Installation Problem

Community matplotlib-users
#1

Hi there,

I'm not sure, if I'm mailing to the right list, but I will give it a
shot, anyway. I have a problem getting matplotlib installed. After
compiling fine for a while I get the error message:

..
/usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/libz.so when searching for -lz
/usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/libz.a when searching for -lz
/usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/libm.so when searching for -lm

src/_na_cntr.c:1705: syntax error before "init_na_cntr"
error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1

I am using:
matplotlib 0.86.1
python 2.2
Numeric 24.2
numarray 1.5.0

I have modified basedir in setupext.py to
..
'linux2' : ['/usr/local', '/usr', '/glb/home/nlhkl6/install'],
'linux' : ['/usr/local', '/usr', '/glb/home/nlhkl6/install'],
..

the header files for the numarray and the Numeric package are at the
last location under include/Numeric and include/Numarray

Furthermore I have modified in setup.py

rc = dict([('backend', 'PS'), ('numerix', 'Numeric')])

because the original form threw errors.

Any help would be much appreciated!

All the best,
Hanno

Can you tell us more about the OS?

Dear Charlie,

the OS is Linux, Kernel 2.4.21 with SMP running on a Xeon box.

uname -a spits out:

uname -a

Linux rijkes-n-d99878 2.4.21-20.nfswan2 #1 SMP Mon Sep 13 11:28:02
CEST 2004 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Cheers,
Hanno

So the error is coming from PyMODINIT_FUNC, which is apparently for >=
python 2.3. There have been several compatibility issues come up with
2.2 recently. Are you able to try a newer version of python?
