Pip3 install on raspberry pi freezes #228

Closed raspb-robot-1324 closed 11 months ago

raspb-robot-1324 commented 11 months ago

I have an issue with pip3 install PyGLM. It works the first two minutes, then freezes at this install(when pip3 install -v PyGLM is used) : 

 glm/glm/./ext/../detail/type_vec4.hpp:17:9: note: 'glm::i16vec4' {aka 'struct glm::vec<4, short int, (glm::qualifier)0>'} declared here
    struct vec<4, T, Q>.

Any ideas on how to fix? P.S: I'm using Raspberry pi 3B+ P.P.S: I've tried all know solutions listed on this forum and elsewhere. Nothing worked!

Hi there @raspb-robot-1324 ,

I believe this might be a memory issue. PyGLM requires a lot of memory to build and raspberry pis have limited RAM. That could be why it freezes too. piwheels.org has the same issue. I've contacted them, but I couldn't find exactly where.

I know too little about compilers and linux OSes to give you any substantial help. However, perhaps you can increase the swap size (if your sd card is large enough, and that is possible in raspbian without breaking anything).

Sorry I can't be of more help.

Do you have any idea of the swap size necessary to perform this install?

Oh, and also, I only want to install PyGLM for the package joycon-python, which depends on it. Is their a way to bypass this, or maybe install some lighter version of PyGLM?

You might have luck with PyGLM version 1.1.7 or 0.5.3b1, which were the last versions that were built correctly by piwheels.org. Please have a look at their website, search for pyglm and look for previous releases, there you'll find some wheels that should work.

It worked! Thank you so much!
