Now that the buildbot is up, it is recommended that you try to investigate the failures (and the test_ttk_guionly crash), and that you create bugs reports on http://bugs.python.org for them.

[Pythonmac-SIG] Problem bundling matplotlib with py2app: it looks for a font in /Library/Frameworks
I have a Mac python application I bundle with py2app. It has successfully included matplotlib for several years. However recently I added strip charts to it and now I find that the Mac bundle is broken: when I run on a system that does not have matplotlib installed it dies with a traceback that ends with: Traceback (most recent call last): File ".../python2.6/RO/Wdg/Toplevel.py", line 138, in __init__ File ".../python2.6/TUI/Guide/GuideMonitor/GuideMonitorWindow.py", line 56, in __init__ File ".../python2.6/RO/Wdg/StripChartWdg.py", line 161, in __init__ File ".../python2.6/RO/Wdg/StripChartWdg.py", line 314, in _updateTimeAxis File ".../python2.6/matplotlib/backends/backend_tkagg.py", line 251, in draw File ".../python2.6/matplotlib/backends/backend_agg.py", line 394, in draw File ".../python2.6/matplotlib/artist.py", line 55, in draw_wrapper File ".../python2.6/matplotlib/figure.py", line 798, in draw File ".../python2.6/matplotlib/artist.py", line 55, in draw_wrapper File ".../python2.6/matplotlib/axes.py", line 1934, in draw File ".../python2.6/matplotlib/artist.py", line 55, in draw_wrapper File ".../python2.6/matplotlib/axis.py", line 1017, in draw File ".../python2.6/matplotlib/artist.py", line 55, in draw_wrapper File ".../python2.6/matplotlib/axis.py", line 234, in draw File ".../python2.6/matplotlib/artist.py", line 55, in draw_wrapper File ".../python2.6/matplotlib/text.py", line 524, in draw File ".../python2.6/matplotlib/text.py", line 298, in _get_layout File ".../python2.6/matplotlib/backends/backend_agg.py", line 180, in get_text_width_height_descent File ".../python2.6/matplotlib/backends/backend_agg.py", line 221, in _get_agg_font RuntimeError: Could not open facefile /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/python2.6/site-pack ages/matplotlib/mpl-data/fonts/ttf/Vera.ttf; Cannot_Open_Resource where ... = /Users/rowen/TUI_1.8.2.1_Source/BuildForMac/dist/TUI.app/Contents/Resourc es/lib That font is available in the bundle itself: ls -l TUI.app/Contents/Resources/lib/python2.6/matplotlib/mpl-data/fonts/ttf total 4304 ... -rw-rw-r-- 1 rowen _rowen 65932 Jul 6 07:43 Vera.ttf -rw-rw-r-- 1 rowen _rowen 63208 Jul 6 07:43 VeraBI.ttf -rw-rw-r-- 1 rowen _rowen 58716 Jul 6 07:43 VeraBd.ttf -rw-rw-r-- 1 rowen _rowen 63684 Jul 6 07:43 VeraIt.ttf -rw-rw-r-- 1 rowen _rowen 55032 Jul 6 07:43 VeraMoBI.ttf -rw-rw-r-- 1 rowen _rowen 49052 Jul 6 07:43 VeraMoBd.ttf -rw-rw-r-- 1 rowen _rowen 54508 Jul 6 07:43 VeraMoIt.ttf -rw-rw-r-- 1 rowen _rowen 49224 Jul 6 07:43 VeraMono.ttf -rw-rw-r-- 1 rowen _rowen 60280 Jul 6 07:43 VeraSe.ttf -rw-rw-r-- 1 rowen _rowen 58736 Jul 6 07:43 VeraSeBd.ttf ...

But alas it does not. I assume this is an "applet" that processes files you drop on it (since anything else typically needs a GUI to be useful as a double-clickable application instead of a command-line tool). So far the best I have come up with is RO.Wdg.DropletRunner, which is part of my RO package available at PyPI. Features: - It color codes the messages by source (stdout=black, stderr=red) - Once the script has processed your initial batch of files you can drag new files onto it to process those However, it has a few rough edges: - It requires a trivial script to run your script - It wants a simple property list in your setup.py to specify what kind of files can be dropped on the applet - It buffers the output more than I would like Regards, -- Russell ___ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/Pythonmac-SIG

I found the problem, though not a robust solution. The problem is that matplotlib is using the font cache in ~/.matplotlib. Sometimes this gets out of date and then font files cannot be found. Unfortunately matplotlib does not realize the data is bogus and so crashes instead of rebuilding the cache files. I have gotten two user reports of this problem. It also invalidates what I thought was a pretty solid test of whether my application is properly self-contained: move the Python, Tcl and Tk frameworks out of the way and then run my bundle. I have to also delete the matplotlib caches and then remember to delete them again after the test. It would be really, really nice to have a standard way of forcing matplotlib to ignore cache files (neither read nor write them). An adequate but less thorough solution is for matplotlib to test the font cache when it first loads it (e.g. by trying to find a font) and rebuild it if it doesn't work. -- Russell ___ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/Pythonmac-SIG
