Unhappy Compile from Source

I just tried to compile calibre from source but I don't get very far:

Code:
>python setup.py --help               
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "setup.py", line 13, in <module>
    import setup.commands as commands
  File "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_Volumes_Work_MacPorts_dports_ebook_calibre/work/calibre/setup/commands.py", line 28, in <module>
    from setup.translations import POT, GetTranslations, Translations, ISO639
  File "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_Volumes_Work_MacPorts_dports_ebook_calibre/work/calibre/setup/translations.py", line 14, in <module>
    from setup.build_environment import pyqt
  File "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_Volumes_Work_MacPorts_dports_ebook_calibre/work/calibre/setup/build_environment.py", line 124, in <module>
    popplerqt4_inc_dirs = poppler_inc_dirs + [poppler_inc_dirs[0]+'/qt4']
IndexError: list index out of range
If I can't even read the help page than things look bleak indeed. I guess there is a python module missing - but which one.

That error indicates that the build system could not find the include directory containing the headers for POPPLER. Try setting the POPPLER_INC_DIR variable to something like

/sw/build/poppler-0.12.2/poppler:/sw/build/poppler-0.12.2

Thanks for the help. It worked nicely. However now I just noticed "-arch x86_64 -arch ppc64". This is not very helpful for SnowLeopard. For once universal compile on SnowLeopard is now "-arch x86_64 -arch i386" - ppc libs are not supplied any longer:

Code:
ld: warning: in /opt/local/lib/libpoppler.dylib, missing required architecture ppc64 in file
ld: warning: in /opt/local/lib/libMagickWand.dylib, file is not of required architecture
ld: warning: in /opt/local/lib/libMagickCore.dylib, file is not of required architecture
ld: warning: in /opt/local/lib/libpng12.dylib, missing required architecture ppc64 in file
And then for MacPorts there is not real reason to create a universal application (that's unlike a universal lib) unless the users explicitly requests so.



Is there a way to influence the architecture?

Ok, I got the build files patched. However now I get:

Code:
>python setup.py install --prefix=/tmp/calibre

Setting up a source based development environment is only supported on linux. On other platforms, see the User Manual for help with setting up a development environment.
So no standard installation for OS X. Next try:

Code:
>python setup.py osx   

*
* Running osx32
*

/bin/sh: /etc/init.d/vmware: No such file or directory
/bin/sh: /etc/init.d/vmware: No such file or directory

That look like a very special set-up which is close to impossible to replicate.

Hi,

I am a litte further now. I guess OSX-freeze might do the trick. Only: where the heck did you get that libunrar from? Shure google gives tons of hits but I just can't find the master side.

osx-freeze should be what you need to create a .app

I compiled libunrar from source when compiling from source you have to set the SILENT define otherwise it wont work with calibre

Unhappy It does not work after all.

Indeed. Only the amount of /Volumes/sw and /Users/kovid in setup/installer/osx/freeze.py makes me think that creating an application on anything but your computer is close to impossible.

One really would need a 2nd (simpler) freeze command - which without all the hardcoded copy-commands - which aren't really needed for locally compiled version anyway.

Feel free to write one The hard part is getting the C extensions built if you've done that, you should actually just be able to patch the setup/install.py to remove the linux check and it will do the rest for you.

Has anyone had any luck building an app? I would try to write an install.py or a machine-independent version of freeze.py myself, but I am relatively new to python.
