[Pyode-user] Pyrex not needed for installation?

[German L. M. <ger...@gm...>]

Hi. I'm an ODE user and wanted to check pyode's performance. Some time ago I
used Ubuntu's version of pyode and had some trouble so here I am trying to
compile this.

The README file says:

> - Pyrex 0.9.3 (or higher)
>   http://www.cosc.canterbury.ac.nz/~greg/python/Pyrex/
>   This is only required for PyODE development; you don't need it to install
>   and run PyODE.
>

However, it seems I do need Pyrex to compile pyode:

> python setup.py build
> INFO: <ode/ode.h> found in /usr/local/include
> INFO: Creating ode_trimesh.c
> pyrexc -o ode_trimesh.c -I. -Isrc src/ode.pyx
> sh: pyrexc: not found
> ERROR: An error occured while generating the C source file.
>

I don't really know the development architecture of pyode, but, is there
anyway to keep the user from installing Pyrex? I'd rather use standard and
popular software (and pyrex doesn't look like it is).

Thanks,
Germán
