Installation challenges continue #43

Open keflavich opened 2 months ago

During my latest attempt on Mac OS X 13.6 Ventura, I ran into a series of problems:

  1. The linked libraries moved location. That's fixed with 469483a80b2633303624d76c13bee54ebb3fdcd1 and 5a10b43339edf8d72bfccb3e828c5431d0ef6eef
  2. My fortran compiler was producing x86_64 instead of arm64 files. I fixed that by installing an appropriate fortran version from https://github.com/fxcoudert/gfortran-for-macOS/releases

  3. Python now complains loudly about calling the installer directly:

        ********************************************************************************
    Please avoid running ``setup.py`` and ``easy_install``.
    Instead, use pypa/build, pypa/installer or other
    standards-based tools.

    See https://github.com/pypa/setuptools/issues/917 for details.
    ********************************************************************************
  4. Setup no longer finds the correct .so file by default because there are files named ./pyradex/radex/radex.cpython-310-darwin.so etc (i.e., they're radex.<something>.so instead of radex.so). 3b0625f fixes that by globbing for precompiled .so objects, which we expect to find if python setup.py install_radex completed successfully.

So... install kinda works again on my mac at least.
