sparky module segfaults

2002-12-21 Thread Jack Howarth
Could someone familar with python give sparky a test on debian i386 sid? On debian ppc sid the program segfaults on loading its python module. The source for the program is available from... http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/home/sparky/ as sparky-source-3.106.tar.gz. If you untar it in /usr/local/src a

Could the maintainer please fix this or someone NMU it? The fix is absolutely trivial if you use the new Pmw.1.1.tar.gz from http://download.sourceforge.net/pmw/. In fact a complete diff sans changelog changes is attached and will work perfectly when... tar -zxvf Pmw.1.1.tar.gz mv Pmw.1.1 pyth

Actually on second thought we better stick with the current python-pmw_0.8.5-6 adjusted to build against python 2.2. Things like pymol are having issues running with pmw 1.1. The patches required to get python-pmw_0.8.5-6 built with python 2.2 are attached below... Thanks in advance.

Michael, Could you change that NMU to a Pmw 1.1 release please? The Pmw developer just gave me a fix for pymol (it was misusing a call which is now marked as an error message in 1.1). So we really should have no reason now not to migrate forward to Pmw 1.1. Thanks.

please help test sparky

clue on sparky

2002-12-21 Thread Jack Howarth
I believe I may have a clue as to why sparky is segfaulting in when run as a python extension. The upstream maintainer is using python 2.1.1 and tcl 8.3.4 so I built against our python 2.1.3 and tck 8.3.3. However I just noticed that sid's python2.1 is in fact built against tcl-8.4 now. Could t

Emil, Actually it is probably something else. I had a user with YellowDog Linux 2.3 try sparky against python 2.1.1 and tcl 8.3.3 and he segfaults as well. Are you on i386 or ppc debian? If i386, I would be very interested if sparky segfaults on that arch as well. It has been built on redhat lin

sparky problems resolved

2002-12-23 Thread Jack Howarth
Just in case anyone is interested, I have resolved the problems of building a usable python version of sparky with debian ppc sid by patching it to build under gcc 3.2.2. Interestingly the gcc 2.95.4 build segfaults but a gcc 3.2.2 build works fine. Since sparky uses its own __tkinter.so with t
