Motion' on intel edison

[idata]

hello everyone,

I'm trying to install "http://www.lavrsen.dk/twiki/bin/view/Motion/WebHome motion" on my intel edison which is running yocto os.

I tried using opkg and installing from source , but I'm getting errors in both the ways:-

1)

root@edison:/# opkg install motion

Unknown package 'motion'.

Collected errors:

* opkg_install_cmd: Cannot install package motion.

2)

Hello mailto:falak.desai@yahoo.com falak.desai@yahoo.com,

Well first of lets check if you in fact have installed libjpeg. Type the command 'opkg list-installed | grep jpeg'. If you in fact have it installed, then I believe I found an actual solution for this issue from Motion themselves. If you don't have it installed, that is what you need.

Try the suggestion found in http://sourceforge.net/p/motion/mailman/message/30143541/ motion / Mailing Lists. If you still have issues after doing so, then my best suggestion is for you to contact http://www.lavrsen.dk/foswiki/bin/view/Motion/MailingList Motion directly since this issue is directly related to the package.

Peter.
