Phoenix snapshots builds, can't import

[a***@gmail.com]

Hi list. I seems to have built and installed a snapshot build of phoenix
(wxPython_Phoenix-3.0.1.dev75841) without any errors that I noticed. When I
fire up python (3.3) and import wx, I get the following error:

Python 3.3.2 (default, Dec 26 2013, 15:57:09)

[GCC 4.5.4] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

import wx

from wx.core import *
File "/usr/lib/python3.3/site-packages/wx/core.py", line 6, in <module>
from ._core import *
ImportError: dynamic module does not define init function (PyInit_siplib)
I'm sure I must have missed something simple, this seems far too basic an

error to be anything subtle.

I too have this issue on Linux Mint. I was so happy when I got Phoenix to
build (ia32libs issue), and then I got the exact same problem. If I start
python3 while in the Phoenix directory (in which the wx directory is
contained), import wx does work. It has to be something that is not being
installed, the wrong library getting loaded or a path thing, I just don't
know how to run through the possibilities.

Sorry,

David

What build command(s) did you use?

an error to be anything subtle.

Let's see if we can figure out if it was a build problem or an install
problem. So first remove everything from
/usr/lib/python3.3/site-packages/wx, and then verify that there is no
other wx by running:

python3.3 -c "import wx; print(wx.version())"

You should get an ImportError. Next, try to use Phoenix from the build
folder and see if it works:

cd /path/to/your/Phoenix
PYTHONPATH=$PWD python3.3 samples/simple/hello.py

Then report back the results.

I had the same issue, too, on Ubuntu 13.10.

There seems to be an installation bug. First of all, here is how I build
and install Phoenix:

wget http://wxpython.org/Phoenix/snapshot-builds/wxPython_Phoenix-3.0.1.dev76120.tar.gz
sudo apt-get install libglu1-mesa-dev libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-dev
libgconf2-dev libgtk-3-dev libgtk2.0-dev libwebkit-dev
sudo pip3 install wxPython_Phoenix-3.0.1.dev76120.tar.gz

Everything seems to go normal, and I end up with the following installed
files:

cd /usr/local/lib/python3.3/dist-packages && ls wx

As you can see, there is a bogus siplib.cpython-33m.so which really should
be siplib.so. After replacing:

sudo mv wx/siplib.so wx/siplib.cpython-33m.so

"import wx" works fine.

Let's see into setup.py...

# Add a bogus extension module (will never be built here since we
# are overriding the build command to do it from build.py) so
# things like bdist_egg will know that there are extension modules
# and will name the dist with the full platform info.
ext_modules = [Extension('siplib', [])],

And let's recall the installation log...

To use wxPython from the build folder (without installing):

been installed.

So this is clearly a bug in Phoenix installation config. The big comment

Thanks for the diagnosis. I've been meaning to get rid of that hack or
finding a better way to do it.
