So I have been trying to install the graph-tool module on my Ubuntu system all day now. I just cant seem to figure it out. Basically I want to use the package in jupyter notebook (in an anaconda enviroment). I followed several installation instructions, but nothing seems to work.
This for example: https://gist.github.com/dlozeve/ed59bba8bc8cb9b21e2af36cc9766938
I get to the configuration (adjusting for the fact that I am using python2.7),
./configure --prefix=/home/timo/anaconda2/envs/graph/ --with-python-module-path=/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages
yielding:
configure: error: *** A compiler with support for C++14 language features is required.
Does anyone know what I might be doing wrong? Or as a simpler way to get graph-tool to work in my jupyter notebook?
Thank you very much!
The configure script is telling you exactly what is wrong: You need a compiler with C++14 support. This just means that your GCC is too old.
(You haven't told us any pertinent detail, such as the compiler version you have, library versions, etc, so we can only guess. But luckily, the configure diagnostics is crystal clear.)
A simpler way to install graph-tool would be for you to upgrade your distro (14.04 is outdated) and use the Ubuntu packages, as described here: https://git.skewed.de/count0/graph-tool/wikis/installation-instructions#debian-ubuntu
As graph-tool does not seems to run in an anaconda environment and Ubuntu 14.04 does not have support the latest C++ compiler that is needed, I did install Ubuntu 16.04 and followed firstly [https://www.google.de/amp/s/www.rosehosting.com/blog/how-to-install-jupyter-on-an-ubuntu-16-04-vps/amp/] and then finally installed graph-tool as described on the homepage.
This way I get to use jupyter notebook and am still able to import graph-tool.

Currently, I am working on the Ns3 simulator and now trying to enable the pyviz visualizer. According to the doc, I have downloaded the three dependencies which are
py27-pygtk
py27-pygoocanvas
py27-pygraphviz
Now in order to use this, I still need to enable the python bindings which I used /usr/bin/python2.7 ./waf configure wanna to check what needs for enabling python bindings. The result shows that
Python Bindings : not enabled (PyBindGen version not correct and newer version could not be retrieved)
So I checked the Doc and downloaded PyBindGen (version 0.18.0). The output shows
Installed /Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/PyBindGen-0.18.0-py2.7.egg
Processing dependencies for PyBindGen==0.18.0
Finished processing dependencies for PyBindGen==0.18.0
After I ran the configuration check the results still showed that PyBindGen version not correct and newer version could not be retrieved
So I presume that is that because I installed the wrong version of PyBindGen? If so how can I get the suitable version for enabling Python Binding?
I would appreciate if there is someone who can help me figure it out. Many thanks.

According to the Google Group
Here is the resolution(tested it worked):
follow the instruction
hg clone http://code.nsnam.org/ns-3-allinone
cd ns-3-allinone && ./download.py
This will solve the Python Binding problem
Updated: after downloading this version of ns3. Solving the python binding problem. Then there will be another problem after running
./waf configure
it will show the result like this:
PyViz visualizer: not enabled (Missing python modules: gtk, goocanvas, pygraphviz)
Even though I have installed all of the three dependencies. So after some researches I found that there has another questions post So there is a guy gave the guessing that
" Waf found the standard Python here (/usr/bin/python is the Apple path), and you installed the python libraries using MacPorts.
Most probably you'll need to configure Python to point to the MacPort-based Python, or it will not see what you installed."
So according to How to: Macports select python
here is the solution:
port select --list python
sudo port select --set python python27
Hope it will help anyone come afterwards to use this.

I'm in need of running some old wx stuff with python in 32-bit mode (arch -i386 python wx.py) under brewed python, macOS 10.12 will just give
arch -i386 python
arch: posix_spawnp: python: Bad CPU type in executable
What's the easiest way forward?
the macOS pre-installed one still works and I got the brew libraries working by symlinks (there is probably a better approach)
sudo ln -s /usr/local/Cellar/wxpython/... /Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/wx
arch -i386 /System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/bin/python
but I'd prefer an approach where I can rely on brew and pip
I hope I'm just missing out on something obvious on how to get --universal support back using brew.
--universal has been deprecated in Homebrew 1.1.8 and slowly removed from existing formulae since. The reason behind is that "macOS has been 64-bit only since 10.6". You thus can’t rely on Homebrew for this.
I am using a virtualenv for a django setup. I am trying to build a view that pulls data from logs and then graphs the data. Eventually I would like to have this real-time and live.

I have attempted to install matplotlib from pip using pip install matplotlib.
I receive the following message:
* The following required packages can not be built:
* freetype
I then validated that it was installed
yum install freetype
Package freetype-2.3.11-14.el6_3.1.x86_64 already installed and latest version
I then found that there is a python-matplotlib which is an older version .99. However, I want to keep this inside of the virtual environment and not system wide.
find / -name *freetype*
/var/lib/yum/yumdb/f/d2807dcfe3762c0b9f8ef1d9bf0f05788e73282a-freetype-2.3.11-14.el6_3.1- x86_64
/usr/lib64/libfreetype.so.6.3.22
/usr/lib64/libfreetype.so.6
/usr/share/doc/freetype-2.3.11
I searched all over stackoverflow and only saw solutions for ubuntu which did not transfer over to centos.
Thank you for your time,
John
pip is going to compile matlibplot on your local machine, so you'll need freetype development headers installed as well.
CentOS 6+, Fedora, etc.:
$ sudo yum -y install freetype freetype-devel libpng-devel
On older operating systems (e.g. CentOS 5), you may run into a more specific freetype versioning issue with newer releases of matlibplot. If you're version agnostic, sticking with a legacy 1.3.x release will negate these dependency issues:
$ pip install matplotlib==1.3.1
Please note, you may need to downgrade your numpy to 1.8 in order to make matplotlib 1.3 work.
$ pip install numpy==1.8
Good luck!
I have just had a similar (albeit not exactly the same) situation. I'll write it up here as this page comes up among the first search results.
CentOS 5
pip install matplotlib complains about freetype
Both freetype and freetype-devel are installed.
~/.pip/pip.log provides the explanation of the problem. There is the line:
freetype: no [Requires freetype2 2.3 or later. Found 2.2.1.]
Obviously, the solution is either to upgrade freetype or downgrade matplotlib.
The second is easier (assuming I am OK with the older version).
pip install matplotlib==1.3.1 works fine.
On the matplotlib installation, this is what I did. Not sure if this is going to help you. Just followed the steps here:
http://pkgs.org/centos-6/centos-x86_64/python-matplotlib-0.99.1.2-1.el6.x86_64.rpm.html
I did not use pip, btw and have CentOS 6.4.
I had this happen to me in two different situations, see if yours is one of them:
freetype was installed, but not in the $PATH yet. Just exiting the shell and starting a new one fixed this.
I was building matplotlib from source, and trying to build from the master branch. After I switched to v1.3.x it correctly detected freetype.
I have just installed Ubuntu 12.04 which comes with Python 2.7. I have installed Python 3.3, so now I have both versions. For example, if I type python in the terminal I get version 2.7 and if I type python3.3 I get that version.
I don't see why I would need 2 versions (?) so how do I uninstall Python 2.7? And if I do so, will the "python" command then point to Python 3.3?
VERY IMPORTANT EDIT
Removing an older version of python may be very dangerous and can cause trouble in your whole system! For your case instead of removing the older python you can simply use an alias in your terminal, so that when you type python it opens python3.3;
Here is the procedure, add this line:
alias python=python3
Into~/.bash_aliases or: ~/.bashrc
Btw I guess If you ask this question in AskUbuntu you may have a quicker/better response!
You should never remove the builtin Python in your Ubuntu distribution. Bad things will happen if you do.
It is highly recommended to use virtualenv to install other Python environments.
Here's a good Stackoverflow question that demonstrates how:
Is it possible to install another version of Python to Virtualenv?
I would like to install a specific version of gdb and gcc with macports on mac os x leopard, not the last one, but the 6.8 for gdb. Is it possible?
It is possible. It's just convoluted and tedious. It's listed in the documentation these days.
Steps
Go to macports trac and find the package you're looking for. This is the link for subversion, which is the package I'll be using in the example.
Click the PortFile
Click Revision Log (top right)
Pour through the revisions until you find the version you're looking for. Remember the revision number.
In this example I'm looking for version 1.7 of subversion.
With that revision number noted. You need to checkout the version of that subdirectory at that revision.
cd /tmp
svn co http://svn.macports.org/repository/macports/trunk/dports/devel/subversion --revision 106629
Then cd into the folder and run the install
cd subversion
sudo port install
Then it should become selected by default. You can check with
sudo port installed subversion
The following ports are currently installed:
subversion #1.7.10_0 (active)
subversion #1.8.8_0
subversion #1.8.10_0
As I just came across this question when trying to figure out how to download an older version of curl, I thought I'd share an update:
The currently accepted answer did not work for me any longer. This is with MacPorts 2.2.0. What I did was the following.
I started following the directions located here. I ended up using the SVN method, since the first method didn't work. What I didn't realize is that I was missing a critical step.
I found another post that suggested moving the downloaded directory to /private/tmp. After doing this, I cd into the new directory and after a sudo port install I was able to install the older version.
I am on a Mac running OS X 10.8, so your mileage may vary.
This post is old.. but specifying a version is possible. For example I want to install ZeroMQ version 3.2.2 so I use:
sudo port install zmq #3.2.2
And it always helps to goto the MacPorts website and search to see if they have what you are looking for.
As far as I know it is not possible at all to install other versions than the exact version, unless there is a specific port for a certain version.
The only thing you could do is fetch the portfile of the desired version from the Macports subversion repository.
In your case only gdb 7.2 is available on the current version, no variants and no other versions - sorry :)
