Problem installing Python bindings into virtualenv with pip on Ubuntu 12.04

[Fabian Büchler]

Hello,

I'm experiencing problems installing the Mapnik Python bindings into a virtualenv using pip on Ubuntu 12.04.

It works if I just install python-mapnik via apt-get and use the --system-site-packages option when creating the virtualenv.

$ sudo apt-get install python-mapnik 

$ mkvirtualenv --system-site-packages mapniktest 

(mapniktest)$ python

>>> import mapnik 

>>> # works

That's usually not what you want to do with virtualenvs, however.

Without the system site packages, I tried installing the bindings via pip:

$ mkvirtualenv --no-site-packages mapniktest 

(mapniktest)$ pip install mapnik2

That fails with the following error:

cc1plus: warning: command line option ‘-Wstrict-prototypes’ is valid for Ada/C/ObjC but not for C++ [enabled by default]

/usr/include/mapnik/marker_cache.hpp: In function ‘void {anonymous}::set_marker_type(mapnik::markers_symbolizer&, const string&)’:

/usr/include/mapnik/marker_cache.hpp:57:17: error: invalid use of non-static data member ‘mapnik::marker_cache::known_svg_prefix_’

cpp/mapnik_markers_symbolizer.cpp:57:42: error: from this location

cpp/mapnik_markers_symbolizer.cpp:61:42: error: from this location

error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1

 

I did follow the UbuntuInstallationGuide in the mapnik wiki and installed both mapnik2.1.0 and boost PPAs.

Also, I installed all the libboost-* packages, the libmapnik-(dev) and mapnik-utils.

Do you have any advice for me on the issue?

Also, which code is current for the python bindings now?

https://github.com/mapnik/pymapnik2 or

https://github.com/mapnik/mapnik/tree/master/bindings/python

The one on PyPI seems to be from pymapnik2...

Thanks and BR,

Fabian

Same error there. I have Ubuntu 13.04 and there is no mapnik 2.1 ppa for raring. So 2.2 version is installed.

There is no problem on mac ox with brew install mapnik 2.1. and boost. 

Looks like pypi package is strongly tied to mapnik version and https://github.com/mapnik/pymapnik2/ is slightly outdated

Mapnik does not officially support virtualenv yet. You may be interested in following:
