Installing in a virtual environment

graph-tool
1

Hi all,
I've tried to install graph-tool inside a virtual environment in
multiple ways now, e.g.

1. pip install graph-tool
2. pip install http://downloads.skewed.de/graph-tool/graph-tool-2.2.15.tar.bz2
3. easy_install graph-tool
4. Running "configure-make-make install" from source

The first three failed basically because there's no setup.py and the
fourth one failed because it couldn't find numpy (which is already
installed in the virtual environment). I could do a system-wide
installation, but that's not what I want. Have you guys successfully
installed graph-tool inside a virtual environment?
Best,

Hi Hector,

Sorry for the delay.

The first three approaches failed because graph-tool uses autotools
instead of python's distutils. The fourth approach should work
automatically, if all the libraries are found in the standard places. If
the script did not find numpy, this means you probably need to specify
exactly where it is. You should provide the exact output of the
configure script, together with the file config.log, so we can see
exactly what is happening.
