Cython cannot be installed with python 3.5

[sunaus]

I installed aixtools.python.rte 3.5.1.1 on AIX 7.2, and I want to install Cython as well, but got the following error,

    xlc -DNDEBUG -O -I/opt/include -O2 -I/opt/buildaix/includes -I/opt/include/python3.5m -c /tmp/pip-build-bgsjy04v/Cython/Cython/Plex/Scanners.c -o build/temp.aix-7.2-3.5/tmp/pip-build-bgsjy04v/Cython/Cython/Plex/Scanners.o
    "/opt/include/python3.5m/pyport.h", line 811.2: 1506-205 (S) #error "LONG_BIT definition appears wrong for platform (bad gcc/glibc config?)."
    error: command 'xlc' failed with exit status 1

Anyone knows the solution? Thanks,

I tried to install aixtools.python.cython.0.24.1.0.I, but it is for Python 2.7 not Python 3.5

Do you have cython for python 3.5?

Thanks,

Another reason to repack python-3.* as python3-3.* (just as the command becomes python3, pip3, etc..

I won't have that all in an hour, but will try to have it ready in 24.

p.s. the solution here:

aixtools.python is packaged as a 64-bit application. You need to add the environment variable

OBJECT_MODE=64

and it will, or should, build fine.

Thanks for your response.

Still does not work with "OBJECT_MODE=64". Will wait for your package of python3-3.* and python3.cython

Cheers

I see that there is a bug in "make install" for python3 - it does not include ld_so_aix in the "install" result - unlike python2 (which worked fine, even with the newer code - Cython-0.25.1)

I have downloaded the latest python3-3.5.2 to see if that works better. Will be posting/updating a bug-report/issue if this is still not working.

[Michael]

Still not working - from source - properly for python3-3.5.X. Please follow http://bugs.python.org/issue18235 for the latest details (e.g., perhaps register and drop a note that you are impacted by this issue).

I shall look for a solution.

Thanks so much for your quick response. Appreciate it.

Just posted a "patched" version 3.5.2, and self-build now works: see: http://www.aixtools.net/index.php/python3

You are using pip version 8.1.1, however version 9.0.1 is available.
You should consider upgrading via the 'pip install --upgrade pip' command.


I will be adding an aixtools.python3.cython - asap - but you should be able to build it yourself now.

And the pre-built python3.cython is also available via http://www.aixtools.net/index.php/python3
