#2845 closed patch (worksforme)

QGIS won't compile with python

Reported by: Alexbit Owned by: timlinux
Priority: major: does not work as expected Milestone: Version 1.6.0
Component: Python plugins and bindings Version: 1.0.2
Keywords: python bindings Cc:
Must Fix for Release: No Platform: Linux
Platform Version: Linux Awaiting user input: yes

Description (last modified by jef)

If you try to compiling any version of qgis diffrent from svn trunk on Archlinux (Linux 2.6.34-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) D CPU 3.20GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux whit KDE 4.4.4) you're unable to bind with python so you cannot get the fetch python plugin menu for install plug-in. I've try on the same machine (see above) with stable and develop but, as I say, only svn compile with no error and python bindings.

Same situation on a laptop with analog software config.

Moreover, also svn need to be manually patch at line 1051 of src/app/composer/qgscomposer.cpp. by changing if ( splitterState != QVariant::QVariant() ) in if ( splitterState != QVariant() )

Thank you for the attention. Best regards, Alessio

Do you get any error messages or terminal output? Which Qt, PyQt4 and SIP version is ArchLinux using? It might be useful to post a build log.

Ok, so python support is only builtin for 1.5. Earlier version probably just don't detect that SIP 4.10 is newer than 4.7 (see also #2446).

Anyway, what (runtime) errors do you get regarding the python support with 1.5?

comment:5 by Alexbit, 14 years ago

I'm sorry but, probably, I was not clear in the exposition of the problem. As I say in the firsy post, there's no problem "compiling any version of qgis diffrent from svn". So, in other words there's NO problem with 1.5. In my tests only stable (LTS) and develop version are afflicted by the problem that cause the inability of bind python.

Ah ok, I didn't get it. So this is a duplicate of #2678.

Type: bugpatch
Version: 1.0.2

I'm sorry but I still that is an unsolved ticket. Qgis won't build python support on any machine that have sip 4.10.x installed. I've try on a bounce of machine I've got the same result.

As I say, it seem's that the only UNaffected versione is 1.5. I-ve search over the internet and Ive try all the proposed workaround but no one works. Moreover it seems to be one of the must recurrency "bug".

Please con you modify the code to allow the correct recognition of sip greater then 4.7?

Hope in your help.Please.

What about the patch above?

comment:11 by Alexbit, 14 years ago

I've try the suggest patch here and on bug 2678 but they don't solve. Moreover with google I've found some ideas but they got the same result. :-(

Also I think that this is the most interesting (http://www.orocos.org/forum/rtt/rtt-dev/kdl-not-detecting-sip-410-python-bindings) but i determ another error during compiling (miss a file)

Are you sure you applied the patch correctly and did a clean rebuild? The SIP detection problem should be fixed with the patch - at least it works just fine on sid here.

comment:13 by Alexbit, 14 years ago

I've done the best I can but I can't be sure on my operate because I'm not so skilled.

Please, cause I'm not a programmer, can you courtesy explain me a detailed procedure to apply the patch?

As I say I'm absolutely interesed on install 1.0.2 because I'm in a production environment and I need the maximum stability.

Hope again inyour preciouse help. Thank you.

(ps: have you see that I'm on Archlinux x86_64 with KDE full updd
