Error in building Calibre on ubuntu

thyworld · 06-25-2021, 04:36 AM

Hi
I'm trying to build Cabilre from scratch by following instructions in
https://github.com/kovidgoyal/calibr...ypy/README.rst

I'm stuck with the below error for 2 days now

Spoiler:

Don't understand why I'm getting this error, Any help on this please.....

Those instructions are for building inside a container. If you actually follow the instructions you will be fine.

./setup.py build_dep linux
./setup.py linux64

oh, so we don't have to run "./setup.py bootstrap" after cloning the source?

The dependencies were built successfully.

When I run python3 setup.py linux

I get the below error.

sudo mount /dev/mapper/elib/calibre/bypy/b/linux/64/chroot.img /dev/mapper/elib/calibre/bypy/b/linux/64/chroot
in-chroot python3.7 /bypy main /dev/mapper/elib/bypy program --sign-installers --notarize --compression-level=9
linux64: python3.7: No such file or directory

I have uninstalled python3.8, installed3.7 and still the same error.

Any specific place I have to create a directory? Kindly help me in this...
