Hi all

Has anybody tried to install latest pycairo with DESTDIR

While

python2 setup.py install --optimize=1 --root=$DESTDIR

works, both


python2 setup.py install_pycairo_header --root=$DESTDIR
python2 setup.py install_pkgconfig --root=$DESTDIR


fail, with


error: option --root not recognized


Is there a way to get these using $DESTDIR ?

Hi Tim,


I'm not sure on this one. I was the last one who did this upgrade, and I had to comment those lines out to get a successful build. I found that the pkg_config file and the header was installed automatically in a DESTDIR installation though:

renodr [ /sources/pycairo-1.18.2 ]$ ls install/usr/lib/pkgconfig/
py3cairo.pc  pycairo.pc

renodr [ /sources/pycairo-1.18.2 ]$ ls install/usr/include/pycairo/
py3cairo.h  pycairo.h

However, due to the fact that installing normally results in a .egg file being created and then extracted (from the way I understand it), a normal install needs those commands. Can you try a destdir install and see if those files exist in your DESTDIR?
