Failed to install praat-parselmouth

[emmanuel3wa]

Hello everyone

I will need to use a python script using the imports below.

import parselmouth from parselmouth.praat import call

I first use the code : python { pip { install "parselmouth" } }

Then i understand that parselmouth is not in the list of possible imports by chaquopy that I found at this address :

https://chaquo.com/pypi-7.0/

Do you have a solution to help me solve this problem?

Thank you in advance for the attention paid to my request.

[mhsmith]

Thanks for the report. I assume you mean praat-parselmouth the phonetics library, and not parselmouth the ad services library. This package isn't currently a priority, but I'll update this issue if we add it in the future. And if anyone else wants it too, please click the thumbs-up button above.

The package build tool is now open-source, so if you'd like to try building this package yourself, follow the instructions here. And if you're successful, please make a pull request so we can add the package to the public repository.

hello, i really need use praat-parselmouth and i was unable to build this package with the build tool that you developed. i will be so grateful if you build this package and add it to the public repo.

[mhsmith]

i was unable to build this package with the build tool that you developed.

Please post the error message.

[moariyenkhuien]

when package is building with cmake i get this error:

../../../praat/sys/sendpraat.c:49:11: fatal error: 'X11/Xlib.h' file not found

include <X11/Xlib.h>

             ^~~~~~~~~~~~

OK, please create a fork of this repository and push your meta.yaml file along with any patches, then post the link here.

[moariyenkhuien]

i didnt make any patches just the meta.yaml file

[mhsmith]

There's no way that file could work, because there's no such thing as numpy 23.5. Please push the actual file that produced your problem.

And make sure you're using the current version of the build tool, because it's had some fixes in the last few days.

[mhsmith]

OK, I've reproduced your error with the recipe in #961:

I don't have time to look into this any further, but obviously there will be no X11 support on Android. So the first question to ask is whether X11 is a core part of this package's functionality, or if it's only included conditionally. If it is conditional, see if you can work out where that condition is being determined, and how it can be fixed to disable the X11 feature.

Separately, the build failed on armeabi-v7a because of a missing ftello symbol. This is probably caused by an incorrect definition of _FILE_OFFSET_BITS, which you can find examples of in the patches of other recipes. Although it may be possible to fix many of these packages at once by editing build-common.sh to add -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=32 to the CFLAGS on the 32-bit ABIs.

[moariyenkhuien]

is there any chance that you build this package in future?

[mhsmith]

Only if someone provides a working recipe in a PR, but I don't have time to create one myself. See #961 for a starting point.

I will continue this thread with what I have managed to do. Turns out you can just comment out the line "#include <X11/Xlib.h>" the code doesn't actually use Xlib if it is compiled with the nogui oprion, which it is. Of course then I ran into an issue with linking, it wasn't linking the python library, so I changed this line in setup.py: cmake_args=shlex.split(os.environ.get('PARSELMOUTH_EXTRA_CMAKE_ARGS', ' "')), to: cmake_args=shlex.split(os.environ.get('PARSELMOUTH_EXTRA_CMAKE_ARGS', '-DCMAKE_CXX_STANDARD_LIBRARIES="-L/home/boomboompsh/chaquopy/server/pypi/packages/praat-parselmouth/build/0.4.2/cp38-cp38-android_21_arm64_v8a/requirements/chaquopy/lib/ -lpython3.8"')),

After fixing that there was an error that I fixed by changing line 190 of praat-parselmouth/build/0.4.2/cp38-cp38-android_21_arm64_v8a/env/lib/python3.8/site-packages/skbuild/utils/init.py from old_threshold = distutils_log._global_log.threshold to old_threshold = distutils_log._global_log.level

haven't actually tested to see if it works yet, but at least all the compile time errors are gone. I can't figure out how to turn this into a recipe, I've just been doing manual modifications to the files

[boomboompsh]

Can confirm the wheel does actually work. I 'll slowly work on figuring out how patches are supposed to be made and PR my horrible hacky solution

[mhsmith]

To make a patch, see "If any changes are needed to make the build work" in the README. Patch files can be created with the diff tool.
