Hi, As we are using different versions of python in our Studio, we would like sip to be installed into ONE common location.
Here's a list of our pythons: python2.5.1 - compiled from repository and installed into a shared network location maya2009-python2.5.1 - The program we use for 3D (Autodesk Maya 2009)This is the python2.5.1 that comes with maya and resides under the maya location. It's a built in interpreter. nuke5.2-python2.5.1 - This is the python2.5.1 for nuke (The Foundry, Nuke). Also a built in interpreter. So, my initial thought was to compile and install sip (4.10.1) into one common site wide location (so there will be less maintenance), say: /net/share/python/site-packages, and have PYTHONPATH=/net/share/python/site-packages. However, sip will only work for the python interpreter that was used to compile sip. In this case, let's assume I'm using the self compiled python2.5.1 from the repository. When I try to import sip from inside maya or nuke, I get a "Undefined symbol: PyUnicodeUCS2_DecodeLatin1. I figure this is becasue it can't locate the libpython.so in the self-compiled python2.5.1. Setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH doesn't do the trick either - besides, I really don`t want to have LD_LIBRARY_PATH configured. I did install sip for each of the pythons, and it worked. This is what I would like to avoid as it presents an extra step of maintenance when dealing with upgrades. So, question: Is there a way to have the sip module shared between multiple instances of python interpreters - and if so - what's the best way to do this? FYI, PyQt works fine from a single site wide location.
