[Cooker] [Bug 4879] [pysol] pysol won't start: "could not find the file 'pysol_23.pyc'"
http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/show_bug.cgi?id=4879 --- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-26-08 05:16 --- Thanks for the fix. =) About the GPL issue I mentioned: It doesn't matter whether the sources the author provides have a Makefile to create the pysol_23.pyc -- the GPL still requires the distribution of the source files when distribute binaries, even if they are available from some third party. Anyway, I'm not the copyright holder, and if the author of pysol (or it's GPL'd libraries that it uses) doesn't say anything, then nobody is going to bother you about the violation. But as a Linux distributor, doesn't it seem like the right thing to do to follow the GPL, whether or not an author complains? It really doesn't look good when Linux distributions violate the GPL. =( BTW, the README from the source package says that the pysol_23.pyc is basically just a compiled concatination of the files--it doesn't give instructions how to do this, but it seems straightforward. If you don't want to build the .pyc from the sources, you ought to just include them in the /usr/share/doc tree instead. -- Configure bugmail: http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. --- Reminder: --- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: RESOLVED creation_date: description: When trying to start pysol, it fails with the following message: $ pysol /usr/games/pysol: could not find the file 'pysol_23.pyc' !

You might want to contact the author to fix this or take a look at it yourself. to 3#: you obviously don't use Cooker with python 2.3. -- Configure bugmail: http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. --- Reminder: --- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: NEW creation_date: description: When trying to start pysol, it fails with the following message: $ pysol /usr/games/pysol: could not find the file 'pysol_23.pyc' !

The problem is that I can't quit pysol ! The icon "exit" clean the window fom cards and freeze it.

http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/show_bug.cgi?id=4879 --- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-25-08 03:36 --- Hmmm... interestingly enough, the pysol SRPM doesn't contain the pysol source code, it only contains the byte-compiled version. This means not only that it can't be rebuilt to work with Python 2.3, but unless Mandrake distributes the real pysol source code somewhere, this is actually a GPL violation. Might wanna fix that. =) -- Configure bugmail: http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. --- Reminder: --- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: UNCONFIRMED creation_date: description: When trying to start pysol, it fails with the following message: $ pysol /usr/games/pysol: could not find the file 'pysol_23.pyc' !
