New question #288727 on Graphite:

This is not a question - it is a howto guide for building Graphite without
automated package tools.
How to build Graphite and its dependencies from source without pip, yum, CPAN
and other automation tools.
I work in a development environment that is very limited in connectivity and
requires that linux software packages be as contained as possible off of /opt.
I can't just upgrade existing or install new perl and python modules into the
system perl and python directories because that may cause other software on the
server to break. Also, we have very locked down proxied internet access that
requires authentication and pretty much works for desktop web browsers only.
Because of these restrictions, using automated package management tools like
pip, yum, and "perl -MCPAN -e shell" to obtain and install packages just plain
doesn't work on my linux servers. I wanted to try out Graphite, so I spent many
hours figuring out what versions of each source package I needed and how to
configure/make/install each one in the right order. The instructions below will
put everything in /opt/graphite.
My base system is RHEL6 but these instructions should work reasonably well on
most up to date linux systems.
As root, create /opt/graphite and give the ownership of the dir to the userid
that will own/maintain/run graphite. In this example, my graphite userid is
called nmsuser.
cd /opt
mkdir graphite
chown nmsuser.users graphite
Exit your root shell and switch over to the nmsuser id and create a tgz dir for
all of your source packages.
su - nmsuser
mkdir /opt/graphite/tgz
Create a file named 00-build-vars.sh in /opt/graphite/tgz with the following
lines in it:
#
#
#### 00-build-vars.sh – helpful env vars for building graphite and its
dependencies
PYTHONPATH=/opt/graphite/bin:/opt/graphite/:/opt/graphite/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/:/opt/graphite/lib/python2.6/site-packages/
export PYTHONPATH
BUILD_DIR=/opt/graphite/tgz
export BUILD_DIR
INSTALL_DIR=/opt/graphite
export INSTALL_DIR
PATH=/opt/graphite/bin:$PATH
export PATH=$INSTALL_DIR/bin:$PATH
export LDFLAGS="-L${INSTALL_DIR}/lib"
export CPPFLAGS="-I/opt/graphite/include -I/opt/graphite/include/python2.6"
export MAKE=make
export PKG_CONFIG=$INSTALL_DIR/bin/pkg-config
#### end of 00-build-vars.sh
Save that file, and source it by typing…
. /opt/graphite/tgz/00-build-vars.sh
…on a line by itself. There will be no output from this command.
Now you are ready to download and build all the source packages. The list of
source packages below is what worked for me and I strongly suggest you stick to
these versions of these packages. I spent a considerable amount of time fooling
around with other (usually more recent) versions of some of these packages and
beat my head against problems that turned out to be version specific issues
that lead to dependency breakage.
It is also very important to build these packages in the order listed below
because many of the later source packages require libraries, header files, etc.
from the earlier packages.
So download each tar.gz or zip file below and execute
configure/make/build/install. For things like pkg-config, perl, python, and
net-snmp, pay special attention to the configure directives. It took me quite
some time and a lot of forum reading to get all of these right.

You will now be asked for some info by the net-snmp configure script. Just take
the defaults. We aren't going to actually run the system's SNMP daemon from
/opt/graphite/bin, we just need net-snmp libraries to build the perl SNMP
modules.

python check-dependencies.py
At this stage you should pass all of the dependency checks except LDAP. If you
want LDAP authentication support you will have to deal with python-ldap and its
dependencies. LDAP has a fairly lengthy chain of dependencies like OpenLDAP and
GNUTLS which each have even more dependencies. For now I don't want to deal
with all that so I'm skipping LDAP support.
If you are happy with the dependency check results, make sure you are still in
the graphite-web-0.9.15 dir and execute…
python setup.py install --prefix=/opt/graphite/
cd ..
tar –zxvf whisper-0.9.15.tar.gz
cd whisper-0.9.15
python setup.py install --prefix=/opt/graphite/
cd ..
Now, go here…
http://graphite.readthedocs.org/en/latest/install.html#initial-configuration
…to configure the components, start up the system, view log files, etc.
Happy Graphit'ing and I hope this info is helpful and time saving to someone.
