It's probably looking in the wrong place.
Yes, the include files are there. I'm only beginning to grasp a little about how builds work, and that sysroots/overo is the context in which the Gumstix cross tools run. But the appropriate directory, /home/pauld/yocto/build/tmp/sysroots/overo/usr/include/pygtk-2.0, is not on the compiler command line, and that causes the error. I've been trying to figure out how the setup.py/setup.cfg (and distutils) stuff works. The setup.cfg file lists only one possible option for adding directories, which is basedirlist, but setting that to foo adds foo/include to the include directories and foo/lib to the library directories, so that's not appropriate. I tried just setting include_dirs to the proper directory in the [directories] section, but it had no effect. The configure log shows nothing, but the compile log (which shows the compile error at the end), shows this DEBUG note right at the beginning: /home/pauld/yocto/build/tmp/work/armv7a-vfp-neon-poky-linux-gnueabi/python -matplotlib-1.1.0-r3/temp/run.do_compile.14201: line 82: /home/pauld/yocto/build/tmp/sysroots/i686-linux/usr/bin/python: No such file or directory basedirlist is: ['/home/pauld/yocto/build/tmp/sysroots/overo/usr/lib'] The message refers to this script in run.do_compile (slightly reformatted): do_compile() { BUILD_SYS=i686-linux HOST_SYS=arm-poky-linux-gnueabi \ /home/pauld/yocto/build/tmp/sysroots/i686-linux/usr/bin/python \ setup.py build || true distutils_do_compile } This would suggest that setup.py isn't even being run. Yet when I accidentally put a syntax error into setup.cfg, it barfed. Is setup.cfg read before setup.py is run, by something else? So there are two questions: why is there no python in that directory? (There is a python-native subdirectory containing python.) And once that's dealt with, how does one add a specific include subdirectory to the command line via setup.cfg? Or maybe those aren't the questions. I understand about 0.1% of what's going on here. I'm also curious if distutils is something that is used throughout the bitbake process, or is it something specific to building Python-related stuff? Can the setup.py/setup.cfg mechanism be used in any recipes? -- Ciao, Paul D.
