What they are doing is setting options (compiler flags, paths, dispatcher scripts etc.) into an object called "environment" in libtbx.env_config. But they need to "pickle" that object to use that options. They save it into BUILDDIR/libtbx_env. They find it with LIBTBX env variable. If you check patch 0001 you'll see that I already changed the unpickle method to look into a systems path. Now the tricky thing is that cctbx needs this object at runtime. I haven't entirely investigated why and where but you can't import any of the modules without this object.
So I wrote a method in sconsutils.py to alternate the object to change the path's to our final paths. Then the object is going to be installed into /usr/share/cctbx/python*.*/libtbx_env This way we can also reuse their build system if we need to install any other packages that depend on their build system. libtbx is just a wrapper for scons. But I could also investigate more why this is needed at runtime and try to patch it out. regards Radi -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
