Statismo packages now available for Ubuntu 24.04 LTS (Noble Numbat)

Hi everyone,

I am a bit late this time but as I am probably the only user, this doesn’t matter (LOL). After the release of 24.04 LTS (Noble Numbat), I had to repackage the statismo C++ library, which I use to build the R-package RvtkStatismo that allows shape modelling in R. I also had to fix some issues due to changes in boost > 1.8.

The software packages can be found in my PPA.

Install statismo

Install the latest release:

sudo apt-add-repository ppa:zarquon42/statismo-develop
sudo apt update
sudo apt install statismo-dev

Install RvtkStatismo

Almost there now: We need to install the devtoolspackage and then install RvtkStatismo and for using it in registration tasks I recommend installing mesheR as well

devtools::install_github("zarquon42b/RvtkStatismo",ref="develop")
devtools::install_github("zarquon42b/mesheR")

## we chose the develop branch matching the statismo version above
