This package allows users to package python modules without creating package Makefiles for each individual module and their dependencies. It provides a way making packaging python packages faster and may also facilitate the process of developing Makefiles for new python packages
This is a raw DEVEL only package. Using it may entail a lot of implementation details and you may need to resolve target dependencies and package details on your own
Why should it be so
Pip will handle dependency requirements of python modules, but external dependencies like c libraries has to be prepared by the build system. The issue is that there is currently no way to express such dependencies, thus may cause build failure, e.g. pycrypto requires the presence of libgmp to build successfully.
If something goes wrong, we can add additional arguments to pip command line to check the detailed build process. Some useful arguments may be
tornado (python-only module)
CONFIG_PACKAGE_python-packages=y
CONFIG_PACKAGE_python-packages-list="tornado==4.4.2"
cryptography (requires installation of host modules and cleanup on target modules)
CONFIG_PACKAGE_python-packages=y
CONFIG_PACKAGE_python-packages-list-host="cffi"
CONFIG_PACKAGE_python-packages-list="cryptography"
CONFIG_PACKAGE_python-packages-list-cleanup="setuptools"
pycrypto 2.7a1 (python module with autoconf configure script; depends on libgmp; broken wmmintrin.h). 2.6.1 does not work because of a flaw in the setup.py hardcoding host include directory
CONFIG_PACKAGE_libgmp=y
CONFIG_PACKAGE_python-packages=y
CONFIG_PACKAGE_python-packages-list="https://github.com/dlitz/pycrypto/archive/v2.7a1.tar.gz"
CONFIG_PACKAGE_python-packages-envs="ac_cv_header_wmmintrin_h=no build_alias=$(GNU_HOST_NAME) host_alias=$(GNU_TARGET_NAME) target_alias=$(GNU_TARGET_NAME)"
CONFIG_PACKAGE_python-packages-extra-deps="libgmp.so.10"
