SCons

[linux]

I'm trying to install a Python module, called PySndObj. I extracted the sources. It uses scons , so I tried to install it with it:

alex@alex-laptop:~/Desktop/SndObj$ scons pythonmodule=true ALSA=true
scons: Reading SConscript files ...
Building the Sound Object Library
Checking for Realtime IO support...
OS is Linux...
Checking for C header file alsa/asoundlib.h... (cached) yes
Checking for C header file soundcard.h... (cached) no
Checking for C header file jack/jack.h... (cached) yes
The library realtime IO (class SndRTIO) will be configured for ALSA
The library will include support for Jack (Class SndJackIO)

scons: done reading SConscript files.
scons: Building targets ...

scons: done building targets.

And then tried to find it:

alex@alex-laptop:~/Desktop/SndObj$ whereis sndobj
sndobj:

It doesn't exist. It hasn't been installed properly. Even in Python:

alex@alex-laptop:~/Desktop/SndObj$ python
Python 2.5.1 (r251:54863, Mar  7 2008, 04:10:12) 
[GCC 4.1.3 20070929 (prerelease) (Ubuntu 4.1.2-16ubuntu2)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import sndobj
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: No module named sndobj
>>>

Can someone help me, please?

I've never installed PySndObj before, nor have I used SCons, but judging by the last 3 lines of output from your build you need to run scons install .

Read the last part of the first code tag. I did run it:

alex@alex-laptop:~/Desktop/SndObj$ sudo scons install

Sorry, I missed that part. I'd suggest reading up on SCons documentation (and perhaps take a peek at the install script) if no one can help you here.

No, I haven't found a solution yet. It isn't that important to me yet, so I'll read up on SCons when I have to.

hi, in the email list of sndobj they tell me that the problem is with swig.
i try with swig but the output bring me lots of errors...

go to the list if you need.

thanks.
