Can't build python2 version of plyr

[ok100]

Hi, when I try to build the module for python2 with python2 setup.py install I get the following error message:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "setup.py", line 3, in <module>
    from Cython.Distutils import build_ext
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/Cython/Distutils/__init__.py", line 2, in <module>
    from Cython.Distutils.extension import Extension
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/Cython/Distutils/extension.py", line 18, in <module>
    class Extension(_Extension.Extension):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/Cython/Distutils/extension.py", line 39, in Extension
    """
TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for +: 'NoneType' and 'str'

However, python3 version works fine.

Salve te,

I cannot reproduce the error.
Also, the error does not seem to be related to python-glyr, rather something in Cython. My guess is you have some broken cython installation or something like that.

Im running with a recent pacman -Syu, my python/cython versions:

⚡ cython -V
Cython version 0.18
⚡ cython2 -V
Cython version 0.18
⚡ python -V
Python 3.3.0
⚡ python2 -V
Python 2.7.3

Does it work for you if you try to install python2-glyr-git package from AUR?
Thanks for the quick response btw.

[sahib]

Works just fine. Checked your versions?

[ok100]

I have everything up-to-date (pacman -Syu just now).

[sahib]

Did you install Cython from pip or from pacman? When did it stop working? What are you trying exactly?

[ok100]

I have cython installed with pacman. Don't know exactly when it stopped working (I didn't update plyr for a while) but other users also reported me this issue.

[ok100]

Just noticed that it works when python2 setup.py install is run as root. Did you install the AUR package manually or with yaourt?

[sahib]

Weird.
Does it work with this?

python2 setup.py build_ext --inplace --force

It won't work for me neither when run as non-root, but it fails with a permission error, as expected.

I did not update plyr or libglyr in quite some time, so probably not my fault.

Can you post the full log?

[ok100]

Still the same error. Full log is exactly the same as in the first comment.
I'm using 32bit Arch if it makes any difference.

[sahib]

Sorry, Im clueless. I might look into it tomorrow, too late now.

Just adding: I let other people try it, and still could not reproduce the error. It might make sense to report this to the cython-devs. They might rather know what happened.
