pyq doesn't pick up 64bit q on OSX

[gerrymanoim]

Perhaps I'm doing something wrong, but no matter what I try I can't get pyq to recognize that it should be looking for q in the m64 directory. It seems like setup.py is reading QHOME and doing the right thing, so I'm not quite sure what the problem is:

>> pip install --no-cache-dir pyq

We currently only have a 32-bit binary wheel for macOS on PyPI. Please try specifying --no-binary pyq option for pip:

pip install --no-binary pyq pyq

Please note that you will need to have either xcode or "Command Line Tools" installed because with the --no-binary option pip will have to compile pyq for you.

Ah got it! I've tried running the above and seem to hit a RuntimeError: no python dll.

I've managed to trace this to output = subprocess.check_output(['otool', '-L', executable]) in get_python_dll in setup.py. On my system this has the following output (none of which matches the if condition):

In [53]: output.splitlines()
Out[53]:
[b'/Users/g/anaconda/bin/python:',
 b'\t/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreFoundation.framework/Versions/A/CoreFoundation (compatibility version 150.0.0, current version 855.17.0)',
 b'\t@rpath/libpython3.6m.dylib (compatibility version 3.6.0, current version 3.6.0)',
 b'\t/usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1197.1.1)']

In [54]: for line in output.splitlines():
    ...:     print(b'Python' in line)
    ...:
False
False
False
False

I do manage my python environment through anaconda, which is not necessarily the default on the mac. But I would match the if condition you have for the linux systems.

Is there something off on my system?

We are working on improving the situation for conda users. Meanwhile, the workaround is to add a setup.cfg file to the root of the source tree with the following contents:

[config]
python_dll=libpython3.6m.so

See Installing from source code for details on how to obtain PyQ source code.

Perfect - thanks!
