Error building on Ubuntu 11.10 about pyql HOT 14 CLOSED

Found the error. It seems that distribute package needs to be installed to fix this error.

from pyql.

Will add the dependency to the required packages in setup.py.

Thanks for the report

from pyql.

Thanks Didrik!

Getting this same error building with python 2.7.3. Proceed by:

UserWarning: Unknown Extension options: 'pyrex_directives'

Any ideas? Thanks!

from pyql.

@davidia This is just a warning and is not the root cause of the issue you might have. Can you create a new ticket and copy the entire stdout of the build?

from pyql.

Still getting this error - seems like an obvious error: in the folder quantlib no c files exist.
I am using the make files that come with pyQl.

python setup.py build_ext --inplace

Do you have Cython installed? Do you hade distribute installed?

No .cpp files means that Cython has not run and thus not generated the .cpp files ...

from pyql.

I do have Cython, (working very well) but it appears to me that the make file is looking for .c files.

In the first set of comments I see:
"Will add the dependency to the required packages in setup.py."
I thought possibly this is still the issue.

Maybe the install requires more dependencies and I haven't read the proper install prerequisites?
Thanks for your help, I really want to work with this.

from pyql.

Make 100% sure you have distutils installed correctly. That was my
problem...

Thank you - I will make sure I have distutils installed correctly.

from pyql.

Distutils is up to date. I am on Ubuntu 12.04, python 2.7.
I will continue to try - if any other ideas, please let me know.
Thanks

from pyql.

distutils is part of Python 2.7. I suppose @davidia was thinking of distribute. What version do you have?

from pyql.

Yep, should have checked!

OK - I got it working. And as usual its all about the dependent libraries. I see that setup.py does retrieve the latest distribute library, but make does not. That got me past the first gcc *.c error. Also, needed is the python development installed apt-get install python-dev. Also, I installed (in Ubuntu) sudo apt-get install libquantlib0-dev. And of course, I installed Boost and Quantlib and then ran sudo python setup.py install and finally. I am assuming that installing Boost and Quantlib for c++ is a requirement - is that true?? That should be the first thing someone trying to install should understand. - Thanks - looking forward to building something interesting!!
