Failed to install PyTables


I'm trying to install PyTables using either easy_install or pip but both attempts end with the same error:

error: Command "gcc -pthread -fno-strict-aliasing -DNDEBUG -g -fwrapv -O2 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -fPIC -DNDEBUG=1 -DHAVE_LZO2_LIB=1 -DHAVE_BZ2_LIB=1 -Iblosc -I/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/numpy/core/include -I/usr/include/python2.7 -c src/H5ARRAY.c -o build/temp.linux-x86_64-2.7/src/H5ARRAY.o -Isrc -DH5_USE_16_API" failed with exit status 1

I have all dependencies installed.

  • Found numexpr 1.4.2 package installed.
  • Found Cython 0.14.1 package installed.
  • Found HDF5 headers at /usr/include, library at /usr/lib.
  • Found LZO 2 headers at /usr/include, library at /usr/lib.
  • Skipping detection of LZO 1 since LZO 2 has already been found.
  • Found bzip2 headers at /usr/local/include, library at /usr/local/lib.

but there is still a warning:

.. WARNING:: Could not find the bzip2 runtime. The bzip2 shared library was *not* found in the default library paths. In case of runtime problems, please remember to install it.

Is it possible that this warning prevents successfully installing PyTables?


Solution

  • try to add this:
