Hi Peter,

thanks, generally a good idea. I will look into that. Problem is that
even the "standard places" are not standard these days. Both apl
and python could live in either /usr/include or else in /usr/local/include
and the ./configure of GNU APL can not easily figure how python was
installed.

It also seems like python does not have pkg-config support (which
would tell ./configure these things).

Also thanks for reminding me of README-10-python, I had
completely forgotten it.

Best Regards,
Juergen

Why not make a note in the python README for users to make a symbolic link
from their actual python location to a standard place such as /usr/include/python?

Then configure need only refer to that.

actually:

CXXFLAGS="-I /usr/include/python3.10" ./configure --with-python

Hi Emmanuel,

could you please translate the french error message to English?

No idea yet what this is about.

In the meantime it may help to copy Python.h from:
/usr/include/python3.11/Python.h
to:
/usr/include/Python.h
Or configure GNU APL like this:

CXXFLAGS="-I /usr/include/python3.10" ./configure

Jürgen

Dear Jürgen,
TL,DR : I tried to recompile gnu-apl with the Python library, but got a compilation error :

Some details :
In a fresh VPATH directory I did :
../configure --with-sqlite3 --with-gtk3 --with-python
which ended with :

The curious thing is that Python.h is present on my system :
charpent@zen-book-flip:~/Dev/apl/trunk/obj$ locate Python.h
locate: warning: database ‘/var/cache/locate/locatedb’ is more than 8 jours old (actual age is 30,1 jours)
/usr/include/python3.11/Python.h
/usr/share/doc/Macaulay2/Python/html/_to__Python.html
charpent@zen-book-flip:~/Dev/apl/trunk/obj$ ls -l /usr/include/python3.11/Python.h
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2854 13 mars  13:18 /usr/include/python3.11/Python.h
I might have to specify some library in an option to ../configure, but can't figure out which.
My setup is Debian testing, used fairly often for development (I'm more or less in the Sagemath development group), with as little non-Debian software I can manage (two notorious exceptions : Zotero, which is a sine qua non of my work) and, of course, Sagemath (built from my local git clone). And an armfull of R packages, which are probably quite irrelevant.
Logs attached (I hope).
