Re: [Visualpython-users] Ubuntu packages

[Tony R. <To...@br...>]

Yeah I have a feeling the package is simply missing a binary dep in there somewhere.  I tried apt-get build-dep hoping that it would pull in something that was missing from the binary packages's deps, but it still faulted.  So for grins I rebuilt the package w/buildpackage... but same thing.

I'll keep on the report as I would really like to see Visual 5 in the repo's and functional by final.  Building from source is *nice*, but I like tidy packages. I feel like vpython is this hidden gem that I have just now stumbled across; I think log/data visualization is very powerful, and visual is letting me focus on the real work.

Interesting. So you're running on a binary Karmic already, and have used the
binary python-visual package from their repositories. I had backported the
package to my (somewhat modified, in some respects not quite vanilla anymore)
Jaunty system, and it worked straight out of the box using the "apt-get build-
dep" and "dpkg-buildpackage" approach.

Hope it's getting fixed, soon.
