#39 _gi.pyd module does not get installed in gobject-introspection/giscanner

[Cosimo Lupo]

Hi,
Thanks for making PyGObject available for Windows!

I installed the latest version of pygi-aio-3.18.2_rev4-setup.exe and I selected the check-box to also install the gobject-introspection package.

However when I go to C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\gnome\lib\gobject-introspection\giscanner I can't find any _giscanner.pyd extension module.

And because of that, when I try to run the g-ir-scanner script, I get ImportError: No module named _giscanner.

I looks to me you somehow forgot to copy the _giscanner.pyd file to the gobject-introspection/giscanner package?

I hope it'll get fixed in the next release
Thank you in advance

Cosimo

Ah I get it, thanks to point this out, When I start to split of devel package in 3.18.x installer, gir-scanner also moved out, made "GIR" package have misleading description. You can get the complete files from https://sourceforge.net/projects/pygobjectwin32/files/pygi-aio-3.18.2_gcc_devel.7z/download

I will move out GIR packages into devel packages next time.

After checking the situation I decide to put only g-ir-compiler and GIR files in installer in the case that if user spot mistake in typelib they could fix gir file and recompile it. The rest will reside on separate devel archive which intended for those with gcc familiarity.
