build_ext scipy.xplt.gistC misses X11 include dir

Hi, building scipy from cvs 03/21/2003 under MacOS X 10.2.4 fails in xplt because /usr/X11R6/include is lost from the include path: *********************************************** /Volumes/scratch/derek/BUILD/scipy/Lib/xplt scipy *********************************************** x11_info: FOUND: libraries = ['X11'] library_dirs = ['/usr/X11R6/lib'] include_dirs = ['/usr/X11R6/include'] SciPy Version 0.2.0_alpha_183.4048 running build running build_py ... running build_ext building 'scipy.xplt.gistC' extension gcc -Wno-long-double -no-cpp-precomp -DNDEBUG -g -O3 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -I/Volumes/scratch/derek/BUILD/scipy/Lib/xplt/src/gist -I/Volumes/scratch/derek/BUILD/scipy/Lib/xplt/src/play -I/Volumes/scratch/derek/BUILD/scipy/Lib/xplt/src/play/unix -I/sw/include/python2.3 -c /Volumes/scratch/derek/BUILD/scipy/Lib/xplt/src/play/x11/images.c -o /Volumes/scratch/derek/BUILD/scipy/Lib/xplt/src/play/x11/images.o -DGISTPATH="/sw/lib/python2.3/site-packages/scipy/xplt/gistdata" In file included from /Volumes/scratch/derek/BUILD/scipy/Lib/xplt/src/play/x11/images.c:9: /Volumes/scratch/derek/BUILD/scipy/Lib/xplt/src/play/x11/playx.h:11:22: X11/Xlib.h: No such file or directory In file included from /Volumes/scratch/derek/BUILD/scipy/Lib/xplt/src/play/x11/images.c:9: /Volumes/scratch/derek/BUILD/scipy/Lib/xplt/src/play/x11/playx.h:29: parse error before "Display" [...horrible death] > cat Lib/xplt/pygist/Make.cfg # Make.cfg from setup.py script Fri Mar 21 21:26:21 2003 # Darwin bart.physast.uga.edu 6.4 Darwin Kernel Version 6.4: Wed Jan 29 18:50:42 PST 2003; root:xnu/xnu-344.26.obj~1/RELEASE_PPC Power Macintosh MATHLIB=-lm NO_EXP10=-DNO_EXP10 FPELIB= FPELIBM= XINC=-I/usr/X11R6/include XLIB=-L/usr/X11R6/lib > ls -l /usr/X11R6/include/X11/Xlib.h -r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 112790 Dec 10 23:30 /usr/X11R6/include/X11/Xlib.h Any ideas?

I'd like to > update the PIL backend to use it when it becomes "not too hard". =) I don't think it is that hard at this point -- it builds on the windows, linux, and MacOS machines here without issue. The downside is that it still has some rendering flaws and it is slower than necessary. I plan on fixing these things the week after PyCon, so waiting till then is propbably worth while. eric

setup.py vs. setup_foo.py
by David Ascher March 23, 2003

March 23, 2003

I think I've missed a conversation re: the CVS reorg. I find it weird that there are setup_foo.py files in what (IMO) should be standalone modules/packages such as kiva, traits, chaco, freetype. Furthermore, some modules have both (e.g. freetype, last time I checked). Finally, is the scipy_distutils stuff which all of them require available in a separate module/package, and if not, anyone have any objection to making that separation. I'm packaging something based on chaco, which has more or less natural dependencies on traits, kiva and chaco (and freetype, although I'm not 100% sure I understand the latter yet). It's frustrating to have to tell people to install "scipy" just to get traits/freetype/kiva/chaco to build. Cheers, --david [see y'all at pycon?]

cluster?
by Kasper Souren March 18, 2003

March 18, 2003

Hi, It seems like cluster is missing again. Last time it was missing it was still installed as a seperate module, but that doesn't appear to be the case. Is this the case for every current cvs installation or is it particular to my system? bye, Kasper

scipy after CVS changes ...
by baecker＠physik.tu-dresden.de March 15, 2003

March 15, 2003

Hi, a have few remarks/questions after the recent changes in CVS. First the installation went fine (debian testing, installation with Numeric23.0). 1.) trying chaco as well: I tried to uncomment the line (in setup.py) to install chaco #scipy_packages += chaco_packages and got as error: Traceback (most recent call last): File "setup.py", line 107, in ? setup_package() File "setup.py", line 82, in setup_package config_list += map(get_package_config,scipy_packages) File "setup.py", line 63, in get_package_config mod = __import__('setup_'+os.path.basename(name)) ImportError: No module named setup_freetype 2.) Question: is there a log-file of the installation process ? (this might help to trace errors etc.) 3.) Finally, I have a few cosmetic remarks on INSTALL.txt: - under INSTALLATION it says: "run python setup_scipy_core.py install" setup_scipy_core.py is now in scipy_core under the name setup.py Moreover, I think this step is not necessary anymore, i.e. a straight `python setup.py install` will do the job, or ? (so the next line `python setup_scipy.py install` should be changed accordingly). I think the topic TESTING should be moved straight after the `python setup.py install` instructions (maybe with an "(Highly recommended)" added ?) The section TROUBLESHOOTING has to be updated according to the new setup: 6) cd scipy/linalg --> cd scipy/Lib/linalg (actually, for my machine I get python -c 'import atlas_version' Traceback (most recent call last): File "<string>", line 1, in ? ImportError: ./atlas_version.so: undefined symbol: ATL_buildinfo However, I thought (up to now) that my (debian provided) atlas is fine ... ;-) 7) change to: python scipy_core/scipy_distutils/system_info.py python scipy_core/scipy_distutils/command/build_flib.py Arnd

xplt, drawing-time...
by Johannes Broedel March 14, 2003

March 14, 2003

Hi, I just tried xplt, it works fine on both, teh Linux and the Windows-Machine. I want to show dynamic processes, e.g. computing 1000 data points to be shown not all at the same time - they should appear one after the other. At the moment xplt seems to collect the points and to draw them finally. Does anyone know a solution for that? Thanks in advance, Johannes Broedel
