| Summary | 0007501: Error installing Python bindings | ||||||||
| Description | With the VTK 5.2 branch I get an error during "make install", after an otherwise successful build. The installation of the Python bindings fails, see the build output under "Additional Information". The problem is that the setup.py script seems to try to copy stuff to $CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX/lib/python2.5/site-packages, but the python2.5 subdirectory does not even exist at that point, let alone the site-packages one. Creating python2.5/site-packages by hand (AND setting the relevant directory on PYTHONPATH to get through the check) fixes this. (Unrelated to the problem here, but, blegh, why does VTK default to using those stupid eggs...) | ||||||||
| Steps To Reproduce | 1. Run ccmake 2. If have set CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX to /home/stud/scivis/vtk5.2, and am building in a separate build directory (which is not a subdir of the source dir), and VTK_WRAP_PYTHON to ON, CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE is Release 3. press configure until generation is enabled, then generate makefiles 4. make 5. make install --> error as below | ||||||||
