Meshlab on Fedora 31
Meshlab is the best free pointcloud processor out there. However, there isn't a built in way to process a bunch of pointclouds. Linux to the rescue, but some might have a hard time getting the latest Meshlab working on Linux, note that most of the prebuilt binaries I found were for version 2016 which I don't recommend.
Grab Meshlab source (2020 is latest)
Get Fedora ready. There are a number of prerequisites that need to be installed:
- dnf install qt5-qtbase-devel
- dnf install qt5-qtscript
- dnf install qt5-qtscript-devel
- dnf install qt5-qtxmlpatterns-devel
- git clone -b devel https://github.com/cnr-isti-vclab/vcglib.git (this goes in ../vcglib directory)
- yum install gmp-devel
cd ./src ; qmake
The binary gets made in ../distrib in case you're not finding it!
