[lxml-dev] problems trying to install lxml 2.2 on Mac OS X
Hi All, I'm getting the following error when trying to install: Building lxml version 2.2. NOTE: Trying to build without Cython, pre-generated 'src/lxml/lxml.etree.c' needs to be available. Using build configuration of libxslt 1.1.11 Building against libxml2/libxslt in the following directory: /usr/lib src/lxml/lxml.etree.c:169:31:src/lxml/lxml.etree.c:169:31: error: libxml/schematron.h: No such file or directory error: libxml/schematron.h: No such file or directory <snip> src/lxml/lxml.etree.c:135067: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type src/lxml/lxml.etree.c:135068: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type src/lxml/lxml.etree.c: At top level: src/lxml/lxml.etree.c:135174: error: invalid application of 'sizeof' to incomplete type 'struct __pyx_obj_4lxml_5etree__ParserSchemaValidationContext' lipo: can't figure out the architecture type of: /var/tmp//ccxExHVU.out error: Setup script exited with error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1 What am I doing wrong? cheers, Chris

What am I doing wrong?
You are using the libxslt supplied by Apple. You need a newer one. I got libxml and libxslt from macports <http://www.macports.org/>. Fink would probably provide another war or look in the last month or two on this list I think someone produced a binary build of lxml for OSX -- Mark

If whoever did that could do a bdist_egg for python 2.6 and give it to Stefan to put on PyPI, that would be perfect... Any chance of that happening? Chris -- Simplistix - Content Management, Batch Processing & Python Consulting - http://www.simplistix.co.uk

So, you're not using MacOS-X 10.5, I assume? Stefan

10.4.11, but what does that have to do with not wanting to fight this fight myself? If someone else can get the compile working, if they can provide a binary egg, surely that will alleviate the need for other Mac users to go through the pain each time? cheers, Chris -- Simplistix - Content Management, Batch Processing & Python Consulting - http://www.simplistix.co.uk

The difference is that we have binaries for 10.5: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/lxml/2.2.2 Stefan

Oh, I see... So no, still on 10.4... Chris -- Simplistix - Content Management, Batch Processing & Python Consulting - http://www.simplistix.co.uk

Did you try the 10.5 egg? It doesn't have that many dependencies, so it might even work... If they don't: Stefan (E.), any chance to get binaries that run on 10.4? Stefan

Because I use automated tools (buildout in this case) I can't manually substitute in a "wrong" egg like this...

That would be great :-) Chris -- Simplistix - Content Management, Batch Processing & Python Consulting - http://www.simplistix.co.uk

To be honest, I have no idea. But that's definitely a distutils/setuptools/easyinstall thing, not an lxml problem. Stefan

Well, I think it's more OSX related. I've build my own egg on my system and it work fine: (tttt)gawel:~/tmp/tttt% easy_install http://release.ingeniweb.com/third-party-dist/lxml-2.2.2-py2.4-macosx-10.3-f...

I don't know the difference. Maybe the XCode version installed on the system... I can build an egg for py 2.4 2.5 2.6 if you want to add this on pypi even if it seems that I'm the only one that have this problem. -- Gael

The libxml2 installation is (or at least the header files are) too old. http://codespeak.net/lxml/build.html#building-lxml-on-macos-x Stefan
