Hello, List newbie here, sorry if this is a FAQ (I don't see it in the cached copy of the FAQ, and the wiki seems to be down).
I'm trying to get Inline::Python (allows python to be called from perl with very little glue) working on OSX 10.3. I have installed the framework build of 2.4.1 and am able to use it, run scripts, etc. Inline (the base for Inline::Python, Inline::C, etc.) seemd to install fine. When I installed Inline::Python, however, it asked me: > $ perl Makefile.PL > Found these python executables on your PATH: > 1. /usr/local/bin/python > 2. /usr/bin/python > Use which? [1] > Using /usr/local/bin/python > > This python's configuration files are messed up. You'll have have to > answer the questions yourself. Here is what Python said: > > Extra Libs: None > Python Library: None/config/None > Include Path: None > > 1. LIBS option. I need to know what extra libraries, if any, > are required by this build of python. I recommend this: > None > > Enter extra libraries (e.g. -lfoo -lbar) [None] > > 2. LIBRARY option. The location of the python library. > Inline::Python needs to link against it to use Python. > > Here are the libraries I know about: > > Which? Or enter another. [1] > /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.4/Python > > 3. INCLUDE option. The location of the python include files. > Inline::Python needs these to compile. > > Here are the locations I know about: > > Which? Or enter another. [1] > /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.4/include/python2.4/ Now, all of my entries above (everything after [1]) are just guesses that don't seem to work (I've tried fiddling with the things I gave it, and the include dir seems to be correct). When I run something that uses Inline, I get the following: > $ perl test.pl > Can't make loaded symbols global on this platform while loading > /Library/Perl//darwin/auto/Inline/Python/Python.bundle at > /Library/Perl//darwin/DynaLoader.pm line 229. > dyld: /usr/local/bin/perl Undefined symbols: > _PyCallable_Check > _PyClass_Type ...much removed... > __Py_NoneStruct > __Py_TrueStruct > Failed to autogenerate /Users/elis/code/play/perl/_Inline/config. > > at test.pl line 13 > BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at test.pl line 13. In my searching the closest answer I have found is "use -framwork instead", but I'm not really in control of the code (and I'd rather not start munging around inside Inline internals if I don't have to). What should I do? Is there a libpython laying around somewhere that I am unable to locate? Is there an easy way to build it? Thanks for any help, Eli _______________________________________________ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig
