Hello, I have used cygwin for awhile now and love i, having an issue that is very confusing to me.
So I am trying to install django-socketio via pip install django-socketio and after it succesffully I always get the error (I install things through pip all the time so I know pip is stable): //-------------------------------------------------- running build_ext building 'gevent.core' extension gcc -fno-strict-aliasing -DNDEBUG -g -fwrapv -O3 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -I/usr/include/python2.6 -c gevent/core.c -o build/temp.cygwin-1.7.9-i686-2.6/gevent/core.o gcc -shared -Wl,--enable-auto-image-base build/temp.cygwin-1.7.9-i686-2.6/gevent/core.o -L/home/tblank/.virtualenvs/raspberry_pi/lib/python2.6/config -levent -lpython2.6 -o build/lib.cygwin-1.7.9-i686-2.6/gevent/core.dll /usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-cygwin/4.5.3/../../../../i686-pc-cygwin/bin/ld: cannot find -levent collect2: ld returned 1 exit status error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1 //------------------------------------------------- full error can be found here: http://dpaste.com/1053771/ I have installed libevent-2.0.21-stable from http://libevent.org/ ... and ran a ./configure, make and make install without any errors and I can see libevent.a in \usr\local\lib. I assume gcc can't find my library files for libevent but I have failed to find anything online that tells me how to tell gcc where those files are or if in fact that is the issue. Any information would be greatly appreciate. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
