Tried to compile it, says

Code: Select all

_pycdgAux.c:36:17: error: SDL.h: No such file or directory

[linuxcbon]

Ok now I installed SDL.
SDL.h is in /usr/local/include/SDL/SDL.h
Still it doesnt find it !
So I changed the gcc options. It finds SDL now !
But it says

Code: Select all

_pycdgAux.c:37:27: error: pygame/pygame.h: No such file or directory

linuxcbon,

To install pykaraoke you need:

PyKaraoke requires the following libraries to be installed:

* Python
* Pygame
* WxPython (v2.6 or later)
* libsdl source

If you download & install these , from Mu's site:

http://dotpups.de/dotpups/Programming/P ... .5-dev.pup
http://dotpups.de/dotpups/Programming/P ... on-2.5.pup
http://dotpups.de/dotpups/Games/LibSDL1.2-forDoom.pup
http://dotpups.de/dotpups/Games/LibSDL1 ... static.pup

then download the source for pygame from:

http://www.pygame.org/ftp/pygame-1.7.1release.tar.gz

Then run ./setup.py from the pygame directory. This should install pygame.

(The installer will complain about not finding Smpeg & Numeric, and I've no idea whether they are essential for pykaraoke or not...If they are needed, Numeric is available from sourceforge, & smpeg source is available via svn from http://icculus.org/smpeg/ )

Then you need to get a working wxPython going. When I saw the source is over 20Mbytes, that's when I, and my suffering dial-up bailed out! Maybe you can get wxPython compiled from another distro? Let us know how you go.

[muggins]

Actually pygame, smpeg & numeric are available from packages.debian.org so, if they work OK, wxpython should be the only hurdle remaining.

usr = puppy
pwd = linux

[askanthea]

Ive downloaded puppy 0.43 - running live
downloaded all the associated files and depenencies, and still nothing...

I'm at a loss.

Should I be using an older version of puppy or an hdd installed version?

Andy

[muggins]

When you say "running live", do you have a pup_save.2fs file on usbkey or hard disk? This would be where the packages you've downloaded would be installed, after you've clicked them. If you run pykaraoke, (or whatever the executable is called), in a console, what happens?

[askanthea]

running direct off the cd and not installed or saved anywhere.
nothing happens atall - ive now tried an older version of puppy and its asking for python2.5 - so im going back to the newest version again.

[askanthea]

Okies, restarted and rebooted direct from the cd, no saves - all in memory. Followed your link and downloaded each dependency in turn the ended with the pykaraoke file.pet no conflicts or anything missing, click on pykaraoke or pykaraoke_mini and nothing - zippo.....

using pup-430.iso - - -

I think you need a pup_save file to install stuff to.

[askanthea]

Okies, now created a pup save and rebooted, still nothing.
ive clicked everything.

[muggins]

If you run pykaraoke, (or whatever the executable is called), in a console, what happens?

[askanthea]

how do i do that?
sorry, not used to the console,
Command prompts etc i can cope with, but this console? it doesnt use commands like dir etc, so how do i find what the executable is called or where it lives? sorry to be a thicko

Andy

[askanthea]

it says

env: python: No such file or directory

[askanthea]

it says its missing file /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/_pycdgaux.so has these missing library files libpython2.5.so.1.0

Install Python from devx_xxx.sfs or http://www.dotpups.de/puppy3/dotpups/Pr ... 1-i486.pet
