Hi, After searching the web without much success, maybe somebody in here can direct me into the right direction: I have a software that is providing swig bindings to (among other languages) python, and I'd like to have an ebuild for that and get binding for python2 and python3 at the same time. Building the thing works fine for python2 and python3 on the commandline, but I cannot get my ebuild to build for both python2 and python3 versions. It will build for whatever is set as default python interpreter, but will not find the libraries for the other one.
This is what the ebuild reports (with python3 being default): -- +++ DEBUG +++ PYTHON_EXECUTABLE: /usr/bin/python -- Found PythonInterp: /usr/bin/python (found version "3.6.9") -- Found PythonLibs: /usr/lib/libpython3.6m.so (found version "3.6.9") -- +++ DEBUG +++ PYTHON_EXECUTABLE: /usr/bin/python -- +++ DEBUG +++ PYTHON_LIBRARIES: /usr/lib/libpython3.6m.so -- +++ DEBUG +++ PYTHONLIBS_VERSION_STRING: 3.6.9 -- Found SWIG: /usr/bin/swig (found suitable version "3.0.12", minimum required is "2.0.4") -- +++ DEBUG +++ ARG_INTERP: python2 -- +++ DEBUG +++ PYTHON_EXECUTABLE: /usr/bin/python2 -- Found PythonInterp: /usr/bin/python2 (found suitable version "2.7.15", minimum required is "2") -- Could NOT find PythonLibs (missing: PYTHON_LIBRARIES PYTHON_INCLUDE_DIRS) (Required is at least version "2") -- +++ DEBUG +++ PYTHON_EXECUTABLE: /usr/bin/python2 -- +++ DEBUG +++ PYTHON_LIBRARIES: PYTHON_LIBRARY-NOTFOUND -- +++ DEBUG +++ PYTHONLIBS_VERSION_STRING: -- Checking for python 2.7.15 module: numpy ... yes -- +++ DEBUG +++ ARG_PYTHON_EXECUTABLE: /usr/bin/python2 This is what I get on the commandline when building: -- +++ DEBUG +++ PYTHON_EXECUTABLE: /usr/bin/python -- Found PythonInterp: /usr/bin/python (found version "3.6.9") -- Found PythonLibs: /usr/lib/libpython3.6m.so (found version "3.6.9") -- +++ DEBUG +++ PYTHON_EXECUTABLE: /usr/bin/python -- +++ DEBUG +++ PYTHON_LIBRARIES: /usr/lib/libpython3.6m.so -- +++ DEBUG +++ PYTHONLIBS_VERSION_STRING: 3.6.9 -- Found SWIG: /usr/bin/swig (found suitable version "3.0.12", minimum required is "2.0.4") -- +++ DEBUG +++ ARG_INTERP: /usr/bin/python2 -- +++ DEBUG +++ PYTHON_EXECUTABLE: /usr/bin/python2 -- Found PythonInterp: /usr/bin/python2 (found suitable version "2.7.15", minimum required is "2") -- Found PythonLibs: /usr/lib/libpython2.7.so (found suitable version "2.7.15", minimum required is "2") -- +++ DEBUG +++ PYTHON_EXECUTABLE: /usr/bin/python2 -- +++ DEBUG +++ PYTHON_LIBRARIES: /usr/lib/libpython2.7.so -- +++ DEBUG +++ PYTHONLIBS_VERSION_STRING: 2.7.15 -- Checking for python 2.7.15 module: numpy ... yes -- +++ DEBUG +++ ARG_PYTHON_EXECUTABLE: /usr/bin/python2 The ebuild itself is quite straight-forward (I think), just using cmake-utils to pass on USE flags to options (ENABLE_SWIG_PYTHON2 and ENABLE_SWIG_PYTHON3 in this case). This part works as far as I can see. Is there anything else to consider? Somehow the ebuild environment appears to be different from what I have on the commandline so that the second python version isn't properly found. cu Gerrit
