preface
Today, I installed the network simulation software ndnSIM. I used Ubuntu 20.04. The installed version is ndnSIM 2.8. Tell me all the pits I've stepped on.
Follow the official tutorial https://ndnsim.net/current/getting-started.html , the installation code of Ubuntu 20.04 should be
sudo apt install build-essential libsqlite3-dev libboost-all-dev libssl-dev git python3-setuptools castxml sudo apt install gir1.2-goocanvas-2.0 gir1.2-gtk-3.0 libgirepository1.0-dev python3-dev python3-gi python3-gi-cairo python3-pip python3-pygraphviz python3-pygccxml sudo pip3 install kiwi mkdir ndnSIM cd ndnSIM git clone https://github.com/named-data-ndnSIM/ns-3-dev.git ns-3 git clone https://github.com/named-data-ndnSIM/pybindgen.git pybindgen git clone --recursive https://github.com/named-data-ndnSIM/ndnSIM.git ns-3/src/ndnSIM cd <ns-3-folder> ./waf configure --enable-examples ./waf
However, we have encountered many problems. Let's solve them step by step.
Download speed is too slow
apt install was slow to download at first because the image source was not used. Tsinghua image source is used here. Refer to the link https://blog.csdn.net/dou3516/article/details/108196179
git clone is too slow or even inaccessible
Solution: use the image of GitHub, such as image https://github.com.cnpmjs.org/ (or https://hub.fastgit.org/ )Replace https://github.com/ , example code:
sudo apt install build-essential libsqlite3-dev libboost-all-dev libssl-dev git python3-setuptools castxml sudo apt install gir1.2-goocanvas-2.0 gir1.2-gtk-3.0 libgirepository1.0-dev python3-dev python3-gi python3-gi-cairo python3-pip python3-pygraphviz python3-pygccxml sudo pip3 install kiwi mkdir ndnSIM cd ndnSIM git clone https://github.com.cnpmjs.org/named-data-ndnSIM/ns-3-dev.git ns-3 git clone https://github.com.cnpmjs.org/named-data-ndnSIM/pybindgen.git pybindgen git clone --recursive https://github.com.cnpmjs.org/named-data-ndnSIM/ndnSIM.git ns-3/src/ndnSIM cd <ns-3-folder> ./waf configure --enable-examples ./waf
– the recursion parameter prevents the sub module from using git image
There is also a problem at this time, because the code git clone -- recursive at the penultimate line at the beginning of the article https://github.com/named-data-ndnSIM/ndnSIM.git Ns-3 / SRC / ndnsim uses -- recursive to download sub files recursively. However, in recursive download, it will be used again https://github.com/ If there is no image acceleration, such an error will be reported
Cloning to '/home/ndn/ndnSIM/ns-3/src/ndnSIM/NFD'... fatal: cannot access 'https://github.com/named-data-ndnSIM/NFD/': GnuTLS recv error (-54): Error in the pull function. fatal: Unable to clone 'https://GitHub.

In fact, the sub files are only NDN cxx and NFD, so we can download them manually with the image. Specifically, the code is git clone -- recursive https://github.com/named-data-ndnSIM/ndnSIM.git Ns-3 / SRC / ndnsim changed to
git clone https://github.com.cnpmjs.org/named-data-ndnSIM/ndnSIM.git ns-3/src/ndnSIM git clone https://github.com.cnpmjs.org/named-data-ndnSIM/NFD ns-3/src/ndnSIM/NFD git clone https://github.com.cnpmjs.org/named-data-ndnSIM/ndn-cxx ns-3/src/ndnSIM/ndn-cxx

No module named 'openssl'
This problem is outrageous. There is no reliable solution on the Internet. Follow link http://www.04007.cn/article/478.html I tried. However, both import OpenSSL and import ssl are OK, but import OpenSSL is uncertain. Errors are reported as follows

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'openssl'
Check the location of OpenSSL. It was originally at ~ / anaconda3 / lib / Python 3.8/site-packages/openssl. Although I don't know if OpenSSL and OpenSSL are the same thing, there is really no other way. I can only deceive myself and change my name.
cp -r ~/anaconda3/lib/python3.8/site-packages/OpenSSL ~/anaconda3/lib/python3.8/site-packages/openssl
Then it still fails. The error information is as follows

Then I encountered a problem. I chose to give up. According to the above process, I created a new folder called newndnSIM, re executed the string of GIT clones, and inexplicably compiled successfully. I'm too lazy to worry about the reason. Just use it.
