Mnemosyne-2.4 install issue on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS

[jum...@gmail.com]

Hi,

I am having difficulties upgrading to the latest version of Mnemosyne.

Upon running > sudo python3 setup.py install

I get >

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "setup.py", line 2, in <module>
from setuptools import setup, Command
ImportError: No module named 'setuptools'

I appear to have setuptools as shown by >

sudo apt-get install python3-setuptools
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
python3-setuptools is already the newest version.
0 to upgrade, 0 to newly install, 0 to remove and 22 not to upgrade.

Not sure what I'm missing here, I'd appreciate any ideas.

Thanks,

Damian.

Hi,

This seems like an issue specific to your version of Ubuntu.

What happens if you upgrade setuptools outside of Ubuntu's packaging system:

sudo pip3 install --upgrade setuptools

Cheers,

Peter

Hi Peter,

Thanks for the quick reply.

I discovered I had pip for Python 2.7 and not Python 3. I rectified this successfully with;

sudo apt-get -y install python3-pip

Alas, I am still getting this;

sudo python3 setup.py install

Traceback (most recent call last):

from setuptools import setup, Command
ImportError: No module named 'setuptools'

Apologies, I'm a bit out of my depth here, any other ideas?

Thanks again,

Damian.

Hi,

This is not really a Mnemosyne issue, but there must be something wrong with your setuptools install...

If you start 'python3', and then type ' from setuptools import setup, Command', what happens?

Perhaps you have a different python interpreter in your path where setuptools is not installed, perhaps from some virtualenv?

Does 'which python3' give you the path you expect?

I'm also nearing the end of my line here, so if this doesn't work, perhaps it's best to ask help on a Ubuntu forum?

BTW, there have been reports of successful installs on later Ubuntu versions.

Good luck!

Peter

Hi Peter,

I've made progress and have now been able to successfully install v2.4. However, when I execute it I get this error message and the app doesn't open.

Got any more ideas?

Hi,

Try 'sudo pip3 install pillow'

Cheers,

Peter

Hi Peter,

Thanks for all your help. That did the trick and I was finally able to upgrade to 2.4. I will update my group post. 

Best regards, 

Damian.

Summary info for getting Mnemosyne 2.4 to work in Ubuntu 14.04 LTS

Python v3.5 is not currently available in the repos (using apt-get) for Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, you need to download and compile the source code from python.org. (You can check the current version in the repos prior to the installation of any package using apt-cache policy <package name>).

Before compiling the Python source code, install the following;

sudo apt-get install -y make build-essential libssl-dev zlib1g-dev libbz2-dev libreadline-dev libsqlite3-dev wget curl llvm libncurses5-dev libncursesw5-dev xz-utils

Compile Python v3.5 and verify with python3 -V.

Install pip (a tool for installing and managing Python packages);

wget https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py -O - | sudo python3

Check pip corresponds to your version of Python;

pip3 --version

Install setuptools with;

wget https://bootstrap.pypa.io/ez_setup.py -O - | sudo python3

Install PyQt5 with;

sudo pip3 install PyQt5

Install pillow with:

sudo pip3 install pillow

Installing the other dependencies was quite straightforward so I have not detailed them here.

Good luck!

Damian.
