cythonise fails / distribute issue about pyql HOT 8 CLOSED

I can replicate the issue on a Debian box running Python 2.6. Investigating

from pyql.

It sounds like the version of distribute you use might be the issue. On my debian box, I had to upgrade distribute to distribute 0.6.14 to make it work.

I haven't digged into the root cause of the issue but it seems that Cython is not called properly and does not generate the cpp files, and even if the language=c++ is forced on the extension, it tries to build c files.

Can you try upgrading distribute ?

pip install --upgrade distribute

from pyql.

output from: pip freeze -- user
Cython==0.16
distribute==0.6.30

Same error

Thanks for investigating. I'm not experienced with cython but I'll try figure out what's going on too...

from pyql.

Here is my output (my pip version does not support --user) . I have Cython 0.17.1. This seems to be the only difference

I've upgrade to cython 0.17 - same result. There maybe a difference in that some of my modules are installed under .local instead of the system (made sure I'm loading the correct ones!) I'm going to spend a couple of hours digging today and will report back.

If I remove

from setuptools import setup, find_packages

cythonize springs into action. Checked setuptools version and it's 0.6c11 - the latest

from pyql.

The issue is that you should be using distribute and not setuptools. Not sure why your setuptools install has not been properly replaced setuptools but it should.

Correct, problem with my paths meant I was picking up the system version. Thanks for your help and my apologies for distracting you with such a trivial issue.
