Hi all, I'm trying to install python-dbus on Heroku. The problem is python-dbus has several dependencies, namely dbus-lib and dbus-glib.
I've tried a few different options, none of which succeeded. I'd like some feedback on what I've done, and insight into whether it is even *possible*. And if you could help walk me through one of these options, I would be even more grateful. 1) Using Vulcan/Anvil. So far, I can compile dbus-lib without any problems. Dbus-glib won't compile, though, because it requires dbus-lib. I know Anvil has a "piping" feature. Is that a way to get this done? Any examples? 2) Using a custom buildpack. I made some headway with this method, but wrangling with the install prefixes and shellcode is a little painful. I am wondering if there is a better way. And again, an example would be *extremely* helpful. 3) Using fakeroot: https://github.com/fabiokung/heroku-buildpack-fakesu . Do I need to use this? It looks like it *could* make my life easier because I could just run apt-get install on the dependencies. I got it correctly running (I forked it and updated some binary URLs, because they've become outdated), but the things I installed within fakeroot can't be seen outside it, when I try to configure/make python-dbus.
