VerificationError after build
My Linux machine at work is OpenSUSE 12.2, so I couldn't use a pre-built binary. I built PyPy 2.0.2 yesterday, then tried the interpreter. I got a couple VerificationError exceptions and never got a prompt. Looking more closely, I realized I was missing some prerequisites I thought I had. I installed everything I could find from the list and fired up the build process again before heading home. It was done when I got in this morning. I tried again. Same result. Since it was a compilation error, I thought I should mention what I have available: hornet% type cc cc is /usr/bin/cc hornet% type gcc gcc is /opt/TWWfsw/bin/gcc hornet% cc --version cc (SUSE Linux) 4.7.1 20120723 [gcc-4_7-branch revision 189773] Copyright (C) 2012 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

For compatibility with our other bits of software, and with the PyPy build itself, I would prefer to guarantee it uses gcc. The error message wasn't clear about what "cc" failed. I skimmed the --help output of rpython, then built it again with --cc=/.../.../gcc. Third try is a charm? Not so much. Can someone give me some suggestions about debugging these tracebacks? hornet% ./pypy-c Python 2.7.3 (5acfe049a5b0cd0de158f62553a98f5ef364fd29, Jun 28 2013, 15:39:43) [PyPy 2.0.2] on linux3 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. /net/udesktop267.wacker/export/home/skipm/3rdParty/pypy-2.0.2-src/lib_pypy/__pycache__/_cffi__g85535e98x310af836.c:27:19: fatal error: panel.h: No such file or directory compilation terminated.

Skip, SuSE has a somewhat different packaging of curses than do other installation. It'd be ideal if pypy-c would be immune to that, but so lacking I did: 1) symlink tinfo to ncurses: /usr/lib64/libtinfo.so.5 -> libncurses.so 2) symlink panel.h to ncurses/panel.h /usr/include/panel.h -> ncurses/panel.h Live's been good ever since. :) Best regards, Wim -- WLavrijsen@lbl.gov -- +1 (510) 486 6411 -- www.lavrijsen.net

Thanks. That seems to have worked. I now have a prompt and many pystones: % ./pypy-c Python 2.7.3 (5acfe049a5b0cd0de158f62553a98f5ef364fd29, Jun 28 2013, 15:39:43) [PyPy 2.0.2] on linux3 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. And now for something completely different: ``PyPy and CPython: they are mortal enemies intent on killing each other''

I tried yesterday to have it refuse to translate when some dependencies are missing (or just not found, like in this case curses). I also fixed yesterday a bug that prevents the prompt from showing up if curses is missing --- it would just try to fall back to the cffi version of curses, which would fail "spectacularly" like in your example. It seems you've been bitten by the same issues reported yesterday :-) A bientôt, Armin.
