Hello. I am trying to install Pypvm (http://pypvm.sourceforge.net/), the Python interface to PVM ("Parallel Virtual Machine"). Unfortunately, installation fails. I am hoping someone can help me fix it.
I am running Fedora Core 8 Linux. The official Pypvm documentation is very helpful (or something), providing the following: To build Pypvm, cross your fingers and try: make -f Makefile.pre.in boot make Or alternatively, try python setup.py build python setup.py install For me, the "make -f Makefile.pre.in boot" seems to run fine, but the "make" fails, giving (among other things) the following: [EMAIL PROTECTED] pypvm-0.94]$ make gcc -pthread -fPIC -DNDEBUG -O2 -g -pipe -Wall -Wp,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -fexceptions -fstack-protector --param=ssp-buffer-size=4 -m32 - march=i386 -mtune=generic -fasynchronous-unwind-tables -D_GNU_SOURCE -fPIC -I/usr/include/python2.5 -I/usr/lib/python2.5/config -c ././pypvm_coremodule.c -o ./pypvm_coremodule.o ././pypvm_coremodule.c:2:18: error: pvm3.h: No such file or directory ././pypvm_coremodule.c: In function ‘was_error’: ././pypvm_coremodule.c:81: error: ‘PvmOk’ undeclared (first use in this function) ././pypvm_coremodule.c:81: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once ././pypvm_coremodule.c:81: error: for each function it appears in.) ././pypvm_coremodule.c:85: error: ‘PvmBadParam’ undeclared (first use in this function) ././pypvm_coremodule.c:85: error: ‘PvmMismatch’ undeclared (first use in this function) [...] ././pypvm_coremodule.c:1889: error: ‘PvmDupEntry’ undeclared (first use in this function) ././pypvm_coremodule.c:1767: warning: unused variable ‘optModule’ ././pypvm_coremodule.c:1766: warning: unused variable ‘resultModule’ ././pypvm_coremodule.c:1765: warning: unused variable ‘notifyModule’ ././pypvm_coremodule.c:1764: warning: unused variable ‘spawnModule’ ././pypvm_coremodule.c:1763: warning: unused variable ‘dataModule’ ././pypvm_coremodule.c:1762: warning: unused variable ‘exceptionModule’ make: *** [pypvm_coremodule.o] Error 1 [EMAIL PROTECTED] pypvm-0.94]$ In in alternate version, "python setup.py build" similarly fails: [EMAIL PROTECTED] pypvm-0.94]$ python setup.py build running build running build_py running build_ext building 'pypvm_core' extension gcc -pthread -fno-strict-aliasing -DNDEBUG -O2 -g -pipe -Wall -Wp,- D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -fexceptions -fstack-protector --param=ssp-buffer- size=4 -m32 -march=i386 -mtune=generic -fasynchronous-unwind-tables - D_GNU_SOURCE -fPIC -fPIC -I/usr/include -I/usr/include/python2.5 -c pypvm_coremodule.c -o build/temp.linux-i686-2.5/pypvm_coremodule.o pypvm_coremodule.c:2:18: error: pvm3.h: No such file or directory pypvm_coremodule.c: In function ‘was_error’: pypvm_coremodule.c:81: error: ‘PvmOk’ undeclared (first use in this function) pypvm_coremodule.c:81: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once pypvm_coremodule.c:81: error: for each function it appears in.) pypvm_coremodule.c:85: error: ‘PvmBadParam’ undeclared (first use in this function) [...] pypvm_coremodule.c:1889: error: ‘PvmDupEntry’ undeclared (first use in this function) pypvm_coremodule.c:1767: warning: unused variable ‘optModule’ pypvm_coremodule.c:1766: warning: unused variable ‘resultModule’ pypvm_coremodule.c:1765: warning: unused variable ‘notifyModule’ pypvm_coremodule.c:1764: warning: unused variable ‘spawnModule’ pypvm_coremodule.c:1763: warning: unused variable ‘dataModule’ pypvm_coremodule.c:1762: warning: unused variable ‘exceptionModule’ error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1 [EMAIL PROTECTED] pypvm-0.94]$ Can anyone help me get it to work?
