py26-matplotlib-basemap @1.0.1 does not work for 2.6 but for 2.7

[barrier.nicolas@…]

Hello

I have a problem with the port py26-matplotlib-basemap @1.0.1 I had the version py26-matplotlib-basemap @1.0.1_0 and everything was working, but then I tried to do an update and it does not work anymore. Here is the beginning of what I get:

--->  Computing dependencies for python27
--->  Configuring python27
...

The problem seems to be the loading of the _geoslib.so file, which is not recognized.

I guess that if it is not working, it must be due to the fact that the update of the 2.6 version installs a 2.7 version. Is it possible to correct it?

Thanks

Can you attach the log file to this ticket, port will tell you the location of this file when it fails.

Dear ram

I cannot add the ticket, because it is seemingly working. But when I am trying to use it, it's not. But all the port process seems to be efficient, just not with the right version of python (2.7 instead of 2.6)

I don't understand, why are you using python27? The port provides a module for python26 it won't be in the path for python27? Why do you think it's using python27?

That is precisely my point. When I install the port py26-matplotlib-basemap @1.0.1, it seems to install py27 instead. But as I use py26, it is a problem

The python27 dependency is being brought is as dependency of one dependencies:

i.e. xorg-xcb-proto, py26-matplotlib-basemap itself is not using python27.

You mentioned seeing an error relating to _geoslib.so, where do you see this?

Add +python26 to your variants.conf if you want the xcb ports to use python26 as well.
