Error installing fb.python

[Vislab]

I'm trying to install fb.python using "luarocks install fbpython" but during installation cmake is getting a different PythonLibs version than the required.

(other stuff not worth mentioning)

Error: Build error: Failed building.

It seems FIND_PACKAGE(PythonLibs ${PYTHON_VERSION_STRING} REQUIRED) is not finding the correct file.
I went to look if other files exists using "find /usr/lib -name 'libpython2.7.so'" and found other versions of the same file:

/usr/lib/python3.4/config-3.4m-x86_64-linux-gnu/libpython3.4m-pic.a
/usr/lib/python3.4/config-3.4m-x86_64-linux-gnu/libpython3.4.so
/usr/lib/python3.4/config-3.4m-x86_64-linux-gnu/libpython3.4m.a

/usr/lib/python2.7/config-x86_64-linux-gnu/libpython2.7.a
/usr/lib/python2.7/config-x86_64-linux-gnu/libpython2.7.so
/usr/lib/python2.7/config-x86_64-linux-gnu/libpython2.7-pic.a
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpython3.4m.a
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpython2.7.a
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpython3.4m.so.1.0
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpython2.7.so
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpython2.7.so.1.0
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpython3.4m.so.1
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpython3.4m.so
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpython2.7.so.1
/usr/lib/libpeas-1.0/loaders/libpythonloader.so
/usr/lib/libpeas-1.0/loaders/libpython3loader.so

To me this looks like a case of finding the wrong file. If so, how can I tell cmake to use a different path to search for the right file? If not, does anyone know a work-around?

PS: I'm using ubuntu 14.04 and I've updated python using anaconda to the latest version.

Any suggestion would be helpful.
Thanks

So, I went and started setting/adding paths left and right in the CMakeLists.txt file before the FIND_PACKAGE, and basically I've ended up with something like the if statement in https://github.com/facebook/fblualib/blob/master/fblualib/python/CMakeLists.txt#L35, so basically I just swapped if(APPLE) with if(UNIX) and it built nicely.

I am trying to install fb-python library -a bridge between Lua and Python:https://github.com/facebookarchive/fblualib/tree/master/fblualib/python

on my Linux machine using the command

cd fblualib/fblualib/python
luarocks make rockspec/fbpython-0.1-1.rockspec 

however all my attempts are encountering the error below:

    cmake -E make_directory build &&
    cd build &&
    cmake -DROCKS_PREFIX=/home/current_user/torch/install/lib/luarocks/rocks/fbpython/0.1-1 \
          -DROCKS_LUADIR=/home/current_user/torch/install/lib/luarocks/rocks/fbpython/0.1-1/lua \
          -DROCKS_LIBDIR=/home/current_user/torch/install/lib/luarocks/rocks/fbpython/0.1-1/lib \
          .. &&
    make

I have ensured that I install the glog library, however I keep on getting the same error. I am not sure how to overcome this hurdle. Any suggestion is appreciated. Thank you!

I'm encountering exctly the same error. I am following https://github.com/AaronJackson/vrn for fb-python installation. Has anyone handled this? Will appreciate some help. Thanks.

in the fblualib/fblualib/python folder, I tried `luarocks make rockspec/fbpython-0.1-1.rockspec` and it seems built correctly:

        cmake -E make_directory build &&
        cd build &&

        cmake -DROCKS_PREFIX=/home/wei/torch/install/lib/luarocks/rocks/fbpython/0.1-1 \
              -DROCKS_LUADIR=/home/wei/torch/install/lib/luarocks/rocks/fbpython/0.1-1/lua \
              -DROCKS_LIBDIR=/home/wei/torch/install/lib/luarocks/rocks/fbpython/0.1-1/lib \
              .. &&
        make
