Hi, Just to let folks know the current SVN version fails to build on a mac. I built the release (0.98.5.3) successfully from source so I think my environment, dependencies etc. should be OK.
The problem seems to be building mac os x native backend: building 'matplotlib.backends._macosx' extension gcc -arch i386 -isysroot /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk -fno-strict-aliasing -Wno-long-double -no-cpp-precomp -mno-fused-madd -fno-common -dynamic -DNDEBUG -g -O3 -DPY_ARRAY_UNIQUE_SYMBOL=MPL_ARRAY_API -I/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5/site-packages/numpy/core/include -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/include -I/usr/X11R6/include -I. -I/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5/site-packages/numpy/core/include -Isrc -Iagg24/include -I. -I/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/include/python2.5 -c src/_macosx.m -o build/temp.macosx-10.3-i386-2.5/src/_macosx.o g++ -arch i386 -isysroot /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk -g -bundle -undefined dynamic_lookup build/temp.macosx-10.3-i386-2.5/src/_macosx.o build/temp.macosx-10.3-i386-2.5/CXX/cxx_extensions.o build/temp.macosx-10.3-i386-2.5/CXX/cxxextensions.o build/temp.macosx-10.3-i386-2.5/CXX/cxxsupport.o build/temp.macosx-10.3-i386-2.5/CXX/IndirectPythonInterface.o build/temp.macosx-10.3-i386-2.5/src/agg_py_transforms.o build/temp.macosx-10.3-i386-2.5/src/path_cleanup.o -L/usr/local/lib -L/usr/lib -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lstdc++ -lm -o build/lib.macosx-10.3-i386-2.5/matplotlib/backends/_macosx.so -framework Cocoa ld: cycle in dylib re-exports with /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk/usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.dylib collect2: ld returned 1 exit status error: command 'g++' failed with exit status 1 How can I disable building the mac os x backend. I copied setup.cfg.example to setup.cfg and have "macosx = False" but it doesn't seem to have any effect. "python setup.py config" still reports "Mac OS X native: yes". Thanks Robin PS - some minor comments about the sourceforge download page (I dont know if these can be changed): On the summary page ( http://sourceforge.net/projects/matplotlib/ ) the "download now" link which I would think should point to the latest release point to 0.91. Then when you do 'view all files' matplotlib-maintenance is the default expanded branch of the tree with latest version 0.91.4. To get the real new version you have to close this tree or scroll down to the normal matplotlib branch. If I didn't know the versions to look for beforehand I think this would be really confusing - can you make matplotlib the default instead of matplotlib-maintenance? Also I went to the Developer page to find the svn repo http://sourceforge.net/projects/matplotlib/develop and followed the instructions there which of course started to pull in the whole repo. When I found it taking a long time I noticed that I was getting branches etc I didnt need. I know this is covered with the correct command in the install page, but I thought it would be handy to change it here as well to avoid someone else making the mistake I made. These are very minor things and normally I wouldn't bother mentioning, but since the matplotlib website etc. seems so nice I figured there is someone who cares about this stuff - although I'm not sure whether its possible to change this stuff in sourceforge. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Enter the BlackBerry Developer Challenge This is your chance to win up to $100,000 in prizes!
