CMake build issue on Ubuntu 16.06, arm64

[rytrose]

I'm looking to use Parselmouth on an NVIDIA Jetson TX2, but I'm running into this CMake error. I updated CMake to 13.3.1. The traceback from sudo pip install praat-parselmouth is as follows:

@rytrose Argh. Yes, my bad. There is a problem in the latest release's (0.3.2) source distribution of Parselmouth. I forgot to include the test directory in MANIFEST.in, which is why it is not in the tar.gz pip downloads but referenced in the CMakeLists.txt

It's been fixed on the master branch since I discovered this issue, but since I hope to release 0.4.0 soon, I had hoped I could get away with it.

So, a quick solution is downloading the source of 0.3.2 (tar.gz or zip) and running pip install . in the root directory. (Or of course the master branch, if you feel adventurous and want to use some new features.)

Apart from that: if you want/insist, I could draw up a version 0.3.3 that has this issue fixed.

Hey @YannickJadoul, thanks for the super speedy reply :) I can definitely leverage your solutions, and leave release versioning up to you. I'll let you know if I have any other issues that would want me to insist lol.

@rytrose I just found out that I can make a 'post-release', that can fix this kind of packaging errors. So I'm now seeing if I can do this, such that I don't have to release 0.3.3, but rather 0.3.2.post1.

[rytrose]

Awesome! pip install . on master worked for me too, thanks!

[YannickJadoul]

Cool, that post-release seems to be working, now :-) pip install praat-parselmouth will now also result in an installable source dist.

I'll close this issue; thanks for reporting!

PS: The compilation of Praat takes quite some time and there are unfortunately no ARM binary wheels available. If you need to install multiple times on the same architecture you might find the pip wheel praat-parselmouth command quite useful, creating your own pre-compiled wheel that you can install.

EDIT:

I'll let you know if I have any other issues

Yes, please do! :-)
For other questions that are maybe not a real issue but just unclear, there's also the Gitter, btw: https://gitter.im/PraatParselmouth/Lobby
