[GRASS-dev] why is r.li.setup unavailable in GRASS 7?

[William Kyngesburye]

Hmm, everyone having these "errors" - is it during compilation or at runtime?

I thought at first it was runtime, based on the isolated quoting of the error only, and this would make it very mysterious since the Mac compilation creates a 32bit python wrapper exactly for this problem.

But Michael's error quote shows it at compilation time.  this makes much more sense - this is where make runs the command to generate help, but at this point the 32bit wrapper is not made yet so the default system python runs in 64bit mode.  Michael and I have workied around this by creating a dummy 32bit python wrapper before compilation and putting it in the PATH temporarily.

Did you forget this Michael?  I just compiled GRASS 7, with the wrapper in the PATH.  no errors.


So, partly a problem of documenting build process, partly a makefile problem.

I've been lazy updating the Mac build readme, too much change trying to figure out weirdness like this.  For this problem, I guess I was hoping we wouldn't have to deal with the 32/64bit wxPython problem for long, that wxPython devs would figure out Cocoa for 64bits sooner than they did (2.9 is still technically beta).  Then you'd have a wxPython for the default system arch (64bit starting with Snow Leopard, though you'd have to install it) and make would just work, and there would be no need for a wrapper before or after compilation.

I vaguely remember suggesting moving the wrapper build to the beginning of the make process, but was vetoed.
