Well spotted! pyxrc is now installed into share/examples/pyx as it's not actually needed for pyx to run correctly (it just contains a list of the run-time defaults).

Good point. I've now updated the port to install the example files.

The port passes regress on i386 here. The do-regress target looks
odd to me, but I see the other examples in the tree and understand
what it does.
I think it would be nice to add some (all?) of the files under
examples/, especially since the docs reference them.

Re: NEW: graphics/py-pyx
Hi, The attached tarball works fine on both amd64 and macppc here. The problem was an interrupted read, and a thread starting too early. I have added a regress target that runs all the examples, except one (months.py) which is not even complete. Please test, comments and ok. Eric. py-pyx.tgz Description: Unix tar archive

I am testing it on macppc. I often get the following error with
the provided examples:
$ python2.5 changesymbol.py
Exception in thread Thread-1:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.5/threading.py", line 460, in __bootstrap
self.run()
File
"/usr/ports/graphics/py-pyx/w-py-pyx-0.10/fake-macppc/usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/pyx/text.py",
line 639, in run
read = self.pipe.readline() # read again
IOError: [Errno 4] Interrupted system call
/usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/pyx/text.py:850: UserWarning: still
waiting for tex after 5 (of 60) seconds...
warnings.warn("still waiting for %s after %i (of %i) seconds..." %
(self.mode, waited, self.waitfortex))
...
It seems to finally work after several attempts (running the program 3 or 4
times). It is really annoying. I am almost sure it is due to some thread
misuse. There is probably a race condition in the texrunner setup: delaying
the threaded pipe reader loop by one second (arbitrarily) seems to make
everything work fine. I have not investigated further.
I think this should be fixed before the port makes it to the tree.
Laurence, would you have a look a it? Otherwise I will do it but not
before this WE at least.
Eric.
