Please excuse the cross-post. I have installed distribute-0.6.8 and numpy-svn into my ~/.local/lib/python2.6/site-packages (using "python setup.py install --user"). I am now trying to install Enthought's Enable from a fresh svn checkout on ubuntu karmic:
$ python setup.py develop --user [...] building library "agg24_src" sources building library "kiva_src" sources building extension "enthought.kiva.agg._agg" sources building extension "enthought.kiva.agg._plat_support" sources building data_files sources build_src: building npy-pkg config files running build_clib customize UnixCCompiler customize UnixCCompiler using build_clib running build_ext build_clib already run, it is too late to ensure in-place build of build_clib Traceback (most recent call last): File "setup.py", line 327, in <module> **config File "/home/darren/.local/lib/python2.6/site-packages/numpy/distutils/core.py", line 186, in setup return old_setup(**new_attr) File "/usr/lib/python2.6/distutils/core.py", line 152, in setup dist.run_commands() File "/usr/lib/python2.6/distutils/dist.py", line 975, in run_commands self.run_command(cmd) File "/usr/lib/python2.6/distutils/dist.py", line 995, in run_command cmd_obj.run() File "/home/darren/.local/lib/python2.6/site-packages/numpy/distutils/command/build_ext.py", line 74, in run self.library_dirs.append(build_clib.build_clib) UnboundLocalError: local variable 'build_clib' referenced before assignment I am able to run "python setup.py install --user". Incidentally, "python setup.py develop --user" worked for TraitsGui, EnthoughtBase, TraitsBackendQt4. I have been (sort of) following the discussion on distutils-sig. Thank you Robert, David, Pauli, for all your effort. _______________________________________________ NumPy-Discussion mailing list NumPy-Discussion@scipy.org http://mail.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
