I'm wondering how to install pybluez library in a Python virtual environment (Linux Ubuntu / Pop! OS).
The problem is simple: there's no bluetooth.h header in the virtual environment, so it fails during installation.
In real environment there's a series of libraries to install to do the work, but I'm unable to do the same in a virtual environment.
You will need to have the bluetooth.h file and the bluez development files available on the system at all (headers and system libraries are never in virtualenvs anyway).
On Ubuntu, apt install libbluetooth-dev should probably do the trick.
I want to ask to myself cause the problem was really singular and I think that someone else could be involved: the problem is that PyCharm IDE was installed through flatpack. So (I don't know the details cause I'm not an expert about this package format) the program run in a sort of vm and it's unable to recognize libraries under the "real" system. Imho this kind of software (ide I mean) should be inatalled directly with a "classic".deb package to avoid problems like this.

I am in need of working with a specific version of the text editor Lyx, the 1.3.3, on a CentOS 7 environment. I found the .rpm package and some sort of source code, but as it's a very old software, many library are obsolete and cannot be found when installing from the rpm file and for some reasons no c++ compiler I used seems to be good to compile the source code.
Now my question: I do have a CentOS virtual machine with this specific version of Lyx installed properly. Is there a way to "clone" or somehow copy it into my CentOS main partition? Or, if this is too barbaric, how can I extract/install from the VM CentOS the libraries I need?
I apologize if my question doesn't make much sense, I am by no means an expert of Linux distros and I might have some misconceptions brought over from Windows.
I have installed WinPython and want to use Spyder. I use pip and virtual environments. I have followed the instructions here modular approach. Everything works just dandy until the very last instruction "Start a new IPython console (in Spyder). All packages installed in your venv environment should be available there.".
It get error Your Python environment or installation doesn't have the spyder‑kernels module or the right version of it installed (>= 1.9.0 and < 1.10.0). Without this module is not possible for Spyder to create a console for you.
But I installed spyder-kernals in my venv, I can literally see them there, I set the path the the python installed in the venv, everything should work, but it doesn't!
Any thoughts?
I asked CAM Gerlach as suggested, and he spotted my error very quickly. The instructions at modular approach are correct except they say pip install spyder-kernels==0.* which I took literally. In fact as per the error message you need to use later versions, so I used pip install spyder-kernels==1.10 and it fixed it.
You may have to ask to "C.A.M. Gerlach" if he has an update on the procedure: Spyder has evolved a bit with Spyder-4.
I need to install SUMO 0.30.0 to be used with the VEINS_INET subproject in veins 4.6. I have tried following the instructions here and suggestions from forums but haven't had any luck being able to install sumo. I run ./configure (trying various tool/library options) then run sudo make but all I get is target marouter failed or nothing to be done for 'install-exec-am' 'install-data-am'.
Does anyone know how to install sumo-0.30.0 from source and/or make the veins_inet subproject work with the latest version of sumo-0.32.0?
Don't run sudo make.
Don't run sudo make.
Your problem is probably related to a dependency/packaging change in 16.04, which is explicitly pointed out in the veins tutorial:
Note that Ubuntu 16.04 no longer includes libproj0; this can be worked around by temporarily adding the packet repository of, e.g., Ubuntu Vivid when installing this package.
Short answer: Unfortunately this means that long-term, you're going to either have to package SUMO yourself, use the versions someone else compiled (see this launchpad for example) or rely on an old version.
Long answer:
In general, I would recommend building SUMO from source by building its' dependencies from source, since I've encountered this problem on various distributions. In particular, the fox, proj and gdal libraries tend to be packaged in different versions, and along with changes in the SUMO source code. I currently use this script (with the package versions downloaded) to compile SUMO -- but this is for 0.30.0, and it breaks if any of the referenced source packages are moved (which happens quite often). My general recommendation would be to either use a completely isolated version of SUMO (i.e., compiling by hand as much as possible) or relying on a pre-packaged version (see above), as long as that version is recent enough to work with VEINS.
I'm a RHEL newbie. I'm used to a non-Linux Unix, which has a fundamentally different way of dealing with packages.
I want to install ipython for a user on a vanilla RHEL7 system with yum as the package manager.
"yum install python" was fairly straightforward, but given that I'm new to the OS and I don't completely understand what ipython is, I am stumped as to how to proceed.
"yum install ipython" obviously doesn't work and every possible solution seems to require the installation of something else that I don't know how to install in a reasonable manner.
I am trying to keep things as generic as possible so it will be obvious how to update/remove software in the future, so anything that can be done with yum, would be probably preferable.
Installation instructions refer to pip, which I don't have. I possibly need setuptools to run pip, but I can't figure out the appropriate way to get that either. Maybe I can get one or either by installation the EPEL bundle of packages, but I can't find those for RHEL7, at least not in a way that doesn't seem like a "download and install this random file, trust us" method, which seems irresponsible.
Another option is anaconda. Again, there doesn't seem to be a yum-related way to install this, and anaconda itself is only a means to an end to download ipython, so that'd be two levels of abstraction away from the goal.
Additionally, do I even want "ipython" these days, or do I want "jupyter"?
All I care about is that the user should be able to type in "ipython" at the prompt and get the thing he is expecting.
Also, the python installed by yum is 2.7.5-48.el7, which does not seem to be current. I don't care about using the current version unless that prevents me from successfully installing ipython in some other manner, but I thought it might be relevant.
Any suggestions for how to install this thing is the most easily maintainable way? Do I not want the yum version of python?
Thanks for your patience.
Install python-pip from EPEL repository first ( https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL - it's compatible with all Red Hat entrprise Linux distros - be it CentOS, RHEL, Oracl, ScientificLinux or whatever), (or if you don't trust EPEL repo providers you can use get-pip.py ( https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py ) script, but then you have to trust its providers instead) then install via
pip install ipython
I am getting a bunch of compile errors when I try to install the MySQL DBD::mysql Perl library. I am trying to install this library on OpenSuse linux (SUSE Linux Enterprise server 10 (x86_64) version 10, patch level 4)
The install fails when trying to compile dbdimp.h. There are hundreds of complile errors but I have reason to believe they all stem from the first 3:
dbdimp.h:23:49: error: mysql.h: No such file or directory
dbdimp.h:24:45: error: mysqld_error.h: No such file or directory
dbdimp.h:26:49: error: errmsg.h: No such file or directory
I believe that the reason I am getting the errors above is that I have no MySql Client installed. I do not know how to install mysql client (I believe I am supposed to get some version of libmysqlclient).
I am brand new to opensuse and vaguely familar with installing packages on Linux in general have used yum, yast, apt-get on ubuntu + centOS previously but the only package manager tools that seem to be on OpenSuse 10 are rpm and zypper. I have not managed to install the required mysql client using either of these. If anyone knows how to install MySql Client to resolve my issue I would greatly appreciate any recomendations
Thanks
You need to install MySQL or the MySQL client libraries, either through your system's package manager or by following the installation instructions from the source code.
It sounds like your question is really "How do I install MySQL on OpenSuse", which would be more appropriate for one of the other StackExchange sites.
I was able to resolve this to a point. In my original question, I stated that I had tried using YAST but that it had not worked. In fact, I did not fully explore the YAST install option but when I did, I managed to download install the required librarys by following an article I found (http://adminramble.com/install-mysql-yast/#chitika_close_button)
I was able to open the YAST GUI in the terminal window (not an X-window display) and navigate through the "software management" section wherein I was able to do a search for MySql. Amoung the search results were mysql client libraries, which I then selected and hit "Accept". The installation started and completed successully.
In order to complile the PERL DBD::mysql module, I had to create a new makefile with the ccflags specified so that the header files could be found:
perl Makefile.PL --cflags -I/usr/include/mysql
I say "to a point" at the top of this comment because I then ran into further problems compiling but my original issue posted has been partially resolved and getting this far may help someone else who is experiencing the same problem. Will update if I get a solution to the compile problem.
