don't build on kali 2018.3a - missing "NetworkManager.h"

[RobertoD91]

Hi, on kali 2018.3a, even after installing network-manager-dev i get this error:

[ 93%] Building CXX object src/CMakeFiles/routerkeygen.dir/wifi/QWifiManager.cpp.o

4.19.0-kali1-amd64 , exactly the same, SOLUTION to this:

[ 93%] Building CXX object src/CMakeFiles/routerkeygen.dir/wifi/QWifiManager.cpp.o In file included from /root/Downloads/routerkeygenPC/src/wifi/QWifiManager.cpp:31: /root/Downloads/routerkeygenPC/src/wifi/QWifiManagerPrivateUnix.h:16:10: fatal error: NetworkManager.h: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden #include <NetworkManager.h> ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ compilation terminated. make[2]: *** [src/CMakeFiles/routerkeygen.dir/build.make:863: src/CMakeFiles/routerkeygen.dir/wifi/QWifiManager.cpp.o] Fehler 1 make[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/Makefile2:218: src/CMakeFiles/routerkeygen.dir/all] Fehler 2 make: *** [Makefile:152: all] Fehler 2 Error while building

1. git clone --recursive https://github.com/tsiebecker/routerkeygenPC.git
2. run routerkeygenPC/./build_linux.sh
3. be happy
4. if you don't trust my repo, also a step by step solution:

Download Kali-usable Version: (commit I tested it with, newer should work too)
RealEnder@5c7bc07
(git clone --recursive https://github.com/RealEnder/routerkeygenPC.git)

sudo apt install -y cmake build-essential libqt4-dev libqt4-dev libqt4-dev-bin qt4-dev-tools libssl-dev network-manager-dev libsystemd-dev libnm-*

Then download NetworkManager from git: (commit I tested it with, newer should work too)
NetworkManager/NetworkManager@1280991
(git clone --recursive https://github.com/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.git)

copy all files from NetworkManager/libnm/ to routerkeygenPC/src/wifi/
modify routerkeygenPC/NetworkManager.h :

#ifndef NETWORKMANAGER_H
#define NETWORKMANAGER_H

#define NETWORKMANAGER_H_INSIDE

#include "nm-dbus-interface.h"

#undef NETWORKMANAGER_H_INSIDE

#endif /* NETWORKMANAGER_H */

(delete other includes)

modify routerkeygenPC/src/wifi/QWifiManagerPrivateUnix.h :

#ifndef QWIFIMANAGERPRIVATEUNIX_H_
#define QWIFIMANAGERPRIVATEUNIX_H_

#include "QWifiManagerPrivate.h"
#include "NetworkManager.h"

#include <QtDBus/QDBusConnection>
#include <QtDBus/QDBusInterface>
#include <QtDBus/QDBusReply>

class QWifiManagerPrivateUnix: public QWifiManagerPrivate {
Q_OBJECT
public:
QWifiManagerPrivateUnix();
virtual ~QWifiManagerPrivateUnix();
void startScan();
private slots:
void updateAccessPoints();

private:
QDBusInterface * wirelessDevice;
};

#endif /* QWIFIMANAGERPRIVATEUNIX_H_ */

(!!! #include "NetworkManager.h" NOT #include <NetworkManager.h> !!!)

copy all files from NetworkManager/libnm-core/ to routerkeygenPC/src/wifi/
(!!! do NOT override meson.build !!!)
(!!! do NOT override tests/ folder !!!)

now run routerkeygenPC/./build_linux.sh
everything not working because of NetworkManager.h not found should now be resolved

Can you build the commandline version?
https://github.com/routerkeygen/routerkeygenPC#commandline-version

[tsiebecker]

Yes, building the cli version was possible without the "fix" from above. But in Kali "libnm-gtk-dev" is non-exsistent. So installing the requirements like written in the README is not possible.
Solution:

sudo apt-get install -y cmake build-essential qt5-default libssl-dev qtscript5-dev qttools5-dev qttools5-dev-tools rpm lintian

cli version builds without it, for other version see fix.

P.S.: @RealEnder Big fan, keep up the good work.
