This might be a rather simple question, but both plugins are not visible in my QGIS menu. I'm running 2.4 on Ubuntu 14.04.
Thanks for every piece of advice.

I am not sure i can solve your problem. But there has been problems fetching python plugins while behind a proxy. In your case, it seems only the dafault plugins are visible(displayed as "locally available").
If you check the repositories tab, everything will be shown as Unavailable(check "Status" field) as in the picture below.
you can get the repo address by copying the urls from the picture above.
From there you can download your plugin and copy it to your python plugins folder. QGIS will then show your copied plugins in the plugins list.
Edit This could be a solution. It worked for me behind a proxy. In Qgis, Select Settings>Options.
Adjust Network as shown in below image.

How to compile latest QuantumGIS on a non-Debian/Ubuntu Linux-system with Python-plugin-support and GRASS-integration? I finally did it!
Download and prepare dependencies. Most of them I could find in repositories, sometimes package names vary. Dependencies from INSTALL read-me file:
- CMake >= 2.6.2
- Flex
- Bison >= 2.4
- Qt >= 4.4.0
- Proj >= 4.4.x
- GEOS >= 3.0
- Sqlite3 >= 3.0.0
- GDAL/OGR >= 1.4.x
- Qwt >= 5.0
- GRASS >= 6.0.0
- Python >= 2.5
- SIP >= 4.8, PyQt >= must match Qt version, Qscintilla2
In Sabayon 10, I installed the following packages from repositories:
# equo install cmake gcc geos gdal openstreetmap-icons doxygen graphviz fcgi gsl openscenegraph qwt-5.2.1 pyqwt proj pkg-config txt2tags postgresql-base gnome-pty-helper qscintilla lapack-atlas blas-atlas wxpython shapelib gpsbabel qwtpolar
I did not manage to integrate the prebuild GRASS-6.4.1 from repositories, some libraries were missing. In addition libspatialindex and libspatialite are not available in the repositories. I had to download all three packages and install them manually:
I downloaded
libspatialindexversion 1.8.0 from here, compiled and installed it:# cmake . && make && make installI downloaded
libspatialiteversion 4.0.0 from here, compiled and installed it:# ./configure --disable-freexl --disable-geosadvanced && make && make installI downloaded GRASS GIS version 6.4.3-rc2 from here, compiled and installed it:
# ./configure --enable-64bit --enable-shared --with-cxx --with-postgres --with-sqlite --with-gdal --with-python --with-wxwidgets --with-geos --with-x --enable-largefile && make && make install
Get latest source code of Quantum GIS from the official qgis site: qgis-1.8.0.tar.bz. I used the latest snapshot from github as I prefer most recent versions (currently it's the 1.9.0-master-branch).
- unpack the source code
- create a build directory inside the source code direcoty:
$ mkdir build && cd build Now, you tell cmake where your GRASS libs are, as explained here [via]. Note, the two dots at the end are required. Play with
lsto find the libs:# cmake -DGRASS_PREFIX=/usr/local/grass-6.4.3RC2 -DGRASS_INCLUDE_DIR=/usr/local/grass-6.4.3RC2/include ..If no errors occur, compile and install QuantumGIS:
# make && make installOne last minor fix, due to this bug:
# cd /etc/ld.so.conf.d/# echo '/usr/local/lib/qgis/' > qgis.conf# ldconfig
That's it! :)

Both have been replaced by DB Manager which covers the functionality of the old plugins.
