I thought that just replacing which python is > used could be enough, but I guess I was too optimistic. For other backends like Maxima for example we communicate with the executable via stdin/stdout. For this the user have to or can specify the path for the executable. For scripting languages like python and julia we embedd the interpreter into our process at runtime. Which interpreter to use is determined during the compilation and linking to the python libraries. > This is a workaround I could use as I'm actually compiling Cantor myself > because of bug https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=406712 I'll check this bug report. > Could you please let me know how to build linking to Conda instead?

I'm not familiar with Conda but this "environment" also has to store the files somewhere. I think what you're looking for can achieved if you manage cmake to find the python installation from this environment. Please have a look at cmake/FindPythonLibs3.cmake. The variables PYTHONLIBS3_LIBRARIES and PYTHONLIBS3_INCLUDE_DIRS are used at compile and linking time and determine the python environment to use. This cmake script is looking for Python.h and for python3.2m. You can provide hints here by setting the environment variables PYTHONLIBS3_INCLUDEDIR and PYTHONLIBS3_LIBDIR in your shell. Just point these variables to your conda installation and it should work. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
