pip can't get pylibbvg

[dgleich]

On linux, this should work:

virtualenv bvg
. bvg/bin/activate
pip install pylibbvg

After installing cython, which should be required

This is still not working as of 2.0.12

Do you have install_requires?

I did add the option  "install_requires = ['cython >= 0.19.2’]” in the setup.py file. The problem is that the command “python setup.py build_ext - - inplace” works fine for building the library. I also tried the command “pip install - -global-option build_ext pylibbvg” but it failed to compile the C code.

Please send me a report on this issue on Monday. The sequence of commands --

virtualenv bvg
. bvg/bin/activate
pip install pylibbvg

Must work.

pylibbvg installation issue is fixed. The virtualenv works fine with the new update of 2.0.21. The previous problem comes from missing the header file folder. I also figured out the way of building the C library before compiling the python interface.

This still fails for me.

It seems that install_requires=['Cython'] does not install the cython dependency correctly. I have updated it to a new version which forces to install cython before the installation of the package. I have tested it on a clean machine and cython is indeed installed before the library.

Okay, this seems like it's sorta working now. But we need to get the code for this version and the packaging script into the repository.
