Description

Even after 85a0db24f32351f6096cd8282f03ad5c2f4e6ef5, build still fails with sip 4.19.1 and pyqt4 4.12

Build of 2.14 succeeds, but has the same error at runtime, causing python support to be disabled.

History

#1 Updated by Shai Efrati over 7 years ago

More details and a workaround were published here: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/qgis/ but Python support is still an issue.

#2 Updated by Doug Newgard over 7 years ago

Fedora has a patch that works: https://src.fedoraproject.org/cgit/rpms/qgis.git/plain/qgis_sip-ftbfs.patch

Second part has already been applied.

#3 Updated by Giovanni Manghi over 7 years ago

  • Regression? set to No
  • Easy fix? set to No

#4 Updated by Alexei Ardyakov over 7 years ago

The patch doesn't work for me:

I tried to build 2.18.6 and 2.18.7, tried different thread count in MAKEFLAGS, with the same result.

#5 Updated by Alexei Ardyakov over 7 years ago

It turned out in my case segfault was caused by obsolete Arch Linux package kdebindings-python2. After removing it, QGIS compiles and runs well, so my report is probably unrelated to the main issue.

#6 Updated by Doug Newgard over 7 years ago

  • Status changed from Open to Closed

It appears that sip (or related packages) 4.19.3 fixed this

#7 Updated by Jürgen Fischer over 7 years ago

  • Description updated (diff)

#8 Updated by marisn - over 7 years ago

  • Status changed from Closed to Reopened
  • Operating System deleted (Arch Linux)

Sorry, it is not fixed by sip/PyQt upgrade. There is still necessity to also remove one line from qgscoordinatetransform.sip file (as suggested by Arch users).
python/core/qgscoordinatetransform.sip delete/uncomment 18th line: "extern PyObject *sipExportedExceptions__core2;"
Only then 2.18.10 (bd1f9bf93e) compiles with:
dev-python/sip-4.19.3
dev-python/PyQt4-4.12.1

#9 Updated by Doug Newgard over 7 years ago

  • Status changed from Reopened to Closed

Which is a completely different issue
