Re: [gtk-osx-users] Error building harfbuzz

[Adam Puleo <adam puleo icloud com>]

Hello John,

It appears that ensure and pip are not installed:

*** Error during phase install of harfbuzz: ########## Error running make DESTDIR=/Users/adampuleo/gtk/inst/_jhbuild/root-harfbuzz install *** [22/42]

  [1] Rerun phase install
  [2] Ignore error and continue to next module
  [3] Give up on module
  [4] Start shell
  [5] Reload configuration
choice: 4
exit shell to continue with build
bash-3.2$ python -m ensure pip
/Users/adampuleo/gtk/inst/bin/python: No module named ensure
bash-3.2$ pip install six
bash: pip: command not found
bash-3.2$ 

Easy_install wants to install pip in /Library:

[Errno 13] Permission denied: '/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/test-easy-install-70918.pth’

Outside of jhbuild should I install pip, and then in jhbuild shell install six via pip?

Thanks,

-Adam

Hello,

I’m trying to build Gtk3 and it’s failing while building harfbuzz saying the Python module “six” is missing. I tried installing “six” in my base OS but that didn’t help.

Any ideas?

gtk-osx-build-setup.sh and "jhbuild bootstrap” completed successfully.

The error happens while executing: jhbuild build python meta-gtk-osx-bootstrap meta-gtk-osx-gtk3

Because you’re building python that’s what gtk-docs is using for its python interpreter and that’s where you need to install six. The easiest way is to drop to a shell and set up pip:

python -m ensure pip

pip install six
