[itom-discussions] CMake can't find Python3.4 library

[dan n. <dne...@ya...>]

Hi,

I created a build variable for PYTHON_LIBRARY with value /usr/lib64/libpython3.4m.so.1.0. In /usr/lib, python3.4 is a directory containing a site-packages directory, which contains:

easy_install.py  pip-8.1.2-py3.4.egg-info  setuptools
_markerlib       pkg_resources             setuptools-19.6.2-py3.4.egg-info
pip              __pycache__

These are directories, but none contain python3.4m.so.1 or anything like it.

One might expect a link in /usr/lib to /usr/lib64/libpython3.4m.so.1.0, but it isn't there.

I also set PYTHON_EXECUTABLE and PYTHON_INCLUDE_DIR, remembering to use a FILEPATH for PYTHON_EXECUTABLE and PYTHON_LIBRARY and to use a PATH for PYTHON_INCLUDE_DIR. When I run CMake configure, these variables disappear, suggesting CMake-gui is finding a problem (but it doesn't indicate what this problem is). When I run generate, it provides a new warning:

WARNING: Target "qitom" requests linking to directory "/usr/lib/python3.4".  Targets may link only to libraries.  CMake is dropping the item.

So, for some reason, CMake is trying to find the python3.4 library in /usr/lib, not /usr/lib64.

P.S. What git gui is best for linux? I have qgit and gitg installed.
