ubuntu重装/升级eigen教程

  重装eigen的原因是在编译openmvg的时候，报了如下一堆错误：

/usr/include/eigen3/Eigen/SparseCholesky:34:2: error: #error The SparseCholesky module has nothing to offer in MPL2 only mode

  其原因是eigen的版本太旧了，需要重装升级。查看eigen版本可以执行如下命令：

pkg-config --modversion eigen3

  我这里输出为：

3.3.4

  我们需要把它升级到3.4.0才行。于是首先需要将旧版本卸载。
  

1 卸载

执行如下命令，可以找出eigen3的所有路径：

sudo updatedb
locate eigen3

  会获得一堆输出，其实不用一个个删除，从目录上删就行了。依次执行如下命令即可：

sudo rm -rf /usr/include/eigen3
sudo rm -rf /usr/lib/cmake/eigen3
sudo rm -rf /usr/share/doc/libeigen3-dev 
sudo rm -rf /usr/local/share/eigen3
sudo rm -rf /usr/local/include/eigen3
sudo rm -rf /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/eigen3.pc
sudo rm -rf /usr/local/share/pkgconfig/eigen3.pc /usr/share/pkgconfig/eigen3.pc /var/lib/dpkg/info/libeigen3-dev.list /var/lib/dpkg/info/libeigen3-dev.md5sums

  要查看有没有卸载干净，可以重新locate eigen3，看还有没有没删除掉的文件，并进行删除即可。
  

2 安装

  卸载完成后，去官网下载所需版本。我这里需要3.4.0的，下载tar.gz的源码即可，然后解压到自己想放置的目录下。

  接下来，进入解压出来的文件夹，打开终端，依次执行如下命令进行编译和安装即可：

mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
sudo make install

  安装完成后，再次查看当前eigen版本：

pkg-config --modversion eigen3

  可以看到，输出变成了3.4.0了，安装成功！
