Installation and import issues on Ubuntu and MacOS #36

Open danousna opened 3 years ago

danousna commented 3 years ago

Hi there,

I am having trouble installing the library on both macos (big sur) and ubuntu (18.04).

On macos I am having a big fat error before the end of the pip install (seems to contain some things related to Keychain ...). I have all the requirements installed with brew.

On ubuntu, the installation succeeds, however when importing the package I have : ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'potrace._potrace' which seems to be because the _potrace.pyx is not compiled ?

Are these problems related to the transition to poetry maybe ? Or I missed something during the installation process.

Thanks in advance.

Hum, so I just tested on ubuntu with Poetry, and it seems to install fine and the import works.

However it's the pip install that's not working.

Fwiw, I'm trying to install on Ubuntu 18.04. Fine until pip install . I get:

scott@Yogi:~/src/github/pypotrace$ pip install .
Directory '.' is not installable. File 'setup.py' not found.

Indeed, there is no setup.py file in the folder. So the instructions for installation don't work.
