Bug #1246
Install failure 0.5.0
100%
Description
Sorry for bothering you with these problems.
I tried installing maus now and I got a fatal error. Here is the end of the file:
INFO: ok INFO: Checking import of package bitarray INFO: ok INFO: Checking import of package matplotlib Traceback (most recent call last): File "<string>", line 1, in <module> ImportError: No module named matplotlib FATAL: Failed to install python module matplotlib WARNING: MAUS already setup scons: Reading SConscript files ... Checking whether the C++ compiler worksyes Checking for C++ library json... no ERROR: Couldn't find jsoncpp. scons: Reading SConscript files ... Checking whether the C++ compiler worksyes Checking for C++ library json... no ERROR: Couldn't find jsoncpp. FAIL! See logs.x FAIL Failed to make MAUS using scons. Fatal error - aborting
Please help if you know the solution and have time. Let me know if you need more info.

Could you send me the file install.log in your build directory?

Offending lines are:
INFO: Installing matplotlib Searching for matplotlib Best match: matplotlib [unknown version] Processing matplotlib.tar.gz Running matplotlib/setup.py -q bdist_egg --dist-dir /tmp/ohansen/easy_install-CmefO6/matplotlib/egg-dist-tmp-UILxWS X connection to localhost:10.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown). basedirlist is: ['/usr/local', '/usr'] ============================================================================ BUILDING MATPLOTLIB matplotlib: 1.2.0 python: 2.7.2 (default, Mar 28 2013, 16:35:40) [GCC 4.1.2 20080704 (Red Hat 4.1.2-54)] platform: linux2 REQUIRED DEPENDENCIES numpy: 1.5.0 freetype2: 9.10.3 OPTIONAL BACKEND DEPENDENCIES libpng: 1.2.10
Two things that might be going wrong - there is a complaint about a failed X11 connection and a notification of dependencies (but with no error message). So I would check the dependencies. numpy comes prepacked with MAUS and appears to be installed correctly (there is a line like
INFO: Checking import of package numpy INFO: ok
somewhere in the log file). freetype2 I think on Scientific Linux comes in a package called "freetype" and you should check you have that installed.
If that is okay, then try forwarding X11 connections in the terminal where you are doing the install.
For comparison, there is a set of sample build logs here:

Thanks a lot, Chris.
The X11 connection was the problem. Now it finished without any error.

- Status changed from Open to Closed
- % Done changed from 0 to 100
Well, I never knew that was an issue - you live and learn. Installation instructions updated accordingly.
Cheers,
Chris
