Pyspades on Ubuntu

[matpow2]

You need at least Cython 0.15.1 to build pyspades. It seems like you're using an old version. Uninstall the one you have now COMPLETELY, then run "python -m easy_install cython".

Hit the same problem when I was setting up PySpades on my Ubuntu server last night.
It seems that, for some people, Cython and Easy_Install just don't mix at-all.
There were other ways to get easy_install to work with Cython, but I find manually installing it was just easier:

1) Get the release from cython.org/release/Cython-0.16.tar.gz
2) Extract it somewhere, then navigate in
3) Run the following command:

Code: Select all

python setup.py install

4) CD to whereever you have pyspades and build it

After that, you should be fine. You'll likely still get some errors when building pyspades, but I'm assuming they're (mostly) ignorable - I'm yet to see any problems with my server.

I just use "pip install cython", and I'm done. You need python-pip, though.

I suggest you go and look at this documentation:

This will help a lot

It's already been established that he has, and the problem is with the fact that he can't fetch cython through easy_install. Re-reading documentation won't help if the process it uses dosn't work. Fair enough, it should work - and does for most people - but I'd suggest you read the rest of the thread before resorting to a generic reply.

EDIT: And, it's worth noting that I got the exact same error as Ender is getting - a resolution is to just install it manually instead of using easy_install. It's not just a one-off "it's your fault" kind of thing.
