Hello again,

I guess the lack of replies suggests that either PyMetis will not run
from Spyder or no one has tried to do this before (hard to believe). For
me this is a frustrating conclusion and I am not sure what to do next.

It is disappointing that products like PyMetis are made available
without adequate instruction for installing them (or perhaps even
providing a Launcher).

Well I tried to install it here on my Linux machine. First the pip install is not helpful as it does not install the dependencies, in this case MeshPy. Second the configure/install procedure uses a non standard setup routine, aksetup. I went ahead and installed MeshPy and also installed the development libraries of Boost as that seems to be a requirement also. At this point I could build meshpy, but then it seg faulted when I ran the test. Best guess this has to do with:
"
If you don't want to continue reading, just try the regular
./configure.py --help
./configure.py --some-options
make
sudo make install
That should do the trick. (By the way: If a config option says "several ok",
then you may specify several values, separated by commas.)"

from here. Since I could not find out that values you are supposed to pass to the configure I gave up.

If you really need this program I would say a post to one of these lists here:

http://lists.tiker.net/

is in order. Maybe someone there knows the necessary magic incantation.


Spyder provides a great development environment.

Sad!

    Hi,

    I am trying to install and run PyMetis from within Spyder and am
    having trouble importing from PyMesh.
    If anyone successfully achieved an execution of PyMetis from within
    Spyder I would be exceedingly grateful to hear if there are any
    traps that I might be missing. I suspect Paths may be a problem but
    am not sure.
    I have spent many hours spinning my wheels in what seems to me to be
    a Unix jungle when all I want to do is partition graphs.

    Chris
