Thanks Karthikeyan. The behavior is specific to anaconda when I use the python/pip that comes with it. When I use the pip from anaconda, e.g:/Users/skauser/anaconda3/bin/pip pip install ibm_db Installation is success,but when I import ibm_db, I get this error import ibm_db >>> import ibm_db Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> ImportError: dlopen(/Users/skauser/anaconda3/lib/python3.7/site-packages/ibm_db.cpython-37m-darwin.so, 2): Library not loaded: libdb2.dylib Referenced from: /Users/skauser/anaconda3/lib/python3.7/site-packages/ibm_db.cpython-37m-darwin.so Reason: image not found Reason being, the post install script of my setup.py is not executed and hence following command did not run post install . for so in glob.glob(get_python_lib()+r'/ibm_db*.so'): os.system("install_name_tool -change libdb2.dylib {}/lib/libdb2.dylib {}".format(clipath, so)) Can be seen at https://github.com/ibmdb/python-ibmdb/blob/master/IBM_DB/ibm_db/setup.py#L58 However, when I use the standalone python installation that is outside of anaconda distribution, pip install correctly runs the post install script ibm_db's setup.py. /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.7/bin/python3 Python 3.7.1 (v3.7.1:260ec2c36a, Oct 20 2018, 03:13:28) [Clang 6.0 (clang-600.0.57)] on darwin Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import ibm_db >> The error Reason: image not found is specific to MAC due to its security setting and I have added a workaround that is expected to work with pip install. However, it does not seem to work. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue36640> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
