Hello,
I'm new to BinDeps. I use it in https://github.com/femtotrader/TALib.jl to be able to download / build / install TA-Lib http://ta-lib.org/ I'm able to install this library using OS X and Homebrew without problem see https://travis-ci.org/femtotrader/TALib.jl/jobs/166091755 but with Linux, I'm facing a strange issue. see https://travis-ci.org/femtotrader/TALib.jl/jobs/166091757 It raises LoadError: Path /home/travis/.julia/v0.5/TALib/deps/src/ta-lib-0.4.0-src was not created successfully (Tried to run `tar xzf /home/travis/.julia/v0.5/TALib/deps/downloads/ta-lib-0.4.0-src.tar.gz --directory=/home/travis/.julia/v0.5/TALib/deps/src` ) while loading /home/travis/.julia/v0.5/TALib/deps/build.jl, in expression starting on line 31 My deps/build.jl looks like using BinDeps @BinDeps.setup libta_lib = library_dependency("libta_lib", aliases=["libta_lib", "libta_lib.so"]) if is_apple() if Pkg.installed("Homebrew") === nothing error("Homebrew package not installed, please run Pkg.add(\"Homebrew\")") end using Homebrew provides(Homebrew.HB, "ta-lib", libta_lib, os = :Darwin ) elseif is_linux() provides(Sources, Dict( URI("http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/ta-lib/ta-lib-0.4.0-src.tar.gz";) => libta_lib ) ) provides(BuildProcess, Autotools(libtarget = "libta_lib", configure_options=["--prefix=/usr"]), libta_lib, os = :Unix) else error("TALib.jl doesn't support this OS") end @BinDeps.install Dict(:libta_lib => :libta_lib) I don't understand why it's failing. Before following the "BinDeps way" I was installing this dependency using wget http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/ta-lib/ta-lib-0.4.0-src.tar.gz tar -zxvf ta-lib-0.4.0-src.tar.gz cd ta-lib ./configure --prefix=/usr make sudo make install Any help will be very nice. PS: Issue opened on my side https://github.com/femtotrader/TALib.jl/issues/16
