Description

I had to follow the instructions here to get ctypes 0.9.6 to compile, might be worth adding to the readme:

Do you really have to compile ctypes on MacOS X or is there a package already?

Could you please try if ctypes-0.9.9.3 compiles (I know it's currently incompatible to python-musicbrainz2)? If not, please report it to the ctypes project.

Maybe we should create a wiki page for this kind of information. It's easier to update than INSTALL.txt, especiall after the release :-)

  • status changed from new to closed.
  • resolution set to fixed.

I started a wiki page for this package which also contains an FAQ section, see http://wiki.musicbrainz.org/PythonMusicBrainz2

The next release will contain a link to this.

ctypes 0.9.9.3 compiled fine for me and seems to be working with the latest python-musicbrainz from svn.

It did have a Mac OS X specific note in the install instructions, but it didn't appear to affect me at least:

On OS X, the segment attribute live_support must be defined. If your compiler doesn't know about it, upgrade or set the environment variable CCASFLAGS="-Dno_live_support".

Yes, it should work. python-musicbrainz2-0.2.1 has support for ctypes-0.9.9.3.

Unfortunately, the tunepimp python bindings don't (see #1171), so picard won't work.

Add/Change #1157 (ctypes doesn't compile under OS X Tiger + gcc4.0)
